Project description

Corax is a biomedical device designed to prevent infection in children with low immune defenses, especially for burn victims. The goal is to create an isolation environment, limited to the child, in order to control temperature, humidity, and ventilation to avoid the main causes of death, which are infections and hypothermia. This protocol reduces the need for personnel and costs compared to the common medication with bandages and medicines. The device is intended to be versatile, user-friendly, transportable and its design suits the specific needs of emergency settings.
