A lockbox configured to securely mount an ambulatory infusion pump and a fluid bag containing an infusate to a pole securely stores and dispenses the infusate without impacting operation of the ambulatory infusion pump. A cradle is adapted to receive the ambulatory infusion pump. The lockbox is mounted to a pole by inserting screws from an interior of the lockbox housing through holes in the cradle and in the lockbox housing to terminate in a lockable pole clamp. The lockbox housing has an L-shaped configuration with first portion shaped and sized for the fluid bag and a second portion sized and shaped to accommodate the ambulatory infusion pump and to provide access to the ambulatory infusion pump for programming. The L-shaped configuration distributes weight evenly when the lockbox is mounted on the pole.

A system for electronic patient care includes a hub. The hub is configured to monitor a patient-care device. The sandbox may be configured to control access to at least one of a hardware resource and a software resource. The hub is further configured to identify the patient-care device and execute an application to monitor the patient-care device. The hub executes the application within the sandbox component such that the application accesses the at least one of the hardware resource and the software resource through the sandbox component. The hub may be further configured to control the patient-care device. The hub may be further configured to receive an identification from the patient-care device and download the application from a server associated with the identification. The hub may be further configured to receive an identification from the patient-care device and update the application from a server associated with the identification.

A hook attachment for an IV stand. The attachment has hooks attached to at least one longitudinally extending portion. The hooks are configured to position bags such that their labels are each visible from the same side of the hook attachment. The hooks may include first and second hooks coupled to first and second longitudinally extending portions, respectively. The first and second hooks are configured to have first and second bags, respectively, hung therefrom. The first and second longitudinally extending portions are sufficiently spaced apart vertically to allow the labels of the first and second bags to be visible. The hooks may include front and rear hooks connected to a longitudinally extending body portion. The front and rear hooks have first and second portions, respectively, whereat front and rear bags, respectively, are positioned when hung therefrom. The first portions are below the second portions.

The problem of infusing air into IV tubing and into a patient from a IV fluid bag inside a pressure infusion cuff is solved by collar embodiments that inhibit the air from being forced into the IV tubing. A collar can include one or more curved arms that create a channel in which that part of the fluid bag is protected against being squeezed by a pressure infusion cuff. A collar allows the fluid bag to be squeezed by the pressure infusion cuff until such time that the fluid level is sufficiently reduced that the collar can inhibit further pressure on the fluid bag by the pressure infusion cuff. Also disclosed is a fluid bag and a pressure infusion cuff that are modified to have a collar incorporated therewith.

A obstetric hemorrhage cart having a chassis riding on wheels, drawers supported by the chassis, a cooling apparatus such as a refrigerator in the chassis, a locking bar pivotally attached to the chassis, a scale drawer, a scale mounted in the scale drawer, and a positionable task light attached to the chassis. Each of the drawers may include a drawer lock shiftable between a locked position and an unlocked position. The locking bar may be lockable in a blocking orientation and shiftable to a non-blocking orientation when unlocked, thus serving as a secondary safety lock preventing the drawers and a cooling apparatus door from inadvertently opening during travel. The scale may have a weight surface and a scale display, and the scale drawer may have a window for viewing the scale display from a front of the chassis when the scale drawer is open.

A compact intravenous pump and medication container holder. The present invention has a substantially flat base having a peripheral edge with one or more sidewalls placed along the edge. The sidewalls are positioned substantially perpendicular to the base, forming an interior adapted to removably secure an intravenous pump. An arm is placed substantially perpendicular to the base on one side thereon and extends upward therefrom. The arm has a first end secured to the base, and a second end having a fastener adapted to support a medication container. A strap is affixed to one side of the base and is adapted to secure an intravenous pump to the base.

The present disclosure provides a liquid detection system for detecting a liquid level position of a liquid in a hanging bottle. The system includes a hanging bottle casing unit for determining the overall gravity of the hanging bottle, a hanging bottle cap unit for determining the liquid density in the hanging bottle, and a transmission unit for transmitting the overall gravity and liquid density of the hanging bottle to a server, and the server. The server is configured to determine the liquid gravity in the hanging bottle, calculate the liquid volume in the hanging bottle based on the liquid gravity and the liquid density, and determine a liquid level position based on the liquid volume.

A portable canister holder is disclosed. The portable canister system comprises a collapsible substantially cylindrical, non-rigid body assembly comprising a plurality of vertical support rods configured to support a plurality of horizontal support restraints. The vertical support rods pivot along with the horizontal supporting restraints, thereby collapsing the body assembly. The lowest horizontal support restraint further comprises a stopper to prevent the canister from being disconnected from the body assembly when in use. The portable canister holder further comprises an articulating joint member having a first end configured to attach to the body assembly and a second end configured to attach to a clamping device. The portable canister holder comprises an IV holder configured to attach to the body assembly, the IV holder having a plurality of rods configured to support an IV bag. The portable canister holder comprises a second IV holder configured to attach to the clamping device.

A hospital bed rail attachment apparatus constructed of molded silicone or another form of elastomeric substance. An embodiment of the present disclosure includes an elongated member having a first appendage, a second appendage, and a central portion extending between the first appendage and the second appendage. The first appendage may include a first protrusion and a first receiving portion being configured to receive the first protrusion. The second appendage may include a second protrusion and a second receiving portion being configured to receive the second protrusion. Embodiments of the present disclosure may include a pair of elongated members being configured to be selectively coupled to a container at a first end and a hospital bed rail at a second end.

The present invention relates to a method and medical device for tempering an infusion fluid for hypothermia purposes comprising a frame for introducing the device into one or more slots of a rack of given dimension and/or shape, the frame comprising at least one, preferably at least two rail(s) and/or hook(s) for inserting the device into the rack and at least one releasable lock for releasably locking it therein. Furthermore, at least one connector is provided for connecting the device with a central unit for controlling and/or monitoring the device which is adapted to also control and/or monitor at least a further medical device. At least one incoming port is connected to at least one source of infusion fluid adapted to contain infusion fluid during use. At least one pump is also provided for pumping the infusion fluid from the incoming port to an outgoing port, and at least one tempering device adapted to cool and/or heat the incoming infusion fluid to a preset temperature and/or temperature profile for delivering it to the outgoing port.
