MTEC member and small business SurgiBox Inc. is an inventor of surgical kits that allow doctors to perform life-saving surgeries anywhere – even in the middle of war zones or other hostile situations. The SurgiField Kits – an “operating room in a backpack” system – brings safe surgery to patients everywhere, creating a sterile environment and making surgery safer for patients and providers alike. This groundbreaking medical technology was recently recognized by Time Magazine and named among its Best Inventions of 2023!

Surgifield Kits have also been delivered to train Ukrainian surgeons in advanced surgical techniques, to support safe surgery throughout Ukraine. MTEC is supporting the collection of data on SurgiField use and surgical safety in Ukraine.

Congratulations to SurgiBox for the well-deserved recognition of this invention that helps medical teams ensure sterility and perform life-saving work in extreme environments.
