US Patent 9323893 Using mobile consumer devices to communicate with consumer medical devices

Mobile consumer devices are used to communicate with consumer medical devices to either provide update data to the consumer medical device or to obtain data from the consumer medical device. Some data is used to evaluate performance and operation of the medical device or a biological condition of the living being that is being treated with the medical device. Other data is used to calibrate and update the consumer medical device or to enable or disable certain functionality of the medical device. Communications between the medical devices and mobile consumer devices can be performed automatically or on demand, as initiated by a user, a third party, or in response to predetermined conditions detected by the devices.
