摘要:
A medical ventilator cart, for use in hospitals or other medical settings, stores and transports various components of a ventilator system, such as a Breath Delivery Unit, a display monitor, and a compressor. First and second platforms are suspended above a base of the cart and allow the various ventilator cart components to be separately and independently placed on and removed from the cart without the need to move or rearrange any of the other ventilator components. One version of the cart provides an additional compressor platform attached to the base for mounting a compressor below the first platform.
摘要:
A computerized medication dispensing station that addresses anesthesia medication management and tracking problems is disclosed. Medications, including narcotic and non-narcotic, and supplies for use in anesthesia, are stored in secured, semi-secured, and unsecured containers of a mobile station. A computer housed in the station is used to track the anesthesiology items that have been removed from the station. For each item removed, the time of removal, who removed it, and to whom it was administered is tracked. Items that are not administered to a patient are returned to the pharmacy or wasted (i.e., disposed in accordance with regulations). Each type of event (administration to a patient, return, or waste) is documented so that a health care institution can track usage of items, including narcotic medications, for use in anesthesia.

Connection apparatus for connecting frame members and panel members is provided for constructing a storage building primarily from sheet metal. The apparatus utilizes connecting members that may be made from thermoplastic or metal materials. The number of threaded fasteners and time required to assemble the storage building is reduced dramatically from that of prior designs.
