Making a positive impact on all facets of modern healthcare
Maintaining a patient's proper temperature during surgery can significantly contribute to a successful procedure and reduced recovery time. Products which help maintain a patient's temperature and blood flow affords doctors and anesthesiologists the opportunity to focus on the task at hand. With advancements being made every day in natural and synthetic biologics, temperature maintenance is increasingly important.
Potential uses for our phase change materials in the field of healthcare are wide-ranging. They could include:- Safely maintaining the temperature of organs and tissue being shipped for use in transplant surgery
- Creating refrigerators and freezers made with PCMs that maintain blood and vaccine temperatures during power outages
- Developing passively powered incubators that allow healthcare workers in Africa to test for the presence of microbials so they can identify the appropriate antibiotics for treating infections
- Incorporating into medical bandages and undergarments to assist with blood flow and organ stimulation
- Providing comfort to patients by encapsulating PCMs in hospital bedding materials
- Or, contact us with your ideas.
