Abstract: Intelligent contrast warmers and methods for operating and using same are described. An intelligent contrast warmer may include elements configured to monitor information associated with the intelligent contrast warmer and contrast media stored in contrast bottles housed within the intelligent contrast warmer, such as contrast warmer temperatures, contrast warmer temperatures outside of specifications, contrast media inventory, expiration dates of contrast media, personnel authorized to access contrast media, and dates and times associated with contrast media added to and removed from the intelligent contrast warmer. A method for monitoring the expiration date of contrast bottles may include labeling the contrast bottles and reading the information from the label into a computing device. The computing device may be configured to monitor the expiration dates and to generate an alarm responsive to a current time being within a threshold duration of the expiration time for a contrast bottle.

Abstract translation: 描述了智能对比加热器及其操作和使用方法。 智能对比加热器可以包括被配置为监测与智能对比加热器相关联的信息的元件和存储在智能对比加热器内的对比瓶中的对比度介质，例如对比温度升高，规格以外的对比温度升高，对比介质库存，到期日期 的造影剂，授权访问造影剂的人员，以及添加到智能对比加热器和从智能对比加热器中移除的造影剂相关的日期和时间。 用于监测对比瓶的有效期的方法可以包括标记造影剂瓶并将信息从标签读取到计算装置中。 计算设备可以被配置为监视到期日期并响应于当前时间在对比瓶的到期时间的阈值持续时间内产生报警。
