Author notes
Competing Interests: CPR, TNH, and CVS are among the inventors on patents on the Seattle-PAP device and
are committed to the Global Access Policy (
http://globalaccess.gatesfoundation.org/) of The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, which is directed at ensuring access to
the product and technology in very low resource settings, as in low and middle income
countries. No other authors identify any potentially competing interests. CPR, TNH,
and CVS are among the holders of patents on the Seattle-PAP device, specifically US
Patent 8499759, which is readily available online, such as through Google, and several
non-US applications and issues of the same intellectual property (IP). All are committed,
both personally and formally, to the Global Access Policy (
http://globalaccess.gatesfoundation.org/) of The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, which is directed at ensuring access to
the product and technology in very low resource settings, as in low and middle income
countries. No other authors identify any potentially competing interests. The authors
have no consultancy arrangements or products in development. The three authors who
are inventors of the patented device do not anticipate receiving any money for holding
the patents. This situation is in part the consequence of our stated and agreed-upon
commitment to the Global Access Policy of the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, which
funded the work to develop Seattle-PAP. Other patents: BROAD-BAND, LOW FREQUENCY,
