Systems, methods, computer storage media, and user interfaces are provided for associating patients and medical devices with a mobile device via Bluetooth. A signal associated with a patient communicated via a Bluetooth personal area network is received. The patient associated with the signal is recognized. An association request to associate the patient to a medical device is initiated and communicated to a mobile device associated with a clinician when the mobile device is in range. Once the clinician has provided an indication that the association request is approved, the patient is associated to the medical device. Data may be automatically logged in a shift log associated with the clinician while the mobile device is communicating with the medical device or the signal associated with the patient via the Bluetooth personal area network.
