During transport to critical care centres, neonatal patients can be exposed to elevated levels of vibration which may pose a risk to the patients’ health. In Ontario, a standardized Neonatal Patient Transport System (NPTS) has been implemented in ground and air ambulances, and studies to...

The Neonatal Patient Transport System (NPTS) collaborative research team seeks to measure and mitigate vibrations experienced by neonatal patients during ground and air transport. A custom test apparatus was designed for use with an electrodynamic shaker to investigate the effectiveness of...

Neonatal infants in need of advanced care, often require transportation via road ambulance to neonatal intensive care units. The ambulance exposes these vulnerable infants to potentially harmful noise and vibration. To better understand the levels of vibration, this paper maps the magnitude of...
