Abstract

This disclosure describes systems and methods for a graphical interface including a graphical representation of medical data. The graphical interface platform may receive medical data and provide medical safety reporting capabilities including reporting of history data and real-time visual monitoring data. The graphical interface platform may be configured to identify potential problems and corrections to medical devices in operation while a reporting cycle is underway through visual representation of performance metrics.

Claims (23)

1. A method of displaying information from a plurality of infusion pump systems on a display, the method comprising:

generating a first user interface, the first user interface comprising a histogram of operations of the plurality of infusion pump systems illustrating an amount of operations of infusion pumps systems along a spectrum of operating within and outside of predetermined operating conditions of the plurality of infusion pump systems based on control limits.

2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising determining, from the histogram, a number of overrides of the control limits and displaying an indication of the number of overrides with the first user interface.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein each operation of the plurality of infusion pump systems comprises an icon.

4. The method of claim 3 , wherein each icon comprises a status icon representing a status of a respective infusion pump system.

5. The method of claim 4 , wherein each of the status icons comprises a first symbol indicating a respective infusion pump system is running, a second symbol indicating the respective infusion pump system is stopped, a third symbol indicating the respective infusion pump system is on standby or delayed start, a fourth symbol indicating the respective infusion pump system has completed infusion, or a fifth symbol indicating the respective infusion pump system is offline or not connected.

6. The method of claim 4 , wherein each of the status icons comprises a number of IV bag icons representing a number of IV bags pumped in the operation of the respective infusion pump system.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the histogram of operations of the plurality of infusion pump systems further illustrates a first amount of operations of infusion pump systems operating within predetermined operating conditions of the plurality of infusion pump systems based on soft control limits and a second amount of operations of infusion pump systems operating within predetermined operating conditions of the plurality of infusion pump systems based on hard control limits.

8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first user interface further comprises a pop-up screen containing information related to a type of medication infused, a clinical care area, an identification of a caregiver, or further information related to operations of the plurality of infusion pump systems.

9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the operations of the plurality of infusion pump systems correspond to a specific area in a hospital.

10. The method of claim 1 , wherein the operations of the plurality of infusion pumps systems of is configured to be filtered by a medication type.

11. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first user interface further comprises a search field configured to allow a user to enter a search criteria related to an infusion pump system.

12. A system configured to display information associated with a plurality of infusion pump systems, the system comprising one or more hardware processors configured to:

generate a first graphical interface comprising a histogram of operations of the plurality of infusion pump systems illustrating an amount of operations of infusion pumps systems along a spectrum of operating within and outside of predetermined operating conditions of the plurality of infusion pump systems based on control limits; and

provide the first graphical interface on a display.

13. The system of claim 12 , wherein each operation of the plurality of infusion pump systems comprises an icon.

14. The system of claim 13 , wherein each icon comprises a status icon representing a status of a respective infusion pump system.

15. The system of claim 14 , wherein each of the status icons comprises a first symbol indicating a respective infusion pump system is running, a second symbol indicating the respective infusion pump system is stopped, a third symbol indicating the respective infusion pump system is on standby or delayed start, a fourth symbol indicating the respective infusion pump system has completed infusion, or a fifth symbol indicating the respective infusion pump system is offline or not connected.

16. The system of claim 14 , wherein each of the status icons comprises a number of IV bag icons representing a number of IV bags pumped in the operation of the respective infusion pump system.

17. The system of claim 12 , wherein the histogram of operations of the plurality of infusion pump systems further illustrates a first amount of operations of infusion pump systems operating within predetermined operating conditions of the plurality of infusion pump systems based on soft control limits and a second amount of operations of infusion pump systems operating within predetermined operating conditions of the plurality of infusion pump systems based on hard control limits.

18. The system of claim 12 , wherein the first graphical interface further comprises a pop-up screen containing information related to a type of medication infused, a clinical care area, an identification of a caregiver, or further information related to operations of the plurality of infusion pump systems.

19. The system of claim 12 , wherein the operations of the plurality of infusion pump systems correspond to a specific area in a hospital.

20. The system of claim 12 , wherein the operations of the plurality of infusion pumps systems is configured to be filtered by a medication type.
