</p><p>Naval Medical Center Portsmouth Staff Build Ventilator in Wake of COVID-19.  PORTSMOUTH, Va. (Apr. 24, 2020)  A team of Naval Medical Center Portsmouth's (NMCP) Anesthesiology Department staff members built a ventilator in an effort to help fight the Novel Coronavirus Disease 2019, or COVID-19, pandemic. The prototype had been tested on three specific models, including two high-fidelity lung simulators and in an animal trial using a swine model. During the command-approved animal trial, the ventilator was compared head-to-head with a conventional veterinary ventilator. It was found to provide non-inferior, if not superior, ventilation.
