Abstract

A head-mounted display device for interface with a medical device configured to perform an invasive procedure on a patient, such as a blood component collection, an infusion, a feeding operation, etc.

Claims (33)

1. A head-mounted display device for interface with a medical device configured to perform an invasive procedure on a patient, comprising:

a frame configured to be mounted on a person's head;

a display;

a sensor;

a wireless transceiver configured to communicate with a network; and

a processing circuit coupled to the frame, the display, the sensor and the wireless transceiver, wherein the processing circuit is configured to receive at least one of sound and image data from the sensor, wherein the at least one of sound and image data is associated with a person in the vicinity of the device, to compare the at least one of sound and image data to the at least one of sound and image data associated with the patient who is to receive the invasive procedure using the medical device, and to generate output data based on the comparison, wherein the output data comprises at least one of a command to the medical device to allow the procedure and a check-in message to check the patient in for a blood donation procedure using the medical device, wherein the output data is configured to program a blood product donation operation on the medical device, wherein the medical device is configured to perform an apheresis procedure on the patient, wherein the output data comprises an indication of a product to be collected selected from the group consisting of plasma and red cells.

2. The device of claim 1 , wherein the sound data comprises a sample of a voice of the person in the vicinity of the device.

3. The device of claim 2 , wherein the processing circuit is configured to use voice recognition to do the comparison.

4. The device of claim 1 , wherein the image data comprises an image of the person in the vicinity of the device.

5. The device of claim 4 , wherein the processing circuit is configured to use facial recognition to do the comparison.

6. The device of claim 4 , wherein the device is configured to acquire the image of the person in the vicinity of the device while the person in the vicinity of the device is wearing the device.

7. The device of claim 4 , wherein the processing circuit is configured to use a retinal scan to do the comparison.

8. The device of claim 1 , wherein both sound and image data associated with the person in the vicinity of the device are compared to sound and image data associated with the patient who is to receive the invasive procedure using the medical device.

9. The device of claim 1 , wherein the output data comprises a message to be displayed on the display.

10. The device of claim 1 , wherein the output data comprises the command to the medical device to allow the procedure.

11. The device of claim 1 , wherein the the output data comprises the check-in message to check the patient in for a blood donation procedure.

12. The device of claim 11 , wherein the processing circuit performs the check-in without requiring user input.

13. The device of claim 1 , wherein the image data comprises an image of a wristband worn by the person in the vicinity of the device.

14. The device of claim 1 , wherein the image data comprises an image of a bar code associated with the person in the vicinity of the device.

15. The device of claim 1 , wherein the sensor comprises an RFID sensor configured to identify an RFID tag or transmitter worn by the person in the vicinity of the device.

16. The device of claim 1 , wherein the procedure is compared to patient data stored in a database to determine compatibility.

17. A head-mounted display device for interface with a medical device configured to perform an invasive procedure on a patient, comprising:

a frame configured to be mounted on a person's head;

a display;

a sensor;

a wireless transceiver configured to communicate with a network; and

a processing circuit coupled to the frame, the display, the sensor and the wireless transceiver, wherein the processing circuit is configured to receive at least one of sound and image data from the sensor, wherein the at least one of sound and image data is associated with a person in the vicinity of the device, to compare the at least one of sound and image data to the at least one of sound and image data associated with the patient who is to receive the invasive procedure using the medical device, and to generate output data based on the comparison, wherein the output data comprises a programming message configured to program an operational characteristic of the medical device configured to perform an invasive procedure on a patient, wherein the programming message is configured to program a blood product donation operation on the medical device, wherein the medical device is configured to perform an apheresis procedure on the patient, wherein the operational characteristic comprises an indication of a product to be collected selected from the group consisting of plasma and red cells.

18. A head-mounted display device for interface with a medical device configured to perform an invasive procedure on a patient, comprising:

a frame configured to be mounted on a person's head;

a display;

a sensor;

a wireless transceiver configured to communicate with a network; and

a processing circuit coupled to the frame, the display, the sensor and the wireless transceiver, wherein the processing circuit is configured to receive at least one of sound and image data associated with a person in the vicinity of the device, to compare the at least one of sound and image data to at least one of sound and image data associated with a medical professional who is to use the medical device and to generate output data based on the comparison, wherein the output data comprises an indication that the medical professional is approved to use the medical device, wherein the output data is configured to program a blood product donation operation on the medical device, wherein the medical device is configured to perform an apheresis procedure on the patient, wherein the output data comprises an indication of a product to be collected selected from the group consisting of plasma and red cells.
