A clamping device (2) for fixing a medical device (1) on a support (3) comprises a body (20) having a first jaw (200), an adjustment element (21) connected to a second jaw (210) and being adjustable with respect to the body (20) along a longitudinal axis (L) to establish a clamp connection with a support (3) in between the first jaw (200) and the second jaw (210), and a locking mechanism (22) for locking the adjustment element (21) with respect to the body (20) in a longitudinal position. Herein, the locking mechanism (22) comprises a coupling element (220) coupled to the adjustment element (21) and a locking element (224) coupled to the coupling element (220), wherein the adjustment element (21) is rotatable about the longitudinal axis (L) to thereby move the coupling element (220) and, by moving the coupling element (220), shift the locking element (224) with respect to the adjustment element (21) in order to engage the locking element (224) with the adjustment element (21) for locking the adjustment element (21) in its current longitudinal position or to disengage the locking element (224) from the adjustment element (21) in order to unlock the adjustment element (21) to allow a moving of the adjustment element (21) along the longitudinal axis (L).

A method and system to monitor and autonomously configure an intravascular assembly without medical staff involvement or presence. In this solution, a robotic device is associated with an intravascular assembly, which has tubing through which fluids are delivered intravenously. Monitoring of the tubing is initiated. In response to the monitoring, an errant flow through the tubing is detected; typically, the errant flow results from one of: a kink or twist in the tubing, an air bubble in the tubing, an occlusion or clot in the tubing, and pressure variations. In response to detecting the errant flow, and in advance of an audible alarm being generated in association with the intravascular assembly, a command is then issued to the associated robotic device. The command is configured to initiate, by the robotic device, physical engagement with and mechanical manipulation of the tubing, thereby remediating the errant flow automatically.

Embodiments of the disclosure provide a transfusion guiding robot and a guiding method for guiding a movement of a transfused person. The transfusion guiding robot comprises a controller, a moving portion and a fixing portion. The controller is configured to receive and process instruction information, and control the transfusion guiding robot according to the instruction information; the moving portion is configured to move according to a command from the controller; and the fixing portion is configured to fix a container, a height of the fixing portion being adjustable.

A stabilizing apparatus for a transcatheter delivery system includes a housing having an aperture to receive the transcatheter delivery system. An engagement member is disposed in the housing. A biasing element urges the engagement member against a surface of the transcatheter delivery system when the transcatheter delivery system is placed in the housing.

A collapsible air isolation apparatus is disclosed. The apparatus may include a collapsible frame including a base and a set of rigid panel or soft elements at least partially enclosing a volume of space, where each of the set of rigid or soft panel elements is foldably hinged to at least one of the base or another of the rigid or soft panel elements, and where at least one panel element of the set of rigid or soft panel elements includes an open space for mounting a motor for moving air. The apparatus may include mounting system attached to the base.

Method and apparatus for a portable enteral feeding platform having a telescoping two-piece upright column support which is height adjustable, being pivotally mounted onto a base so that the upright column can be pivoted forwardly onto the base into a storage position. In the upright position, the upright column support is both height adjustable and 360 degrees rotatable at its top where it supports an adjustable clamp wherein the clamp can be rotated 360 degrees and locked in place and wherein the adjustable clamp can be moved toward and away from the upright support column to a user selected position. The adjustable clamp is designed to receive and securely hold a syringe or like feeding tube. An optional base clamp is also provided for securing the base to a table top or like support surface.

This invention is directed to a sterile IV tube end cap including a housing attached to a panel; an end cap received in the housing and removably attached to the panel; so that when the IV-line end is attached to the end cap, the end cap cannot be removed from the IV-line end without removing the end cap from the housing. The end cap can receive the IV-line end wherein at least a portion of the IV-line end is received in the housing and the IV-line is secured to the panel so that the IV-line is supported by the panel, end cap, and/or housing.

A medical fluid bag rack for hanging bags containing medical fluid that includes at least one base section; at least two support arms which extend from the base section; and at least one bag rack arm. The at least one bag rack arm extends from the base section or from one of the support arms. Also disclosed are methods for manufacturing the fluid bag rack and devices.

Disclosed are methods and apparatuses for determining analyte concentration in a sample such as bodily fluid. Systems and methods disclosed herein can also include a treatment dosing system to infuse or inject a treatment dose (e.g. insulin, dextrose, etc.) and provide glycemic control. The dose of the treatment drug may be based on the patient's calculated sensitivity to treatment dosing, for example. The dose of the treatment drug may be based on the concentration of the analyte or the average value for the concentration of the analyte and/or the rate of change of the value of the concentration of the analyte. Delivery of the treatment drug can be cut off if the determined analyte concentration indicates that continued delivery would be harmful to the patient.

A device for selectively connecting mobile medical equipment, such as an IV pole, to a patient transport platform such that the medical equipment and patient transport platform can move together, thus providing a patient mobility while maintaining the patient's connection to the mobile medical equipment and therefore eliminating the necessity to disconnect an existing medical equipment (such as IV pole) and transfer the patient to a new medical equipment, while also allowing monitoring of patient movement and activity via electronics in the device.
