DYNAMICALLY ASSOCIATING AND DISASSOCIATING PATIENTS AND MEDICAL DEVICES

摘要

Systems, methods, computer storage media, and user interfaces are provided for dynamically associating and disassociating patients and medical devices. A signal communicated via a Bluetooth personal area network is received when a patient is in proximity to a medical device. In various embodiments, the signal originates with a patient wristband or the medical device. The medical device is automatically associated to the patient. When the signal is no longer being received, the medical device may be automatically disassociated from the patient. Data associated with the medical device may be communicated to an EMR associated with the patient. A mobile device associated with a clinician may be communicated with via the Bluetooth personal area network.

主权项

1. One or more computer storage media having computer-executable instructions embodied thereon that, when executed by one or more computing devices, cause the one or more computing devices to perform a method for automatically associating a patient to a medical device, the method comprising:
receiving a signal, at a medical device, the signal originating from a patient wristband associated with a patient in proximity to the medical device and communicated via a Bluetooth personal area network; recognizing the patient wristband associated with the signal; identifying a patient associated with the patient wristband; and associating the patient to the medical device.
