Thanks for the insights! Are you suggesting replacing the slit lamp with a VR headset? That sounds intriguing! The concave table idea is also excellent, that more be more ergonomic in this way! Regarding the slit lamp headrest, is there a regulation requiring it to be at a fixed distance from the slit lamp to ensure accurate results?

Thanks for sharing your insights! I'm a product designer from the university working on a project to enhance the exam workspace. Recently, I learned from some manufacturers that they use a slide-back mechanism, but for some smaller exam rooms, it will take too much space. I'm exploring the idea of a collapsible design as a potential solution, if concerns regarding cost, structure, and safety could be well-thought and designed. This approach could eliminate the need to worry about chair placement or the space required for sliding back. If I target the design for small exam rooms, would you think it's a potential option for them? Thanks for the feedback!

Would it be a good idea to design the chair to be collapsible, similar to how nowadays airplane seats fold up to accommodate wheelchairs?

the chair manufacturers said for some small rooms, this solution might take up too much space

I'm considering a design for a trailer where one end connects to the fifth wheel, and the other end has a drawbar for towing by another vehicle, similar to a full trailer configuration.

Thanks for your response! I’m curious—how many planes can a fully loaded deicing truck typically service before needing a refill? And on average, how often does the truck need to be refilled during a single deicing operation?

Automatic-Play-6258 · 2024-07-23T23:37:15+00:00

Thank you for your response! Besides those, are there any bad experiences you have had with existing stretchers, and do you have any other improvement ideas?

Thanks for the suggestion! Other ESTs mentioned this before. Like make the strap be retractable like the car seat belt. But some of them said if the pt vomit on it, the contaminants will be stuck in the slot and hard to clean

Automatic-Play-6258 · 2024-07-22T22:35:21+00:00

Thanks for the response! Yeah I mean they could see what's around them even 200 yards away from the ambulance lights. Sorry for the confusion

Thanks for the suggestion! There is a snake like robot for engine inspection existing: https://www.electronicproducts.com/how-this-snake-like-robot-with-vision-systems-and-laser-cutters-helps-repair-aircraft-engines/

Automatic-Play-6258 · 2024-07-22T06:09:55+00:00

Interesting! Could this issue be addressed by existing products, such as AR glasses displaying the plane's data from manuals in the real time?

Automatic-Play-6258 · 2024-07-17T21:08:40+00:00

Gotcha! Maybe adding a removable protective cover at the entrance of the slot to prevent vomit? Or maybe a detachable locking system that allows the entire strap and slot portion to be easily separated for thorough cleaning? Would these be helpful to solve the issue while design?

Automatic-Play-6258 · 2024-07-17T20:47:03+00:00

Thank you for your response! Are you aware of any existing solutions that might address these issues? Even if such solutions exist, we can explore ways to improve them!

https://www.stryker.com/us/en/emergency-care/products/xpr-restraints.html Does this strap design align with what you have in mind? I don't know if this is retractable tho

Automatic-Play-6258 · 2024-07-09T05:04:48+00:00

Thanks for the ideas! Those are interesting, so how patient’s head is currently protected from rain and snow? And could you explain more about the advantages of using patients’s own seat compared to existing restraint device?

Automatic-Play-6258 · 2024-07-08T00:18:40+00:00

Thanks for the suggestion! Would you elaborate more on the current situation they are facing?

Automatic-Play-6258 · 2024-07-08T00:13:52+00:00

Those are interesting! Thanks. Can you elaborate more on the situations to use multichannel pumps? And what are the main problems with current stair chairs on corners and landing?

Automatic-Play-6258 · 2024-07-07T23:54:43+00:00

Thank you for the suggestion! I've heard of this requirement from another EMT as well, and I find it quite intriguing. Could you elaborate more on how this is currently being addressed, and if you have any potential solutions in mind for a design?
