An incubator's closure assembly adapted to shut the aperture of a magnetic resonance imaging device (MRD) having an open bore extended along the MRD's longitudinal axis with a distal end and proximal end, the bore is terminated by the aperture located in the proximal end, into which a neonate's incubator is inserted, thereby shutting the MRD bore aperture. The closure assembly comprising at least one U-shaped conduit having (i) an array of distal and proximal sealing walls, both are substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis and having upwards and downwards directions, and (ii) a recess in between the walls having length, in upwards to downwards direction, and width, in distal to proximal direction, each of the proximal wall and the distal wall comprising a cutout at opposite directions, and wherein in the recess, the ratio of length to width is greater than a predefined value n.

An incubator of the disclosure is configured such that a top hood is detachable from a peripheral frame by unlatching first latch mechanisms that latch the top hood. The incubator is also configured such that any of wall portion among four wall portions configuring the peripheral frame are detachable from an incubator base by unlatching any of corresponding second to fifth latch mechanisms.

A device for providing phototherapy. The device has lights that emit irradiance to provide phototherapy. The lights are positionable to emit the irradiance towards a patient. An enclosure is connected to a base and supports the lights. A control module is operatively connected to the lights and controls the irradiance emitted from the lights. A non-transitory memory module is operatively connected to the control module and stores a control program. A plurality of sensors is operatively connected to the control module and are configured to sense a current position of the lights. The control program is configured to receive inputs that include at least the current position of the lights and to provide outputs to the control module based at least in part on the inputs. The control module controls the irradiance emitted from the plurality of lights based at least in part on the outputs.

An infant warming system includes a frame structure, a platform for supporting an infant that is connected to the frame structure, a radiant warmer supported on the frame structure above the platform, an ECG connection port configured to connect to ECG electrodes, and an ECG monitor housed on the frame structure, the ECG monitor receiving cardiac potentials from the ECG electrodes connected to the infant. The infant warming system further includes a control system configured to process the cardiac potentials to detect each heart beat of the infant, calculate a heart rate for the infant based on a detected heart beats, and display the heart rate on a display device associated with the infant warming system.

Systems and method for positioning a neonate within an imaging device are provided. A capsule incubator, a cart, and a docking incubator are used to move a baby between an imaging device and a incubator, such that a baby can be imagined without having to move the baby from its environment.

In a state where an incubator 3 is connected to an isolator 2 through a chamber 4 and opening/closing doors 11B and 12 are closed, a decontaminating gas G is supplied to the chamber 4 through gas supply passages 16 and 26, and an inside thereof is decontaminated (FIGS. 2(a), (b)).

Subsequently, an air is supplied into the chamber 4 through the gas supply passages 16 and 26 and initial aeration is carried out by discharging a gas in the chamber 4 through a gas discharge passage 27 (FIG. 2(b)).

Subsequently, after the opening/closing door 11B is opened, when both blowers B1 and B4 are stopped, the gas at a positive pressure in the isolator 2 is introduced into the chamber 4 (FIG. 2(c)). Thus, the gas containing the decontaminating gas G in the chamber 4 is rapidly discharged to an outside through the gas supply passages 26 and 16 and the gas discharge passage 27, and aeration in the chamber 4 is completed.

Time required for the aeration of the chamber 4 can be drastically reduced as compared with before.

A system for washing and treating infants includes components for keeping an infant under controlled sterile and warm conditions. The system also includes a device for washing the infant, which has a support frame and a flexible laminar element adapted to be secured thereto. The frame and the laminar element define a housing for receiving the infant while he/she is being washed and/or treated. The housing is adapted to be introduced into the washing and treating components and is accessible from outside. The frame has a single-unit structure composed of tubular members made of a medical-grade sterilizable metal or non-metal material.

The present disclosure relates to a transfer table assembly suitable for use in association with an MR scanner. The transfer table assembly includes a transfer table attached to a transfer table base that may releasably engage an incubator. The transfer table may be dimensionally constructed such that it may be inserted directly into an MR scanner.
