摘要:
Disclosed is a transport incubator capable of housing and maintaining a neonate in a controlled environment while being transported for medical care. The incubator comprises straps to secure the neonate, a battery-operated heater, a fan to circulate the warmed air, a source of humidity and at least one portable oxygen bottle. Capable of being worn by a user like a backpack, the incubator is portable and is useful for transport through difficult terrain. After making contact with a designated transport vehicle, the incubator can be disengaged from the backpack and mounted to a housing platform in the transport vehicle, the platform comprising a suspension system to minimize vibrations on the neonate. It is contemplated that the incubator system can accommodate an AC-powered battery during vehicular transport of the neonate to a medical care facility. A control unit displays data relevant to the controlled environment of the incubator and the neonate.
