Disposable container for mobile medical cart
A medical cart having a chassis with a plurality of wheels attached thereto; a plurality of drawers supported on the chassis; a temperature-regulated compartment in the chassis; a locking bar pivotally attached to the chassis; a headwall mount attached to the chassis; a display mounted on the chassis; and a positionable task light attached to the chassis. Each drawer includes a drawer lock shiftable between a locked position and an unlocked position. The locking bar is shiftable between a locked position and an unlocked position so that the locking bar serves as a secondary safety lock for all the drawers and the door of the temperature-regulated compartment.
Apparatus for infusing fluid
A pump for pumping fluid includes a tube platen, a plunger, a bias member, inlet and outlet valves, an actuator mechanism, a position sensor, and a processor. The plunger is configured for actuation toward and away from the infusion-tube when the tube platen is disposed opposite to the plunger. The tube platen can hold an intravenous infusion tube. The bias member is configured to urge the plunger toward the tube platen.
Disposable infusion system enclosure
A one-time use plastic disposable lockbox enclosing an infusion system including the infusion device, method of delivery such as tubing, and source reservoir such as a fluid bag or syringe is provided. The lockbox includes first and second thermoplastic shells joinable along a separation plane to define a housing. The housing carries an IV bag volume abutting a periphery of a filled standard IV bag to restrain movement of that IV bag along the separation plane and a pump volume abutting a periphery of an IV pump to restrain movement of that IV pump along the separation plane. A channel extends between the pump volume and an exterior of the housing to allow egress of a standard IV line from the housing.
FEEDING SYRINGE HOLDER
In one aspect, a system is provided for administering a formulated food solution. The system includes a syringe body having a collar, a barrel, and at least one protrusion. The system includes a handle configured to be hung on a support and a holder body connected to the handle. The holder body has a central opening sized to receive the syringe body. The holder body includes at least one alignment portion configured to engage at least one protrusion of the syringe body and resist turning of the syringe body in the central opening of the holder body.
IV comfort and safety assist device and method
An intravenous fluid administration comfort and safety assist method may include deploying an intravenous fluid administration stand adjacent to a patient bed; suspending an intravenous fluid administration container on the intravenous fluid administration stand, the intravenous fluid administration container having an intravenous fluid administration line; obtaining an intravenous fluid administration comfort and safety assist device including a restraining member having a proximal restraining member end, a distal restraining member end and a line attachment member on the distal restraining member end, the distal restraining member end and the proximal restraining member end disposed within a common straight line; attaching the proximal restraining member end of the restraining member to the intravenous fluid administration stand; attaching the line attachment member on the distal restraining member end of the restraining member to the intravenous fluid administration line; and inserting the intravenous fluid administration line in a patient. An intravenous fluid administration line restraining assembly is also disclosed.
COVER FOR CONCEALING MEDICAL EQUIPMENT FROM PATIENTS AND VISITORS
A cover that conceals medical equipment with a backless configuration adapted to keep the medical equipment accessible to practitioners. The cover is further adapted to present a comforting front-facing component for the patient and/or visitors. The cover is made of medical grade plastic for preventing contamination and adverse reactions with the medical environment while facilitating sanitation of the cover.
Device for administering a radiopharmaceutical drug
An administration device that includes a hermetic container closed by a cap, containing a radiopharmaceutical medicament, and provided with a protective shield made of a radiopaque material. The device includes a support provided with attachment structure. The container is removably attached to the support in a position allowing access to the cap. The support includes a baseplate provided with an opening allowing access to the cap. A cover and rods connect the baseplate and the cover.
Syringe Plunger with Hinged Flange
A plunger for movably mounting within a cavity or barrel of a syringe. The plunger includes a contact face having a flange movably mounted thereto, wherein the flange is movable between an open configuration wherein an opening is formed between the flange and a portion of the plunger, the opening configured for engagement with an IV hook or other engagement member, and a closed configuration wherein the upper surfaces of the contact face and the flange are generally planar with one another.
Feeding syringe holder
In one aspect, a system is provided for administering a formulated food solution. The system includes a syringe body having a collar, a barrel, and at least one protrusion. The system includes a handle configured to be hung on a support and a holder body connected to the handle. The holder body has a central opening sized to receive the syringe body. The holder body includes at least one alignment portion configured to engage at least one protrusion of the syringe body and resist turning of the syringe body in the central opening of the holder body.
DOSING SYSTEMS AND APPROACHES
A drug delivery system includes a delivery container, a first drug insertion port, at least one additional drug insertion port, and an IV connection port. The delivery container includes upper, lower, first side, and second side portions, and further includes a tapered region extending between the first side portion and the second side portion. The first drug insertion port is positioned at the lower portion of the delivery container and has a first coupling mechanism. The at least one additional drug insertion port is also positioned at the lower portion of the delivery container, but includes a second coupling mechanism that is different than the first coupling mechanism. The IV connection port is positioned at the lower portion of the delivery container adjacent to a lower portion of the tapered region.
