The contact pads each have a top surface and a bottom surface. A plurality of signal pins are individually associated with the plurality of contact pads; and each of the signal pins correspondingly project outwardly from the bottom surface of an associated contact pad and outwardly from the bottom surface of the base housing. A center ground pad, having a top surface and a bottom surface, is provided within the base housing. A ground pin projects outwardly from the bottom surface of the center ground pad and outwardly from the bottom surface of the base housing. A plurality of conductors is arranged radially within the top housing. The conductors individually correspond to the plurality of contact pads within the base housing. Each of the conductors has (i) a bottom surface that is capable of being in rotatable contact with the top surface of each of the contact pads and (ii) a top surface that projects outwardly from the top housing. A ground conductor is centrally located within the top housing and is surrounded by the plurality of conductors. The ground conductor has a bottom surface that is in rotatable contact with the top surface of the center ground pad in the base housing, and a top surface that projects outwardly from the top housing.

Abstract: A medication safety device and method can include an infusion pump and a drug library in communication with the infusion pump. The drug library can have upper hard and soft limits and lower hard and soft limits associated with at least one drug. A graphical user interface can display a bar chart showing upper and lower soft limit bars for the at least one drug. The upper and lower soft limit bars can be grabbed and dragged on the graphical user interface in touch-screen fashion to new positions associated with new upper and lower soft limits. The graphical user interface and associated hardware and software can be configurable to responsively re-analyze data and compare a particular infusion to the new upper and lower soft limits.

Abstract: An aural volume feedback system is implemented in a center having a plurality of agents working thereat. Each agent is situated at a work station for being in calling contact with a client. At the work station, a microphone transforms aural speech of the agent into an electrical format, and a volume detector samples the electrical format and generates based on the sampling an instantaneous volume level. The volume detector compares the generated volume level to a predetermined threshold to determine that the agent is speaking excessively loudly, and thereafter outputs a trigger signal. A feedback generator receives the trigger signal, and based thereon generates a feedback to be perceived by the offending agent at the work station, where the perceived feedback hopefully causes the offending agent to reduce the aural volume thereof.

Abstract: A connector has a first member with a distal portion non-removably coupled to a proximal portion of a second member. Respective through passages at the first and second members are in alignment to establish a through channel longitudinally along the connector. A seal in the connector prevents fluid leakage from the connector. A conventional fitting may be provided at one of the ends and a non-conventional fitting may be provided at the other end of the connector so that the connector may connect a device with a conventional fitting to a device with a non-conventional fitting. Once connected to the connector, the device with the conventional fitting is not removable from the connector. The first and second members are rotatable relative to each other about the longitudinal axis of the connector to enable rotational alignment of devices connected to the connector.

Abstract: A regional anesthesia catheter used with a guide, for example a cannula, has a distal portion integrally connected to its main portion by a junction portion that has a cross-sectional profile different from the distal and main portions, so as to predispose the distal portion of the catheter to move in a given direction when it is not constrained by the guide. The cross-sectional profile of the junction portion may be configured in a particular shape, or be constructed to have a flexibility that predisposes the distal portion to bend, curve or move toward a given direction. A number of portions of a catheter may be configured to bend at a predefined direction. Further, a catheter may be configured to have a cross sectional profile or a predefined flexibility along its entire length to cause the catheter to move in a predefined direction.

Abstract: A fitting has a first end conventional connector and a second end non-conventional connector of a given configuration that is matable only to a counterpart non-conventional connector having a configuration complementary to the given configuration. The body of the fitting has two extending wings that merge with a partition that separates the conventional connector from the body. A label may be mounted about the neck extension of the male connector to convey information to the user. The portion along the fitting between the label and the partition provides a location whereat the user can position his fingers to grasp the fitting. The partition prevents the fingers of the user from coming into contact with and contaminating the conventional connector, while the label, in addition to conveying information to the user, also acts a barrier to prevent contamination of the non-conventional connector by the fingers of the user.
