Fiber Optic Airway for Digital Hospital Supply Closet

grabcad

The Berman Airway is a vital fiber optic tool used by healthcare professionals to facilitate airway management, inserting tubes and scopes. It's just one example of the potential contents of a Digital Hospital Supply Closet. This virtual library, accessible worldwide, would store digital blueprints for basic plastic medical supplies - including fiber optic airways, umbilical cord clamps, casts, splints, dental equipment and more. By bypassing physical shipping, these resources could be printed on-site, benefiting impoverished communities or those affected by customs blockages. Moreover, these designs can be customized to individual patient needs. As CAD designers contribute to the Digital Supply Closet, we can empower anyone with a 3D printer to produce life-changing medical devices.
