The box is made up of acrylic plastic and has been cut with the help of lasers to ensure no aerosol particles are transferred from the patient to the health worker. This way a doctor will be able to carry out the intubation process effectively and without any danger to him/her of coronavirus infection.

Hospitals have already started procuring the face shields and aerosol boxes from ITI. MKCG hospital in Berhampur has placed an order of 200 face shields and 2 aerosol boxes.
