SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR MEDICAL PROCEDURE PREPARATION
Systems and methods for medical procedure preparation are provided. Systems and methods are provided for identifying appropriate medical resources to prepare, prior to a medical procedure. Systems and methods are provided for automatically updating records of medical personnel preferences based on usage. Optionally, scheduling and forecasting of location availability may occur in real-time. Furthermore, medical console identifiers may be used to aid in the systems and methods provided herein.
1 . A method of tracking medical product usage during a medical procedure, said method comprising:
collecting, with aid of one or more video or audio systems, images of one or more medical products at a health care location;
recognizing, with aid of one or more processors, the one or more medical products based on the images or audio data collected by the video or audio systems;
assessing, with aid of one or more processors, usage of the or more medical products based on the images or audio data collected by the video or audio systems; and
updating a preference card of one or more medical personnel based on the usage of the one or more medical products.
2 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising utilizing machine learning to recommend one or more medical products for the medical procedure.
3 . The method of claim 2 , further comprising displaying success rates for the medical procedure if the one or more recommended medical products are used for the medical procedure.
4 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the video data is captured with aid of a medical console that is capable of communicating with a remote device, wherein the medical console comprises at least one camera supported by a movable arm.
5 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the audio data comprises speech recognition pertaining to the one or more medical products, or a recognizable sound of the one or more medical products during preparation or usage of the one or more medical products.
6 . The method of claim 1 , wherein said recognition occurs with aid of a visual identifier on the medical product or a packaging of the medical product, or with aid of object recognition based on the images or audio data.
7 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the usage of the one or more medical products is recognized based on a presence or an absence of the medical product on an instrument tray.
8 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the usage of the one or more medical products is recognized based on an analysis of an interaction between the medical personnel and the one or more medical products.
9 . The method of claim 1 , wherein updating the preference card of the one or more medical personnel comprises removing a medical product as a preferred product upon detecting a pattern of non-use or less frequent use.
10 . The method of claim 1 , wherein updating the preference card of the one or more medical personnel comprises adding a medical product as a preferred product upon detecting a pattern of use or more frequent use.
11 . The method of claim 1 , wherein updating the preference card of the one or more medical personnel depends on a procedure type for the medical procedure.
12 . The method of claim 1 , wherein updating the preference card of the one or more medical personnel depends on the health care location.
13 . The method of claim 1 , wherein updating the preference card of the one or more medical personnel depends on a current inventory or a historical inventory of the product.
14 . A method of providing access to medical information via a medical console, said method comprising:
accepting, at the medical console, a log-in credential, wherein the log-in credential comprises a location-based component and a practitioner-based component; and
providing access to the medical information, wherein the accessible medical information is selectively available based on the location-based component and the practitioner-based component.
15 . The method of claim 14 , wherein the location-based component uniquely identifies a health care facility, or a room of the health care facility.
16 . The method of claim 14 , wherein the practitioner-based component uniquely identifies a medical personnel performing or assisting with a medical procedure.
17 . The method of claim 14 , wherein the medical console is configured to restrict access to the medical information until the log-in credential is entered or provided.
18 . The method of claim 14 , wherein the medical information is provided by a central repository, wherein the central repository comprises a cloud-based infrastructure or a P2P infrastructure.
19 . The method of claim 14 , wherein the accessible medical information comprises a preference card for medical personnel associated with the practitioner-based component.
20 . The method of claim 19 , wherein the preference card depends on the location-based component.
