Abstract
A patient support apparatus for supporting a patient includes first, second, and third transceivers mounted at first, second, and third locations, respectively. A controller is adapted to use radio frequency communication between the first, second, and third transceivers and an infusion pump to determine a position of the infusion pump relative to the patient support apparatus. The controller, and/or a server in communication with the controller, is configured to double-check a dosage of medication being delivered via the infusion pump to the patient in order to help avoid incorrect dosing. The controller and/or server are adapted to automatically retrieve dosage information from the infusion pump, either directly or indirectly, and use the dosage information in combination with the patient's weight, as determined by a scale system on the patient support apparatus, to issue an alert if too high of a dosage is being administered to the patient.
