20140221876 | PATIENT MOVEMENT NOTIFICATION DEVICE - A patient movement notification device is provided that includes a sensor pad for sensing movement of a patient and generating a signal when movement of the patient is sensed, and an electronics module for generating a notification of patient movement in response to receipt of the signal from the sensor pad. The patient movement notification device may be disposable. Accordingly, the electronics module may permanently shut down to become non-functional a specified time period after activation. Further, the electronics module may include a housing including a slot; a contact terminal disposed in the housing; a battery disposed in the housing; and a tab extending between the battery and the contact terminal and extending out through the slot, wherein the tab prevents the electronics module from receiving power until such time as a user pulls the tab from the slot. The housing may be sealed to prevent access to the battery. | 08-07-2014 |
