A ventilation mask storage device ( 300, 400, 500 ) includes a body member ( 710 ) having a first side ( 712 ) and a second side ( 714 ). The body member first side has a recess that is shaped to receive and hold a ventilation mask ( 10 ). The body member also includes a connector ( 720 ) disposed on the second side of the body member that is configured to attach the device to one of a ventilator and a ventilator cart ( 75 ).
1. A system comprising:
a ventilation mask;
a body member having:
a first side and a second side, the first side defining a recess therein that is configured to receive and hold the ventilation mask; and
a connector provided on the second side of the body member that is configured to attach the body member to one of a ventilator and a ventilator cart, the connector including a hollow post extending from the second side of the body member, the hollow post being configured to be fitted over a post connected to the one of the ventilator and the ventilator cart, an interior surface of the hollow post including a raised feature configured to engage a corresponding indent of the post.
2. The system of claim 1 , further including:
a disinfection system configured to disinfect the ventilation mask when the ventilation mask is connected to the hollow post.
3. The system of claim 2 , wherein the disinfection system includes an ultraviolet (UV) light.
4. The system of claim 3 , further including:
a switch configured to selectively supply power to the UV light.
5. The system of claim 1 , further including a hose extending through the first body member lower wall U-shaped aperture and connected with the ventilation mask.
6. The system of claim 1 , further including a ventilator or ventilator cart attached with the connector.
7. A system comprising a ventilator or ventilator cart and a device connected with the ventilator or ventilator cart, the device including:
a body member having:
a first side and a second side, the first side defining a recess therein that is configured to receive and hold a ventilation mask; and
a connector provided on the second side of the body member that is configured to attach the device to the ventilator or the ventilator cart, the connector including a hollow post extending from the second side of the body member, the hollow post being configured to be fitted over a post connected to the ventilator or the ventilator cart, an interior surface of the hollow post including a raised feature configured to engage a corresponding indent of the post.
8. A device, comprising:
a ventilation mask; and
a holder, having:
a first side and a second side, the first side having a recess formed within a portion thereof, the recess having dimensions substantially corresponding to dimensions of the ventilation mask; and
a connector extending from the second side of the holder, the connector being configured to attach the holder to at least one of a ventilator and a ventilator cart, the connector including:
a hollow post extending from the second side of the holder; and
a raised feature extending from an interior surface of the hollow post;
wherein the ventilation mask, when inserted into the recess, fits within the recess with a friction fit; and
wherein the hollow post is configured to be fitted over a post connected to the at least one of the ventilator and the ventilator cart such that the raised feature engages a corresponding indent of the post.
9. A system comprising a ventilator or ventilator cart and the device of claim 8 connected with the ventilator or ventilator cart.
