A reconfigurable, foldable, and manually transportable infant radiant warmer. In a collapsed configuration, the warmer consumes a minimal amount of space and can be manually transported easily. In a deployed configuration, the warmer provides open access to an infant lying on a bed platform for receiving resuscitative therapy and warmth from a radiant heater disposed upon an adjacent mast. The reconfigurable infant radiant warmer includes mutually reconfigurable bed, mast, and suspension modules. The mast module and the suspension module may be selectively moved relative to the bed module to achieve the collapsed configuration.

Portable folding infant radiant warmer

One aspect of the present disclosure relates to a system for providing non-invasive, high frequency ventilation to a neonate or an infant in need thereof. The system can include a tubing array, a vibration device, and a bifurcated cannula. The tubing array can be adapted to receive a flow of pressurized gas therethrough. The vibration device can be fluidly coupled to the tubing array and configured to generate and apply a jet of air to the flow of pressurized gas. The bifurcated cannula can be fluidly coupled to the tubing array and have independently movable first and second prongs that are sized and dimensioned for insertion into first and second nostrils, respectively, of the neonate or the infant.
