Patent Images
1. A cap comprising:
- a first end and an opposite second end;
a first engagement portion on the first end of the cap configured to removably couple to and cover a first injection port of a first injection site;
at least one first information element on an outer surface of the first engagement portion of the cap positioned proximate the first end of the cap to be automatically sensed by at least one first sensor of the first injection site when the first engagement portion is coupled to or is being coupled to the first injection port;
a second engagement portion on the opposite second end of the cap configured to couple to and cover a second injection port of a second injection site; and
at least one second information element on an outer surface of the second engagement portion of the cap positioned proximate the second end of the cap to be automatically sensed by at least one second sensor of the second injection site when the second engagement portion is coupled to or is being coupled to the second injection port,a disinfectant to disinfect the first injection port upon the coupling of the first engagement portion with the first injection port,wherein the at least one first information element is configured to record a first type of activity, and wherein the at least one second information element is configured to record a second type of activity different than the first type of activity, wherein the at least one first information element encapsulates data characterizing a disinfection state of the first injection port, and wherein the at least one second information element encapsulates data characterizing a procedural step performed on the patient.
