Medical treatment system and method for operation thereof

摘要

A medical device comprises a device adapted to perform a medical procedure; a biometric information sensing device adapted to sense biometric information of a user; a controller adapted to retrieve stored biometric registration information of a user from a storage device in communication with the controller, to determine an identity of the user by comparing the stored biometric registration information and the sensed biometric information, and to prevent performance of the medical procedure if the sensed biometric information does not correspond to the stored biometric registration information.

1. A method of comparing biometric information for performing a medical procedure, comprising:
sensing biometric registration information from a user; storing the biometric registration information in a database such that the biometric registration information is correlated with an identity of the user; sensing biometric information from the user with an information sensing device of a system adapted to perform an optical medical procedure, wherein the information sensing device is adapted to scan at least a portion of an eye of a user to obtain diagnostic information related to the eye of the user and to sense the biometric information from the user; determining whether the biometric information from the user sensed by the information sensing device of the system adapted to perform the optical medical procedure corresponds to the stored biometric registration information correlated with the identity of the user; allowing performance of the optical medical procedure if the biometric information from the user sensed by the information sensing device of the system adapted to perform the optical medical procedure corresponds to the stored biometric registration information correlated with the identity of the user, and preventing performance of the medical procedure if the biometric information from the user sensed by the information sensing device of the system adapted to perform the optical medical procedure does not correspond to the stored biometric registration information correlated with the identity of the user; wherein the step of sensing biometric registration information from the user is performed using a biometric information sensing device of a registration device, the biometric information sensing device being separate and distinct from the information sensing device of the system adapted to perform an optical medical procedure; wherein the biometric information sensing device of the registration device is configured to sense a biometric parameter associated with the biometric registration information at a first accuracy level and the information sensing device of the system adapted to perform an optical medical procedure is configured to sense the biometric parameter associated with the biometric registration information at a second accuracy level different than the first accuracy level.
