What are the qualities of Fe Del Mundo's incubator?

Dr. Fe del Mundo is a world-renowned Filipino doctor who has devoted all her life to the cause of child and maternal health. She had to be innovative in the struggle to save lives in a country where children die from the most common yet preventable diseases.She is credited with devising an incubator for use in rural areas without electricity, as well as a cloth-suspended scale to weigh infants and a radiant warmer made of bamboo to maintain the baby's body temperature. I interviewed her this January 2007 for a biographical article as the recipient of the Ramon Magsaysay Award for Public Service in 1977.According to Dr. del Mundo, her makeshift incubator consisted of two native woven baskets used for keeping laundry. These were of different sizes; the smaller basket was placed inside the larger one.“I put in hot water bottles all around between them. I put a little hood over the entire contraption and attached oxygen for the baby,” she says. “We had to do with whatever was available.”At age 95, Dr. del Mundo is still in active practice, albeit in a wheelchair.Submitted by Fides LimPhilippines, 28 July 2007
