Treatment cabinets designed for use during infant resuscitation. These cabinets typically consist of a wooden, plastic, or metallic structure typically including a slide-out bassinet or infant bed and a warming system. The cabinet also includes all the devices needed for infant and/or neonate resuscitation such as an internal oxygen tank and/or a hook-up oxygen hose, an aspirator, a resuscitation bag, timers (e.g., for Apgar score), manometers, and monitors. Adjustable shelves and/or drawers for storage of supplies and rails to attach additional devices are also integral parts of the cabinet. Most cabinets are stand-alone units but some may be mounted on the wall. Infant resuscitation cabinets are located in maternity and infant areas and in emergency departments of healthcare facilities.
