Abstract: A heating cabinet for IV bags provides a uniform thermal field promoted by circulated heated air passing through air permeable shelves. Temperatures of the IV bags are modeled through a knowledge of a temperature of the uniform thermal field and arrival time of the IV bags eliminating a need for separate temperature sensors and control loops. Bag status may be signaled through modulated light distinguishable by individuals with limited color sensitivity. Signals are associated with particular IV bags by projecting the light of the signals into the IV bags themselves.

Abstract: An electrode includes an electrically conductive member having a first surface oriented to face the skin of a patient when the electrode is placed on the skin of the patient. The electrode further includes a housing member. The electrode further includes an abrasive member configured to abrade the skin of the patient. The electrode further includes an integrated gripping portion configured to allow an operator to grip the gripping portion by hand and abrade the skin by moving the electrode using the gripping portion.

Abstract: A key assembly for use in a lock. The key assembly includes a key shank having a toe end and a head end. The head end includes a pair of opposed spaced apart legs. An insert is disposed between the spaced apart legs, and has a pair of opposing faces. Material is overmolded onto the key shank head end and at least a portion of the insert. In one embodiment, at least a portion of at least one of the faces is not covered by the material to provide at least one surface for displaying indicia.
