1. A method of tracking changed parameters in a plurality of medical infusion pumps, each of the medical infusion pumps having first, common metadata associated therewith by which to communicate a defined device identifier for that medical infusion pump and second metadata associated therewith by which to communicate operational data collected by that medical infusion pump, the method comprising:

  • programming each medical device to have the first common metadata and the respective second metadata;

    establishing communication sessions between the medical infusion pumps and a medical device server;

    in respect of each of the medical infusion pumps, communicating a packet of information including the first metadata and defined device identifier for that medical infusion pump and the second metadata and an original parameter value of operational data, an updated parameter value of operational data, and a final parameter value of operational data from that medical infusion pump to the medical device server;

    at the server, processing each packet of information to determine the defined device identifier communicated with the first metadata; and

    storing the original parameter value, the updated parameter value, and the final parameter value of the operational data in relation to the second metadata of each respective medical infusion pump on the medical device server for the respective medical infusion pump in relation to the defined device identifier of the first metadata of that medical infusion pump.
