A method and apparatus for retrieving, accessing, and storing medical data relating to a patient during a medical procedure. The invention provides a single interface to many disparate forms of medical data, which is accessible over a local area network, wide area network, direct connection, or combinations thereof. In one embodiment, an operating room control system for use during a medical procedure on a patient includes an input device, a display device, and a controller that is coupled to the input device and the display device. The controller receives one or more user inputs, transmits a command to a server located outside of the operating room to retrieve medical data, receives the medical data from the server, and displays the medical data on the display device.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION The present invention comprises a method and apparatus for accessing and/or capturing medical data during a medical procedure.
In one embodiment, an operating room control system for use during a medical procedure on a patient includes an input device, a display device, and a controller that is coupled to the input device and the display device.
The controller receives one or more user inputs, in response to a user input, transmits a command to a server located outside of the operating room to retrieve patient information, receives the patient information from the server, and displays the patient information on the display device.
Other embodiments are described and claimed herein.
