Zusammenfassung: | Disclosed are various methods and devices for facilitating medical and/or procedures that are performed without "general anesthesia," which is also described in the specification as the state of patient "unconsciousness" resulting from a drug administered by an anesthetist or anesthesiologist. The devices safely and effectively provide and maintain drug infusions that do not push the patient into unconsciousness and/or general anesthesia. Devices according to embodiments of the invention include the use of stored parameters and/or values that correlate to drug delivery during a procedure, and a patient health monitor to measure and send signals regarding a patient health condition to a processor or other computational device. |
