Publication number: 20240387034Abstract: The disclosed systems and methods for reducing alarm strain generated by a medical device. A medical device for reducing generated alarm strain includes a display to present visually perceivable information, an audio output to present audibly perceivable information, processors coupled with the display and the audio output, and memory storing instructions that, when executed by the processors, cause the medical device to perform operations. The instructions, when executed, cause the medical device to receive a notification regarding the medical device. The notification is associated with an audible manifestation and a visual manifestation. The instructions, when executed, also cause the medical device to detect that a user is focused on the medical device, after said detection of the user, determine a volume adjustment to the audio output for presenting the audible manifestation, and adjust the audio output to cause presentation of the audible manifestations according to the volume adjustment.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 29, 2024Publication date: November 21, 2024Inventors: Lisa DIGGETT, Laura Ann COLLINS, Claire Ellen KNIGHT, Michael K.

Publication number: 20230321342Abstract: A syringe pump determines, upon receiving a new syringe, that at least a first portion of a predetermined amount of a first fluid was previously delivered by the syringe pump according to a first fluid delivery order before the new syringe was loaded into the syringe pump, and determines a second portion of the first fluid remaining to be delivered to complete the predetermined amount of the first fluid for the first fluid delivery order. A delivery of a second fluid is initiated by the syringe pump and, when an amount of the second fluid delivered from the new syringe satisfies the second portion of the first fluid remaining to be delivered, the pump automatically, without user intervention, indicates the first fluid delivery order as being complete, de-associates the first fluid delivery order from the syringe pump, and associates the syringe pump with the second fluid delivery order.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 21, 2023Publication date: October 12, 2023Inventors: Michael K.
