A baby incubator designed for conditions in Ghana

Pages 33-38 | Published online: 09 Jul 2009
 

Abstract

The prototype is described of a baby incubator, designed to be manufactured and used in Ghana, but of high enough quality to compete directly with imported models. A novel design is used, in which the usual all-round hood, with a sealed control unit underneath it, is replaced by a one-sided configuration, with the control system built into the back. It is much easier to manufacture, but still allows good access and temperature control.
