INTEGRATED WIRELESS COMMUNICATIONS FOR AUTOMATED EXTERNAL DEFIBRILLATOR (AED)
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- collecting, by a processor associated with an automated external defibrillation (AED) device, patient data associated with a patient;
identifying, by the processor and based on the patient data, a heart condition associated with the patient;
directing, by the processor, a user to apply defibrillation to the patient to address the heart condition; and
forwarding, by the processor, a notification to a dispatch device, wherein the notification identifies a location associated with the AED device and an indication that the defibrillation has been applied to the patient, and wherein the dispatch device directs emergency medical assistance to the location.

Abstract
An automated external defibrillation (AED) device includes a wireless interface to exchange data with one or more other devices. The AED device collects patient data associated with a patient and identifies, based on the patient data, a heart condition associated with the patient. The AED device directs a user to apply defibrillation to the patient to address the heart condition; and forwards via the wireless interface, a notification to a dispatch device. The notification may identify, for example, a location associated with the AED device. The dispatch device may direct emergency medical assistance to the location. The AED device may collect data, used to diagnose the heart condition, from a patient device and via the wireless interface. The AED device may further forward, to a user device and via the wireless interface, instructions guiding the user to use the AED device.
