Revital is a project that aims to transform the organ transportation industry in medicine and healthcare. It relies on the use of a heat pump to mimic the environment of the human body - Thermoregulation. This is essential for the preservation of organs as most organs only have a specific time frame in which they can be used in surgery.
This product attempts to break molds by mimicking the human body instead of the traditional method of using ice coolers to transport organs. This system allows temperature regulation via the heat pump, perfusing the needed nutrients, blood, and oxygen throughout the organ to mimic its optimum condition, enzyme and chemical regulation, sensors, and highly sensitive control systems to monitor the condition and vitals of the organ.
This system is highly efficient not only in terms of functionality but also in aesthetics. The system has a sleek and modern design which only serves its purpose as it is also meant to be adaptable to all different climates and settings. With a balancing ability, the machine is able to withstand aggression but towards it, as the machine contains non-Newtonian and/or viscoelastic fluids to help keep the organ in a stable condition.
Uses of the system include but are not limited to:
- Organ transportation
- Regular usage in hospitals
- Intense medical scenarios
- War victims (transport for immediate trauma surgery)
- Delivery to remote or low-resource areas
