Agrawal developed mechanical AgVa Ventilator in collaboration with Indian scientist Diwakar Vaish of A-SET Robotics.[29][30][31][32] During the COVID-19 pandemic, more than 10,000 ventilators were manufactured and sold to various public and private hospitals across the Indian subcontinent.[33]

Agrawal has been instrumental in setting up the most advanced Neurotrauma center in India (JPNATC). He equipped the department with India's first Intraoperative spine CT (O-arm) and portable CT scanner, which has benefited more than 20000 patients till now.[34][35][36]
