    摘要: The invention provides a method for analyzing samples for different analytes. A plurality of assay resource stations are provided, each of which includes an assay resource capable of performing a predetermined operation upon a reaction vessel within a time cycle of fixed duration, as is an analyzer control means. Information identifying two samples and the analyte to be determined in each is provided to the analyzer control means. Assay resource requirements for the first assay are determined as a function of an integral number of time cycles and appropriate time cycles of each required assay resource are allocated to the first assay. Assay resource requirements for the second assay are also determined as a function of an integral number of time cycles and time cycles are allocated to the second assay according to the availability of the assay resources. The first and second assays are processed by automatically transferring each reaction vessel from one required assay resource station directly to the next required assay resource station.

    摘要: This invention provides an automated chemical analyzer with improved processing flexibility and ease. In one embodiment of this invention, the analyzer includes an incubation station, a wash station and a read station. The incubation station includes an elongated, movable track to carry reaction vessels along an incubation path, the wash station includes a movable track to carry vessels along a wash-cycle path, and the read station is adapted to move vessels along a read path. A first transfer station is positioned adjacent a first end of the wash-cycle path to transfer vessels from the incubation path to the wash-cycle path and a second transfer station is positioned adjacent a second end of the wash-cycle path and a first end of the read path for selectively transferring a vessel from the wash-cycle path to either the incubation path or the read path. Optimally, the first transfer station is positioned adjacent a second end of the read path, enabling the first transfer station to transfer a vessel from the read path to the incubation path, e.g., for disposal at a central waste container.

    摘要: The present invention provides an analyzer which permits clinical analysis of samples for multiple analytes with a variety of assay protocols in a multiple chronology sequence while operating on a predetermined fizzed length cycle method of timing control. In this analyzer, assay resources (e.g. an incubator belt, a wash station, and a signal detection apparatus) are assigned fixed operating sequences which begin and end within a time cycle of fixed duration. Samples may be transferred directly from one assay resource to another without unnecessarily occupying any unused resources. The invention also contemplates a method of analyzing samples consistent with use of this analyzer. In this method, different samples having different assay protocols may be entered into the analyzer. The assay resource requirements of the first sample are determined and "time slots" of the assay resources are allocated to that sample. The second sample, which may have a different assay protocol from the first, is entered and its assay resource requirements are determined, and available time slots of the assay resources are assigned to the second assay. By assigning "time slots" of the resources to the samples, flexibility and throughput of the system may be maximized without unduly complicating the scheduling logic and control.

    摘要: The present invention provides apparatuses and methods to safely and economically deliver infusion fluid to a patient during a medical procedure. The infusion fluid may be a sedative, analgesic, amnestic or other pharmaceutical agent (drug) for alleviating a patient's pain and anxiety before, during and/or after a medical or surgical procedure. In general the apparatus comprises a microprocessor-based controller that receives inputs from a plurality of physiological monitors attached to a patient. The system controller processes the data from the physiological monitors and based upon a fluid infusion algorithm delivers infusion fluid to a patient. The physiological monitors monitor the patient throughout the course of the procedure and depending upon the health of the patient, drug delivery may be adjusted to optimize the procedure while ensuring the patient's health is maintained. Functionality detectors such as an occlusion sensor, air-in-line sensor and a fluid detection sensor alert a clinician to such hazards as a pressure build up in the infusion line, air-bubbles in the infusion line, and the absence of fluid in the infusion line.
