Abstract:
A method of starting a timer associated with a process to be completed during an application of an intubation device assembly includes operating a first optical imaging device attached to an intubation device, obtaining a video image of a field of view from the first optical imaging device, and determining a pixel or zone value of a spectrum range of the video image. The method includes comparing the pixel or zone value of the spectrum range to a threshold pixel or zone value, determining the process has started in response the pixel or zone value of the spectrum range being greater than the threshold pixel or zone value, and operating an image display device of the intubation device assembly to display the timer including an elapsed time since a start of the process. The process includes an insertion of an intubation device into a mouth of a patient.
Abstract:
A method of displaying information associated with an application of an intubation device includes detecting an orientation of a screen attached to the intubation device, and setting a template for displaying values of a parameter associated with one of the plurality of sensors in a display window on the screen according to the orientation of the screen. The method includes receiving data from the plurality of sensors, and continuously displaying a video image from an optical imaging device during an intubation of a patient and periodically displaying on a portion of the screen a display window including a value of the parameter according to the data received instead of a part of the video image. Setting the template includes setting a frequency of display, a size, or a color for the parameter.
Abstract:
A method of indicating an oxygen desaturation period has been initiated includes detecting an oxygen mask configured to supply oxygen to a patient to saturate the patient, detecting a removal of the oxygen mask from the patient to stop saturation of the patient, initiating a desaturation timer in response the removal of the oxygen mask from the patient, and operating an image display device to display a first running time on a screen of the image display device indicating a desaturation time elapsed from a time of the removal of the mask.
