1. A medical device system, comprising:
- at least one defibrillator having a device transceiver configured to wirelessly transmit a device signal including unique identifier data; and
an information system comprising a mobile transceiver, at least one display device, at least one processor, and at least one database, wherein the information system is configured to maintain an active list of medical device inventory associated with a particular emergency, and the at least one processor is configured to;
automatically determine presence of the at least one defibrillator in response to the mobile transceiver receiving the device signal;
measure a signal strength of the device signal;
estimate a distance between the at least one defibrillator and the mobile transceiver based on the measured signal strength;
provide an indication on the at least one display device if the at least one defibrillator is present, andprovide an indication of the estimated distance between the at least one defibrillator and the mobile transceiver.
