  • Medical linen with regionally imprinted performance areas
    Publication number: 20010053643
    Abstract: A medical gown and drape are disclosed in which regions thereof are imprinted with performance enhancing coatings. The gown has regions in the chest and sleeve areas imprinted with a liquid repellent coating to protect the wearer from fluids. The drape preferably has an absorbent or super absorbent coating surrounding a fenestration through which an operation may occur. The drape may also have regions coated with water repellent or friction enhancing materials. The gown further has adhesive closures rather than ties.

  • System for detection of probe dislodgement
    Patent number: 5803915
    Abstract: A heat flux sensor is used in conjunction with a patient sensor, such as a patient temperature sensor, and which is secured to the patient in close proximity to the patient sensor. The heat flux sensor monitors the heat flux between the patient and the environment. Upon dislodgement of the patient probe, the heat flux sensor senses a change in heat flux that is of a predetermined amount and provides a signal indicating that the patient probe has become partially or fully dislodged from the patient. In the case of a patient heat sensor, the use of a heat flux sensor provides a quicker and larger signal than would be seen by merely monitoring the change in temperature due to partial or full probe dislodgement.
