Abstract
Elements (), which are used in a medical activity, are stored in a storage space () including a plurality of partitions () which are each dedicated to receiving a certain type of element () assigned to a predetermined medical activity. A user interface () selects a preferred medical activity from a plurality of medical activities. In response to the input activity, the partition () which holds the corresponding element () signals to indicate the correct element () to be used for the selected activity. In this manner the medical staff is offered 'intelligent' management of medical accessories and space, which helps the staff in organizing elements in an efficient and time- saving manner. In addition, a more flexible working environment contributes to the clinical staff feeling freer at work.
