Abstract
A method for determining a spatial location of at least one patient data gathering device includes the steps of receiving at least one signal from a geolocation system and analyzing the at least one signal to determine the spatial location of the at least one patient data gathering device.
Claims20
A medical equipment management system comprising:
- a location system configured to receive one or more signals from a geolocation system;
- a defibrillation device that includes one or more sensors comprising electrodes configured to couple to a patient and configured to gather medical data from the patient, the defibrillation device having associated therewith a defibrillation device identifier;
- at least one processor configured to:
- determine a geospatial location based on the one or more signals received from the geolocation system, and
- transmit the geospatial location and the defibrillation device identifier for reception by a remote device;
- and
- the remote device comprising one or more processors that are configured to:
- receive the geospatial location and the defibrillation device identifier from the at least one processor,
- generate a device map having a defibrillator icon graphically illustrated at the geospatial location, and
- show information about a relative location of the geospatial location with respect to a location of the remote device.
A non-transitory computer readable medium within a mobile device, the non-transitory computer readable medium having instructions stored upon that, when executed by one or more processors of the mobile device, cause the one or more processors to carry out operations comprising:
- receiving one or more signals from a geolocation system;
- determining a mobile device geospatial location based on the one or more signals received from the geolocation system;
- receiving a defibrillation device geospatial location, wherein the defibrillation device geospatial location comprises geographic coordinates of a defibrillation device and an altitude or an elevation of the defibrillation device;
- generating a device map having a defibrillator icon graphically illustrated at the defibrillation device geospatial location;
- and
- showing information about a relative location of the defibrillation device geospatial location with respect to the mobile device geospatial location.
