A method, related system and apparatus are disclosed. The method is implemented by an operative set of processor executable instructions configured for execution by a processor. The method includes the acts of: determining if a monitoring client is connected to a base through a physical connection; establishing a first communications link between the monitoring client and the base through the physical connection; updating, if necessary, the interface program on the monitoring client and the base through the first communications link; establishing a second communications link between the monitoring client and the base using the first communications link; and communicating data from the base to the monitoring client using the second communications link.

System, method, and apparatus for electronic patient care

A medication management system (MMS) includes a medication management unit (MMU) associated with a medical device. The MMU downloads a medication order to the medical device only if information from a first input matches information from a second input. The medical device receives delivery information only from the MMU. The medication order is performed only after delivery data validation. The MMU also determines drug-drug incompatibility. The MMU can modulate (start, stop, and dynamically adjust) medication order performance. The medical device wirelessly receives a patient ID to automatically associate with the patient. During delivery, the medical device caches an updated drug library to replace an existing one. The medical device displays a patient picture for validation. The MMU evaluates the performance of medical devices and caregivers based medical device feedback. The MMU adjusts the output of medical device information conveyed to a caregiver.

Medication management system

A modular external infusion device that controls the rate a fluid is infused into an individual's body, which includes a first module and a second module. More particularly, the first module may be a pumping module that delivers a fluid, such as a medication, to a patient while the second module may be a programming module that allows a user to select pump flow commands. The second module is removably attachable to the first module.

Modular external infusion device

Embodiments are directed to portable infusion devices, systems, and methods of using the same for dispensing materials. In some cases, the devices, systems and methods may be used for infusing a material such as medicament, e.g., insulin, into a body in need thereof.

Infusion pump system with disposable cartridge having pressure venting and pressure feedback

A method and system is disclosed for operating a medical device with or without a cassette in place. A method is disclosed for adding additional VTBI to an ongoing infusion without stopping the infusion and with maintaining the infusion parameters. A method and system is disclosed for changing the CCA without having to interrupt or completely stop an ongoing infusion. Quick titration buttons are provided to allow improved navigation between various delivery display screens.

User interface improvements for medical devices

A method for operating an infusion pump is disclosed comprising: providing a pumping apparatus having an infusion pump and a processor operably coupled thereto; and a memory operably coupled to the processor, the memory comprising a library of selectable user interface screens stored therein. The library may include at least one sub-library. The method further includes the step of providing an operator-interface operably connected to the processor and comprising a touch screen. The operator interface receives input commands, displays input command prompts, and transmits at least input commands to the processor. The method also comprises: receiving an input transmission of a selected sub-library; providing at least one input prompt corresponding to the selected sub-library; receiving an input transmission of a selected input command from the touch screen; transmitting the selected input command to the processor; converting the selected input command into an output command; and, transmitting the output command to the pumping apparatus.

Tomorrow’s Critical Design Competencies: Building a Course System for 21st Century Designers

An intravenous bag for use with an intravenous line includes a fluid cavity, a flange at least partially surrounding the fluid cavity, and one or more identification tags removably coupled to the flange without compromising the integrity of the fluid cavity. At least one of the identification tags is associated with contents of the fluid cavity and is attachable to the intravenous line for associating the intravenous line with the contents of the fluid cavity.

Purpose – This paper aims to cover the authors' experience with applying the latest methodologies in identifying and articulating product opportunities within a large, global corporation and dynamic marketplace.Design/methodology/approach – The study conducts a course of multiple explorations in identifying and articulating product opportunities within a large, global corporation and dynamic marketplace.Findings – The paper finds that identifying product opportunities is a large and at times fuzzy activity. As experts bring insights and improvements to light, the application of those within a large corporate context can be daunting. Over the course of multiple explorations key lessons emerge to improve the reliability of such endeavors. Building a repeatable process to identify new product opportunities requires the use of multiple methods from a range of fields to minimize blind spots that each inevitably have. The process also requires a non‐linear approach to allow the company's context and data at han...

The discipline of product discovery: identifying breakthrough business opportunities

In this paper, we discuss a simulation method that allows students to experience the many typical and often underlying forces of product management and design. Given the dynamic nature of strategy and product portfolio management, it is often difficult to convey the actions necessary to juggle multiple and sometimes conflicting constraints or opportunities within a business context. For the past five years, over 200 students in 15 offerings of a Product Portfolio Management class have been using this simulation technique to combine the different perspectives of business and design and how they inform strategic decisions over time. The simulation has been successful at helping design students understand the dynamics involved in product management and how design choices can influence, and be influenced, by business forces. In particular, it helps the students extend their thinking beyond a single product or service into the considerations necessary to manage an entire portfolio of products and services. It also gives them insights into competitive issues beyond cash flow efficiency and profitability, so they come to realize, for instance, that competitors do not necessarily share the same objectives – making it possible for more than one organization to “win” at the same time.
