Abstract
A defibrillator or monitoring system may comprise a defibrillator, at least one video camera configured to acquire a video of a subject being treated by the defibrillator, a data collection unit configured to collect data associated with the subject, a communications unit configured to establish a communication channel between the defibrillator system and an emergency response center; and a processing unit configured to cause transmission to the emergency response center of at least one of the video of the subject and the data associated with the subject.
Claims40
A defibrillator system comprising;
- a defibrillator;
- a video camera configured to acquire a video of a subject being treated by the defibrillator;
- a data collection unit configured to collect data associated with the subject;
- a communications unit configured to establish a communication channel between the defibrillator system and an emergency response center;
- and
- a processing unit configured to cause transmission to the emergency response center of at least one of the video of the subject and the data associated with the subject.
A method comprising:
- acquiring a video of a patient being treated by a defibrillator, the defibrillator forming part of a defibrillator system;
- collecting data associated with the subject;
- establishing a communication channel between the defibrillator system and an emergency response center;
- and
- based on an available bandwidth of the communication channel, causing transmission to the emergency response center of at least one of the video of the subject and the data associated with the subject.
A defibrillator system comprising:
- a defibrillator;
- a plurality of video cameras each configured to acquire a video of a subject being treated by the defibrillator;
- a communications unit configured to establish a communication channel between the defibrillator system and an emergency response center;
- and
- a processing unit configured to:
- cause transmission to the emergency response center of a plurality of images, each image acquired by one of the plurality of video cameras,
- receive, from the emergency response center, a selection of one of the plurality of video cameras, and
- cause transmission to the emergency response center of the video acquired by the selected one of the plurality of video cameras.
A method comprising:
- using a plurality of video cameras, acquiring a corresponding plurality of videos of a subject being treated by a defibrillator, the defibrillator forming part of a defibrillator system;
- establishing a communication channel between the defibrillator system and an emergency response center;
- causing transmission to the emergency response center of a plurality of images, each image acquired by one of the plurality of video cameras;
- receiving, from the emergency response center, a selection of one of the plurality of video cameras;
- and
- causing transmission to the emergency response center of the video acquired by the selected one of the plurality of video cameras.
