  • Patent number: 12263260
    Abstract: A disinfection cabinet can include a transportable cabinet frame having a horizontally disposed base, at least one vertically disposed bounding wall, a horizontally disposed top and at least two access doors mounted to the cabinet frame and providing access to an interior of the cabinet through two separate access door openings. Each of the access door openings can be positioned on an opposite side of the cabinet frame. The cabinet interior can include a rotating framework for holding items for disinfection within the cabinet. The rotating framework rotates about a vertical axis and has plural attachment points. At least two different types of item holders can be configured for attachment to the attachment points. Each type of holder can be configured for holding a different type of item to be disinfected. The cabinet can include at least one disinfecting light source positioned within the cabinet.

  • Patent number: 8620412
    Abstract: An apparatus that is able to detect the position of a catheter. The apparatus utilizes a catheter filled with electrically-conductive physiological saline and a connector for establishing an electrical connection between the saline of the catheter and an input of a controller. The controller includes at least one output connectable to a standard ECG lead connector, wherein the controller includes circuitry for generating a low impedance output signal. The controller provides an output which replicates the input a standard ECG patient lead connector is configured to receive. The apparatus provides a more convenient and cost effective solution for providing specialized ECG functions without having to replace a hospital's existing ECG beside monitoring equipment.
