ABSTRACT:
A medical monitoring device, operating system, and method is provided for managing administration of medical treatment regimens for treating a patient's medical conditions. The device stores medication schedule data, treatment data, patient query data, and patient response data. The device includes a controller for controlling modes of operation of the device, controlling access of the memory, controlling display of the treatment data and the patient query data on a display, receiving and processing patient response data, tracking timing, and providing scheduled medication alarm signals. The device further includes dedicated keys interfaced with the controller. Each dedicated key is associated with one of the medical treatment regimens, and initiates the display of treatment messages relating to the associated medical treatment regimen. Successive actuation of each dedicated key initiates the display of further treatment messages relating to the associated medical treatment regimen. The device further includes soft function keys interfaced with the controller. The soft function keys signal the controller, commanding it to execute different modes of operation of the medical monitoring device. The device provides scheduled medication alarm signals that alert the user concerning prescribed medications due to be taken.
