VIDEO: Hebrew U Innovation Saves Lives in Seconds!

Students at Jerusalem’s Hebrew University have developed a new chest-tube insertion device that quickens the life-saving procedure for stabbing victims.

Israelis are known to be extremely resourceful and creative, overcoming challenges with remarkable ingenuity. A collapsed lung has become a common medical challenge over the past several months as a result of the current wave of Palestinian terror, where knife attacks are the most common form of violence. BioDesign students at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem developed ThoraXS, a new chest-tube insertion device that quickens the life-saving procedure for stabbing victims, shortening the time from about a quarter of an hour to a minute.

“We strongly believe that our solution will save the very people who risk their lives in our defense,” said one student, referring to the IDF soldiers who are often the victims.
