Medical Data Protocol Conversion for Cross-Device Governance
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The challenge of efficiently sharing medical data between medical devices in hospital settings is complicated by the use of different data communication protocols, leading to cumbersome data sharing and inefficient patient data management.
Innovation Solution
A system and method for data transfer between medical devices that parses and converts proprietary data transmission protocols to a standard protocol, applies pre-processing operations, and generates standardized medical data for transmission to a medical data governance system, enabling AI model application and command execution.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If medical devices use different proprietary data transmission protocols, then each device can communicate efficiently with its own system, but data sharing between devices becomes complicated and cumbersome
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces a standardized interface layer that acts as an intermediary between medical devices with proprietary protocols and the central processing system. This interface layer receives data from various proprietary protocols, converts them to a standardized format, and transmits to the processing system, thereby resolving the protocol compatibility issue without requiring changes to the original devices
Solution Approach 2:
The system changes the data representation parameters by converting proprietary protocol formats into a standardized data transmission protocol. This parameter transformation allows different devices to communicate seamlessly by translating their specific data formats into a universal language that the processing system can understand
2Adaptability or versatility
If medical data is collected and stored in standard format, then data can be easily shared and accessed, but real-time processing and immediate display to medical personnel becomes more difficult
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the data processing function into two distinct parts: a standardized interface layer that handles protocol conversion and data collection, and a separate processing system that performs real-time analysis. This segmentation allows the interface layer to maintain standardization while the processing system can optimize for speed and real-time response independently
Data Source
AI summary
A system for data transfer mechanism between medical devices for medical data governance is disclosed. The system receives, from one or more data sources, first medical data associated with a first patient. The first medical data is received using a first proprietary data transmission protocol. The system parses the first proprietary data transmission protocol based on the received first medical data and converts the first proprietary data transmission protocol to a standard data transmission protocol. The system applies one or more pre-processing operations on the first medical data and generates second medical data. The system transmits the second medical data to a medical data governance (MDG) system and receives a first set of commands from the MDG system. The system controls at least one data source to execute the first set of commands.
