Abstract
Abstract A method for displaying time-correlated medical event data including the steps of: providing time-correlated event data to a display device; selecting a first event to be displayed; and displaying the first event together with a time-correlated second event on the display device. Another embodiment is a method for displaying time-correlated medical event data including the steps of: manually entering data comprising a first event into a display device; time-correlating the first event with data comprising a second event collected by a medical device; and displaying the first event together with the second event on the display device.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 18
Claim 1
Independent Claim
73 words
A method for displaying time-correlated medical event data comprising the steps of: providing time-correlated medical event data to a display device, selecting a first event from the time-correlated medical event data to be displayed; displaying the first event; and displaying a second event along with the first event on the display device in time-correlated manner, based on the selection of the first event, wherein at least one event is a continuous data stream.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
73 words
A method for displaying time-correlated medical event data comprising the steps of: providing time-correlated medical event data to a display device, selecting a first event from the time-correlated medical event data to be displayed; displaying the first event; and displaying a second event along with the first event on the display device in time-correlated manner, based on the selection of the first event, wherein at least one event is a continuous data stream.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
18 words
The method of claim 1 wherein the providing step comprises connecting a memory device to the display device.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
19 words
The method of claim 1 wherein the providing step comprises using the display device to collect time-correlated event data.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
39 words
The method of claim 1 wherein the providing step comprises providing time-correlated event data collected by a medical device and user-entered event data, wherein the user-entered event data is time-correlated with the event data collected by the medical device.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
38 words
The method of claim 1 wherein the second event is patient ECG data, the displaying step comprising displaying the first event together with at least a portion of the ECG data correlating in time with the first event.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
26 words
The method of claim 5 wherein the displaying step further comprises displaying a marker together with the patient ECG data, the marker representing the first event.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
11 words
The method of claim 6 wherein the marker comprises a caption.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
19 words
The method of claim 1 wherein the selecting step comprises selecting the first event from a list of events.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
24 words
The method of claim 1 wherein the selecting step comprises selecting the first event from a list of events displayed on the display device.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim
22 words
The method of claim 1 wherein the selecting step comprises entering a unique identification of the first event into the display device.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim
29 words
The method of claim 1 wherein the providing step comprises providing time correlated event data collected by a defibrillator, and further wherein the second event comprises patient ECG data.
Claim 13
Dependent Claim
20 words
The method of claim 11 wherein the first event comprises delivery of a shock by the defibrillator to a patient.
Claim 14
Dependent Claim
14 words
The method of claim 1 wherein the providing step comprises providing time-stamped event data.
Claim 15
Independent Claim
54 words
A method for displaying time-correlated medical event data comprising the steps of: manually entering data comprising a first event into a display device; time-correlating the first event with data comprising a second event collected by a medical device; and displaying the resulting time correlated first event and second event together on the display device.
Claim 16
Independent Claim
54 words
A method for displaying time-correlated medical event data comprising the steps of: manually entering data comprising a first event into a display device; time-correlating the first event with data comprising a second event collected by a medical device; and displaying the resulting time correlated first event and second event together on the display device.
Claim 17
Dependent Claim
19 words
The method of claim 14 further comprising creating a list comprising a first entry corresponding to the first event.
Claim 18
Dependent Claim
19 words
The method of claim 15 further comprising selecting the first entry from the list prior to the displaying step.
