Introduction / Motivation

PHOTONIC SYSTEMS INTEGRATION LABORATORY – UCSD JACOBS SCHOOL OF ENGINEERING

  • Dr. Neil Finer, Chief of the UCSD Medical Center’s Division of Neonatology, and

Wade Rich, Research Coordinator for the Division of Neonatology, approached the Photonic Systems Integration Lab with a collaboration proposal.

  • 25,000 extremely low birth weight infants born annually,
  • Most require intubation, a difficult / traumatic process for neonates
  • Current instruments designed for adults, not infants, esp. not neonates.
  • Project goal: Working model of a neonatal video laryngoscope.

Infant Intubation

85 - 90% of extremely low birth weight infants need intubation. Intubation requires 3 (average) to 10 tries Multiple attempts lead to serious risks.

Design Solutions

The most elegant solution is a tapered acrylic light pipe acting as the blade. We make use of a Fraen coupling lens. With a necessary optical power of at least 30 to 40 mW, an LED at the tip would dissipate far too much heat. Calculated efficiency is just over 50%.

Acrylic blanks are cut at the right aspect ratio. The edges are sanded, then flame-polished with a hydrogen-oxygen torch. Blanks are heated to pliability, then stretched to form a taper

Measured efficiency is 28%, but the LED is bright enough that this is sufficient.

Conclusions and Future Directions

  • Neonate anatomy guided our design.
  • We met all the constraints of the project.
  • Less expensive wafer cameras could be used to reduce cost.
  • We would need a sterilizable device to perform a clinical trial
  • Further modifications could be made
