Application: Communication tool and uwb-equipped patient devices (Patent ID: US20240172997A1)
The patent filed by Stryker Corp describes a portable tool that can communicate with an ultra-wideband (UWB) equipped patient support apparatus or locator unit. The tool includes a housing, a transceiver for communication with a computer, a first UWB transceiver to communicate with a second UWB transceiver, and a controller. The controller can obtain an identifier from the second UWB transceiver, determine its location onboard the patient support apparatus, and forward this information to the computer for display. Additionally, the tool can measure the distance between the UWB transceivers, assess the quality of UWB signals, retrieve error codes, and even send software updates to the device based on proximity.
Furthermore, the portable tool can also communicate with a locator unit mounted at a fixed location within a healthcare facility. It can determine whether the second UWB transceiver is onboard the patient support apparatus or locator unit, forward this data to the computer, measure signal quality, retrieve error codes, and send software updates. The tool is versatile and can be used to update software on devices, determine distances between transceivers, and issue notifications based on predefined thresholds, enhancing communication and functionality within healthcare facilities.
