Abstract: A computer-implemented method for managing medical equipment includes presenting, at a display of a mobile computing device associated with an inspector, an inspection user interface configured to capture one or more user inputs from the inspector, receiving inspection account information via the one or more user inputs, receiving a location of the mobile computing device, providing, at the inspection user interface, identification information for transported medical equipment that is associated with the inspection account information, receiving status information for the transported medical equipment via the one or more user inputs, receiving, at a remote medical equipment database, location information for the transported medical equipment, and updating a maintenance report for the transported medical equipment by storing an inspection information entry in the maintenance report.

Abstract: In one aspect, a deployment station for portable emergency medical treatment and guidance apparatuses is provided. The deployment station can include a first storage section for holding at least one emergency medical treatment and guidance apparatus that includes a plurality of medical supplies; a second storage section for holding at least one defibrillator including electronic circuitry to administer electrotherapy; a housing containing the first storage section and the second storage section, the housing including: a readiness indicator for indicating a readiness of the at least one emergency medical treatment and guidance apparatus and the at least one defibrillator based on obtained readiness information; and at least one processor and memory mechanically coupled to the housing and communicatively coupled to the readiness indicator.

Abstract: In one aspect, a portable medical treatment and guidance apparatus for interactively assisting a user in treating a patient is provided. The apparatus can include: a housing having at least one compartment; a plurality of medical supplies housed within the at least one compartment; a user interface configured to provide an interactive query flow for assisting the user in providing medical treatment; at least one sensor adapted to detect removal of at least one medical item of the plurality of medical supplies; and at least one processor and memory mechanically coupled to the housing and communicatively coupled to the user interface, the at least one sensor, and communications circuitry.

Abstract: A portable medical treatment apparatus and interactive application that leads a user through a medically acceptable query flow for treating medical emergencies, including cardiac or pulmonary medical emergencies that can be treated with electrotherapy and other medical emergencies.

Abstract: A system for managing responders acquiring medical equipment and responding to an emergency medical event includes mobile devices associated with responders; a computer aided dispatch (CAD), and an equipment/responder management system communicatively coupled to the mobile devices and CAD and configured to receive an event location from the CAD, retrieve medical equipment locations from a database, receive responder locations from the mobile devices, send the event and equipment locations to a first mobile device, generate an activity log for the event including first responder status information based on the responder location, the event and medical equipment locations, send the activity log to the first mobile device, send the event location and the medical equipment locations to a second mobile device, update the activity log with second responder status information based on the responder, event and medical equipment locations, and send the activity log to the mobile devices.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method for managing medical equipment is described that includes providing a medical equipment management software application. The method includes presenting, at an output device of a computing device, an user interface configured to capture user inputs, receiving inspection account information via the one or more user inputs, receiving a location of the computing device, providing, at the output device, identification information for at least one item of medical equipment that is associated with the inspection account information, receiving status information for the at least one item of medical equipment, and updating previously stored status information for the at least one item of medical equipment with the received status information and the location of the computing device. The status information may include inspection information and the location of the computing device may be a location of a mobile device associated with an equipment inspector during an equipment inspection.
