Building intubation shields to protect front line medical workers from Covid-19
Wanted to share these intubation boxes i have been making and donating to the hospitals. The day after i built the first one they used it to intubate a crashing COVID patient.
During intubation droplets containing the virus become aerosolized. The smaller liquid particles become airborne and can traverse filtration barriers. These boxes greatly improve safety for front line medical staff by creating a protective barrier at a critical time. Every one of them we keep healthy and, in the fight, improves everyone's odds.
