Certain embodiments are directed to a method, system, or apparatus, such as a medical imaging device. The method can include retrieving data from a worksheet or form repository server. The data can include one or more fields of a customized worksheet or form. The one or more fields can be based on at least one of an identification of a user, a location of the medical imaging device, or a medical department using the medical imaging device. The method can also include recreating the customized worksheet or form at the medical imaging device based on the received data, and displaying the recreated customized worksheet or form on a graphical user interface connected to the medical imaging device. In addition, the method can include producing a medical image via the medical imaging device, and automatically forwarding the customized worksheet or form and the medical image to a billable workflow or an educational workflow.

Method and apparatus for interacting with medical worksheets

An ultrasound point-of-care system receives a worksheet from a worksheet server. The worksheet is encoded as HTML that is configured to be rendered by a browser component of system software. One or more predefined JavaScript functions in the HTML provide information that is entered by a user into the worksheet and meta-data about the worksheet. System software on the medical device uses an intermediate component or code insertion to execute the JavaScript functions to retrieve the entered information and the meta-data. The system software stores the information locally and packages the retrieved information and meta-data as a DICOM file for transmission to the worksheet server when a computer communication connection to the worksheet server becomes available.

Systems and methods for providing a navigation and guidance sequence during configuration, input, and storage of programmable parameters for use in a medical device. One embodiment includes a cardiac rhythm management device as the medical device. The navigational sequence provides a series of interfaces on which parameter input fields are displayed. In one embodiment, the interfaces are graphical user interfaces. Each interface may include a plurality of different sets of parameter input fields with only one set being displayed at a time.
