Drug delivery system with open architectural framework

摘要

A medical system comprises a) a first sedation system and b) a central station. The first sedation system comprises (i) a monitoring unit operable to monitor at least one physiological parameter of a patient, and (ii) a drug delivery unit in communication with the monitoring unit with the drug delivery unit operable to at least partially automate delivery of one or more drugs to the patient based on the at least one physiological parameter of the patient. The central station is in communication with the first sedation system. The central station is also in communication with at least one additional sedation system simultaneously and the central station is operable to store patient related data and is further operable to individually access the first sedation system and the at least one additional sedation system. Each sedation system is operated in accordance with a respective safety shell control algorithm and the central station is operable to remotely change the safety shell control algorithm associated with each sedation system.
