摘要:
A patient care system is disclosed that includes a medical device such as an infusion pump. The medical device generates a data message containing information such as the status of the therapy being delivered, operating data or both. An alarm generating system assesses the data message from the pump and generates an alarm message if certain conditions established by a first set of rules are met. The alarm message is assessed according to a second set of rules as to whether to suppress the alarm message. The data message contains a required input for both the first and second algorithms. A dispatching system is adapted to forward the alarm message to an alarm destination according to a third set of rules. The alarm destination expresses an alarm upon receipt of the alarm message.

An infusion system includes a pump, a fluid delivery line, a sensor, a processor, and a memory. The fluid delivery line is connected to the pump for delivering fluid. The sensor is connected to the fluid delivery line for emitting and receiving signals to detect whether there is air in the fluid delivery line. The processor is in electronic communication with the pump and the sensor. The memory is in electronic communication with the processor. The memory includes programming code for execution by the processor. The programming code is configured to analyze the signals to determine if a stuck fluid droplet is stuck within the fluid delivery line at a location of the sensor.

An assembly and method of identifying and visually associating individuals and medical equipment includes a computing device having a software algorithm that determines a unique combination of one or more human cognitive identifiers to avoid confusion and displays the determined selection on an electronic skin located on the individual or medical equipment so that identities and associations amongst individuals and equipment can be understood readily.
摘要:
A system, computer readable medium, mobile subscriber device and method determine that the device (306), operating on a first communications system is detecting a triggering event, which may be the detection of a wireless local area network border cell (210) or a degradation in signal quality. The device (306) then initiates a registration sequence with a second wireless communication system if the device (306) has detected the triggering event, determines the speed and/or displacement of the device (306), and conducts any present and subsequent calls via the second wireless communication system if the speed and/or displacement of the device exceeds a predetermined threshold. The registration sequence may be aborted if at least one of the speed and displacement of the device (306) does not exceed predetermined thresholds. Movement of the device (306) may be determined by an accelerometer (314) or GPS chipset.
摘要:
A method (FIG. 11) and corresponding wireless communication unit (102, FIG. 5) and mobility manager (116, FIG. 6) for facilitating a handover from one communication network (106) to another communication network (108) of an ongoing communication (120, 122) between a wireless communication unit (102) and a peer communication unit (114, 714). The method including obtaining call information (1103) corresponding to the ongoing communication where the ongoing communication uses the first communication network; and ascertaining a handover number (1105) for use by the wireless communication unit to originate a handover call (1107) via the second network (108), the handover number terminating within the first communication network for use in facilitating the handover of the ongoing communication to the second communication network.
摘要:
Circular call forwarding loops are prevented for a communications unit (12) capable of operating in a first communications network (14) and a second communications network (16) within a loosely coupled network (16), and respectively having a first network number and a second network number, as well as a first network voice mail. A call directed to the first network number (50) of the communications unit is forwarded to the second network number (52) of the communications unit when the communications unit is not operating in the first network. A first network voice mail number (P3) may be associated with calls so that calls are forwarded directly to the first network voice mail (56) when received again at the first network (54). Alternatively, if a call is subsequently received from the second communications network, and data of the subsequently received call matches data of the initial call, or if call forwarding indicia associated with the forwarded call is also associated with the subsequent call, the subsequent call is then forwarded to the first network voice mail of the communications unit.
摘要:
A method and system for monitoring and managing a remote infusion regimen where a prescribed infusion regimen is provided and compared to subsequent infusion event data to determine if the data falls within predetermined parameters. If the data does not fall within predetermined parameters a monitoring technician, supportive caregiver, patient or some combination thereof are immediately notified so that corrective action may be taken.
摘要:
A system, wireless device (306) and method determine that a wireless device (306) is detecting a triggering event. The triggering event includes detecting a WLAN border cell (210), detecting a first signal from an egress portal (302), or detecting a degradation in signal quality. The wireless device (306) then detects at least one signal from an egress portal (302), determines that the wireless device (306) is moving from the coverage area of a first communications system to the coverage area of a second communications system according to the order of signals received from the egress portal (302), initiates a registration sequence with the second wireless communication system in response to determining that the wireless device (306) is moving from the coverage area of the first communications system to the coverage area of the second communications system, and conducts present and subsequent calls via the second wireless communication system.
摘要:
A network controller (200, 300) corresponding communication device (400) and method for providing a caller identification to a called party comprises a receiver (202) for receiving a communication and a corresponding first identifier from a communication device (400), a controller for selecting a second identifier from a plurality of identifiers, each of the plurality of identifiers corresponding to the communications device (400), and a transmitter (204) coupled to the controller for providing the second identifier as the caller identification to the called party. The communication device (400) may be used to select the second identifier as well as signal a second communication infrastructure (300) to block calls before forwarding from the second communication infrastructure (300) to the first communication infrastructure (200).
