From its Pittsburgh base, IngMar Medical has spent more than a quarter century building respiratory simulators and test lungs that let clinicians train on real ventilators while engineers and researchers evaluate respiratory devices. Its signature ASL 5000 breathing simulator can model patients from neonatal through adult, while the newer Aurora manikin brings that high-fidelity lung technology into hands-on ventilation training. Since 2024, IngMar Medical has been part of 3B Scientific and serves more than a thousand customer sites worldwide.

Respair, IncBorn from University of Pittsburgh clinical research, Pittsburgh-based Respair develops airway devices for ventilated patients, beginning with RelianceET, a breathing tube designed to replace the conventional inflatable cuff with soft baffles that seal the airway without added pressure. Founded by physicians Carl Snyderman and Garrett Coyan, the company brings surgeons, engineers, and entrepreneurs together to address ventilator-associated complications. Respair completed hundreds of benchtop tests and received a Phase I SBIR award from the NIH while advancing the device toward regulatory submission.PITTSBURGH, PA
iSimulateFounded from a shared insight between an anaesthetist and an intensive-care paramedic, iSimulate develops mobile clinical-education technology for realistic healthcare simulation. Launched in 2011 with an iPad-based ALS training system, the company now builds portable systems that can reproduce patient monitors, defibrillators and fetal heart-rate monitoring for training outside traditional simulation centres. iSimulate became part of the 3B Scientific Group in 2020 and continues to operate from Canberra, Australia, and Albany, New York.ALBANY, NY
