Patent number: 8577692Abstract: A method and apparatus is disclosed for operating a medical device with a screen having an improved graphical user interface, which selectively reallocates screen display for both single and multi-channel pumps. Channel indicators associate operation information with a specific delivery channel. Patient or drug order verification is facilitated with a rendering of the patient or the entire drug order/label on the screen. Decimal numbers are presented in vertically offset decimal format. A dual function button cancels the current operation and, after a delay, clears entered parameters. An area sensitive scrollbar cycles through information at various speeds. Screen brightness is adjusted based on an ambient light detector. A screen saver mode activates based on several operating conditions. The screen is incorporated in a removable user interface.Type: GrantFiled: May 13, 2011Date of Patent: November 5, 2013Assignee: Hospira, Inc.Inventors: Raymond P. Silkaitis, Bernardino Rubalcaba

Patent number: 7895053Abstract: A medication management system (MMS) includes a medication management unit (MMU) associated with a medical device. The MMU downloads medication delivery code based on a medication delivery order to the medical device only if information from a first input matches information from a second input. The medical device receives delivery information electronically 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, sequence and dynamically adjust) medication order performance.Type: GrantFiled: August 31, 2004Date of Patent: February 22, 2011Assignee: Hospira, Inc.Inventors: Geoffrey N. Holland, Patrick B. Keely, Jeff Pelletier, Charles P. Moran, Raymond P. Silkaitis, John W. Huang, Bernardino Rubalcaba, Jr., Martin A. McNeela, Imtiyaz Haque
