USA. Design team creates a naloxone dispenser
(...) Claudia B. Rebola, graduate studies coordinator in UC's College of Design, Architecture, Art, and Planning (DAAP), designed a device to make naloxone more accessible to those in need. Her intent is to bring a model she helped create first in Providence, Rhode Island, to spaces in Cincinnati by spring.
An associate professor in DAAP's Myron E. Ullman, Jr. School of Design, Rebola has worked with graduate students to create AntiOD, a naloxone-dispensing smart device installed in semi-public places with step-by-step instructions for bystanders. Looking at a broader view of educating the public, Rebola's team has also created an informational campaign to train the public on signs of overdose and how to help. (MedicalXpress, USA, 22.01.2019)
