PATIENT MEDICATION IV DELIVERY PUMP WITH WIRELESS COMMUNICATION TO A HOSPITAL INFORMATION MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

摘要

NEW ABSTRACT A wireless communication system from an IV medication infusion pump to a hospital information management system (HIMS) is disclosed. The system includes an IV pump having pump operation circuitry for monitoring pre-selected characteristics of pump operation indicative of IV administration of medication to a patient. A transmitter or transceiver is connected to the pump operation circuitry for receiving a wireless pump signal representing instructional data to the IV pump and for transmitting a wireless pump signal representing the pre-selected pump operation characteristics.
