Abstract
A system according to the present invention includes a processor, a device interface, a data relay interface, and a memory coupled to the processor. The memory stores instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to receive, using the device interface, data from a medical device. The memory further stores instructions to cause the processor to transmit a message including at least a portion of the received data, using the data relay transceiver, to a provided medical data server and to receive a command, using the data relay interface, from the medical data server.
