Abstract: The current subject matter describes a delivery of medication to a patient based on a scan of a medication container by a scanner implemented on an infusion system. The medication can include oral medications, injection medications, patches, and/or medication drops. The scanner can scan a machine-readable representation (for example, a barcode) on the medication container to obtain recommended delivery data. A user interface device of the infusion system can display the recommended delivery data on a graphical user interface. Based on the recommended delivery data and based on a patient diagnosis by a clinician, the clinician can determine actual delivery data. Based on the determined actual delivery data, the medication can be delivered to the patient via a non-infusion channel. Related apparatus, systems, techniques and articles are also described.

Abstract: The invention relates to a brake disc having a brake disc pot (42) and a friction ring (10) which is positively connected to the brake disc pot via toothing (50). The friction ring (10) comprises two friction ring halves (12, 14), wherein the toothing extends across only one of the friction ring halves. In this manner it is possible to mount through-passages (30) axially adjacent to the toothing running around the friction ring half on the interior circumference of the friction ring, said passages connecting the interior circumference of the friction ring to an interior ventilation arrangement of the friction ring. In this manner both a good force transmission and a stable positive connection is ensured between the friction ring and the brake disc pot, as is an efficient cooling by means of an interior ventilation of the friction ring.

Abstract: An identification system and method for medication management comprises a controller, a drug library accessible by the controller, the drug library containing drug library profiles including a data set of drug information, and an identification module configured to read patient identification information from machine-readable identification devices worn by patients and to read drug information from machine-readable identification devices affixed to drugs or containers of drugs. The controller compares the read information to each other and to the drug library profile and provides alerts or error signals in the event of an inconsistency. In one case, identification devices are read by an optical reader fixedly mounted to the identification module. In another case, identification devices are read by an optical reader that is hand-held and mobile and can be moved to the location of the identification device. The hand-held reader communicates with the identification module by wired or wireless means.

Abstract: A patient care system in which a physiological parameter of a patient is monitored while the patient self-administers analgesic. A display presents a trend of the patient's physiological parameter along with the time of self-administration of the analgesic (“PCA”—patient controlled analgesic) such that the effect of the analgesic on the physiological parameter can be seen over selectable time periods. The physiological parameter may be ETCO2 or SpO2 or other. Also included is a drug library having acceptable pumping parameters as well as other PCA specific data. Should the operator program a pumping parameter that is outside an acceptable range, or should the patient attempt to self-administer more analgesic than the acceptable range permits, or should a patient's physiological parameter change during infusion such that a pumping parameter becomes outside an acceptable range, an indication of such will be given and action, such as stopping the pump, will be taken.

Abstract: The diverter device can be configured to deflect a flexible conductor, such as a film conductor, in a variety of ways. A base flap, a diverter flap with a diverting edge, and a protective flap are pivotally connected to one another. In the final assembly state, the film conductor is clamped on the one hand between the base flap and the diverter flap, and is clamped on the other hand between the diverting edge and a protective flap. Via the diverting edge, it is thereby diverted for example by 90°. The diverter device enables a diverting of the film conductor without the undesired occurrence of high mechanical loads in the diverting region. The protective flap is thereby used in particular for the mechanical protection of the film conductor.
