Introduction

Vital files can be downloaded from My Files, VitalSync or Download API. From My Files, you can retrieve a file list by bed name/date/tracks and preview file contents. Using VitalSync or Download API, you can download a large number of files at once.

My Files

On My files page, you can search, view, and download vital files recorded by PiVR or WinVR

Search Files

On this page, you can search for files under various conditions as shown in the figure above and download retrieved files.

Start Date, End Date: search files based on the date the file was recorded
Bed: file search by bed name/operating room
Search Keyword: search by filename.
Tracks: list files by device/parameter name

File List

Filename, recording start time/end time, file uploaded time, and size are shown in the list.
The list of files in the center of the above image is the result of searched files recorded on 2022-12-27, where ABP, CO2, CVP, ECGIIWAV, and HR tracks were acquired from the Intellivue device.

File View

When you click a file name in the list, you'll see a preview of the file on the right side of the My Files page.
You can check the overall history without downloading the file.

VitalSync

VitalSync is an application, included in VitalRecorder for Windows, that assists file batch download. It is available on Windows only.

If you are downloading files from Vitalserver (On-premise), please delete vitaldb.net from the first input and enter the IP address of the server.
Enter your ID and password and click Login. It might take a while to render a file list depending on the number of files stored in the server. The result looks like the image below.
Select the checkbox of the file to download.
Set Download Target and click Start Download button.

API

Bulk file download can be done using Filelist and Download API. Please refer to VitalDB Web API or Intranet VitalDB API document. The following is the sample code to download files in bulk.

Please use “pip install vitaldb” before running our sample code.

import vitaldb

import os

import datetime

DOWNLOAD_DIR = "path/to/folder"

if not os.path.exists(DOWNLOAD_DIR):

os.mkdir(DOWNLOAD_DIR)

if vitaldb.login('ID', 'PASSWORD', 'SERVERIP', 'SERVERPORT'):

for f in vitaldb.filelist(bedname="D1", dtstart="2010-10-01", dtend="2010-10-02")

opath = DOWNLOAD_DIR + "/" + f['filename']

if os.path.exists(opath):

continue

vitaldb.download(f['filename'], opath)

Sample code below reads filenames from an Excel file and downloads them to a local PC.

import vitaldb

import os

import pandas as pd

DOWNLOAD_DIR = 'path/to/folder'

if not os.path.exists(DOWNLOAD_DIR):

os.mkdir(DOWNLOAD_DIR)

df = pd.read_excel('list.xlsx')

if vitaldb.login('ID', 'PASSWORD', 'SERVERIP', 'SERVERPORT'):

for idx, row in df.iterrows():

filename = row['filename']

opath = DOWNLOAD_DIR + '/' + filename
