Devices, systems, and methods for patient support include arrangements of patient support tops, that are selectively connectible with a connection assembly, through a slide assembly allowing particular arrangement of the patient support tops. The patient support tops can be arranged for flip rotation to assist in positioning a patient's body. The connection assembly is arranged for receiving a tube connector of the patient top.

Surgical patient support and methods thereof

A time-based wireless pairing operation between a medical device, such as a patient bed, and a wall module in a patient room is initiated in response to a power plug of the medical device being plugged into a power receptacle carried by the wall module. Times determined by timers of the medical device and the wall module are compared by the wall module or by the medical device so that wireless pairing occurs only with the medical device that was plugged into the wall module. Different types of plug detectors used in the wall module to detect connection of the power plug include optical detectors, mechanical switches, and current sensors.

Time-based wireless pairing between a medical device and a wall unit

A limb support comprises a spar, a limb rest, and a coupler. The spar is configured to be supported from a patient support apparatus and adjustable relative to the patient support and has a longitudinal axis. The coupler includes a release that is actuable between a first position permitting movement of the coupler relative to the patient support and a second position preventing movement of the coupler relative to the patient support.

Adjustable restraint strap for a limb rest

A patient bed has a siderail that is movable to a raised position elevated over a central region of a mattress of the patient bed for use as part of a patient lift of the patient bed. In a lowered position, the siderail blocks egress of a patient from the mattress. In the raised position of the siderail, a sling arm is coupleable to the siderail and a sling is coupleable to hooks of the sling arm.

Patient support apparatus having patient lift

A patient support apparatus may include a mattress configured to receive a fluid from a pneumatic system, a graphical user interface, and a controller configured to control the pneumatic system and to communicate with the graphical user interface. The controller may control the graphical user interface to selectively display a home screen comprising a plurality of icons, the icons comprising a mattress function menu icon and a mattress function screen accessible via the mattress function menu icon. The mattress function screen may include at least one control input configured to activate a first state and a second state of the controller.

Devices, systems, and methods for patient support include arrangement of a patient support top for rotation and a rotation lockout assembly for selectively blocking against rotation of the patient support top.

Controls for surgical support apparatus

A user module for a patient support apparatus is provided. The user module has a user interface operably coupled thereto. The user interface includes an input device and an output device. The output device includes a visual display including textual and non-textual elements. The non-textual elements include enhanced, graphical, and animated portions relating to one or more operational features of the patient support or to a person positionable on the patient support. The input device includes one or more touch sensors corresponding to defined regions of the visual display.

User interface for hospital bed

A patient bed includes a drainage bag sensor. The patient bed includes, for example, a frame configured to support a patient, a drainage bag holder coupled to the frame and configured to support a drainage bag, and a sensor to detect a presence of the drainage bag being supported by the drainage bag holder.

A user module for a patient support is provided. The user module is coupled to a patient support barrier, such as a siderail or a footboard.

Rotation lockout for surgical support

A protective dressing includes an outer dressing and an adhesive layer. The outer dressing includes an opening and a cavity sized to receive a phase-change material (PCM) insert inserted through the opening. The adhesive layer is configured to adhere to a patient's skin surrounding an anatomic site. When adhered to the patient's skin, the PCM insert modifies the patient's skin at the anatomic site. The PCM insert may be removed and replaced with another PCM insert. For example, a warm PCM insert may be replaced with a refrigerated PCM insert. The opening of the outer dressing may be self-sealing. The opening of the outer dressing may be sealed with an upper layer dressing coupled to the PCM cooling insert.

Protective dressing with reusable phase-change material cooling insert

A patient support apparatus may include a support surface configured to conduct air along a top face of the support surface so that heat and moisture from a patient lying on the support surface are drawn away from the top face of the support surface. An opening may be formed in a side of the support surface. A cavity may extend from the opening into the support surface. An inlet port may be positioned within the cavity and fluidly coupled to the top face. A blower assembly may be configured to position within the cavity. The blower assembly may have an outlet port that couples to the inlet port when the blower assembly is positioned within the cavity. The blower assembly may conduct air through the inlet port to the top face of the support surface.

Patient support surface control, end of life indication, and x-ray cassette sleeve

A patient bed includes turn assist panels to rotate portions of a mattress. Some patient beds have siderails that are movable by a patient so that the patient can egress from the bed without interference from the siderails. Some patient beds have caregiver control panels for controlling features and functions of the patient bed, such as movement of the turn assist panels.
