Systems and methods for intelligent patient interface device
First Claim
1. A system for use with one or more sources of patient-affiliated data, corresponding with a group of patients who have each been prescribed a medication for infusion pump administration, in the administration of medication to any patient of the group of patients, the system including:
- a plurality of infusion pumps, each operable to administer liquid medication to a patient, wherein each infusion pump of the plurality of infusion pumps includes an input to receive patient identification information and a computer readable memory that stores a database that comprises a plurality of patient records where each patient record of the plurality of patient records corresponds with a different patient of the group of patients and includes at least corresponding patient identification data and patient treatment data comprising prescribed medication data for the corresponding patient, and wherein the computer readable memory of each infusion pump of the plurality of infusion pumps stores logic to utilize a set of rules to;
select automatically the patient record of the plurality of patient records that is included in the database stored in the computer readable memory of the infusion pump corresponding with patient identification information received at the input of the infusion pump for any given patient of the group patients;
create a patient-specific guidance data set for the given patient of the group of patients utilizing the selected patient record of the plurality of patient records corresponding with the given patient that is included in the database stored in the computer readable memory of the infusion pump, wherein the patient-specific guidance data set is stored in the computer readable memory of the infusion pump and includes infusion parameters related to the prescribed medication data of the selected patient record corresponding with the given patient;
utilize the patient-specific guidance data set created for the given patient at the infusion pump in the administration of medication by the infusion pump to the given patient of the group of patients; and
automatically program the infusion pump to perform administration of medication to the given patient in accordance with the infusion parameters included in the patient-specific guidance data set;
an infusion pump gateway comprising a software program and a server interconnected to the one or more sources of patient-affiliated data and to each infusion pump of the plurality of infusion pumps to;
update automatically each of said databases stored at said plurality of infusion pumps utilizing patient-affiliated data corresponding with the group of patients and maintained by the one or more sources of patient-affiliated data.

Abstract
A system for use with one or more sources of patient-affiliated data corresponding with a group of patients. The system may contain a plurality of patient interface devices for interfacing with the group of patients. Each patient interface device may store a database that includes information related to each patient of the group of patients. Each patient interface device may be operable to generate a patient-specific guidance data set that may be used by the patient interface device to interface with a patient of the group of patients. The plurality of patient interface devices may be communicatively coupled to patient-affiliated data and a therapy database via a patient interface device gateway. The patient-specific guidance data sets may be automatically updated.
