OPTICAL SENSING-BASED INVENTORY CONTROL SYSTEMS AND METHODS
An inventory tracking system includes storage modules that hold one or more items. Each item is positionable at locations within the storage modules independent of physical characteristics of the item. Inventory monitoring modules are included to monitor storage modules for adding an item, retrieving an item, consuming of the item, returning an unused item, discarding at least a portion of a consumed item, or combinations thereof. Each act is used to determine information about items utilized in the act, including the location within the storage modules of the items. Each storage module updates a central inventory database about a location of the storage module, a revised inventory of the items stored within the storage modules, or both. The location of the storage modules, the revised inventory of the items stored within the storage modules, or both, is used to order a replenishment of the items held within the storage modules.
WHEELCHAIR BRAKE SYSTEM
A wheelchair brake system comprises: a brake which is provided in a wheel of a wheelchair; and a brake actuation controller which connects with the brake and locks and releases the brake, wherein the brake is usually in a lock mode, but the brake actuation controller controls the brake to be switched over from the lock mode to a release mode if sensing that a user sits down on the wheelchair or the wheelchair is folded up.
PATIENT LIFT ORTHOSIS
A patient lift orthosis system including an input controller and at least one orthosis. The at least one orthosis including an upper orthosis assembly and a lower orthosis assembly rotatably attached to the upper orthosis assembly via a joint. The at least one orthosis further including an output controller attached to at least one of the upper orthosis assembly, the lower orthosis assembly, and the joint, the output controller being in communication with the input controller. The at least one orthosis further including an actuator attached to at least one of the upper orthosis assembly, the lower orthosis assembly, and the joint, the actuator being in communication with the output controller. The output controller is configured to actuate the actuator to rotate one of the upper orthosis assembly and the lower orthosis assembly about the joint based upon an input communicated from the input controller.
LOCATION-BASED INCONTINENCE DETECTION
The present disclosure include devices, systems, and methods for location-based incontinence detection and monitoring including a communication device receiving incontinence event indicators occurrence and location indicators.
PATIENT LIFTING AND REHABILITATION DEVICE
A lift device includes two vertical extendible tower members, each of the two vertical extendible tower members including, at a first lower distal end, an omnidirectional wheel assembly, and a vertical extension assembly configured to simultaneously raise and lower the two vertical extendible tower members in a vertical direction. The lift device further includes a horizontal extendible transverse member connected between second opposing distal upper ends of the two vertical extendible tower members. The horizontal extendible transverse member further including a horizontal extension assembly configured to extend and retract the horizontal extendible transverse member in a horizontal direction perpendicular to the vertical direction, a traveler carriage configured to move in the horizontal direction upon the horizontal extension assembly between the second opposing distal upper ends of the two vertical extendible tower members, and a payload lifting device configured to raise and lower a payload in the vertical direction with respect to the traveler carriage on the horizontal extension assembly.
MOVEABLE MEDICAL DEVICES AND MONITORING METHODS THEREOF
A movable medical device is provided. The movable medical device may include a medical cabin configured to accommodate medical resources for providing multiple types of medical services and a movable platform configured to move the medical cabin to a desired location. The medical cabin may include a radiation room configured to accommodate a radiation device for providing a medical imaging service; a sample processing room configured to accommodate medical resources for providing at least one of a sampling service or a sample detection service; and a control room configured to accommodate a control platform used to control the radiation device for providing the medical imaging service.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR INDICATING AN OPEN PORTHOLE IN AN INFANT CARE STATION
A system for safely containing an infant on a mattress is described. The system includes a base that supports the mattress and panels that extend upwardly from the base and together form an enclosure around the mattress. A porthole is defined through at least one of the panels, where the porthole provides access into the enclosure. A porthole door has locked and unlocked positions and covers the porthole only in the locked position. A detection system detects when the porthole door is in the unlocked position. A lighting system is operatively coupled to the detection system and is configured to emit light when the porthole door is detected to be in the unlocked position. A power system provides energy to the lighting system for emitting the light.
User Control Device for a Transporter
A user control device for a transporter. The user control device can communicate with the transporter via electrical interface(s) that can facilitate communication and data processing among the user interface device and controllers that can control the movement of the transporter. The user control device can perform automated actions based on the environment in which the transporter operates and the user's desired movement of the transporter. External applications can enable monitoring and control of the transporter.
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR AUTOMATIC CONDITION MONITORING OF MOBILITY SYSTEMS
A system for monitoring a condition of a mobility system includes a number of sensors coupled to the mobility system, the number of sensors being structured and configured to generate data indicative of use of the mobility system during use, and a controller implementing a trained machine learning system. The controller is structured and configured to receive the data, characterize a lifecycle stage of the mobility system using the trained machine learning system based on at least the received data, and generate an alert for required maintenance for and/or predicted breakdown of the mobility system based on the characterized lifecycle stage.
Patient/invalid handling support
A patient support for supporting a patient includes an inflatable mattress defining a support surface and a pneumatic system for inflating the inflatable mattress. The pneumatic system includes a pressurized reservoir for holding pressurized air and selectively releases pressurized air from the reservoir to the mattress.
