Abstract
A system includes: a processor; a memory coupled to the processor, wherein the memory stores a first content; a medical device coupled to the processor; and a reader coupled to the processor, wherein the reader is configured to read a second content from a storage medium other than the memory such that the processor switches the medical device from a first mode to a second mode based on the first content corresponding to the second content.
Claims29
A system comprising:
- a processor;
- a memory coupled to the processor, wherein the memory stores a first content;
- a medical device coupled to the processor;
- and
- a reader coupled to the processor, wherein the reader is configured to read a second content from a storage medium other than the memory such that the processor switches the medical device from a first mode to a second mode based on the first content corresponding to the second content.
2 more elements
A method comprising:
- causing, via a processor, a memory to store a first content;
- causing, via the processor, a reader to read a second content from a storage medium other than the memory;
- causing, via the processor, a medical device to switch from a first mode to a second mode based on the first content corresponding to the second content.
A method comprising:
- obtaining, via a point-of-sale (POS) terminal, a first content uniquely associated with a medical device;
- retrieving, via the POS terminal, a second content from a record of a database;
- writing, via the POS terminal, the first content into the record such that the first content is associated with the second content in the record;
- and
- taking an action with respect to the medical device responsive to the writing.
2 more elements
A method comprising:
- retrieving, via a point-of-sale (POS) terminal, a first content and a second content from a record of a database, wherein the first content is uniquely associated with a medical device;
- programming, via the POS terminal, a storage medium based on the first content and the second content such that the medical device can be switched from a first mode to a second mode based on the storage medium being in proximity of the medical device.
A method comprising:
- causing, via a processor, a reader to read a content from a storage medium;
- causing, via the processor, a medical device to be switched from a first mode to a second mode;
- tracking, via the processor, a use of the medical device in the second mode;
- causing, via the processor, the medical device to be switched from the second mode to the first mode in response to a threshold being satisfied based on the use.
