Abstract

A catheterization system including a catheter, drainage bag and one or more indicators configured to measure an attribute relating to the usage of the catheter system and communicate information aboutthe attribute to a network, such as an EMR database. The indicators may include a location indicator, a duration indicator, an elevation indicator, a tamper indicator, a dependent loop indicator, a floor contact indicator, and a patient securement indicator. The system may autonomously detect and record one or more attributes relating to the usage of the catheter system.

Description

[0001] priority [0002] This application claims priority to U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 62 / 675,103, filed May 22, 2018, which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety. Background technique [0003] The purpose of a Foley catheter is to drain urine from the bladder for various medical reasons. However, due to the inherent infection risk associated with Foley catheters, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention ("CDC") has published a list of recommendations for maintenance of Foley catheter systems. Hospitals may strive to comply with these recommendations, but may have difficulty monitoring adherence to care. Some institutions already implement routine checks of their patients using Foley catheters, but this takes time away from many other tasks that hospital personnel need to perform. Furthermore, often the patients using the Foley catheter system are seriously ill and require continuous and accurate monitoring of their vital signs, intake and o...
