Methods and systems for actively and adaptively deconstructively interfering with noise and vibration generated by medical devices. A method includes receiving, via user input, information associated with a configuration of the medical device or a physical environment proximate to the medical device. The method includes determining a signature signal for the medical device based at least on the information and sensor data from a sensor of the medical device configured to sense a characteristic of the physical environment proximate to the medical device, the signature signal representing physical attributes of the physical environment; and determining an inverted signal based on the signature signal. The method includes generating a physical representation of the inverted signal by one or more electrical or electromechanical components of the medical device, the physical representation of the inverted signal deconstructively interfering with the physical attributes of the environment represented by the signature signal.

Active adaptive noise and vibration control

An infusion pump includes a housing, a wireless transceiver, a pump motor mounted within the housing, a location sensor configured to provide information associated with a location of the infusion pump, a battery conductively coupled to the wireless transceiver, the pump motor, the location sensor and processor(s), and memory. The infusion pump is configured to monitor, using the location sensor, a geofence parameter of the infusion pump, determine a change in the location of the infusion pump based on the geofence parameter, identify an operation mode of the infusion pump associated with the geofence parameter, and automatically switch, responsive to the changed location, the operation mode of the infusion pump from a first mode currently programmed for care of a patient to a second mode, the second mode using different parameters than the first mode to control elements of the infusion pump.

Dual mode geofencing for medical devices

An integrated intravenous (IV) administration set includes a flow stop having a tubing fitment and a housing, the flow stop configured, in a first position, to prevent a flow of a fluid through the tubing, and in a second position, to permit the flow of the fluid through the tubing, the tubing fitment comprising a protrusion configured to receive a tubing. The IV administration set also includes an electronic flow sensor disposed within the housing, the electronic flow sensor configured to measure a flow of a fluid in the tubing, and one or more conductive connections configured within the housing and configured to provide electrical power to the electronic flow sensor. The flow stop is shaped to be loaded and engaged to a receptacle of an infusion device, and shaped to cause, when loaded and engaged, the one or more conductive connections to engage with a corresponding conductive connection provided by the infusion device to activate the flow sensor based on a power flow from the infusion device.

Integrated liquid flow closed loop sensing and control

A medical device is configured to monitor, using one or more sensors, an environmental condition of a physical environment proximate to a medical device, and to determine when a value representative of the environmental condition exceeds a threshold for safe operation of the medical device with regard to care of a patient. Responsive to the value exceeding the threshold, an operation mode of the medical device is automatically switched from a first mode currently programmed for the care of the patient to a second mode, the second mode using different parameters than the first mode to control the medical device.

Medical device adaptive control for hostile environment

Methods and systems for actively and adaptively cancelling the noise and vibration generated by medical devices. A method includes receiving data from one or more sensors of a medical device. The method includes determining a signature signal for the medical device based at least on the data. The signature signal is a representation of one or more physical byproducts of the medical device, and one or more environmental conditions of a physical environment proximate to the medical device. The method incudes determining an inverted signal based on the signature signal, the inverted signal configured to mask the signature signal. The method includes generating a physical representation of the inverted signal by one or more electrical or electromechanical components of the medical device, and masking the signature signal with the inverted signal.
