Vall d’Hebron University Hospital in Barcelona and medical technology company Vecmedical presented their Superbox boxes this week, which are used to cover serum, transfusion and chemotherapy bags when used with paediatric patients.
This initiative aims to help give younger patients a more positive experience of their treatment, as explained Dr Pablo Velasco of the Vall d’Hebron Paediatric Oncology and Haematology Unit, and Eunice Blanco, Social Work coordinator, in this article with the newspaper Ara.
Illustrators, photographers and celebrities like Mr Wonderful (Laura de Luque), Pilarín Bayés, Rosalía and the Márquez brothers donated their creations to the project.
The project was developed using the Design Thinking methodology and took into account the voices of healthcare professionals, social workers, engineers, patients and families.
The boxes are made of 100% recyclable, safe plastic that stands up to sterilisation products.
Vecmedical has extensive experience developing and manufacturing innovative technology and devices for hospitals. Established in 1999 in Montcada i Reixac, the company is led by current third Vice-President of CataloniaBio & HealthTech Angel Alonso.
