National Pediatric Surgery Congress Held in Guangzhou: EMK Unveils Night‑Use Pectus Excavatum Vacuum Bell

Guangzhou, September 25–27 — The 20th National Congress of Pediatric Surgery, organized by the Pediatric Surgery Branch of the Chinese Medical Association, was successfully held in Guangzhou. Pediatric surgeons, professors, and scholars from across the country gathered to exchange in‑depth insights on the latest advances in chest wall deformities, general pediatric surgery, and minimally invasive treatments, and to discuss standardized clinical diagnosis and innovative rehabilitation technologies.

In the exhibition area of the congress, Guangzhou Yikang Medical Technology Co., Ltd. (EMK) proudly launched its new Night‑Use Pectus Excavatum Negative Pressure Corrector — introducing a new paradigm of nocturnal non‑surgical rehabilitation for Pectus Excavatum. This device integrates intelligent pressure adjustment, infrared physiotherapy, and ultra‑quiet operation, delivering safe and effective negative pressure throughout the night. Treatment data are synchronised in real time via Bluetooth to a WeChat mini‑program, enabling remote monitoring by physicians and real‑time oversight by parents — truly achieving "recovery while you sleep."

Product Highlights

1. Intelligent Pressure Adjustment
   Programmable switching between high and low pressure ensures stable and effective negative pressure therapy throughout the night.

2. Infrared Physiotherapy
   850 nm infrared light promotes local blood circulation in the chest wall, accelerating tissue repair.

3. Quiet Operation
   Ultra‑quiet design does not disturb sleep, ensuring a comfortable therapeutic experience.

4. Smart Monitoring
   Treatment data are uploaded in real time, allowing physicians and parents to monitor wear time and efficacy trends anytime.

   
   

   

   

Experts at the congress noted that this product is expected to further enhance the comfort and standardisation of non‑surgical treatment for paediatric chest wall deformities, promoting a higher quality of home‑based rehabilitation.
