## Abstract

A medical device system. The system includes a first medical device, a first remote interface, and a second remote interface in communication with the first remote interface and the first medical device, wherein the first medical device sends a command to the first medical device through the second remote interface, and wherein when the second remote interface receives the command, the command must be confirmed by the second remote interface before the command is send by the second remote interface to the first medical device.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A medical device system comprising:
a first medical device;
a first remote interface; and
a second remote interface, located separate from the first medical device and the first remote interface, in communication with the first remote interface and the first medical device,
wherein the first remote interface sends a command to the first medical device through the second remote interface.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The medical device system of claim 1, wherein the first medical device is an infusion pump.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

The medical device system of claim 1, wherein the first remote interface is a medical device data system.

### Claim 4 (depends on 1)

The medical device system of claim 1, wherein the first medical device sends a command to the first remote interface through the second remote interface.

### Claim 5 (depends on 1)

The medical device system of claim 1, wherein the system further comprising a blood glucose meter in communication with the second remote interface.

### Claim 6 (depends on 1)

The medical device system of claim 1, wherein the system further comprising a continuous glucose monitor transmitter in communication with the second remote interface.

### Claim 7 (depends on 1)

The medical device system of claim 1, wherein the first remote interface:
receives a command related to the communication of safety critical information to the first medical device;
displays a message that the communication of the safety critical information to the first medical device requires confirmation using the second remote interface;
sends the communication to the second remote interface; and
once confirmation received by the second remote interface, the second remote interface communicates the command to the first medical device.

### Claim 8 (depends on 2)

The medical device system of claim 2, wherein the first remote interface:
receives an input of information related to the delivery by the infusion pump of a bolus volume of infusible fluid;
displays a message that the delivery of the bolus volume requires confirmation using the second remote interface; and
once confirmation received by the second remote interface, the second remote interface communicates the information required for the delivery of the bolus volume of infusible fluid to the infusion pump.

### Claim 9

A medical device system comprising:
an infusion pump;
a first remote interface comprising a medical device data system; and
a second remote interface, located separate from the infusion pump and the first remote interface, in communication with the first remote interface and the infusion pump,
wherein the first remote interface sends a command to the infusion pump through the second remote interface.

### Claim 10 (depends on 9)

The medical device system of claim 9, wherein the infusion pump sends a command to the first remote interface through the second remote interface.

### Claim 11 (depends on 9)

The medical device system of claim 9, wherein the system further comprising a blood glucose meter in communication with the second remote interface.

### Claim 12 (depends on 9)

The medical device system of claim 9, wherein the system further comprising a continuous glucose monitor transmitter in communication with the second remote interface.

### Claim 13 (depends on 9)

The medical device system of claim 9, wherein the first remote interface:
receives an input of information related to the delivery by the infusion pump of a bolus volume of infusible fluid;
displays a message that the delivery of the bolus volume requires confirmation using the second remote interface; and
once confirmation received by the second remote interface, the second remote interface communicates the information required for the delivery of the bolus volume of infusible fluid to the infusion pump.
