Helicopter equipment for air transfers

The SONeT team have a pressing need for equipment to support their neonatal incubator for helicopter transfers of their sickest babies. This includes:

• Adaptors to connect to their existing nitric machine to allow it to be  used with the air incubator (£1,420 and £1,050 - one for each part of the system)
• Pump mounts to allow the team to transport more infusion pumps (for continuous infusion of medications) - £6,150

These items cost more than they would for road transfers due to the additional testing that is required, and because they are for a specialist piece of equipment (there are only 3 in England of this design).

The SONeT team currently share a set of these adaptors and pump mount with another team but would really like to have their own so that it can be set up ready for immediate use.
