Arctic Mobile Unit Sustains Life in Extreme Climates

arctic01

I’ve sort of always wanted to honeymoon in the Arctic. Sure, there’s nothing to do outdoors, but that’s sort of the point, if you get my drift. *rawr*

Designed to withstand an Arctic winter, the Arctic Mobile Unit provides life support for up to three people for 15 days. Perfect for a hump-tastic fortnight-longĀ  procreation marathon. Gotta keep each other warm somehow, amirite?

ICU In A Suitcase For Critical Conditions

Nowadays, everything has got to be compact and portable. If it isn’t, you might as well throw it out with the rest of the unnecessarily obtuse crap. Here’s something everyone shouldn’t leave home without: a portable Intensive Care Unit. It’s got all you need jam packed in a suitcase-sized carrying case. An integrated ventilator with CO2 & O2 monitoring, ECG, invasive and non-invasive blood pressure monitoring, low and high rate infusion pumps with a fluid warmer, and that’s not even the half of it.

This thing can even be hooked up to a printer, just in case you need to print out an electrocardiogram. So, the next time you wake up in a bathtub full of ice with two scars over where your kidneys should be, you better hope you didn’t leave yours at home.
