Abstract
Systems, methods, and computer readable storage medium for providing a genericized medical device architecture common to a plurality of medical devices are disclosed. The architecture may comprise at least one diagnostics module associated with at least one of the plurality of medical devices, wherein the at least one diagnostics module is configured to monitor an operational status of the at least one medical device. At least one hardware abstraction layer may be associated with at least one of the plurality of medical devices, and may be configured to provide abstracted access to hardware of the at least one medical device.
Claims27
A non-transitory computer readable storage medium having encoded thereon computer executable instructions which, when executed, cause a computer to implement a software architecture common to a plurality of medical devices, the software architecture comprising:
- a plurality of modules for controlling and monitoring aspects of hardware or software related to the plurality of medical devices;
- a location independent communications module configured to provide message bus services for ones of the plurality of modules, wherein the ones of the plurality of modules are communicatively associated with each of the plurality of medical devices.
A method of implementing a software architecture common to a plurality of medical devices, comprising:
- accessing information from at least one module of each of the plurality of medical devices;
- providing message bus services for the accessed at least one module associated with each of the plurality of medical devices.
Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
