Patent

CA 2213504

Automated tracking device for counting, sorting, weighing and containing articles, such as sponges, which contain fluids from patients undergoing surgery which consists of a suspended disposable container (32) for receiving and sorting the articles. The cumulative weight of the articles is sensed after a settling period by a load cell structure (36) which eliminates bending moments. Sensors (58) allow for detecting the presence of an article and continuous fluid monitoring. Appropriate warnings are issued after a predetermined number of articles is reached.

L'invention concerne un dispositif de gestion automatique qui permet, pendant une opération chirurgicale, de compter, de trier, de peser et de recevoir des articles, tels que des éponges, contenant des fluides provenant du patient opéré, lequel dispositif se compose d'un récipient jetable suspensu (32) destiné à recevoir et à trier les articles. Une structure de cellule de pesage (36) détecte le poids cumulé des articles reçus après une période de dépôt et élimine les moments de flexion. Des capteurs (58) permettent de détecter la présence d'un article et de contrôler en permanence les fluides. Des signaux d'avertissement appropriés sont émis lorsqu'un nombre prédéterminé d'articles est atteint.
