Abstract: The disclosed technology greatly improves the safety, accuracy, and efficiency of cleaning validation processes. Swabbing can be performed in a fully automated fashion. The cost and safety risk of confined-space entry is avoided. An equipment-inspection navigation device is disclosed, comprising an equipment mount base configured to attach to an equipment access port; an extension-pole control device connected to the equipment mount base; modular extension poles connected to the extension-pole control device; a test tool connected to the modular extension poles; a test-tool position-compensation sub-system connected to the modular extension poles; and a surface-contact-sensing sub-system connected to the test-tool position-compensation sub-system. The present invention solves a variety of problems heretofore encountered during swabbing processes, and is effective even for challenging surfaces, such as agitator shafts.

Abstract: A medical device for facilitating data direction to storage in a patient-specific electronic record is provided herein. In embodiments, the medical device visually presents patient data received from devices that more directly capture physiological data. The medical device is associated with a patient corresponding to the physiological data, and communicates the patient data to a centralized server for processing and forwarding to a database, which includes an electronic record that is specific to the patient. Then, the medical device may be dissociated from the patient.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media for transferring data from a medical device to a patient's electronic medical record are provided. Initially, a medical device and a patient are identified, such as by scanning a barcode or searching in an electronically-searchable database. Once identified, the medical device and the patient area associated, and data from the medical device is acquired and sent to a form that allows a user to edit the data or add other information. The user may then indicate that the data is ready to be transmitted to the patient's electronic medical record. The medical device and the patient may now be disassociated. The disassociation may be implicit, so that it is not required that a user provide an indication that the patient and medical device are to be disassociated. Rather, the disassociation may occur upon transmittal of the data to the patient's EMR.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to TPA connectors. The TPA connectors of the present disclosure can have a connector body that can include a plurality of cavities for receiving terminals. The TPA connectors can also include a retainer for locking the terminals in their seated position and for locking to the connector body to prevent unwanted removal thereof. The connector body can include posts with stop surfaces which can prevent the retainer from moving from a pre-lock position to a fully locked position by engaging contact surfaces on the locking arms of the retainer. The locking arms can be cantilevered and have outwardly directed projections to engage the posts for locking the retainer to the connector body. The locking arms can be deflected inwardly with a squeezing or pinching motion to disengage the contact surfaces from the stop surfaces of the posts and permitting the retainer to move to the fully locked position by pushing retainer towards the connector body.
