EKG Monitor and Cable Management System
An EKG monitor and cable management system, including a carrying case type housing, a plurality of retraction reels operably mounted in said housing; and a plurality of EKG leads, each including wires having electrodes disposed at a terminal end, each spooled on one of said reels. The leads deploy and retract in pairs, with the frontal leads retracting as a group of three pairs onto three separate retraction reels. Transport and use of the system is in the same upright orientation, and the front side of the housing is configured to accommodate and secure a Bluetooth enabled and network-connectable tablet computer.
CAPACITIVE LEADWIRE FOR PHYSIOLOGICAL PATIENT MONITORING
A leadwire for physiological patient monitoring is provided that transfers potentials received at a chest electrode to a data acquisition device. The leadwire includes an electrode end connectable to the chest electrode and a first conductive layer extending from the electrode end. The leadwire also has a device end connectable to a data acquisition device and a second conductive layer extending from the device end. The first conductive layer is galvanically isolated from the second conductive layer such that the first conductive layer and the second conductive layer form a capacitor.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR PERFORMING AN ELECTROCARDIOGRAM
A system and method for performing an electrocardiogram is described herein. The system may include one or more of an electrode strip, a data recorder, a connector, one or more computing platforms, and/or other components. The electrode strip may include multiple electrodes configured to provide signals conveying information associated with electrocardiograms. The multiple electrodes may be integrated into the electrode strip. The data recorder may be configured to receive and record information associated with electrocardiograms. Information associated with electrocardiograms may be communicated from the electrode strip to the data recorder via a connector. The connector may include a cableless connector. In some implementations, the information associated with electrocardiograms may be transmitted to one or more computing platforms.
Methods and Systems for Monitoring and Delivering Therapy to a Patient including a Detachable Manifold for a Monitor Module
An example system for monitoring and delivering therapy to a patient includes a monitor module with patient monitoring capability, and a manifold that is operable to provide an electrical connection between the monitor module and cables connecting to sensors for collecting physiologic monitoring data of a patient, and to provide a gas connection between the monitor module and tubing for delivering treatment to or collecting additional physiologic monitoring data from the patient. The manifold includes a connector for mechanically connecting the manifold to the monitor module, and the connector also for mechanically disconnecting the manifold from the monitor module while maintaining the cables and the tubing coupled to the patient. In some examples, the system can also include a cot including a second set of monitoring electronics with patient monitoring capability, the cot including a port for coupling with the connector of the manifold.
ELECTROCARDIOGRAM DEVICE AND DOCKING STATIONS
A system for electrocardiography includes a handheld device having a device housing, and a patient cable having a proximal end that connects to the device housing. A distal end of the patient cable breaks out into leads for attachment to a patient. The handheld device generates an electrocardiogram based on electrical signals received from the patient cable. The system further includes a docking station having a dock housing to support the device housing and to recharge a battery of the handheld device.

Charging station for physiological monitoring device
A charging station for providing power to a physiological monitoring device can include a charging bay and a tray. The charging bay can include a charging port configured to receive power from a power source. The tray can be positioned within and movably mounted relative to the charging bay. The tray can be further configured to secure the physiological monitoring device and move between a first position and a second position. In the first position, the tray can be spaced away from the charging port, and, in the second position, the tray can be positioned proximate the charging port, thereby allowing the physiological monitoring device to electrically connect to the charging port.
ELECTRODE CONVERSION SYSTEM AND APPARATUS
An exemplary apparatus for operating with an electroencephalograms apparatus can be provided, which can include, for example a flexible conductor disposed in a shape of a coil, an electrode disposed on a first end of the flexible conductor, and a coupling configuration disposed on a second end of the flexible conductor, where the coupling configuration can be designed to couple the flexible conductor to the electroencephalograms apparatus. The flexible conductor can be stretchable.
