Abstract: A medical training and simulation system includes a plurality of inanimate objects, each being associated with an identification tag which stores an identification code which uniquely identifies an associated object. A database stores information of the objects. A reader reads a respective identification code of a selected object. An information retrieving processor retrieves the stored information which corresponds to the read identification code of the selected object. A device reproduces at least a portion of the retrieved information of the selected object.

Abstract: A patient carrier is hereby proposed for use in a radiation imaging suite, the patient carrier comprising at least one sensor configured to detect one or more parameters in a group of environmental parameters in the radiation imaging suite and physiological parameters of a patient positioned on the patient carrier, and an event initiator arranged to initiate an event in the radiation imaging suite based on the one or more detected parameters.

Abstract: A time management system for monitoring a patient in a healthcare facility is disclosed herein. The time management system comprises a monitoring device to monitor the progress of a procedure being undergone by the patient in the healthcare facility and output a monitored signal indicative of the progress of the procedure, as well as an indicator to indicate the progress of the procedure based on at least the monitored signal.

Abstract: Through changes in lighting and audio solutions together with projections of images and/or animations that are initiated by the entrance of a person (professional or patient) in a medical environment, such as a radiology department, cardiology department, intensive care unit, etc., a certain ambience/atmosphere is created in this specific architectural context. This ambience can be a choice from certain predefined themes (e.g. animal drawings for children or nature images) or truly personal when personal content (e.g. images of family or vacation) is inserted in the system.

Abstract: The invention relates to storage space (3) for elements (2) which are used in a medical activity, comprising a plurality of partitions (4) which are each dedicated to receiving a certain type of element (2) assigned to a predetermined medical activity, a user interface (6) for selecting a preferred medical activity from a plurality of medical activities, wherein each partition (4) comprises signalling means (5) which provide a signal, dependent on the selected medical activity, to indicate the correct element (2) to be used for the selected activity. In this manner the medical staff is offered ‘intelligent’ management of medical accessories and space, which helps the staff in organizing elements in an efficient and timesaving manner. In addition, a more flexible working environment contributes to the clinical staff feeling freer at work.
