Abstract: A device, such as a data network device for a medical data network, controls an operating state of a second medical device in such a way that by sending a request message, the second medical device is prompted to change over into the operating state of the combined therapy and hence into an operating state in which its actuator is controlled as a function of an information signal of the first medical device. The information signal is based on physiological measured values. As a result, a clinician does not have to configure the second medical device himself/herself directly on site at the medical device by inputting an input signal, but this can be carried out by the device.

An assignment data set is provided indicating an assignment of medical device to assigned location.

Abstract: A medical device arrangement (100) tests processing of data sets to be processed during operation of the medical device arrangement. The arrangement includes a data interface (110), analysis modules (120) and a test module (130). The analysis modules process a received medical data set (105). Each analysis module (122, 123, 124) forms a processing instance (390) for the medical data set or for the medical data set (125, 125?) already preprocessed by at least one other analysis module. The test module outputs a test data set (132) to one of the analysis modules during operation such that this analysis module processes the test data set in the same manner as the medical data set. The test module compares a correspondingly outputted, processed test data set (134) with a reference result (136) associated with the test data set and determines a test result (137) based on this comparison.
