The Design

About Esc Contenedor de Transporte de Jeringas

La Cápsula de Emergencia para Jeringas Esc permite a los cuidadores durante campañas de vacunación preparar con anticipación hasta diez jeringas precargadas para su distribución. El Esc proporcionará un ambiente controlado con la ayuda de un paquete frío que cambia de color hasta por cinco horas. También puede ser utilizado por equipos de respuesta ante emergencias durante una crisis o diversas circunstancias especiales. El diseño es intuitivo y se basa en señales visuales para facilitar las interacciones entre los cuidadores.

Behind the Design

Press Kit

Credits, team members and technical details provided by the designer.

Unique Properties: Under special conditions, there can be a need to distribute prefilled syringes to caregivers. The Emergency Syringe Capsule provides protection and a temperature-controlled environment for ten syringes. A color-changing cold pack offers visual cues to assess the internal temperature of the capsule quickly. The ESC also includes various security features to alert users of potential tampering. The ESC makes it possible to centralize the storage and distribution of vaccines during immunization campaigns.
Dimensions & Packaging: 200 mm x 125 mm x 58 mm (7.87 in X 4.92 in X 2.28 in).
130g with ten filled syringes (0.29 lbs).
Tags: vaccine, syringe, cold, pack
Production Technology: - Nontoxic color-changing cold pack indicating syringes temperature.
- Protection from UV rays and light.
- Does not require a power source or additional temperature monitoring device.
- Replaceable parts.
- Compact, stackable, can be stored vertically (for specific medication requirements).
- Standoffs prevent heat transfer when placed on warm surfaces.
Design Challenge: The main challenge was to offer a solution that would be useful for a wide variety of users.
•Emergency response teams
•Search and rescue
•Red Cross
•World Health Organization
•Medical transport services
•Hospitals (during surgeries or for emergency purposes)
•Research facilities
•Immunization campaigns
Inspiration: This project was inspired by my personal experience when receiving vaccines. The caregiver had to manipulate various vials and fill syringes one by one. A possible gain in efficiency could be achieved in the case of vaccination campaigns. Preparation of syringes could be centralized and prefilled kits distributed to caregivers.
Project Duration: This project was designed from December 2021 thru January 2022 in Sainte Therese, Quebec, Canada.
Operation Flow: A color-changing cold pack offers visual cues to assess the internal temperature of the capsule quickly. This feature ensures the syringes will stay at a safe temperature for up to 5 hours. The ESC also includes various security features to alert users of potential tampering. The syringe's locations are identified numerically and by colors making communication between caregivers easier.
