Pectus Excavatum Vacuum Bell

The Vacuum Bell is a non‑surgical, non‑invasive device for correcting pectus excavatum. Through its professionally designed suction cup, it uses the principle of negative pressure to gently lift the chest wall, allowing the sternum to gradually return to a near‑normal position.

Main functions:

Improves the appearance of chest wall depression

Supports gradual correction of the sternum and ribs

No surgery or hospitalisation required

Can be used safely at home

Applicable age: Children and adolescents aged 1–18 years

Indications:

Mild to moderate pectus excavatum

Chest wall is flexible and not yet fully ossified

The Right Fit Makes All the Difference

Choosing the right size = faster, more effective results

EMK offers the world's most advanced vacuum bell selection — tailored to every unique case of pectus excavatum.

3D-Printed Personalized Customization

Based on the patient's 3D scan or CT data, we reconstruct a precise chest model and design the vacuum bell's structure and contact surface according to individual depression patterns. This achieves true one-to-one customization, significantly improving treatment efficiency and fit stability.

  • Ensures precise fit over the depressed area

  • Breaks through the limitations of conventional sizing

  • Superior fit compared to traditional suction cups

  • Provides the optimal non-surgical solution for every patient

Made from food-grade silicone — soft, skin-friendly, and safe like a baby pacifier.

Smart Constant Pressure System for Consistent Results

Traditional manual vacuum bells have significant limitations:

  • Prone to air leakage

  • Require constant parental supervision and manual pressure adjustment

EMK's intelligent constant pressure system features a high-sensitivity pressure monitoring module that instantly detects suction status and automatically compensates for pressure fluctuations caused by body movement or minor air leaks — maintaining stable therapeutic negative pressure for consistent correction.

Smart Pressure Ramp Algorithm for Enhanced Comfort

Our segmented pressure control strategy applies different ramp-up rates for each pressure range, achieving gradual, gentle negative pressure increase. This effectively reduces initial discomfort and significantly improves long-term wear compliance — especially for children and sensitive users.

Personalized Pressure Protection for Safety

Treatment pressure limits can be customized based on the patient's age, body type, chest structure, and tolerance. The system automatically limits pressure to prevent over-pressurization, achieving dynamic balance between efficacy and safety.

Smart Data Management for Full-Cycle Tracking

  • Real-time data upload via Bluetooth

  • Automatic local storage when offline

  • Seamless synchronization upon reconnection

Ensures data continuity and integrity for long-term treatment tracking and evaluation.

Remote Monitoring System for Collaborative Care

Parents can track their child's usage duration, pressure levels, and treatment trends in real time through WeChat Mini Program. Data can be shared with doctors or other family members, enabling remote treatment adjustments and collaborative care.
