Yesterday, we had our second prototyping session. Unlike last time, we were not given any material to start with. Instead, we were told to improvise a tracheotomy kit out of the items that we could find on us.
Here's the list of items that we found:
John: 2 pen caps
Natalia: A knife looking bookmark
David: A plastic straw from his bottle
Lauren: Hand sanitizer
Brian: Sharp ended floss and CD
Me: Manual and bag for the kit
(Sorry if i missed something)
With all these items, we came up with the following Tracheotomy kit:
Manual:
1) Apply hand sanitizer to sanitizer area
2) Break CD into half for sharp edges
3) Using broken CD, floss's sharp tip, and knife looking bookmark to cut open the skin and tissues until the trachea is reached
4) With the clip on the pen caps, clip open the cut on the neck to stabilize/ ply open the opening
5) When the trachea is reached, push in the straw to allow breathing of the patient
6) Apply hand sanitizer to disinfect area.
I personally think the kit turned out to be pretty well, and it was well explained by the other group members.
