Abstract

A medical alert message handling method for a medical communication device is disclosed. The medical alert message handling method includes receiving a shift, a medical alert message classification configuration and a medical alert message priority configuration, receiving at least one medical alert message, filtering the medical alert message according to the shift to generate a personal alert message, displaying the personal alert message, filtering the medical alert message according to the medical alert message classification configuration and the medical alert message priority configuration, receiving a selection command to select one of the medical alert message, and noting a handling status and a handling problem of the selected medical alert message.

Claims

1. A medical alert message handling method for a medical communication device, the medical alert message handling method comprising:

executing a pre-setup process, which comprises receiving a shift, a medical alert message classification configuration and a medical alert message priority configuration;

receiving at least one medical alert message collected by at least one gateway and not processed by any processing system;

filtering and displaying the at least one medical alert message according to a display selection, wherein the display selection filters at least one medical alert message according to the shift, to generate and display at least a personal medical alert message or the display selection filters the at least one medical alert message not according to the shift, to display all medical alert messages;

filtering the at least one medical alert message according to the medical alert message classification configuration and the medical alert message priority configuration;

receiving a selection command to select one of the at least one medical alert message; and

executing a function, which comprises;

noting a handling status, a handling problem, calling for a care communication device and concluding the personal medical alert message of the selected medical alert message; and

updating and broadcasting the selected medical alert message to at least one other medical communication device.

5. The medical alert message handling method of claim 1, wherein the medical communication device broadcasts the shift, the medical alert message classification configuration, the medical alert message priority configuration and the updated a least one medical alert message to at least one other medical communication device via a Wi-Fi network, a 3G network or a 4G network.

14. The medical alert message handling method of claim 1, wherein the medical communication device rejects to receive the selection command, or the medical communication device receives the selection command, to assign the at least one medical alert message to a staff identification according to the selection command, and finish a temporary task assignment.

2. (canceled)

3. (cancelled)

4. (canceled)

6. (canceled)

7. (canceled)

8. A task handling method for a medical communication device, comprising:

receiving at least one medical alert message;

displaying the at least one medical alert message;

receiving an assignment command;

assigning one of the at least one medical alert message to a staff identification code according to the assignment command, to complete a task assignment;

updating the assigned medical alert message according to the task assignment to generate an updated medical alert message; and

broadcasting the updated medical alert message to another medical communication device.

9. The task handling method of claim 8, wherein the medical communication device receives the at least one medical alert message and broadcasts the updated medical alert message via a Wi-Fi network, a 3G network or a 4G network.

10. A medical alert message handling method for a medical communication device, the medical alert message handling method comprising:

receiving at least one medical alert message collected by at least one gateway and not processed by any processing system;

displaying the at least one medical alert message;

receiving a selection command to select one of the at least one medical alert message; and

noting a handling status and a handling problem of the selected medical alert message.
