Abstract
A system and device for implementing an integrated component package in a medical device are provided. An integrated component package includes a set of components utilized by the medical device to deliver a therapy to patient and/or monitor a condition of a patient. The integrated component package can provide language-specific instructions, memory and power resources, and medical supplies for patient use. Further, the integrated component package can configure various medical device operational parameters on a medical device.
Claims105
An integrated component package, the package comprising:
- one or more medical device components operable to be utilized in conjunction with the operation of a medical device;
- and
- at least one transducer device operable to communicate with the medical device.
A medical device comprising:
- an external medical device component interface operable to connect to a medical device component associated with an integrated component package;
- and
- an external transducer interface operable to be connected to an external transducer device associated with the integrated component package;
- wherein the external medical device component interface and the external transducer interface are operable to interface with the integrated component package.
A medical device system, the system comprising:
- a medical device having an external transducer interface;
- and
- an integrated component package having one or more medical device components operable to be utilized in conjunction with the operation of the medical device, and a transducer device operable to communicate with the external transducer interface of the medical device;
- wherein the integrated component package is removably coupled to the medical device.
A medical device system, the system comprising:
- a medical device having power interface means and transducer interface means;
- and
- an integrated component package having power source means to deliver a power source to the medical device and transducer means to communicate with the transducer interface means;
- wherein the medical device and the integrated component package are removably coupled.
An integrated component package, the package comprising:
- one or more medical device components operable to be utilized in conjunction with the operation of a medical device;
- at least one transducer device operable to communicate with the medical device;
- a programmable data source having language-specific data thereon, the language-specific data operable to generate a language-specific interface on the medical device;
- and
- a data interface operable to transmit the language-specific information to the medical device.
A medical device comprising:
- an external transducer interface operable to communicate with a transducer set;
- and
- an external data interface operable to obtain language-specific medical device data from a programmable data source, the language-specific medical device data for providing a language-specific user interface;
- wherein the the external transducer interface and the external data interface are operable to interface with one or more external component packages.
A medical device system, the system comprising:
- a medical device having an external data interface;
- and
- an integrated component package having one or more medical device components operable to be utilized in conjunction with the use of the medical device, a transducer device operable to communicate with the external transducer interface of the medical device, and a programmable data source having language-specific data operable to generate a language-specific user interface on the medical device, the programmable data source operable to transmit the language-specific data to the external data interface of the medical device;
- wherein the integrated component package is removably coupled to the medical device.
