ABSTRACT:
A medical treatment device is disclosed that utilizes an entertainment displays such as a standard television set, to control the medical treatment device. For example, alarm conditions may be displayed and a user (such as a patient) can respond to such alarm conditions. During an uneventful treatment, the patient can view programs (e.g., television programs) on the entertainment display. The medical treatment device can override the entertainment program and cause the entertainment display to display information related to operation or status of the medical treatment device. The medical treatment device can also include a user input (e.g., keyboard, mouse, joystick, etc.) allowing the patient to move a selector image being displayed by the entertainment display to enable the patient to control the medical treatment device.
