Medical device data integration apparatus and methods

Methods, systems, and apparatuses for integrating medical device data are disclosed. In an example embodiment, a processor receives infusion therapy progress data that is generated by an infusion pump and renal failure therapy progress data that is generated by a renal failure therapy machine. The processor also receives physiological data that generated by at least one physiological sensor. The processor determines fluid balance data based on a difference between the infusion therapy progress data and the renal failure therapy progress data. The processor displays the fluid balance data in conjunction with hemodynamic information from the physiological data.
