MEDICAL DEVICE CREATED THROUGH RESOURCE LEVERAGE OF A HOST PROCESSING SYSTEM AND METHOD
First Claim
1. A method of a medical component comprising:
- automatically communicating a medical operating system to a host processing system from a memory location of the medical component when it is determined that the host processing system does not include a medical operating system optimized to operate with the medical component;
processing a confirmation from the host processing system that the medical operating system has repurposed the host processing system and that the medical operating system is now active on the host processing system;
capturing a patient reading through the medical component; and
leveraging at least one of a processing resource and an input-output (I/O) resource of the host processing system in providing a measurement of the patient reading to a user.

Abstract
A method, system, and apparatus of medical device created through resource leverage of a host processing system are disclosed. In one embodiment, a method of a medical component includes automatically communicating a medical operating system to a host processing system from a memory location of the medical component when it is determined that the host processing system does not include a medical operating system optimized to operate with the medical component, processing a confirmation from the host processing system that the medial operating system has repurposed the host processing system of the host processor and that the medical operating system is now active on the host processing system, capturing a patient reading through the medical component, and leveraging at least one of a processing resource and an input-output (I/O) resource of the host processing system in providing a measurement of the patient reading to a user.

13. A method of a host processing system comprising:
-
automatically repurposing the host processing system with a medical operating system communicated from a memory location of a medical component when it is determined that the medical operating system is optimized to operate with the host processing system and the medical component; activating the medical operating system on the host processing system such that the medical operating system takes precedence over the original operating system in a boot process of the host processing system when the medical component is coupled with the host processing system; processing a patient reading captured through the medical component using a processor module of the host processing system; and generating a measurement of the patient reading using the processor module of the host processing system and an application of the medical operating system. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16)

17. A system comprising:
-
a medical component to capture a patient reading and to provide a medical operating system optimized for the medical component; and a host processing system to couple with the medical component through a standard interface of the host processing system, and to replace an original operating system of the host processing system with that of the medical operating system when the medical component is coupled with the host processing system. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20)
