A stationary communication unit is adapted to be mounted to a headwall of a healthcare facility and enable wireless communication between a patient support apparatus and a nurse call system. The unit also performs one or more additional functions, such as, but not limited to: determining when a healthcare worker enters/exits the room; determining when the patient support apparatus exits/enters the room; storing/retrieving medical device data associated with a patient; directing medical device data to one or more displays in the room; auto-updating, auto-retrieving, and/or auto-displaying data upon healthcare worker entry into the room; auto-muting room sounds during nurse-patient communication; and auto-directing a healthcare workers electronic device to data associated with the patient in that room. In alternative embodiments, one or more of these additional functions are incorporated into a patient support apparatus.

A medical device assembly including a movable suspension arm, a vertically adjustable service head located at an end of the suspension arm, the vertically adjustable service head including a service head face with outlets thereon, and conduits routed by the suspension arm, into the vertically adjustable service head in a horizontal direction and vertically within the vertically adjustable service head to the outlets. The vertically adjustable service head includes a vertically adjustable column for raising and lowering the outlets.

Incoming call signal reception means receives an incoming call signal including a caller number, caller information, and ring type information. Image generation means generates, based on the incoming call signal, a caller information image including at least a portion of the caller information as character information. Telephone dictionary registering means registers the caller number, caller text information, and the caller information image in a telephone dictionary. Incoming call screen display means receives the caller number and acquires the registered caller text information and the caller information image corresponding to the received caller number from the telephone dictionary. Incoming call screen display means displays an incoming call screen including the caller text information and the caller information image.

The motorized medicine cart is a motorized vehicle. The motorized medicine cart is configured for use in distributing medication. The motorized medicine cart transports the medication and an individual designated to distribute the medication within a medical facility. The motorized medicine cart is driven by the designated individual. The motorized medicine cart comprises a medication cabinet, a vehicle structure, and a control circuit. The medication cabinet and the control circuit attach to the vehicle structure. The vehicle structure transports the medication cabinet and the individual through the medical facility. The control circuit controls the operation of the vehicle structure.

Infusion pumps having a fluid pump and a processor are disclosed. The processor is configured to transmit a signal to make a medical facility network aware that the infusion pump is within a wireless network range of a medical treatment area of a medical facility, receive a request for device identity information specific to the infusion pump, transmit the device identity information specific to the infusion pump, receive, if the infusion pump is authenticated by the medical facility network, an initialization signal from the medical facility network, wherein the initialization signal causes initialization of the infusion pump within the medical treatment area, receive, from a sensor via the medical facility network after receiving the initialization signal, a measurement, and control the adjustable rate of the fluid pump based at least in part on the measurement. Systems having infusion pumps are also disclosed.

Medication management and reporting technology, in which output from at least one sensor configured to sense physical activity in a building in which medication of a patient is located is monitored and a determination is made to capture one or more images of the medication based on the monitoring. A camera is used to capture an image of the medication and the captured image is analyzed to detect a state of the medication. Information regarding a schedule by which the medication should be taken by the patient is accessed and an expected state of the medication is determined. The detected state is compared with the expected state and a determination is made that the patient has departed from the schedule based on the comparison revealing that the detected state does not match the expected state. A message indicating the departure from the schedule is sent based on the determination.

A number of patient beds are disclosed. Some patient beds have siderails that are movable by a patient so that the patient can egress from the bed without interference from the siderails. Various caregiver control panels and patient control panels for controlling features and functions of a patient bed are also disclosed. For example, a cart with caregiver control inputs, including hand inputs on a graphical user interface (GUI) and foot inputs, is disclosed. Patient positioning and transfer devices are also disclosed. Various types of in-bed physical therapy devices are also disclosed.

A system for on-demand delivery of a sterile fluid includes a housing. At least one fluid reservoir is associated with the housing and configured to hold a fluid. A sterilization and/or purification mechanism is in fluid communication with the at least one fluid reservoir. The sterilization and/or purification mechanism is configured to sterilize the fluid. A dispensing mechanism is in fluid communication with the sterilization mechanism and configured to dispense the sterile fluid. A controller is associated with one or more of the housing, the at least one fluid reservoir, the sterilization and/or purification mechanism, and the dispensing mechanism. The controller being configured to modulate at least one operating characteristic of the system. The system is configured to deliver the sterile and/or purified fluid immediately after a request is made.

The injection needle removal device has: a cylindrical outer cylinder on an upper opening of an injection needle case; a helical track on an inner peripheral surface of the outer cylinder in a helical shape from an upper locking point to a lower locking point; a syringe holding cylinder helically advances in the outer cylinder along the helical track; an injection needle tightening ring on a lower end portion of the syringe holding cylinder, the injection needle tightening ring holds an injection needle base portion of a syringe in the syringe holding cylinder to clamp the injection needle base portion; and a locking mechanism that stops the syringe holding cylinder where the injection needle tightening ring is exposed from a lower side of the outer cylinder at the lower locking point. The injection needle tightening ring turns to remove the syringe needle base portion from the syringe body and to expand in a distal-end divided manner by a turning generated by a descending movement of the syringe holding cylinder proximate the lower locking point to discard the injection needle base portion into the injection needle accommodation case with the injection needle.
