Medical telemetry system and medical telemeter
A medical telemetry system includes: a medical telemeter including: a measuring portion which measures a biological signal of a patient as biological signal data; a communicating portion which wirelessly transmits the biological signal data; and a connection information storing portion which stores connection information; and a receiver including: a non-contact communicating portion which executes first non-contact communication to read the connection information in a non-contact manner; a storage portion which stores the connection information read by the non-contact communicating portion; and a receiving portion which starts reception of the biological signal data transmitted by the communicating portion, when the connection information is stored in the storage portion.

4. The medical telemetry system according to claim 3 , wherein the patient information includes at least one of character information and image information.
5. The medical telemetry system according to claim 2 , wherein the receiver further includes a reception-side displaying portion which displays at least one of the biological signal data and the patient information and the connection information in a manner that the patient information and the connection information correspond to each other.
6. The medical telemetry system according to claim 2 , wherein the receiver issues an alarm when a state where the patient information is not corresponded to the connection information in one-to-one relationship is detected.
7. The medical telemetry system according to claim 2 , wherein
the communicating portion of the medical telemeter transmits patient information which is stored in the second patient information storing portion to the receiving portion of the receiver together with the biological signal data, and
the receiver compares the patient information that is received by the receiving portion with the patient information that is stored in the first patient information storing portion of the receiver, and
the receiver issues an alarm, when a state where the patient information that is received by the receiving portion and the patient information that is stored in the first patient information storing portion are different from each other is detected.
8. The medical telemetry system according to claim wherein the connection information storing portion includes one of an RFID chip, a bar code, and a two-dimensional code.
9. The medical telemetry system according to claim 2 , wherein the second patient information storing portion includes an RFID chip.
10. The medical telemetry system according to claim 1 , wherein the connection information includes one of a wireless communication channel, a device identification number, an IP address, and a MAC address.
11. The medical telemetry system according to claim wherein
the medical telemeter includes a transmitter which is portable by the patient, and
the receiver includes at least one of a bedside monitor and a central monitor.
12. The medical telemetry system according to claim wherein
the medical telemeter includes at least one of a transmitter which is portable by the patient, a bedside monitor, and a central monitor, and
the receiver includes a portable information terminal.
13. The medical telemetry system according to claim 1 , wherein, when the non-contact communicating portion of the receiver executes the first non-contact communication, times which are internally managed in the medical telemeter and the receiver respectively are synchronized with each other.
14. The medical telemetry system according to claim 2 , wherein, when the non-contact communicating portion of the receiver executes one of the first non-contact communication and the second non-contact communication, times which are internally managed in the medical telemeter and the receiver respectively are synchronized with each other.
15. The medical telemetry system according to claim 1 further comprising a read/communication device which, from a patient information storing portion, which is to be attached to a patient and which stores patient information identifying the patient, reads the patient information, and which transmits the read patient information to the communicating portion of the medical telemeter.
16. The medical telemetry system according to claim 2 further comprising a read/communication device which, from a third patient information storing portion, which is to be attached to a patient and which stores patient information for identifying the patient, reads the patient information, the read/communication device which executes at least one of transmission of the patient information read from the third patient information storing portion to the communicating portion of the medical telemeter, and reception of the patient information stored in the second patient information storing portion of the medical telemeter from the communicating portion of the medical telemeter.
17. The medical telemetry system according to claim 15 , wherein the communicating portion of the medical telemeter transmits the patient information received from the read/communication device, to the receiver.
18. The medical telemetry system according to claim 16 , wherein
the read/communication device executes the reception of the patient information from the communicating portion of the medical telemeter, and
the read/communication device issues an alarm when the patient information read from the third patient information storing portion is not coincident with the patient information received from the communicating portion of the medical telemeter.
19. The medical telemetry system according to claim 16 , wherein
the read/communication device executes the transmission of the patient information to the communicating portion of the medical telemeter, and
the medical telemeter issues an alarm when the patient information received from the read/communication device is not coincident with the patient information stored in the second patient information storing portion.
