Application: Techniques for transporting autonomous patient support apparatuses and medical equipment to an incident scene (Patent ID: US20240185979A1)
The patent filed by Stryker Corp describes a method and system for transporting medical equipment modules to an incident scene using an autonomous mobile response unit. The system includes a remote dispatch center, communication device, drive system, navigation system, and controller to control the movement of the autonomous mobile response unit. The method involves determining the initial and refined locations of the incident scene, dispatching the vehicle with the equipment modules, communicating the refined location to the response unit, generating a drive path, and driving the response unit to the refined location.
Additionally, the system can include an autonomous patient support apparatus with a base, caster wheels, support frame, patient support surface, and lift mechanism. The drive system includes auxiliary wheels for movement, and the navigation system generates the drive path for the response unit. The method also involves dispatching a first responder equipped with tracking devices to establish patient contact at the refined location, transmitting data associated with the medical equipment modules, and manually dispensing the equipment modules onto the response unit based on the transmitted data.
