First Claim
Patent Images
1. A targeted medical alarm system comprising:
- a network adapter configured to communicate with a plurality of terminal devices over one or more networks, each of the terminal devices being associated with a respective caregiver;
one or more data processors; and
a computer-readable medium storing instructions that when executed by the one or more data processors, performs operations comprising;
sending test data to each of the terminal devices;
receiving acknowledgement data indicating when the test data was received by the respective terminal device;
determining one or more latency-related values associated with each of the test data and the acknowledgement data;
updating reliability data based at least in part on the latency-related values; and
identifying a targeted terminal device to which a targeted message is to be sent based at least in part on the reliability data.

Abstract
A targeted alarm system is described that includes a network probe for sending test data to terminal devices connected to a network and deriving reliability data of the terminal devices and the network. When a targeted alarm message needs to be sent, the system identifies a targeted terminal device based on the reliability data for sending the targeted alarm message. Related methods, apparatus, and non-transitory computer readable media are also disclosed.

21. A method of targeted medical alarm for implementation by one or more data processors forming part of a least one computing device, the method comprising:
-
transmitting, by at least one data processor, test data to each of a plurality of terminal devices; receiving, by at least one data processor, an automatic acknowledgement from each of the terminal devices indicating when the test data were received; and determining, by at least one data processor, one or more latency-related values associated with the test data; updating, by at least one data processor, reliability data based at least in part on the latency-related values; and identifying, by at least one data processor and based on the reliability data, a terminal device to which a targeted message is to be sent. - View Dependent Claims (22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40)
