HACKERS and HOSPITALS is an effort to coordinate Hackers with Hospitals during an immediate time of need.

The wiki is divided into two sections: Participate and Resources. Participate is a list of ways that anyone can help with the project. Resources are projects that are working toward helping.

Participate

During the COVID-19 pandemic, we needed to help coordinate the medical needs of hospitals with local area fabricators. HACKERS and HOSPITALS is no longer limited to fighting against COVID-19.

We have a large number of healthcare professionals, hackers, makers, engineers, biomedical innovators, and crafters. If we can all work together, we can save lives.

As of 20220404, HACKERS and HOSPITALS lists 145 projects.

Participate is a list of ways that anyone can help with the project.

Resources

Resources are projects that are working toward helping.

Before fabricating any equipment, check first with your local hospitals to see if this is what they need and will use. Each hospital will have its own requirements.

Reviewed Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)

Face Shields

Face Shield Adapters

Face Masks

Cloth mask adapters

Devices that relieve pressure on the ears during long-term usage of masks.

Unreviewed PPE

Face Shields

Cloth Masks

Cloth mask adapters

Devices that relieve pressure on the ears during long-term usage of masks.

3D Printed Face Masks

Medical gowns

Positive Pressure Suit

Door handles

Ways to open doors without touching the handle.

Procedure shields/screens

Diagnostics

3D Printed stethoscope

3D Printed Otoscope:

Therapeutics

Ventilators

Vent Specifications

Ventilator specifications can help hackers design and understand how a ventilator works.

Vent Designs

Ventilator designs are plans and projects that need help designing a quick solution. Most projects require testing before clinical use.

Vent Splitting

Ventilator Splitting could potentially increase the patient capacity of commercial ventilators.

Note: This method is controversial and has many obstacles to overcome. Read the criticisms of this method before testing as there are problems that must be addressed. Read as much about this as you can before considering this route for patients.

Vent Parts

Ventilator Parts could be used for ventilators with ventilators in an emergency situation.

Medical supplies unrelated to COVID-19

3D Printed Tourniquet

Powerchairs

  • BM3 Powerchair
    • Open design with source available code that depends on nonfree failsafe hardware.

Diabetes

Tools for 3D Printers

Software

Software listed here is free software. https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.en.html Concerns should be edited or supplemented.

CAD:

Slicing for printing:

3D print server:

Pandemic tracking:

Contact Tracing:

Contact tracing is a highly controversial topic in our community as the implementation would also need to respect the privacy of the individual. This is a difficult task especially if the frontend or backend is proprietary and centralized. Once a system like this is built, can it be turned off? Will the data be used against its users? Will the system be opt-in or forced upon users with a system update?

  • DP-3T Decentralized Privacy-Preserving Proximity Tracing
    • How? Phones generate randomized IDs that is broadcasted to nearby devices. Phones remember these IDs, and IDs they received. Upon infection, saved random IDs (the ones sent, not the ones seen) are uploaded to a database that is trusted to, and only to, not add fake EphIDs, or remove any events, and to be available. A few times a day, check the database of your local authority to see if any new IDs match any seen IDs.

      • Biomedical research
      • Dentists
    • Tailors
  • Education
    • Schools
      • Reach out your local school districts and their unions to use their fabrication equipment! Much of the equipment is going unused as schools are closing.
    • After-school centers
  • Hobbyists and Hackers
