A global effort is ongoing in the scientific community and in the maker movement, which focuses on creating devices and tinkering with them, to reverse-engineer commercial medical equipment and get it to healthcare workers. For these 'low-tech' solutions to have a real impact, it is important for them to coalesce around approved designs.
科学界和创客运动正在全球范围内展开努力,该运动专注于制造设备并对其进行修补,以逆向工程商业医疗设备并将其提供给医护人员。为了使这些“低技术”解决方案产生实际影响,围绕经批准的设计进行整合非常重要。
