Abstract: Medical devices can perform a plurality of functions, such as sensing, monitoring, deriving and/or calculating various physiological statuses of a patient (e.g., blood pressure, temperature, respiration rate, etc.). Medical devices can also be used to image part or all of a patient's body, to deliver a treatment, or to manage information related to a patient's care. The present disclosure is directed at one or more devices that perform these functions using a plurality of processing circuits, wherein each processing circuit has a timing circuit with a local clock. These processing circuits can be connected via a network, and each timing circuit can communicate with at least one other timing circuit in order to detect and correct time-differences between their local clocks. In this way, multiple processing circuits can be synchronized with each other to facilitate diagnosis or treatment of a patient's condition, or other aspects of a patient's care.

Abstract: In various embodiments, the presently described methods, apparatus, and systems can facilitate decreasing a boot time of a medical device, e.g., an amount of time between when a medical device or system is first turned on or powered on and when the medical device or system is ready to perform its intended function. In some embodiments, the present disclosure can also facilitate conducting tests on the functionality of various operational circuits shortly or immediately after the device/system has been activated. In some cases, the emergency medical devices/systems can report on the status or functionality of operational circuits even before the emergency medical device is fully booted up and ready to perform some or all of its intended functions.
