Visual display of room information
View Patent ↗An embodiment provides a method of graphically displaying room information, including: displaying, on an electronic device, a matrix having a plurality of cells therein, at least one cell displaying hospital room information regarding room availability and patient occupancy in the room; said matrix displaying the plurality of cells in column form; and displaying, responsive to a user interaction with a cell in the matrix of a patient occupied hospital room, an overlay window having secondary room status information therein comprising patient specific information regarding the status of the hospital room.
1. A non-transitory computer readable medium having stored thereon executable instructions which, when executed, cause one or more processors to perform operations for displaying a graphical user interface on an electronic device, the operations comprising:
providing data for displaying, as part of a graphical user interface, a matrix having a plurality of cells arranged in one or more columns, the one or more columns being associated with at least one patient unit or area of a hospital,
wherein
a first cell of the plurality of cells is associated with a hospital bed in a first patient unit or area, the first cell comprising first data organized in multiple sections of information including:
(a) a room number or location of the hospital bed, and
(b) one or more attributes of at least one of the hospital bed, a patient occupying the hospital bed, a type of care associated with the patient, or a level of care required for the patient;
receiving, from an input device in communication with the one or more processors, an input indicative of a selection of the first cell; and
responsive to the received input, providing data for displaying an overlay window that includes second data different from the first data.
2. The computer-readable medium of claim 1 , wherein the one or more attributes include an isolation bed, a telemetry bed, a bed side terminal bed, isolation care, or telemetry care.
3. The computer-readable medium of claim 1 , wherein the one or more attributes of the patient occupying the hospital bed include a gender.
4. The computer-readable medium of claim 1 , wherein the first cell includes an icon or a shaded region indicative of a status of the patient or a status of the hospital bed.
5. The computer-readable medium of claim 4 , wherein the status of the patient includes a real-time status or near real-time status.
6. The computer-readable medium of claim 4 , wherein the status of the hospital bed includes one or more of an occupied status, an available status, a clean status, a dirty status, a cleaning in progress status, a blocked status, a reserved status, or an unavailable status.
7. The computer-readable medium of claim 4 , wherein the status of the patient includes one or more of a patient pending discharge status, a patient pending transfer status, or a patient confirmed discharge status.
8. The computer-readable medium of claim 1 , wherein multiple sections of information include at least two rows.
9. The computer-readable medium of claim 1 , wherein at least one column of cells comprises summary information regarding a patient care unit associated with the at least one column of cells, and wherein the summary information includes at least one of a number of staffed beds, a reserved capacity of the patient care unit, a number of assigned beds, or a census now number.
10. A non-transitory computer readable medium having stored thereon executable instructions which, when executed, cause one or more processors to perform a method of displaying a graphical user interface on an electronic device, the method comprising:
providing data for displaying, as part of the graphical user interface, a plurality of cells arranged in one or more columns, the one or more columns being associated with at least one patient unit or area of a hospital,
wherein
a first cell of the plurality of cells is associated with a hospital bed in a first patient unit or area, the first cell comprising first data organized in graphical information including:
(a) a room number or location of the hospital bed, and
(b) one or more attributes of at least one of the hospital bed, a patient occupying the hospital bed, a type of care associated with the patient, or a level of care required for the patient;
receiving, from an input device in communication with the one or more processors, an input indicative of a selection of the first cell; and
responsive to the received input, providing data for displaying an overlay window that includes second data different from the first data.
11. The computer-readable medium of claim 10 , wherein the one or more attributes include an isolation bed, a telemetry bed, a bed side terminal bed, isolation care, or telemetry care.
12. The computer-readable medium of claim 10 , wherein the one or more attributes of the patient occupying the hospital bed include an identification of the patient.
13. The computer-readable medium of claim 10 , wherein the first cell includes an icon or a shaded region indicative of a status of the patient or a status of the hospital bed.
14. The computer-readable medium of claim 13 , wherein the status of the patient includes a real-time status or near real-time status.
15. The computer-readable medium of claim 13 , wherein the status of the hospital bed includes one or more of an occupied status, an available status, a clean status, a dirty status, a cleaning in progress status, a blocked status, a reserved status, or an unavailable status.
16. The computer-readable medium of claim 13 , wherein the status of the patient includes one or more of a patient pending discharge status, a patient pending transfer status, or a patient confirmed discharge status.
17. The computer-readable medium of claim 10 , wherein at least one of the plurality of cells comprises three sections.
18. The computer-readable medium of claim 10 , wherein at least one column of cells comprises summary information regarding a patient care unit associated with the at least one column of cells, and wherein the summary information includes at least one of a number of staffed beds, a reserved capacity of the patient care unit, a number of assigned beds, or a census now number.
