INFUSION MODULE ADAPTER

Abstract: an infusion module adapter system couples a control unit of a patient care system to an infusion pump. the adapter system includes a first interconnect system on a first side and a second interconnect system on a second side. the first interconnect system includes a mechanical connector having first support contacts for mechanical coupling to the control unit; and a logical connector having first power contacts and first communication contacts for logical coupling to the control unit. the second interconnect system includes an integrated connector having second support contacts, second power contacts, and second communication contacts for mechanical coupling and logical coupling to the infusion pump. the adapter system further includes power conversion circuitry configured to convert a power signal between the first power contacts and the second power contacts, and processing circuitry configured to convert messages between the first communication contacts and the second communication contacts.
