Abstract

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein Warnsystem sowie ein Verfahren für die Überwachung der Verfügbarkeit medizinischer Hilfsmittel (13) für einen Patienten (15). Das Warnsystem setzt sich aus einem am Hilfsmittel (13) oder einem Behältnis (14) für das Hilfsmittel (13) befestigbaren oder in das Hilfsmittel (13) oder Behältnis (14) integrierbaren ersten Signalgeber (1), der eine Sendeeinheit (3) zum Aussenden erster elektromagnetischer Signale aufweist, und einem vom Patienten (15) tragbaren zweiten Signalgeber (2) zusammen, der eine Warneinrichtung (10) zur Abgabe eines vom Patienten (15) wahrnehmbaren Warnsignals, eine Empfangseinheit (6) zum Empfang der von der Sendeeinheit (3) des ersten Signalgebers (1) ausgesendeten ersten elektromagnetischen Signale und eine Steuereinheit (8) aufweist, die bei Empfang der ersten elektromagnetischen Signale oder bei Unterschreiten einer vorgebbaren Empfangsstärke der ersten elektromagnetischen Signale und/oder bei Empfang einer bestimmten mit den ersten elektromagnetischen Signalen übermittelten Information die Warneinrichtung (10) zur Abgabe des Warnsignals ansteuert. Mit dem vorliegenden Warnsystem wird ein Patient zuverlässig darauf aufmerksam gemacht, wenn für ihn wichtige medizinische Hilfsmittel nicht mehr unmittelbar verfügbar sind.

The present invention relates to a warning system and a method for monitoring the availability of medical devices (13) for a patient (15). The warning system is made up of a first signal transmitter (1) which can be attached to the auxiliary device (13) or a container (14) for the auxiliary device (13) or can be integrated into the auxiliary device (13) or container (14) Transmitting first electromagnetic signals, and a patient (15) portable second signal generator (2) together, a warning device (10) for delivering a perceptible from the patient (15) warning signal, a receiving unit (6) for receiving the from the transmitting unit ( 3) of the first signal transmitter (1) emitted first electromagnetic signals and a control unit (8) which upon receipt of the first electromagnetic signals or falls below a predetermined receiving strength of the first electromagnetic signals and / or upon receipt of a certain transmitted with the first electromagnetic signals Information the warning device (10) drives to deliver the warning signal. The present warning system reliably alerts a patient when important medical aids are no longer immediately available to him.
