 The U.S. Air Force currently relies on pre WWII technology to carry patients during transport. But canvas sheets on wooden poles can't meet the wide variety of patient needs, including accommodating medical treatment equipment such as ventilators, defibrillators, IV pumps and monitors, which accompany critical care patients.
Under a contract with the Air Force Research Laboratory, we developed a safer, lighter and more comfortable modular patient transport system, which fully integrates 21st century life support technology.
Our technology demonstrator Modular Aeromedical Transport System safely incorporates all monitoring and treatment equipment required by critical patients. Shown are two units attached together, one with the optional medical equipment support module configured for a critical care transport. |
