Where Innovation Meets Urgency in the Fight to Prevent Death from Respiratory Emergencies
At PROcan, we are on a mission to close the critical oxygenation gap in prehospital care. Every second without oxygen increases the risk of irreversible brain damage or death — and yet, bystanders are often left without the tools they need to act.
Our solution goes beyond awareness; it is a bold new approach to empowering communities with real, immediate intervention. PROcan is a patented, portable oxygen delivery device designed to give lay responders the ability to deliver life-saving oxygen in the vital minutes before EMS arrives.
Preventing Death Through
OXYGEN ACCESS
Most medical emergencies don't kill instantly — they stop breathing. Within minutes without oxygen, the brain can suffer permanent damage.
How the Brain Responds to Oxygen Deprivation After a Medical Emergency
Hypoxia is a medical condition that occurs when the brain/tissues do not receive adequate oxygen, leading to brain damage and ultimately death if not treated.
Normal
0-2 minutes
Brain functions normally with adequate oxygen supply
HIE
4-10 minutes
Hypoxic-Ischemic Encephalopathy begins - brain damage starts
Brain Death
15 minutes
Irreversible brain damage and death occurs
So many common emergencies cause death from hypoxia: drowning, opioid overdose, cardiac arrest, choking (even after cleared).
Average EMS response time in rural areas: 7+ minutes, up to 30 minutes in rural areas.
CPR Is Not Enough
Hand's only CPR is essential but doesn't provide oxygen. Nearly 1 in 10 patients wait over 30 minutes for help to arrive.
Cardiac Arrest
Compressions circulate blood but don't oxygenate it
Opioid Overdose
Narcan reverses effects but organs still need oxygen
Drowning / Near-Drowning
Drowning is the leading cause of accidental death in children aged 1 through 4.
Chronic Lung Conditions
COPD is the fourth leading cause of death in the US.
The Oxygen Gap in Pre-Hospital Emergency Care
“If you can reach a bottle very quickly, you may be able to prevent brain inflammation and permanent damage.”
