Guangzhou, China — Guangzhou Yikang Medical Technology Co., Ltd. (EMK) has recently achieved significant progress in the field of conservative treatment for chest wall deformities. Its independently developed dual-vacuum bell therapy, combined with an intelligent orthotic management system, has produced preliminary yet remarkable clinical results in several pediatric patients with bilateral Pectus Excavatum. This innovation offers a more precise and effective non-surgical pathway for patients with complex funnel chest conditions.
In October 2024, a child was brought to medical attention after parents noticed significant depressions on both sides of the rib cage, which progressively worsened. The child was diagnosed with bilateral Pectus Excavatum by the Department of Thoracic Surgery at Guangdong Maternal and Child Health Hospital. Physicians recommended conservative treatment.
The family initially tried standard over‑the‑counter vacuum bells, but encountered frequent air leakage, size mismatch, and complex operation. After three months, no visible improvement was observed.
In January 2025, the child was referred to EMK for evaluation and personalized treatment. EMK developed a custom dual-vacuum bell therapy plan:
3D chest reconstruction based on scan data
Custom‑designed dual vacuum bells tailored to the patient's anatomy
Smart constant pressure device + remote monitoring mini‑program
This approach fundamentally addressed the limitations of generic devices in fit and operational efficiency.
According to records from the EMK Chest Wall Orthotic Management System (doctor portal), after five months of treatment:
Average treatment pressure increased from 8 kPa to 15 kPa
Average daily wear time: 144 minutes
Follow‑up measurements showed marked chest contour improvement:
| Measurement | Before Treatment | After 5 Months | Improvement |
|---|---|---|---|
| Left Depression Area | |||
| – Transverse diameter | 61.03 mm | 43.90 mm | ↓ 17.13 mm |
| – Longitudinal diameter | 61.54 mm | 58.13 mm | ↓ 3.41 mm |
| – Depression depth | 8.02 mm | 5.66 mm | ↓ 2.36 mm |
| Right Depression Area | |||
| – Transverse diameter | 74.04 mm | 62.70 mm | ↓ 11.34 mm |
| – Longitudinal diameter | 74.88 mm | 66.78 mm | ↓ 8.10 mm |
| – Depression depth | 10.56 mm | 7.94 mm | ↓ 2.62 mm |
This case demonstrates that EMK's dual‑vacuum bell customization therapy delivers quantifiable, trackable, and reproducible corrective outcomes — particularly valuable for patients with complex chest wall anatomy or those who have not responded well to conventional methods.
EMK's newly introduced dual‑vacuum bell therapy achieves deep integration of personalization and intelligence, forming a more scientific, safe, and convenient non‑surgical correction system for chest wall deformities — especially suited for complex bilateral pectus excavatum.
Key technical features include:
| Feature | Description |
|---|---|
| 1. Precision 3D Modeling & Customized Treatment | Reconstructs the patient's chest model using 3D scan or CT data. Dual vacuum bells are custom‑designed based on the morphological differences between left and right depressions, enabling simultaneous bilateral fit and correction — significantly improving treatment efficiency and stability. |
| 2. Smart Constant Pressure Control System | Built‑in high‑sensitivity pressure monitoring module automatically detects suction status and rapidly compensates for pressure drops caused by air leakage, maintaining stable therapeutic pressure and minimizing efficacy fluctuations. |
| 3. Smart Pressure Ramp Algorithm | Segmented pressure control with differentiated ramp‑up rates across pressure ranges achieves gradual negative pressure increase, effectively reducing initial discomfort and improving treatment compliance — ideal for children and sensitive patients. |
| 4. Personalized Pressure Protection | Maximum treatment pressure can be individually set according to patient age, body type, and chest structure, preventing over‑pressurization risks and ensuring dynamic balance between efficacy and safety. |
| 5. Smart Data Storage & Bluetooth Sync | Supports real‑time data upload via Bluetooth; automatically stores data locally when offline and seamlessly synchronizes upon reconnection — ensuring data continuity and integrity for long‑term tracking and evaluation. |
| 6. Remote Monitoring via WeChat | Parents can track their child's usage duration, pressure levels, and treatment trends in real time through a WeChat Mini Program. Data can be shared with physicians or other family members, enabling remote treatment adjustments and collaborative care. |
As a leading innovator in non‑surgical treatment for chest wall deformities in China, Guangzhou Yikang Medical Technology Co., Ltd. (EMK) has leveraged continuous investment in 3D orthotics, intelligent negative pressure systems, and rehabilitation monitoring platforms to successfully build an integrated closed‑loop system encompassing:
Diagnosis → Customization → Treatment → Monitoring → Management
The personalized dual‑vacuum bell therapy not only brings new hope to children with complex pectus excavatum but also provides a paradigm for non‑surgical correction in the industry.
Moving forward, EMK will continue to deepen its technological research and promote the widespread clinical application of personalized and intelligent orthotic systems — benefiting more patients worldwide.
