SYSTEM FOR PERSONAL EMERGENCY INTERVENTION
First Claim
1. A system comprising:
- a processor;
a patient interface;
a user interface comprising an interactive voice response (IVR) system; and
a memory coupled to the processor and storing instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to;
receive a communication from a patient through the IVR system;
provide a guided voice prompt to the patient through the IVR system;
receive a response of the patient to the guided voice prompt through the IVR system;
analyze the response;
determine, based on the response, whether a command should be transmitted; and

Abstract
A system according to one aspect of the present invention comprises a processor, a device interface, a user interface, a data relay transceiver, and a memory coupled to the processor and storing instructions. The processor executes the instructions in the memory to receive data from a medical device through a wired connection using the device interface, and transmits the data to an intermediary device using the data relay transceiver. This system can be implemented in a small, portable unit that is easy for a patient to transport. The system'"'"'s user interface may include a microphone and speaker to allow the communication of audible information between the system and a user. Aspects of the system can be practiced automatically to allow a medical device for a patient or other subject to be monitored without requiring the patient to manually enter information.
