摘要: A method of centralized monitoring management at a centralized monitoring unit (CMU) includes receiving patient monitoring data from multiple patient monitoring devices, each providing patient monitoring data for one of multiple patients, and assigning each of the multiple patients to one of at least two monitoring technician stations. Each monitoring technician station is configured to receive and display patient monitoring data the patients assigned thereto and to present alarms for each patient to a CMU technician. A load index is calculated for each monitoring technician station based on the alarms for each patient in the group of patients assigned to that monitoring technician station. At least one patient is removed from the group of patients assigned to a first monitoring technician station of the at least two monitoring technician stations based on the load index for the first monitoring technician station. The patient removed from the first monitoring technician station is then reassigned to a different one of the at least two monitoring technician stations so as to distribute an overall alarm load for the CMU across all of the at least two monitoring technician stations.

摘要: A centralized monitoring unit (CMU) receiving patient monitoring data from multiple patient monitoring devices includes at least two monitoring technician stations and an assignment management module. Each monitoring technician station is configured to present alarms for each patient in the group of patients to a CMU technician. The assignment management module is executable by a processing system to calculate a load index for each monitoring technician station based on alarms for patients in the group of patients. The load index for each monitoring technician station is calculated based on at least one of a number of alarms, an alarm type of each alarm, a severity of each alarm, and a duration of continuous alarming at the monitoring technician station. Assignment of the multiple patients amongst the at least two monitoring technician stations is then distributed based on the load indexes.

摘要: A system and method to reduce and manage patient monitoring alarms utilizing a longitudinal, analytics-based analysis. The method includes a patient monitoring system receiving monitored data from one or more patients and generating threshold alerts for each patient based upon alert thresholds in real time. The number of alert thresholds that occur over an analysis period is compared to an enhanced alert threshold. If the number and frequency of the threshold alerts violates an enhanced alert threshold, an enhanced indicator is generated on a display for the patient being monitored. The enhanced indicator can be generated for any one or multiple monitored data types from the patient and enhances the longitudinal monitoring of the patient over an analysis period. The enhanced indicator provides a visual indicator to the monitoring technician of the occurrence of a higher than desired number of threshold alerts over the analysis period.
