Abstract: A system and to automate the integrity check of a breathing system and inform a ventilator to deliver a compensated gas volume, and alert the user if a vital component of a breathing circuit is absent or not fully connected. The system and method utilize an open RFID tag on a first point of connection and a conducting ring on the second point of connection such that when a circuit connection is made, the open RFID tag becomes active and provides an RFID reader with data regarding the circuit connection.

Abstract: A system and method for monitoring and analyzing patient urinary output and a plurality of additional patient physiological parameters. The system comprises a plurality of patient connections and monitoring apparatus for monitoring a plurality of patient physiological parameters. The system further comprises a processor programmed to apply at least one analysis criterion to at least a signal indicative of patient urinary output. The processor further applies additionally more complex analysis criterion to a combination of patient urinary output data and at least one additional patient physiological parameter to provide an automated diagnosis of patient condition.
