As the second wave of Covid-19 wreaked havoc across the country, lack of oxygen triggered a major crisis. To solve this problem, the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT), Kanpur, has created a 'Swasa Oxyrise' bottle which increases the oxygen level in a human body. This unique device can be carried anywhere with great ease and can meet the need of oxygen in case of a medical emergency. It has been made at IIT Kanpur Incubation Centre and is a portable oxygen canister.

Sandeep Patil, an IIT Kanpur alumnus and Director of E-Spin Nanotech, told IANS, "In view of the Covid-19 crisis in the country, E-Spin Nanotech has created 'Swasa Oxyrise'. It increases the oxygen flow inside the body. To fulfil the requirement of oxygen during the second wave of Covid-19, this device has been made at IIT Kanpur Incubation Centre. It has been created during the ongoing pandemic by E-Spin Nanotech and Jasolab. It can prove to be very effective during medical emergency. But it cannot be used in case of critically ill patients."
