Abstract: A patient lift system helps to lift and mobilize a disabled person in a home or in an institution with minimal effort from a caregiver. The patient lift system includes a lift, a carry bar and a hand control. The lift, the carry bar and the hand control have shapes and features that may be seen to facilitate quick and easy cleaning. Notably, gaps have been minimized for infection control purposes. Typically, a patient lift system includes an integral trolley for connecting the patient lift system to a track. For the patient lift system described herein, the trolley and lift system are separate pieces that are easily and quickly either attached or detached.

Abstract: A surgical lamp with a handle may be equipped with a touch sensor at the end of the handle. A touch on the touch sensor may be used to toggle the lamp between on and off states. Additionally, touches on the touch sensor may be used to cycle through various brightness levels. A twist on the handle may be used to cycle through color temperature options.

Abstract: Aspects of the present application relate to a bypass switch for a lamp, such as a surgical or diagnostic lamp. When activated, the bypass switch may act to allow electric power to bypass elements of a control board so that the electric power is provided to the plurality of lamp elements.

Abstract: A lamp is disclosed with a circuit board that is manufactured from a flexible material. The lamp may find particular use in a surgical or diagnostic environment. The flexible material allows the orientation of lamp elements to allow for a custom light beam. The flexible circuit board allows for interconnection between multiple lamp elements at different angles and rotation without having individual rigid circuit boards. Furthermore, the flexible circuit board may be mounted to a back panel, wherein the back panel is configured to act as a heat sink to dissipate heat generated, in operation, by the lamp element.

Abstract: A lamp with at least one specific operational mode is disclosed herein. An endoscopy mode may be engineered to allow the lamp to create an even glow. The even glow may be seen to allow members of a surgical team to easily locate lamp during an endoscopy procedure. Furthermore, the even glow may be seen to provide limited brightness so that team members may more readily locate equipment in an otherwise dark operating room. Subsequent to location, the equipment may be relocated within the operating room.

Abstract: A loss reporting system and method for tracking, monitoring and evaluating loss in an enterprise is provided. The system receives product data from enterprise facilities, stores the product data, calculates performance information from the product data, and compares the performance information to a predetermined performance standard. The system can generate a viewable report using the comparison between the performance information and the predetermined performance standard.

Abstract: A method for storing and organizing item arrangement information for an enterprise is provided. Standardized item arrangement maps are generated at the enterprise level and disseminated to stores within the enterprise. Managers create store maps consisting of compilations of the item arrangement maps provided by the enterprise. The resulting store maps define the arrangement of all items within the store. The store maps may be used in conjunction with an inventory system to order items and stock the store. Additionally, store maps may be used with a location information system to provide item location information to consumers.
