Patent number: 11085812Abstract: A medication dispensing device may include a plurality of trays, each tray optionally including a load cell configured to measure a mass/weight of a medication contained in the respective tray. Each tray is placeable in a medication accessible position and a medication inaccessible position. The medication dispensing device includes a user interface configured to provide instructions and/or other information with regard to access for each medication. A processor provides instructions to selectively place each tray in the medication accessible position, and to determine, based on any change in the mass of the medication placed in the medication accessible position, whether the appropriate amount of the medication is removed from the tray.Type: GrantFiled: November 30, 2019Date of Patent: August 10, 2021Assignee: CARDINAL HEALTH COMMERCIAL TECHNOLOGIES, LLCInventors: Mark Allen Pilkington, Benjamin Eli Stormer, Daniel Lee Michael, Jason R Ertel, Vikki Nowak

Publication number: 20210023250Abstract: A sterilization, disinfection, sanitization, or decontamination system having a chamber defining a region, and a generator for creating a free radical effluent with reactive oxygen, nitrogen, and other species and/or a vaporizer. A closed loop circulating system without a free-radical destroyer is provided for supplying the mixture of free radicals from the generator mixed with the hydrogen peroxide solution in the form of the effluent to the chamber. The system is used in sterilizing, disinfecting, sanitizing, or decontaminating items in the chamber or room and, with a wound chamber, in treating wounds on a body. The wound chamber may be designed to maintain separation from wounds being treated. Various embodiments can control moisture to reduce or avoid unwanted condensation. Some embodiments can be incorporated into an appliance having a closed space, such as a washing machine. Some embodiments may include a residual coating device that deposits a bactericidal coating on sterilized items.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 24, 2018Publication date: January 28, 2021Inventors: Czeslaw Golkowski, Rick Shea, Jon Greene, Mark Golkowski, Danwei Ye, Robert Allen, Ben Parker, Sergey Makarov, Jason R.
