One such company is Baromedical Technology. It is a manufacturer of hyperbaric chambers - innovative medical equipment used to carry out oxygen therapy procedures. Thanks to the hyperbaric chambers, patients take in more oxygen than from the air they breathe, and undergoing the procedure regularly helps to treat carbon monoxide poisoning, neurological diseases, atherosclerosis and hypertension.

Another breakthrough Polish medical solution is an intelligent system that detects abnormalities in the respiratory system. StethoMe is based on artificial intelligence algorithms. This enables its integration with a wireless stethoscope and a special application. The equipment is used by patients at home on a daily basis and allows to detect abnormal respiratory sounds and obtain the results immediately. StethoMe is useful in diagnosing pneumonia and bronchitis, or worsening asthma symptoms. It is the result of five years of work of 60 world-class experts and scientists.

Polish companies are also leading the way in the production of neurorehabilitation devices. One of them is EGZOtech, which designed the Luna EMG robot with personalized and automated training programs for patients with significant motor deficits. It increases muscle strength and the range of movement and coordination. Built-in games that can be used during exercises help with therapy and training. The Luna EMG robot also monitors the progress of neuro-rehabilitation and orthopedic therapy, with results available in the form of reports.

Polish companies and start-ups in the medical equipment and healthcare sector are becoming increasingly desirable partners for entrepreneurs operating in other markets. They established new contacts at Expo 2020 Dubai and regularly attend Arab Health trade shows. They specialize in electro medicine and medical technology products and services, medical and health IT, diagnostic and laboratory equipment, physiotherapy and orthopedic technology, as well as disposable products.
