摘要:
A centralized patient monitoring system includes a central station which receives patient information from bedside monitors. The patient information is presented on a video display screen and may include patient demographic information, physiological parameters and a waveform. The display screen is divided into sectors, with each sector containing information for one patient. When an alarm condition occurs at one of the bedside monitors, the alarm condition is transmitted to the central station and is displayed in the corresponding sector of the video display screen. In addition, the alarm condition is highlighted by changing the background in the alarming sector from its normal color, typically black, to a neutral color such as blue, which is easily distinguishable from the normal color and which does not obscure the patient information being displayed. The background of the sector is changed back to the normal color when the alarm is acknowledged by a user. The highlighted background is easily visible from a distance and provides a clear indication of unacknowledged alarms without obscuring other patient information.

A medical device and caretaking management system (10) includes a plurality of medical devices (14) that transmit equipment data and patient data. A central or distributed monitoring system (12) receives the equipment data and patient data from the plurality of medical devices, derives an acuity for each of the patients, and assigns caregivers and equipment based on the derived acuity for display on a display device (26).
摘要:
A patient monitoring system includes a plurality of patient monitors, each for monitoring the physiological condition of a local patient connected with respective patient monitor, whereby the patient monitors provide a data-communication with each other. Each patient monitor comprises a display adapted for displaying information representative of the physiological condition of the local patient. The display of at least one of the patient monitors comprises an overview area for displaying status information from one or more of the other patient monitors.
摘要:
An input device, in particular for a medical monitoring system, comprises a keyboard, a screen and a control processor. The keyboard comprises various hardkeys enabling access to an object mode in which the user may enter an object to be manipulated. Once an object is selected, the device enters a task/action mode in which the user may define an action to be performed on the selected object.
摘要:
A presentation on a display screen of objects of a user interface which can be freely positioned and scaled by means of control elements is optimized. This is realized by a predetermined calculation rule in such a manner that the objects can be automatically varied between a still readable minimum size and a selected maximum size in dependence on the object contents, selected preferred settings and the available display resource on the display screen, and that the available display screen surface is optimally filled, possibly while eliminating less important details of the object contents and while changing the display mode of the object contents and/or the object as well as while avoiding mutual overlapping of the objects.

摘要:
The windshield for a motor vehicle is characterized by a transparent panel having a lower region normally outside the driver's field of vision and where at least one windshield wiper is located in the rest position of the wiper. An electric resistance heating element, formed either as a continuous layer or as a plurality of individual conductors connected in parallel by bus bars, is carried on the windshield only in the lower region for heating the area on which the wipers rest. A continuous layer of a heat radiation absorbing ceramic material opaque to ambient light and coextensive with the area of the heating element is disposed on the windshield between the heating element and the windshield wiper to shield the heating element from view from the front of the windshield and to uniformly distribute heat over the lower portion of the windshield. The windshield is a laminate including inner and outer glass panes with a plastic layer therebetween. The heating element and opaque layer may be disposed on the inner and outer surfaces of the outer pane, respectively. Alternatively, the heating element can be disposed between the panes and the opaque layer can be provided on either the inner or outer surface of the outer pane. The opaque layer can be provided on the exposed surface of the inner pane, the heating element disposed thereon, and a second opaque layer of lower heat conductivity provided thereover to form a protective covering. The opaque layer is preferably is dark in color, e.g., a black enamel.

摘要:
A patient monitoring system includes a display that displays a plurality of sectors including one or more icons. A controller is configured to display patient data received from a patient monitoring system in a corresponding sector of the display. The controller programmed to determine patient status from the patient data and display the patient status as an icon on the display. The icon is color-coded with the severity or deviation from normal of the patient status. The icon can also include an arrow that indicates if the patient status is improving or deteriorating.
