Connected patient monitoring system and method to provide patient-centric intelligent monitoring services
First Claim
1. A medical system comprising:
- a remote patient monitoring system configured to generate and/or update a patient-specific configuration for a medical body area network (MBAN) system in response to a change in the patient condition; and
,the MBAN system controlled by the patient-specific configuration and including one or more sensor devices and a hub device, the sensor devices configured to measure physiological parameters of a patient, and the hub device includes a default configuration received from the remote patient monitoring system and is configured to;
monitor for a loss of network connectivity between the hub device and the remote patient monitoring system wherein the current configuration of the MBAN system is replaced with the default configuration in response to the loss of network connectivity; and
at least one of;
report the physiological data from the sensor devices to the remote patient monitoring system; and
,locally monitor the physiological data of the sensor devices to generate alarms.

Abstract
A medical system (10) including a remote patient monitoring system (40) and an medical body area network (MBAN) system. The remote patient monitoring system (40) is configured to generate and/or update a patient-specific configuration (60) for the MBAN system (12). The MBAN system (12) is controlled by the patient-specific configuration (60) and includes one or more sensor devices (16, 18) and a hub device (20). The sensor devices (16, 18) are configured to measure physiological parameters of a patient (14). The hub device (20) is configured to at least one of: report the physiological data from the sensor devices (16, 18) to the remote patient monitoring system (40); and locally monitor the physiological data of the sensor devices (16, 18) to generate alarms.
