Every year, over a million Americans are placed on a ventilator — and kept deeply sedated through it. We're building the technology to change that: patients awake, comfortable, and recovering faster.

We imagine critical care where patients on a ventilator are awake and interactive, moving sooner, and leaving the hospital stronger — not weakened by the very care meant to save them. That future is closer than it looks. We're building it.
ICUFree is built by critical-care physicians and medical-device founders who have carried breakthrough technology from the bedside into hospitals across the country. We know how to turn a clinical insight into a device patients feel. We're doing it again — for a far bigger problem.
