DEVICE FOR CONTROLLING AN OPERATING STATE OF AT LEAST ONE MEDICAL DEVICE IN A MEDICAL DATA NETWORK AS WELL AS MEDICAL DEVICE FOR A MEDICAL DATA NETWORK
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.
