SHORT RANGE PEER TO PEER NETWORK FOR NEGATIVE PRESSURE WOUND THERAPY DEVICES

摘要

The present disclosure relates to a network system. The system is formed by at least two negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) devices. The first NPWT device includes a wireless radio, user interface, controller, and processing circuit. The wireless radio wirelessly communicates with the second NPWT device. The user interface displays operational status of therapy operation, receives a command of operational change from a user, and displays wireless radio connection strength between the first NPWT device and the NPWT device. The controller controls therapy operation of the first NPWT device based on input from the user interface. The processing circuit causes the wireless radio to communicate with the second NPWT device, determines wireless radio connection strength between the first NPWT device and the second NPWT device based on communication between the first NPWT device and the second NPWT device, and causes the user interface to display determined wireless radio connection strength.
