Systems and methods for updating firmware of medical devices while minimizing clinical impact are described. A method includes receiving, by a control module of a patient care device, a new configuration package, including firmware for the control module and/or a first functional module of the patient care device, storing the new configuration package in a first memory bank of the control module, wherein a second configuration package comprising a current version of firmware for at least one of the control module and the first functional module is currently stored in a second memory bank of the control module, determining whether the new configuration package includes a new version of the firmware, and when a new version is included, transmitting the new version to the first functional module, for storage in a different memory bank than a memory bank currently storing a firmware currently used by the first functional module.

Systems and methods for updating firmware of medical devices while minimizing clinical impact

A method and system identifies interactions of a user with one or more medical devices, determines, based on the one or more interactions and a predetermined set of rules, a compliance score associated with the first user, in response to the compliance score not satisfying a threshold compliance score, and reducing an access level of the user to at least one of the one or more medical devices and generates a training program associated with the at least one medical device and the one or more interactions, and automatically, without user involvement, sends a training package associated with the training program to the user and notifies the user to complete the training program using the training package. The system and method also generates a new shift schedule for clinicians responsive to a first shift schedule not satisfying criteria and the clinicians not satisfying respective performance scores.

Adaptive control of medical devices based on clinician interactions

An alert device and methods of using the device in conjunction with a portable communication device are presented. The alert device is intended to be worn discretely on the person of the user and includes an output mechanism and user interface such that the user is notified of incoming communications received by a portable communication device, such as a cellular telephone, and may trigger the portable communication device to send pre-selected responses to those communications through interaction solely with the alert device. The alert device may further initiate pre-selected communications to be sent by the portable communication device solely through interaction with the alert device.
