System and Method for Determining a Patient Clinical Status
A system and method for displaying a patient clinical status. In one embodiment, the system includes a plurality of sensors, each sensor measuring a respective patient parameter; a processor in communication with each of the plurality of sensors, and a display in communication with the processor. The processor receives the patient parameters and generates a patient clinical status in response to the trends of a plurality of patient parameters.
1 . A system for displaying a patient clinical status comprising:
a plurality of sensors, each sensor measuring a respective patient parameter;
a processor in communication with each of the plurality of sensors, the processor receiving the patient parameters and generating a patient clinical status in response to the trend analysis of plurality of patient parameters; and
a display in communication with the processor, the display displaying the patient clinical status.
2 . The system of claim 1 wherein the patient clinical status is a predictive outcome.
3 . The system of claim 1 wherein the patient clinical status is generated in response to a plurality of trend lines each associated with a patient parameter.
4 . The system of claim 1 wherein the plurality of patient parameters comprise temperature, blood pressure, pulse rate, respiration rate, blood oxygen level, respiration tidal volume, expired respiratory gas, urine output, clinical blood chemistries, or other clinical signs or physiologic parameters.
5 . The system of claim 1 wherein the patient clinical status indicator is calculated from a plurality of parameters in a moving value analysis.
6 . A method for displaying a patient clinical status, the method comprising the steps of:
measuring a plurality of patient parameters;
generating a patient clinical status in response to the trends of a plurality of patient parameters; and
displaying the patient clinical status.
7 . The method of claim 6 wherein the step of generating the patient clinical status further uses a plurality of trending values each associated with a respective patient parameter.
8 . The method of claim 6 wherein the plurality of patient parameters comprise temperature, blood pressure, pulse rate, respiration rate, blood oxygen level, respiration tidal volume, expired respiratory gas, urine output, clinical blood chemistries, or other clinical signs or physiologic parameters.
9 . A system for displaying a patient clinical status comprising:
a plurality of sensors, each sensor measuring a respective patient parameter;
a processor in communication with each of the plurality of sensors, the processor receiving the patient parameters and generating a patient clinical status in response to the trend analysis of plurality of patient parameters; and
a display in communication with the processor, the display displaying the patient clinical status,
wherein the plurality of patient parameters comprise temperature, blood pressure, pulse rate, respiration rate, blood oxygen level, respiration tidal volume, expired respiratory gas, urine output, clinical blood chemistries, or other clinical signs or physiologic parameters, and
wherein the patient clinical status is generated in response to a plurality of trend lines each associated with a respective plurality of patient parameters.
