About Esc Soitheach Còmhdhail Steallairean

Tha Capsul Steallairean Èiginn ESC a' leigeil le luchd-cùraim rè iomairtean banachdach suas ri deich steallairean ro-lìonta ullachadh ro-làimh airson sgaoileadh. Bheir an ESC seachad àrainneachd fo smachd le taic bho phaca fuar tionndaidh-dath airson suas ri còig uairean a thìde. Faodar a chleachdadh cuideachd le sgiobaidhean freagairt èiginn rè èiginn no ann an suidheachaidhean sònraichte eadar-dhealaichte. Tha an dealbhadh so-thuigsinn agus a' cur earbsa ann an comharran lèirsinneach gus eadar-obrachadh eadar luchd-cùraim a dhèanamh nas fhasa.

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.
