Inflatable Vest PFD with Lift

I wish there was a life jacket for people with trachs. This one sounds like the right direction. LIFT provides up to 9” of freeboard, while a typical vest only provides 3 - 4”. This reduces mouth immersions by 80%, increasing the chance of survival. Based on experience developing inflatable technology for the US Air Force and NASA, Mustang Survival developed the revolutionary Lifesaving Inflatable Flotation Technology - LIFT - inflatable cell, which can provide up to 9 inches of distance between the mouth and the surface of the water. This distance, called freeboard, decreases mouth immersions by elevating the head and chest up and out of the way of waves and swells.
