Transport Incubator System Offers Complete Intensive Care

The Globe-Trotter GT5400 provides a range of central functions such as thermoregulation, ventilation, infusion technology, and real-time monitoring for neonates and newborns during inter- and intra-hospital transport. All sub-systems are combined on a modular frame, allowing the system to be individually configured to the respective transport requirements, instead of having to provide separate solutions for different forms of transport. As a result, the GT5400 can be used as a universal transport incubator system.

In addition to the proprietary TI500 incubator, the standard configuration of the GT5400 includes a ventilator. Hospitals or service providers can further combine the system with a vital signs monitor, active humidification, and an infusion pump holder with locking mechanisms for up to 4 syringes, as well as additional areas for affixing hospital transport equipment. An integrated central monitor helps the team accompanying the transport to monitor important functions, as well as the patient.

A separate digital display making it easy to read the filling status of the up to four gas cylinders on individual slide out trays below the transport incubator; this helps transport personnel easily access the gas cylinders when they need to be changed. Thanks to the overall ergonomic concept of the system, the caregiver can reach all operating elements easily. The Globe-Trotter GT5400 and the I500 incubator are products of Dräger (Lübeck, Germany).

“We are happy to be able to offer a universal NICU on wheels for neonate and newborn transfers to hospitals and providers of ambulance services and patient transport services,” said Philip Möhring, head of product management thermoregulation at Dräger. “The GT5400 has been tested and certified according to international standards for ground and air transport.”
