Method of temporarily viewing a physiological parameter of another
First Claim
1. A method of displaying, on a display of an electronic device, a physiological parameter of at least a first individual having associated therewith a first biomedical sensing device and a second individual having associated therewith a second biomedical sensing device, the method comprising the steps of:
- initiating a communication link between the first biomedical sensing device and the electronic device such that information packets related to the physiological parameter of the first individual are transmitted from the first biomedical sensing device and received and processed by the electronic device;
displaying, on the display, the physiological parameter of the first individual based on the information packets received and processed by the electronic device; and
while maintaining a wireless communication link between the first biomedical sensing device and the electronic device, the method further comprises the steps of;
initiating a wireless communication link between the second biomedical sensing device and the electronic device such that information packets related to the physiological parameter of the second individual are transmitted from the second biomedical sensing device and received and processed by the electronic device;
displaying, on the display, the physiological parameter of the second individual based on the information packets received and processed by the electronic device.

Abstract
A method of displaying, on a display of an electronic device, a physiological parameter of at least a first individual having associated therewith a first biomedical sensing device and a second individual having associated therewith a second biomedical sensing device, the method comprising the steps of, while maintaining a wireless communication link between the first biomedical sensing device and the electronic device, initiating a wireless communication link between the second biomedical sensing device and the electronic device such that information packets related to the physiological parameter of the second individual are transmitted from the second biomedical sensing device and received and processed by the electronic device; and displaying, on the display, the physiological parameter of the second individual based on the information packets received and processed by the electronic device. An arrangement that carries out the foregoing method is also contemplated hereby.
