The present invention provides an incubator in which there is no particular need to interpose annular shaped packing, which is capable of substantially maintaining airtightness between a base frame positioned in the vicinity of an outer periphery of a service port and a service door, between the vicinity of the outer periphery of the service port and the service door. The incubator includes a substantially ring-shaped insertion groove that is formed in an inner face of the service door so as to substantially run along an outer periphery of the inner face, and a substantially ring-shaped outer peripheral portion that is formed to the base frame, and is configured such that a substantially ring-shaped leading end of the substantially ring-shaped outer peripheral portion can be inserted in a substantially ring shape into the substantially ring-shaped insertion groove.

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 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.

A neonatal incubator system includes a platform for supporting a neonate, a canopy defining an area above the platform, the canopy having at least two vertical walls extending generally perpendicularly with respect to the platform and a hood that extends above the platform. An x-ray viewing panel is provided on the hood of the canopy, wherein the x-ray viewing panel is illuminable to view x-ray film, and a light source that illuminates the x-ray viewing panel.

A patient transport incubator (PTI) suitable for MRI device having an open bore; the PTI comprises an inner volume having a first set of dimensions, adapted by means of shape and size to accommodate a patient or accommodate at least a portion of an MRI-compatible neonate's cradle, the inner volume is further covered by an envelope having a second set of dimensions, adapted by means of shape and size to be temporarily introduced within the open bore; wherein at least a portion of the envelope comprises MRI safe thermo-isolating and noise reducing foam. The invention will increase the safety and comfort of MRI scanning of neonates.

A system and method for providing a surgery table or bed adapted to encapsulate a patient to provide a sterile environment during surgery. The apparatus is configured to include an enclosure that is filled with an inert and sterile gas prior to surgery. The patient is accessed through internally extending gloves for use by the surgical staff.
