Erica Frenkel: Univerzalni stroj za anesteziju

Millions of surgeries in low-income countries are jeopardized by anesthesia machines that require stable electricity and intensive maintenance. In some hospitals, a single power outage during an emergency C-section can turn a routine operation into a tragedy. A new, rugged anesthesia machine designed for these realities can run without electricity, costs a fraction of traditional models, and has safely powered over 2,000 surgeries in challenging settings. Designing for the world as it exists, not as we wish it were, can transform health outcomes everywhere.
