Control of a defibrillator and/or pacemaker

The system lets a doctor remotely monitor and treat a patient using a medical device like a defibrillator or pacemaker. The patient's device plugs into an electronic adapter, which then connects to a local communication device, such as a cell phone. This local device sends the patient's heart signals to the doctor, who can then send commands back to the patient's device to deliver electrical pulses for treatment. The claims focus on this adapter and the communication link.

Why it matters: Filed before widespread, secure, low-latency wireless communication was standard. Today's mature 5G networks and telemedicine infrastructure make reliable remote control of critical medical devices more feasible.

Status: Not in forceListed as no longer active. The specific reason is not in the record we hold.
How hard to build: SpecializedMedical device interface, secure communication software.
