Abstract
In one example, a method to aggregate information from one or more medical devices comprises collecting information from one or more medical devices used by a patient, aggregating the information from the one or more medical devices into a patient record, storing the patient record to be accessible by a care station server, and providing access to the patient record to via the care station server. Other examples and related methods and apparatuses are also disclosed herein.

A method to aggregate information from a plurality of wearable medical devices (WMDs), wherein the WMDs comprise sensing electrodes and a processor coupled to the sensing electrodes, the method comprising:
- collecting information from the plurality of WMDs used by a patient, wherein each WMD is customized for the patient;
- wherein:
- information is collected from a first WMD including a first cardiovascular record for the patient measured with the first WMD, wherein the first WMD is worn by the patient over a first period;
- information is collected from a second WMD including a second cardiovascular record for the patient measured with the second WMD, wherein the second WMD is worn by the patient over a second period subsequent to the first period;
- aggregating the information from the first WMD and the second WMD into a combined patient record for the patient, wherein the combined patient record includes a combined cardiovascular record for the patient based at least in part on the first cardiovascular record and the second cardiovascular record;
- storing the combined patient record to be accessible by a care station server;
- providing access to the combined patient record via the care station server;
- and
- sending a parameter change to the second WMD based at least in part on the combined cardiovascular record, wherein the parameter change includes changing a cardiovascular measurement obtained by the second WMD, and the cardiovascular measurement is used to determine whether the patient may need a therapeutic electrical charge.
A method to collect data from a plurality of wearable medical devices (WMDs), wherein the WMDs comprise sensing electrodes and a processor coupled to the sensing electrodes, the method comprising:
- designating a first WMD for a first patient;
- collecting patient data for the first patient with the first WMD;
- storing the patient data for the first patient from the first WMD in a first patient record;
- designating a second WMD for the first patient;
- collecting patient data for the first patient with the second WMD;
- storing the patient data for the first patient from the second WMD in the first patient record, wherein the patient data in the first patient record comprises an aggregation of data from the first WMD and the second WMD, and wherein the first patient record is accessible by a care station server;
- providing access to the first patient record including the aggregation of data via a care station server;
- and
- sending a parameter change to the second WMD based at least in part on the aggregation of data, wherein the parameter change includes changing a cardiovascular measurement obtained by the second WMD, and the cardiovascular measurement is used to determine whether the first patient may need a therapeutic electrical charge.
A care station server to aggregate information from one or more medical devices including a wearable medical device (WMD), wherein the WMD comprises sensing electrodes and a WMD processor coupled to the sensing electrodes, the care station server comprising:
- a care station server processor and a memory coupled to the care station server processor, wherein instructions in the memory configure the care station server processor to:
- collect information from one or more of the medical devices including the WMD used by a patient, wherein the WMD is customized for the patient;
- wherein:
- information is collected from a first one of the medical devices including a first cardiovascular record for the patient measured with the first one of the medical devices, wherein the first one of the medical devices is worn by the patient over a first period;
- information is collected from a second one of the medical devices including a second cardiovascular record for the patient measured with the second one of the medical devices, wherein the second one of the medical devices is worn by the patient over a second period subsequent to the first period;
- aggregate the information from the first one of the medical devices and the second one of the medical devices into a combined patient record for the patient, wherein the combined patient record includes a combined cardiovascular record for the patient based at least in part on the first cardiovascular record and the second cardiovascular record;
- store the combined patient record including the aggregated information to be accessible by the care station server processor of the care station server;
- provide access to the combined patient record via the care station server processor of the care station server;
- and
- send a parameter change to the second one of the medical devices based at least in part on the combined cardiovascular record, wherein the parameter change includes changing a cardiovascular measurement obtained by the second one of the medical devices, and the cardiovascular measurement is used to determine whether to the patient may need a therapeutic electrical charge.
