Abstract
Automatically blocking and/or unblocking a computer-supported medical device in a system includes the medical device and a mobile terminal. The mobile terminal comprises a first wireless communication device, and the medical device comprises a second wireless communication device. The medical device is automatically shifted from a blocked state into an unblocked state, if when the first communication device establishes a wireless connection with the second communication device and the signal strength of a signal of from the first communication device to the second communication device exceeds a first threshold. The medical device is automatically shifted from an unblocked state into a blocked state when the first communication device establishes a wireless connection with the second communication device and the signal strength of a signal from the first communication device to the second communication device falls below a second threshold and/or the wireless connection is interrupted for longer than a predetermined time interval.
