A neonate incubator for positioning a neonate within a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) device is provided. The neonate incubator can include RF shielding that can provide RF shielding during imaging, for example, while life support tubes are connected to the neonate during MRI imaging. The RF shielding can include a door to mate with a bore of the MRI device to provide the RF shielding, and a RF channel that extends along an axis that is substantially parallel to a longitudinal axis of the neonate incubator from an interior chamber of the neonate incubator through the RF shielding door.

A transport incubator includes a support structure having a base provided with at least one first guide, and a housing structure coupled with the supporting structure. The housing structure includes a first portion having at least one first side panel slidably coupled with the first guide of the base, and a second portion laterally delimited by at least one first side wall, on which the at least one first side panel of the first portion slides.

A system configured to support growth and development of a premature fetus is disclosed. Specifically, a method and apparatus configured to provide extracorporeal support for premature fetuses is disclosed.

A ventilation device installed on an infant incubator having a chamber of an infant, including: an exhaust part including an exhaust connect port connected to the chamber and an exhaust port communicated with the exhaust connect port; an air-supply part including an air-supply connect port connected to the chamber and an intake port of external air communicated with the air-supply connect port; at least one of an exhaust blower and an air-supply blower: the exhaust blower is provided at the exhaust part and generates an air stream flowing from the exhaust connect port toward the exhaust port, and the air-supply blower is provided at the air-supply part and generates an external-air stream flowing from the intake port of the external air toward the air-supply connect port: the air is exhausted from the chamber through the exhaust part, and the external air is supplied into the chamber through the air-supply part.

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.

A neonatal care system includes a base, a bassinet platform supported on the base, and a neonatal sleep device. The neonatal sleep device includes a frame structure connected to and extending upward from the bassinet platform, wherein the sling is suspended above the bassinet platform and configured to support a neonate. The neonatal care system further includes a heater configured to heat an environment surrounding the neonate supported in the sling.

A collapsible incubator for an infant, the collapsible incubator comprising: a flexible housing for containing the infant, the flexible housing being configurable between an expanded condition and a collapsed condition; a door within the flexible housing for infant access; a first end portion secured to a first end of the flexible housing; a second end portion secured to a second end of the flexible housing, said second end portion being configured to be substantially opposite said first end portion; and, at least one fastening means configured to releasably secure the first end portion to the second end portion when in the collapsed condition, whereby the first end portion and the second end portion are configured, in use, to support the flexible housing in the expanded condition, and to substantially contain the flexible housing therebetween in the collapsed condition.

The invention is a regenerative pod for premature babies.

A premature neonate closed life support system (NCLSS) including: at least one chamber confining a cradle-like neonate support (CLNS) having suitable dimensions and geometric-configuration for accommodating at least one premature neonate having at least two operational configurations, said operational configurations comprising: a first operational OPEN configuration whereby said CLNS is adapted to couple said neonate to at least one life supporting system by means of at least one life supporting coupling line, prior to positioning said CLNS in a medical device; and a second operational air-tight CLOSED configuration whereby said neonate remains continuously coupled to said at least one supporting system by means of at least one life supporting coupling line, when positioning said CLNS within said medical device. The OPEN and CLOSED configurations are reversible.
