Safe and Flexible Patient Transport Unit
Introducing MRIGlobal’s Portable Biocontainment Unit (PBCU)
When facing a biological threat, providing biocontainment in patient transport is critical.
Recognizing this need, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services’ (HHS) Administration for Strategic Preparedness and Response (ASPR) called on MRIGlobal to lead development of the Portable Biocontainment Unit (PBCU).
The PBCU is the first domestic resource for isolating and transporting patients with high-consequence infectious diseases via ground, air, and sea to specialized care facilities, serving as a necessary asset to the country’s ability to respond to these threats and protect global health. With the PBCU, the U.S. has the equipment needed to transport and safely care for patients with highly infectious disease, while protecting the medical staff and civilians.
What is the PBCU?
The PBCU allows isolation and transport of patients with highly infectious diseases.
- Built upon MRIGlobal’s decades of biocontainment experience
- Allows a full spectrum of critical care
- Vaporized hydrogen peroxide for thorough post-deployment decontamination
- Maintains containment through emergency landings or mid-air rapid decompression events
