207 MODULAR NEONATAL INTENSIVE CARE SYSTEM US12649645 2009-12-30 US20100168502A1 2010-07-01 Stephen E. Delaporte; Michael J. Gazes; Thomas J. Keefe
A modular neonatal intensive care system including an infant incubator, bassinet and frame is provided. The infant incubator of the present disclosure is configured for reducing the overall cost and/or minimizing the amount of power that the neonatal care system or infant incubator draws. A number of the features also make the design more appropriate for the conditions in developing countries. The neonatal care system is also integrated with a hospital bassinet which is made up of a bassinet bed and a frame. The frame for the bassinet acts as both a structural support system and a means for transportation when the neonatal care incubator is attached at the top of the frame.
208 Incubator US12553669 2009-09-03 US20100076248A1 2010-03-25 Satoshi IBARA; Terumi Matsubara; Eiji Koike; Shinichi Kobayashi; Naoki Honma; Hidetoshi Sato; Kazuo Matsubara
An incubator according to the present invention will be able to prevent accidents to the incubator itself or other devices, a doctor, a nurse or others causing external force even if the external force is applied to a canopy of a newborn chamber. An optical detector in a control mechanism detects application of external force to the canopy of the newborn chamber, and a signal output section in the control mechanism outputs a signal that renders a driving mechanism for lowering and raising the canopy non-operational when the application of external force is detected. Accordingly, even if external force is applied to the canopy by bump, contact, putting some object or others, the driving mechanism will not continue or start to lower or raise the canopy while the external force is applied to the canopy because the driving mechanism will be rendered non-operational.
209 Humidification control system for infant care apparatus US11315769 2005-12-22 US07442163B2 2008-10-28 Lawrence G. Ten Eyck; Daniel F. Strauch
An infant care apparatus for supporting an infant upon an infant platform having a humidification control system. The user can initial select a manual mode where the humidity is inputted through a user input to control the humidity within an infant compartment. The system has an automatic mode where the user can then input humidity levels and a successive time periods to establish a protocol for controlling the humidity within the infant compartment over the time period the infant is being treated within the infant care apparatus. Each successive time period inputted by the user has a different humidity level associated herewith. As a further feature, there is an evaluation system to monitor whether the infant has been overstressed by any of the automatic reductions in the levels of humidity.

211 Infant care apparatus with fixed overhead heater US10672948 2003-09-26 US07282022B2 2007-10-16 Steven M. Falk; Matthew L. Severns; Joseph Boris; Michael H. Mackin; Christopher A. Dykes
An infant care apparatus having a canopy movable with respect to an infant support for supporting an infant between a lower position enclosing the infant in an infant compartment and an upper position opening the infant compartment. The canopy has an opening and a door that can be closed to block the opening and opened to unblock the opening. A radiant heater is located in a fixed position above the infant support to direct infrared energy toward the infant support. When the canopy is in its lower position, a convective heating system warms the infant compartment. The door either closes as the canopy moves to its lower position or opens as the canopy moves to its upper position.

215 Canopy adjustable mounting system for infant warming apparatus US10727896 2003-12-04 US07108653B2 2006-09-19 Michael H. Mackin
An infant warming apparatus having a canopy movable with respect to an infant support between a lower position where the canopy mates with an upper peripheral edge of vertical walls extending upwardly from the infant support to enclose the infant in an infant compartment and an upper position opening the infant compartment. There is an adjustable mounting system that allows the canopy to be initially moved along and rotated about various axes in order to align the canopy with the vertical walls during the assembly of the infant warming apparatus. Once properly aligned, the canopy can be fixed in a desired orientation and/or allowed some motion between the canopy and the vertical walls to assure of a correct alignment of the canopy with the walls to create an isolated infant compartment.
216 Unobtrusive measurement system for bioelectric signals US11153620 2005-06-16 US20060041196A1 2006-02-23 Robert Matthews; Igor Fridman; Paul Hervieux
A system for unobtrusively measuring bioelectric signals developed by an individual includes multiple sensors, one or more of which constitutes a capacitive sensor, embedded into or otherwise integrated into an object, such as a chair, bed or the like, used to support the individual. In one preferred embodiment, multiple capacitive sensors are incorporated into a pad provided in an incubator for unobtrusively measuring bioelectric signals from a baby under supervised care. In any case, the object serves as mounting structure that holds the sensors in place. The sensors are preferably arranged in the form of an array, with particular ones of the sensors being selectable from the array for measuring the bioelectric signals which are transmitted, such as through a wireless link, for display and/or analysis purposes.
217 Steering system for medical transport cart US10898030 2004-07-22 US20060016009A1 2006-01-26 Sean Mannix
A transport cart for attaching to a patient care apparatus, such as an infant care apparatus to move that infant care apparatus from one location to another. The transport cart is dockable to the infant care apparatus forming an overall footprint of the combination transport cart/infant care apparatus. The infant care apparatus has casters to provide mobility thereto and the transport cart has a rearward portion with casters and a forward portion that docks with the infant care apparatus that has a roller that is rotatable about a fixed horizontal axis and, when the transport cart is docked to the infant care apparatus, the roller becomes located at or proximate to the center of the footprint of the combination transport cart/infant care apparatus. By the use of the centrally located roller, the user can more readily steer the combination apparatus by directing the rearward portion of the docking cart.
218 Fuel cell powered patient transport cart US10782032 2004-02-19 US20050183895A1 2005-08-25 Matthew Severns
A transport cart for attaching to a patient care apparatus, such as a patient bed or infant care apparatus and is used to move that patient care apparatus from one location to another. During that transport, the transport cart supplies electrical power to the patient care apparatus or peripheral equipment attending to the care and monitoring of the patient. There is, therefore, a source of power on the transport cart that moves with the transport cart and enables that transport cart to provide the electrical power. The electrical source on the transport cart is a fuel cell such that the cart can continue to supply the electrical power to the patient care apparatus for so long as there is a supply of fuel on the transport cart to operate the fuel cell. With the use of a fuel cell, there is no need for considerable periods of downtime that is currently necessary for recharging one or more batteries on the transport cart and thus the transport cart of this invention is more readily available to the hospital personnel.
219 Closing device for a flap on an incubator hood US10842133 2004-05-10 US20050020872A1 2005-01-27 Markus Hampe
A closing device for a flap on an incubator hood or thermotherapy apparatus hood is equipped with flaps, which make access possible to the premature or newborn baby from the outside. A closing device for the flap (1) on an thermotherapy apparatus hood (3) is provided which guarantees reliable closing. A roller (9) at a second closing element (5) extends behind a first closing element (4). The roller (9) is mounted on an axle (8) with a clearance in a range of 1.5 mm to 2.0 mm in a direction perpendicular to the direction in which the axle (8) extends, so that an undefined state of the closing device, in which the roller (9), though touching the first closing element (4), does not extend behind it, is avoided.
