Abstract
Systems and methods for remote medical care are described. In some embodiments, a system may include a case that houses one or more of a display, a microphone, a camera, a plurality of medical devices, and a computing device. In some embodiments, the computing device may be configured to communicate with one or more of the display, the microphone, the camera, and the plurality of medical devices. The computing device may be further configured to communicate with one or more nodes of a telecommunications network.
Claims16
A telehealth system comprising:
- a case, the case housing at least:
- a display;
- a microphone;
- a camera;
- a plurality of medical devices;
- a plurality of antennas;
- a plurality of access credentials;
- and
- a computing device comprising a processor;
- wherein the system is configured to:
- obtain, using a first medical device of the plurality of medical devices, patient data indicating a health parameter of a patient;
- transmit the patient data to the computing device;
- obtain, using the microphone, audio data;
- obtain, using the camera, video data;
- generate a plurality of data packets, the plurality of data packets collectively comprising information related to the patient data, the audio data, and the video data;
- establish, using at least in part the plurality of access credentials, communications links with a plurality of network nodes, the plurality of nodes comprising a first node and a second node;
- transmit, using a first antenna of the plurality of antennas, a first set of data packets of the plurality of data packets to the first node;
- while transmitting the first set of data packets to the first node using the first antenna, transmit, using a second antenna of the plurality of antennas, a second set of data packets of the plurality of data packets to the second node;
- detect an interruption in the link to the first node;
- as a result of detecting the interruption, transmit a third set of data packets to the second node, wherein the third set of data packets would have been sent to the first node in the absence of the detected interruption.
The system of claim A1, wherein the first node is associated with a first network provider and the second node is associated with a second network provider that is different than the first network provider.
