Vitara’s mission is to
transform neonatal care.
Vitara’s vision is to offer newborns and their families a lifetime of possibilities.
Premature Infants
Every year 15 million babies around the world are born preterm. These newborns suffer from high mortality rates and many of those that do survive suffer from lifelong ailments. Globally, premature birth is the leading cause of death in children under the age of 5.
The Problem
When a baby is born the lungs have to take over the role of the placenta, if they haven’t developed appropriately they are not ready to breathe air. This means premature infants can significantly struggle during the transition from birth.
The Vitara Solution
When a premature baby is born into the world, they’re faced with severe physiological challenges. With the help of Vitara’s technology, we hope to provide a comfortable and stable environment for the baby to acclimate outside of the womb while continuing to develop.
