Zusammenfassung: | Systems and methods are provided for managing medical devices. In one embodiment, medical device usage data is stored on the medical device to indicate the usage, health, and alarm or error codes. The usage data is electronically read and assessed against one or more thresholds to determine if the medical device is operating properly and, hence, can be inventoried for reuse, or is need of service or repair. Other embodiments are also disclosed wherein the medical device wirelessly scan its environment to ensure, for example, the device is used with approved accessories or components and personnel. In yet other embodiments, medical devices are provided that can configure themselves for operation by scanning any connected components for component-specific operational data. The operational data is then used to configure the medical device to operate with the component. |
