    Abstract: An electronic module for a modular patient care system is disclosed. The electronic module can include a housing having an attachment side configured to releasably attach to an adjacent electronic module. A latch mechanism can be configured to engage a catch member on the adjacent electronic module to secure the attachment side to the adjacent electronic module. An electrical connector positioned on the attachment side can be configured to electrically connect to an adjacent electrical connector on the adjacent electronic module. A sensor coupled to the housing can be configured to detect movement of the latch mechanism indicative of at least one of engagement or disengagement of the latch mechanism from the adjacent electronic module.

    Abstract: A disposable integrated endoscope integrates two light-emitting diodes (LED) and two CMOS image sensors on the front end of the endoscope, which not only can avoid the use of expensive light-guide prisms, be made as a relatively inexpensive and disposable integrated endoscope, but also provide a clearer 3D image of the internal tissues or organs of human body by means of the light emitted by the LEDs. In addition, by furnishing a heat dissipation structure having a heat-pipe at the front end of the endoscope, the high heat generated by the image sensors at the front end of the endoscope can be quickly dissipated to the rear end of the endoscope to achieve a good heat dissipation effect, so as to avoid scalding human tissues due to the temperature of the front end of the endoscope reaches 48° C. or above.
