摘要:
An infant care apparatus having a canopy movable with respect to an infant support for supporting an infant between a lower position enclosing the infant in an infant compartment and an upper position opening the infant compartment. The canopy has an opening and a door that can be closed to block the opening and opened to unblock the opening. A radiant heater is located in a fixed position above the infant support to direct infrared energy toward the infant support. When the canopy is in its lower position, a convective heating system warms the infant compartment. The door either closes as the canopy moves to its lower position or opens as the canopy moves to its upper position.
摘要:
A patient carestation for providing care to a patient including at least one environmental sensor sensing information concerning the environment surrounding the patient and providing electronic signals indicative of that environment. There are also physiological sensors sensing information relating to physiological conditions of the patient other than skin temperature and providing electronic signals indicative of physiological conditions of the patient. There may also be therapeutic sensors providing data based on therapy administered by peripheral apparatus and an input receiving patient information. A signal processor receives the signals from the physiological sensors, the environmental sensor, the therapeutic sensor and the patient information input and combines those signals into an integrated combination of signals for use by the caregiver. The integrated combination of signals can be used in a smart alarm or to generally appraise the caregiver at a central location as to the status of the patient.
摘要:
Systems and methods for controlling an alarm state, such as volume, based on the presence or absence of a caregiver in a patient's room. More specifically, a local sound producing device provides an audible alarm within a room when a caregiver is in the room, while a remote sound producing device provides an audible alarm external of the room when the caregiver is not in the room. Accordingly, volume levels of the sound producing devices depend on the sensed presence or absence of the caregiver within the room. For example, when the caregiver leaves the room, the local sound producing device is deactivated and/or the remote sound producing device is activated, thereby allowing the patient to enjoy a more relaxed environment within the room, yet still continue to be monitored. Conversely, when the caregiver enters the room, the local sound producing device is activated and/or the remote sound producing device is deactivated, thereby allowing the caregiver to monitor the patient when within the room, yet allow decreased monitoring external of the room.
摘要:
An infant care apparatus for providing heat to an infant. The infant care apparatus has an internal electronic communication device the allows it to send and receive information to and from the infant care apparatus for use by that infant care apparatus. A personal digital assistant (PDA) is provided that can communicate with the internal electronic communication device such that information can be exchanged between the internal electronic device and the PDA to allow a user to download information from the internal communication device to the PDA and to use to PDA to enter information into the internal electronic communication device to be used in the infant care apparatus.

摘要:
An infant transporter includes a transporter base, a support member secured to the base, and a housing supported by the support member. The housing includes a radio frequency coil adapted to emit a radio frequency configured to enable magnetic resonance imaging. The infant transporter exclusively comprises components that are magnetic resonance imaging compatible.
