LEGO Systems is partnering with the Travelers Championship, Connecticut’s PGA TOUR event, to deliver a first class experience for all participants.

This total body cooling and warming system helps maintain normothermia in pediatric patients for short or long-term treatments. The innovative, servo-controlled design continuously monitors an infant’s temperature, making precise adjustments to the cooling fluid every 2 seconds to ensure the infant’s temperature remains stable.

Help kids like Olive
Olive is a sweetheart…and a fighter.
At less than 24 hours old, five-pound, 12-ounce Olive arrived at Connecticut Children’s Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. Her initial diagnoses were terrifying. Olive was at risk for respiratory failure and needed heart surgery. While cradled in her mother’s arms, the unthinkable happened.
