Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical equipment, and in particular to a newborn transport workstation. Background Technology

[0002] A newborn refers to an infant born within one month of the umbilical cord being tied. For premature or abnormal newborns, due to medical needs, they usually need to be transferred from the delivery room to the neonatal intensive care unit for observation and treatment. Alternatively, if a newborn's condition becomes critical after birth, they need to be transferred by ambulance from a primary care hospital to a higher-level hospital. In these cases, the newborn needs to be equipped with a continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) system and placed in an incubator for protection, ensuring normal breathing during transport. During transport, nurses need to move the incubator transport station while carrying the CPAP system. However, existing incubator transport stations and CPAP systems are relatively large and cumbersome to move. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a neonatal transport workstation to support and transport an incubator and a continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) system, and both can be moved simultaneously, which can prevent nurses from falling while carrying the CPAP system.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model adopts the following technical solution: a newborn transport workstation, comprising:

[0005] An incubator transfer station is used to transfer newborn incubators. The newborn incubator is located at the top of the incubator transfer station, and a first handle is provided at one end of the incubator transfer station.

[0006] A respiratory equipment transport workstation is provided to support a respiratory life support system, which includes a pediatric continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) system, an air cylinder, and an oxygen cylinder. The workstation includes a frame, an inner support, a support assembly, and several connecting components. The inner support is located inside the frame.
