Students create removable thermal pockets

About the solution

A splendid group of young adults from JUNITEC - Junior Enterprises of the Higher Technical Institute gave me a hand. They developed a project for almost a year: removable thermal pockets. These pockets (attached images) are heated by a thermal pad that reacts to electricity, with power supplied by a power bank. Its aim is to turn the war against the cold - a feature very much felt by people with CMT, especially when it comes to distal limbs like feet and hands. It's a seemingly small project, but it greatly improves the quality of life of a patient. Another step against discomfort caused by CMT!

关于发明者

My name is Diogo Lopes, and I suffer from Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease. My hands got very cold, and I had the idea for thermal pockets who could keep my hands warm. I explained my idea to the Patient Innovation team, who put me in contact with engineering students from JUNITEC, who build me removable thermal pockets.
