An anesthetic equipment storage and waste air management module configured to housing electronic and electromechanical surgical equipment including a system to measure and record administration of one or more IV medications or fluids for IV administration. The module can include a housing having a lower section and a tower-like upper section, wherein the lower section is configured to house unrelated waste heat-producing electronic and electromechanical surgical equipment. The module can also include a cowling that substantially confines waste heat generated by the unrelated waste heat-producing electronic and electromechanical surgical equipment, and can include a system for measuring and recording the administration of the one or more IV medications and fluids.

An evacuation dam apparatus including a frame having a top frame member, a bottom frame member, and two side frame members. A working area formed by the frame, a plurality of ports adjacent the working area, an outlet fluidly coupled with the plurality of ports. A fluid flow from at least a portion of the plurality of ports to the outlet forms a fluid flow path across the working area and at least a portion of the fluid flow path is formed within the frame.

A screen cover device and an air-cleaning device configured to be used together with such a screen cover device, wherein said screen cover device is configured for holding at least one disposable screen cover which when in use, is configured for covering at least a substantial part of an air outflow area of a screen of the air-cleaning device, wherein said screen cover device is provided as an attachment to the air-cleaning device and comprises: at least one disposable screen cover; and a first unit which is configured for keeping the at least one disposable screen cover when not in use and which is configured to be mounted to the air-cleaning device.

An airborne pathogen extraction system that provides for continuous airborne pathogen particle extraction from a specifically targeted area in a room or a specifically targeted area proximate to a user. The pathogenic particles are filtered and/or disinfected before the air is returned proximate to the originating location, or are directed an area away from the user(s). The airborne pathogen extraction systems and methods lower the chances of contagion or infection from airborne pathogens, such as viruses.

The present invention relates to an aerodynamic rail cover for an operating room with laminar airflow. In order to provide measures to improve the provision of a laminar airflow in an operating zone, an aerodynamic rail cover (10) for an operating room with laminar airflow is provided. The rail cover comprises at least one cover component (12), wherein the cover component comprises a base element (14); and an air guiding surface element (16) connected to the base element. The base element is configured to be attached to a portion of a support rail of a ceiling mounted support arrangement of a medical imaging system. The air guiding surface element forms an air guide to be mounted at least temporarily to cover a portion of the support rail and comprises two surface parts (18) that are extending from starting edges (20) on opposite sides of the base element to a common trailing edge (22). Further, the rail cover component is configured to be movably attached to the support rail of the ceiling mounted support arrangement of a medical imaging system.

The present invention relates to a system for protecting medical personnel and/or a patient from airborne pathogens in a surgical environment and a method for protecting medical personnel and/or a patient from airborne pathogens in a surgical environment.

An automated dose-response record system including a module for housing waste-heat producing electronic and electromechanical medical equipment including at least one physiologic monitor, and including a system to measure, temporally correlate and record dose and response events.

The present invention relates to the field of hygienic ophthalmologic examination. In particular, provided is a slit lamp biomicroscope comprising a laminar airflow device, and methods of using the same.

A system and method for creating a microenvironment within an ambient environment is disclosed. The first outlet is configured for expelling a gas at a first velocity sufficient for producing a gas curtain that separates the microenvironment from the ambient environment. The second outlet is configured for expelling the gas at a second velocity within the microenvironment. An inlet is spaced apart from the first outlet and the second outlet and is in fluid communication with a suction unit. The suction unit is positioned downstream of the inlet and configured for removing gas from the microenvironment through the inlet. The first velocity is greater than the second velocity.

Modules for housing electronic and electromechanical medical equipment including a system to measure and record administration of one or more IV medications or fluids for IV administration.
