Abstract: An apparatus includes sheet material having a first layer, a second layer extending generally parallel to the first layer, and at least one enclosure extending between the first and second layers. The enclosure is at least partially filled with an antimicrobial composition. A housing supports the sheet material for movement relative to the housing. The housing has an opening through which the sheet material extends to dispense the sheet material. In another aspect, a housing has a space storing an antimicrobial composition. The housing is connected to a desired object to be disinfected.

Abstract: One aspect of the present disclosure relates to a system that can provide training for an operating room staff member. The system can include a hand device with a housing that can be configured to receive an input of a device from the operating room staff member. Inside the housing, the hand device can include a non-transitory memory that stores instructions and a processor that can be configured to execute the instructions to at least: provide an instruction related to placing a surgical instrument in the hand device to the operating room staff member; receive a test surgical instrument from the operating room staff member in response to the instruction; and determine whether the test surgical instrument matches the instructed surgical instrument.

Abstract: One aspect of the present disclosure relates to a system that can provide user-centric training. The system can include a touch screen that can be configured to receive a touch input from a user. The system can also include a non-transitory memory that stores instructions and a processor that can be configured to execute the instructions to at least: receive the touch input (that corresponds to a first node of a concept map related to a question) from the user in response to the question; create a user generated concept map based on a connection between the first node and a second node of the concept map related to the question; and score the touch input based on the connection in response to the question.

Abstract: A method for monitoring physiologic conditions of a patient includes inserting an esophageal or other suitable tube into the patient, the tube comprising a lumen having a proximal end, a distal end, and central portion, and a pressure sensor disposed about at least a portion of an outer surface of the lumen of the tube. The pressure sensor is capable of detecting a change in pressure when a force is exerted against the outer surface of the lumen. The tube is then positioned within the patient and an initial pressure reading of the pressure exerted against the pressure sensors disposed about the at least a portion of the outer surface of the lumen of the tube is taken. The method also includes monitoring changes in the initial pressure reading and, if needed, taking a second pressure reading.
