Abstract

This document relates to systems and techniques for providing response to emergency situations, such as traffic accidents, cardiac arrest, or other medical emergencies.

Claims

1. A system for reviewing medical events during patient treatment, the system comprising:

at least one medical device comprising a defibrillator or a defibrillator/monitor; and

a mobile computing device comprising;

a communication interface configured to communicatively couple the mobile computing device to the at least one medical device and receive patient data comprising medical information and associated timing information,

a display configured to provide a graphical user interface that provides the patient data and a map indicating a location of the at least one medical device, and

one or more processors and associated memory, the one or more processors configured to control the graphical user interface to provide the patient data and the map indicating the location of the at least one medical device.

2. The system of claim 1 wherein the mobile computing device comprises a cellular telephone.

3. The system of claim 2 wherein the communication interface is configured to communicatively couple the cellular telephone to the at least one medical device via a communication network.

4. The system of claim 1 wherein the communication interface is configured to communicatively couple the mobile computing device to the at least one medical device via the Internet.

5. The system of claim 1 wherein the one or more processors are configured to control the graphical user interface via a web browser interface.

6. The system of claim 1 wherein the location of the at least one medical device corresponds to a location of a patient associated with the at least one medical device.

7. The system of claim 6 wherein the map is indicative of the location of the patient associated with the at least one medical device.

8. The system of claim 6 wherein the map comprises an icon representative of the location of the patient.

9. The system of claim 8 wherein the icon provides at least a portion of the patient data.

10. The system of claim 6 wherein the map indicates locations of a plurality of medical devices and relative locations of patients associated with the plurality of medical devices.

11. The system of claim 6 wherein the map comprises visual indicia representative of a location of a user of the mobile computing device.

12. The system of claim 1 wherein the one or more processors are configured to control the graphical user interface to display the patient data in real-time.

13. The system of claim 1 wherein the patient data comprises emergency medical services (EMS) information.

14. The system of claim 13 wherein the EMS information comprises one or more of hospital emergency room information and urgent care transport information.

15. The system of claim 1 wherein the patient data is associated with one or more of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), defibrillation, drug administration, return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC), patient cooling, airway placement, and a diagnostic scan.

16. The system of claim 1 wherein the patient data is associated with one or more patient cardiac events.

17. The system of claim 16 wherein the one or more patient cardiac events comprise one or more of cardiac arrest and a myocardial infarction.

18. The system of claim 1 wherein the associated timing information comprises a timeline.

19. The system of claim 18 wherein the timeline comprises one or more medical events associated with the patient data.

20. The system of claim 1 wherein the communication interface is configured to receive information via radio frequency identification (RFID).
