Remote Monitoring Systems And Methods For Medical Devices
First Claim
1. A system for enabling the remote monitoring of at least one medical device, the system comprising:
- a device integrator server in communication with at least one wireless relay device, wherein said wireless relay device is configured to transmit data packets containing information provided by at least one medical device, wherein each said data packet includes identifying medical device data and at least a medical device identifier or a patient identifier;
a data manager system coupled to said device integrator server, said data manager system comprising at least a device control database, anda web server configured for providing web pages for receiving at least the medical data and, transmitting the medical device data to a first remote monitoring device via a secure internet connection for displaying the medical device data at the first remote monitoring device; and
transmitting at least a portion of the medical device data to a second remote monitoring device for displaying the portion of the medical device data at the second remote monitoring device.

Abstract
A remote monitoring system for monitoring a plurality of medical devices at a patient care or home care facility. The system includes a device integration server in communication with wireless relay modules for receiving data packets from the medical devices including an identifier and data for each medical device. The system also includes an outbound web server. The web server is configured to provide webpages including the data of the medical devices for display on first and second remote monitoring devices, subject to authentication of an associated data request from the monitoring device.

9. A method for displaying medical device data by a medical device monitoring system, the method comprising the steps of:
-
receiving credentials from a user of a first monitoring device and a request from said user for medical device information for a patient to be monitored; verifying said user is authorized to receive the medical device information; and if verification is achieved, then (a) identifying, based on at least said credentials and said request, an address for a secure patient database having information regarding said patient; (b) retrieving patient data and associated medical device identification data by a web server from said patient database over a secure communications link; (c) retrieving medical device data from a device control database for at least one medical device according to said retrieved medical device identification data; (d) transmitting said retrieved medical device data by said web server for display on said first monitoring device; and (e) transmitting at least a portion of the medical device data to a second remote monitoring device for displaying at the second remote monitoring device. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14)
