Abstract:

A cable-tubing organizer system is provided for storing and organizing wire leads and tubing extending from monitoring equipment used in an operating room or other patient care environment. The organizer system includes a monitoring lead assembly, a transducer support device, and a transport plate. The monitoring lead assembly includes a plurality of clips, mounted on a base plate, for containing one or more coils of wire or tubing extending from operating room monitoring equipment. The monitoring lead assembly includes an attachment mechanism for securing the assembly to an operating table or any suitably convenient structure. The transducer support device includes a transducer bracket for securing a transducer holder that contains several different transducers. The transducer bracket translates vertically on a slotted plate for adjustment to patient chest level. The transducer support device includes a brace for containing wire leads or tubing and a base for insertion between an operating table and a mattress. The transport plate includes a transducer holder and a plurality of clips mounted on a breast plate for containing one or more coils of wire or tubing extending from a transducer.

International Classification:

A61M 500
F16L 300

US Classification:

Abstract:

A containment and guide arm for various leads extending from operating room monitoring devices such as a pulse oxygen metering unit and an EKG unit including a generally tubular member which is attachable to any stationary surface within the operating room or other such environment. A plurality of guide members are attached to the generally tubular member, each guide member including a plurality of guides or clamps for containing one or more leads extending from operating room monitoring devices thereby preventing the leads from being strewn about the operating room and hindering activity of doctors and nurses during operations. The containment and guide arm of this invention has similar application in other medical environments.
