Abstract

A system according to one aspect of the present invention comprises a processor, a plurality of medical device transceivers, a data relay transceiver, and a memory coupled to the processor, and storing instructions. Each medical data transceiver is configured to receive data wirelessly from one or more medical devices. The processor executes the instructions in the memory to receive data from one or more medical devices using the plurality of medical device transceivers (which gathers data concerning the patient's condition), and transmits the data to an intermediary device using the data relay transceiver. This system can be implemented in a small, portable unit that is easy for a patient to transport. The system can communicate with multiple medical devices, regardless of the frequency or communications protocol utilized by each of the medical devices, and can retransmit (and optionally reformat) data from the medical device(s) to any desired recipient using any suitable frequency(ies) and communication protocol(s).
