Augmented Infant Resuscitator (AIR)
The Augmented Infant Resuscitator (AIR) provides real-time feedback while using a bag-valve mask to resuscitate a newborn. Its design started as a collaboration between two doctors (one Ugandan, one American) with an automotive engineer and an electrical engineer who met at a 2012 MIT H@cking Medicine event.
This object was featured in the Designing Motherhood exhibition in 2022-2023.
