Abstract in simplified Chinese:U形管状毯的各腿部被建构成沿着其长度实质上延伸有至少一排孔洞。这些孔洞尺寸从最接近毯子的空气入口交叉区段之近端部位朝向该毯子腿部的远程部位递增地增加,在空气入口交叉区段中,加热空气被输入至毯子内以便使毯子膨胀起来。对于本发明毯子的具体实施例来说,沿着毯子各腿部的多个排气孔被成群聚集成多个区段(图形显示为三个),使得各区段中的排气孔具有相同的尺寸。借由使孔洞的尺寸沿着腿部远离热源而逐渐变大,在毯子的远程部位上输出较大量的温暖空气,以补偿在温暖空气从毯子排放出去前暖空气所须要行进之距离。结果,可以从毯子的腿部将实质上均匀分布的温暖空气输出至病人的两侧上,致使,病人可以沿着其整个身体被均匀地温暖起来。设有可以从毯子腿部分离开来的带子,以便将毯子固定至病人。
Abstract in simplified Chinese:一种可充气对流式热毯,其系设计成在其顶面具有至少一个区段,至少一流体吸收机构系稳固地安装于该区段上,用于吸收来自置放于该毯子上之目标物的流体,或是来自其它来源而流至毯子上的流体。该其中一区段系以设于毯子上而形成用于收集流体之井部的方式所构成。该流体吸收机构,其可为吸收垫之形式,可吸收所收集的流体,借此将目标物上的蒸发和冷却效应最小化。代替将其安装于毯子之顶部,该流体吸收垫可安装于毯子的下方,以设置在该流体收集区段处的合适的孔洞和/或开口,因此所收集的流体可排放至流体吸收垫上。为了加强空气输入流至毯子中,以及为了让毯子能够平坦的折叠以用于贮藏或运送,一可折叠固定机构系设于毯子的输入端口口处。该固定机构之形状有助于将一空气管配接至该输入端口口。当折叠成折叠形态时,该固定机构,以及该输入端口口,将呈现实质上与该毯子共平面。当装配成用于接收空气管的形态时,该固定机构系定位成实质上正交于该毯子。
Abstract in simplified Chinese:本发明提供一种针套,其包括一夹具,该夹具具有一用以夹住针轴之倾斜壁,及一用以阻挡其针尖之远程壁,其中倾斜壁与远程壁可由一斜向撑杆互相连接,诸如片弹簧之一弹簧部件可具有延伸超出该撑杆之边缘的一部分,以偏置该夹具从而夹住针轴,且远程壁可为或可包括一压花柱且具有L-形以界定一口缘以有助于阻挡针尖。该夹具可具有一悬垂跟座以有助于围绕凸缘枢转夹具从而夹住针轴。可提供一针托以限制针头之弯曲,否则针头之弯曲会容许针头自夹具松脱。本发明提供用于限制针头接口及针套外壳旋转之配置,亦同样提供防护罩以减少不慎启动针套的风险。此外,针套可与一导管总成一起使用。本发明亦提供经改良的鸭嘴释放机构。
Abstract:
A syringe pump configured to at least partially surround a syringe loaded into the pump. The syringe pump including a syringe pump housing defining a syringe receptacle shaped and sized to accept loading of the syringe, a plunger driver assembly configured to manipulate a plunger of a syringe loaded into the syringe pump, and a syringe housing including a syringe barrel shield pivotably coupled to the syringe pump housing configured to at least partially enclose a syringe loaded into the syringe pump within the syringe receptacle, and a syringe plunger tray and lid assembly operably coupled to the syringe pump housing and configured to at least partially enclose a portion of the plunger driver assembly.
Abstract:
A method and medical pump to perform a flushing procedure are provided. The medical pump is configured to execute the flushing procedure subsequent to an infusion procedure, the flushing procedure and infusion procedure lacking a specified relationship between each other until after performance of the infusion procedure. The method comprises performing an infusion procedure of a medicament with the medical pump and automatically querying in human detectable form whether to execute a flushing procedure in response to conclusion of the infusion procedure.
Abstract:
A safety catheter device has a clip guard that covers the needle tip protector or safety needle clip from the time that the device is shipped out in the ready to use position, through its use as a safety catheter device, to when the clip guard and the safety needle clip enclosed by the clip guard is removed from the catheter hub after the catheter extending from the catheter hub has been correctly placed into the vein or artery of the patient. A clip cup may be added to provide an additional level of protection for the safety needle clip and the sharp distal tip of the needle contained therein. Safety needle clips of different configurations used with the safety catheter device are described.
Abstract:
Infusion pump interfaces providing simple and intuitive user experiences. A controller display subsystem for implementing infusion pump interfaces includes a processor, a memory, display logic, keypad I/O, and screen I/O. Display logic can command the processor via the memory to implement desirable displays on screen I/O.
Abstract:
An identifier is provided to a medical device such as a syringe to uniquely identify the medical device. For a syringe, the unique identifier may be in the form of a bar code printed onto the thumb press, stem, or both at the plunger of the syringe. The bar code may be a 2-dimensional bar code or a 1-dimensional bar code. Alternatively, an RFID tag may be attached to the plunger, for example fitted to or embedded into the thumb press. The unique identifier provides, at minimum, the manufacturing data unique to the syringe so that the history of the syringe may be readily traced and associated with the medical records of the patient the syringe is used for.
