The Problem: Disorganized Equipment in Critical Moments
Bag Valve Mask (BVM) systems are critical for emergency airway management, but they’re often stored loosely, exposed to contamination, or jumbled with other devices.
For EMTs, ER staff, and field responders, seconds matter. Yet too often, they spend precious time detangling tubing or confirming sterility, when they should be delivering life-saving ventilation.
The Solution: Oxinest™
Oxinest is a smart, compact, and protective storage solution for BVM systems.
It isn’t just a box, it’s a readiness tool.
Designed by a clinician who saw the chaos firsthand, Oxinest makes the BVM system:
🔹 Visible – Clear casing for instant identification
🔹 Protected – Maintains device integrity
🔹 Accessible – One-step retrieval when every second counts
🔹 Modular – Adapts to EMS kits, hospital crash carts, and ambulatory units
“When it’s time to act, you don’t want to think. You want to grab, deploy, and save a life.”
How Go Vertical ICM Helped
When the inventor brought Oxinest to us, it was a concept built from clinical frustration. Go Vertical’s Creation Accelerator Program (CAP) helped shape that urgency into a tangible, scalable solution.
1. Strategic Discovery & IP Planning
We performed a landscape analysis and defined Oxinest’s differentiators:
✅ Custom fit for BVM kits
✅ Compatibility with existing healthcare workflows
✅ Reusable + cleanable structure
We drafted an IP protection strategy designed for commercial readiness.
2. Design & Prototyping
Our industrial and mechanical design teams created:
- Modular storage concepts
- Ergonomic form for EMS handling
- Cleanable, durable casing structure
We explored multiple materials to ensure FDA Class I compliance and environmental impact awareness.
✅ Result: Functional low-fidelity prototypes with 2 refined design directions.
3. Regulatory & Manufacturing Roadmap
As an accessory device, Oxinest follows a general FDA pathway but still requires minimal documentation.
We provided:
- Device labeling guidance
- Design input documentation
- Supplier validation structure
What’s Next
Oxinest is moving into advanced prototyping and small-batch manufacturing.
We are also developing early field-testing partnerships with EMS and hospital units.
Goals:
- Conduct pilot testing with real-world EMS teams
- Finalize manufacturing-ready design
- Explore eco-conscious manufacturing options
From the Inventor:
“There’s nothing more frustrating than watching your team scramble for a device in an emergency. Oxinest was my solution, and Go Vertical ICM gave it structure.”
Outcomes
✅ Provisional patent filed
✅ 2 prototype iterations completed
✅ Regulatory plan in motion
✅ Field-testing strategy under development
Summary
Oxinest is the silent partner in every emergency response.
By keeping BVM systems clean, organized, and instantly accessible, it gives responders back their most precious resource: time.
With Go Vertical ICM’s support, Oxinest is on track to enter the field, and save lives, soon.
