METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR SERIALLY TRANSMITTING RECORDS IN XML FORMAT
First Claim
1. A method for serially transmitting one or more records from a portable electronic medical device to an external device, wherein the portable electronic medical device comprises a memory and a processor, the memory is in electrical communication with the processor, the memory comprises the one or more records, each record comprises one or more data entries, the method comprises:
- having the processor parse an XML (Extensible Markup Language) template, the XML template including one or more XML elements associated with one or more data entries;
having the processor read the one or more records;
having the processor append the XML elements to the associated data entries of each record such that the appended data entries are in XML format; and
having the processor serially transmit the appended data entries of each record to the external device.

Abstract
A portable electronic medical device and method for serially transmitting one or more records from the portable electronic medical device are disclosed. The portable electronic medical device includes a processor and memory for storing the one or more records, each record having one or more data entries. An XML (Extensible Markup Language) template may be parsed by the processor, wherein the XML template has one or more XML elements associated with the one or more data entries. The one or more records may be read as well as the XML elements appended to the associated data entries of each record by the processor such that the appended data entries are in XML format. The processor may then serially transmit the appended data entries of each record.
