Medical device connector

Systems, devices and methods are described for mounting medical equipment on IV poles, bed rails and other supporting structures in medical facilities including operating rooms and critical care sections. A system including a mounting hanger and corresponding equipment housing is disclosed that allows quick mounting and dismounting of equipment from a supporting structure. The novel structural design of mounting hanger including a symmetrical t-slot feature and a plunger lock allows a piece of equipment to be mounted on a supporting structure in multiple orientations as per the requirement which allows a user to optimize the placement of equipment in the medical environment.

Systems and methods for mounting medical equipment

Systems to confirm authenticity of electrodes and to provide compatibility between a medical device and associated electrodes are described. The systems include an electrode connector that stores an authentication code that is accessible to the medical device when the electrode connector is coupled to the medical device. The medical device uses the authentication code to determine an authenticity of the coupled electrodes. The electrode connector also includes physical features of a housing that allow the electrode connector to couple to different versions (e.g., older and new models) of the type of medical device. This feature allows reverse compatibility of the electrode connector to different versions of medical devices.
