According to the Federal Statistical Office about seven million people with a disability live in Germany. At the REHACARE in Duesseldorf, the trade fair for people with a disability every year developers present new products that are aimed to make the lives of people with disabilities a little easier. Including many technical aids that allow them to do different sports. According to a recent study the interest in disabled sports is increasing constantly - not only due to the recent German success at the Paralympic Games in Vancouver. Therefore it is no surprise that at the first Mobicup - a actionday of sports for the disabled - a lot was going on.
Each year in Germany between 400 and 550 people fall victim to fires. Interestingly, in most cases the actual cause of death is not the blaze itself but smoke inhalation. Two minutes of exposure to thick smoke can result in such serious lung damage that oxygen no longer reaches vital organs in sufficient quantities. Now a new mobile heart-lung machine might help to save lives in situations like these.
