receive an indication that at least some of the treatment information is to be displayed at the personal device,

determine from the registration file if the application is installed on the personal device,

if the application is installed

convert the at least some of the treatment information to an application format for display within the application, and

transmit the converted at least some of the treatment information to the personal device, and

if the application is not installed

convert the at least some of the treatment information to a text message format or a Short Messaging Service (“SMS”) format, and

transmit the converted at least some of the treatment information to the personal device via one or more text message or SMS message.

2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the application format includes at least one of an Extensible Markup Language (“XML”) format or a HyperText Markup Language (“HTML”) format.

3. The system of claim 1 , wherein the indication that at least some of the treatment information is to be displayed at the personal device includes at least one of a message from the application or a text/SMS message from the personal device.

4. The system of claim 1 , wherein the registration file is included within the medical record.

5. The system of claim 1 , wherein the home therapy machine is configured to store a prescription with two programs, each of the programs providing parameters to operate the home therapy machine to perform a treatment, and wherein the clinician server is configured to:

receive a program message from the personal device indicative of a change to a second program from a first program; and

transmit a program instruction to the home therapy machine to change to the second program from the first program.

6. The system of claim 1 , wherein the home therapy machine includes at least one of a renal failure therapy machine, an infusion pump, an oxygen sensor, a respiratory monitor, a glucose meter, a blood pressure monitor, an ECG monitor, a weight scale, and a heart rate monitor.

7. The system of claim 1 , wherein the treatment information includes at least one of blood pressure measurement data, pulse data, weight data, glucose data, temperature data, renal failure manual exchange data, subjective data, or consumable data regarding a consumable item.

8. The system of claim 7 , wherein the consumable item includes at least one of a filter, a blood line set, a dialysate concentrate container, a blood anticoagulant container, a medication container, a disposable cassette, a sorbent cartridge, and a water purification container.

9. The system of claim 1 , wherein the personal device is a personal mobile communication apparatus.

10. A method for transmitting information to a patient, the method comprising:

storing, in a clinician database, a registration file identifying (i) a home therapy machine and a personal device of the patient as registered devices, and (ii) whether the personal device installed an application for viewing the treatment information;

receiving, in the clinician database from the home therapy machine of the patient, treatment information;

storing, in the clinician database via a server, the treatment information to a medical record of the patient;

receiving, in the server, an indication that at least some of the treatment information is to be displayed at the personal device;

determining, via the server, from the registration file if the application is installed on the personal device;

if the application is installed

converting, via the server, the at least some of the treatment information to an application format for display within the application, and

transmitting, via the server, the converted at least some of the treatment information to the personal device; and

if the application is not installed

converting, via the server, the at least some of the treatment information to a text message format or a Short Messaging Service (“SMS”) format, and

transmitting, via the server, the converted at least some of the treatment information to the personal device via one or more text message or SMS message.

11. The method of claim 10 , wherein the application format includes at least one of an Extensible Markup Language (“XML”) format or a HyperText Markup Language (“HTML”) format.

12. The method of claim 10 , wherein the indication that at least some of the treatment information is to be displayed at the personal device includes at least one of a message from the application or a text/SMS message from the personal device.

13. The method of claim 10 , further comprising converting, via the server, the treatment information to a Health-Level-7 (“HL7”) format before storing to the medical record.

14. The method of claim 10 , wherein the home therapy machine is configured to store a prescription with two programs, each of the programs providing parameters to operate the home therapy machine to perform a treatment, the method further comprising:

receiving, in the server, a program message from the personal device indicative of a change to a second program from a first program; and

transmitting, via the server, a program instruction to the home therapy machine to change to the second program from the first program.

15. The method of claim 10 , wherein the treatment information includes at least one of blood pressure measurement data, pulse data, weight data, glucose data, temperature data, renal failure manual exchange data, subjective data, or consumable data regarding a consumable item.

16. A system for transmitting information to a patient, the system comprising:

a clinician database configured to store a medical record and a registration file identifying (i) a home therapy machine and a personal device of the patient as registered devices, and (ii) whether the personal device installed an application for viewing treatment information from the home therapy machine; and

a clinician server communicatively coupled to the clinician database, the home therapy machine, and the personal device, the clinician server configured to

convert treatment information received from the home therapy machine to a Health-Level-7 (“HL7”) format,

store the converted treatment information to the medical record,

receive an indication that at least some of the converted treatment information is to be displayed at the personal device,

determine from the registration file if the application is installed on the personal device,

if the application is installed

convert the at least some of the converted treatment information to an application format for display within the application, and

transmit the converted at least some of the treatment information to the personal device, and

if the application is not installed

convert the at least some of the converted treatment information to a text message format or a Short Messaging Service (“SMS”) format, and

transmit the converted at least some of the treatment information to the personal device via one or more text message or SMS message.

17. The system of claim 16 , wherein the application format includes at least one of an Extensible Markup Language (“XML”) format or a HyperText Markup Language (“HTML”) format.

18. The system of claim 16 , wherein the indication that at least some of the treatment information is to be displayed at the personal device includes at least one of a message from the application or a text/SMS message from the personal device.

19. The system of claim 16 , wherein the personal device is a personal mobile communication apparatus, and

wherein the home therapy machine includes at least one of a renal failure therapy machine, an infusion pump, an oxygen sensor, a respiratory monitor, a glucose meter, a blood pressure monitor, an ECG monitor, a weight scale, and a heart rate monitor.

20. The system of claim 16 , wherein the treatment information includes at least one of blood pressure measurement data, pulse data, weight data, glucose data, temperature data, renal failure manual exchange data, subjective data, or consumable data regarding a consumable item.
