Summary: | A system and a corresponding method processes data acquired from multiple medical devices located at one of multiple patient bed stations. A first data interface bi-directionally communicates with multiple medical devices in acquiring data, including patient related information, and acquisition device type identifier information from one of the multiple medical devices using a communication protocol selected from multiple communication protocols associated with different medical devices. A data processor incorporates the acquisition device type identifier information derived from the acquired data into a message in an Internet compatible format for communication to a remote device. A second data interface bi-directionally communicates with the remote device to convey the acquisition device type identifier information to the remote device in the Internet compatible format message and employs a predetermined source Internet communication address usable by the remote device to identify a source location of the message from a map associating Internet communication addresses and source locations. |
