Abstract:
Accessories of a medical device, such as a defibrillator, are described. The accessories reduce delays in treating or monitoring a patient by increasing the efficiency of using, and the ease of use of, the medical device. An adjustable kickstand is movable between a collapsed and extended position to recline the medical device. In the reclined position, a display of the medical device can be more easily viewed by the user. Storage bags can be coupled to the medical device to efficiently store accessories for use with the medical device. The stored accessories can be coupled to the medical device while the accessories are stored within the storage bags. A port guard can protect and shield a connection between a cable and a port of the medical device to prevent the cable (e.g., an ECG cable) from being disconnected from the port of the medical device.
Abstract:
FIG. 1 is a front view of a medical device connector; FIG. 2 is an enlarged perspective view of a front view of the medical device connector shown in FIG. 1; FIG. 3 is a top view thereof; FIG. 4 is a front view thereof; FIG. 5 is a back view thereof; and, FIG. 6 is a side view thereof. The dashed broken lines depict portions of the medical device connector that form no part of the claimed design. The dot-dashed broken lines represent boundaries of the claimed medical device connector and form no part of the claimed design.
Abstract:
A portable medical device having an intravenous line flow sensor integrated into a cable. The portable medical device may be a defibrillator having an ECG or electrode cable couple to ECG or electrode leads. The flow sensor may be integrated into the ECG or electrode cable. The portable medical device uses the flow sensor to capture and store information about fluids delivered to a patient being treated with the portable medical device. The information may include total volume provided, flow rate, and the like. The information may then be used to evaluate the treatment provided to the patient.

Abstract:
A defibrillator system optimizes the timing and manner of applying a defibrillator charge to a patient based upon data provided to the defibrillator from a utility module or one or more external devices. A parameter module on the utility module provides the defibrillator with patient parameter information. Devices external to the utility module may provide the utility module with coaching data that the utility module may pass through to the defibrillator as a proxy to the external devices. The utility module may also provide external devices with patient data that the utility module may pass through to the external devices as a proxy to the defibrillator on a scheduled or other basis. The utility module may additionally provide a reserve of power to enable defibrillators to be used where power is unavailable and to enable defibrillators to deliver multiple charges more readily anywhere, anytime.

Abstract:
A medical device housing having a reduced footprint is described. The medical device housing includes a flange coupled to a first portion of the housing and a second portion of the housing that is configured to be coupled to the flange to substantially enclose an electronic component(s) within an interior of the medical device housing. The first portion of the housing includes a support(s) that supports the flange within the first portion. In some examples, a trench is formed between an interior wall of the first portion of the housing and the flange. An adhesive is deposited within the trench to bond the flange to the first portion of the housing. The second portion of the housing is configured to decouple from the flange to allow access to the interior of the medical device housing, such as for maintenance or repairs.

Abstract:
A docking station for a medical device is described. In some examples, the docking station includes a frame and a base plate coupled to the frame. At least a portion of the base plate is coupled to a lower portion of the frame. In some examples, an electronic connector of the docking station is configured to couple to the medical device and to provide power to the medical device when the medical device is docked to the docking station. In some examples, a docking mechanism is coupled to an upper portion of the frame and configured to retain the medical device.
