Information management system and method
A computer-implemented method, computer program product and computing system for: gathering information from a datasource concerning one or more thresholds within one or more medical institutions, thus defining gathered information; enabling a user to select a viewing lens from a plurality of available viewing lenses through which to display the gathered information, thus defining a selected viewing lens; and rendering at least a portion of the gathered information based, at least in part, upon the selected viewing lens.
1 . A computer-implemented method, executed on a computing device, comprising:
gathering information from a datasource concerning one or more thresholds within one or more medical institutions, thus defining gathered information, wherein the gathered information concerns, at least in part, one or more thresholds of one or more devices within the one or more medical institutions;
enabling a user to select a viewing lens from a plurality of available viewing lenses through which to display the gathered information, thus defining a selected viewing lens;
rendering at least a portion of the gathered information based, at least in part, upon the selected viewing lens;
enabling the user to adjust the one or more thresholds of the one or more devices within the one or more medical institutions from one or more current thresholds to one or more adjusted thresholds; and
generating a simulation comparing a level at which the one or more current thresholds are being exceeded and a level at which the one or more adjusted thresholds would be exceeded.
2 . The computer-implemented method of claim 1 wherein the plurality of available viewing lenses includes one or more of:
a macro level viewing lens;
a facility level viewing lens;
a unit level viewing lens;
a cohort level viewing lens; and
an individual level viewing lens.
3 . The computer-implemented method of claim 1 wherein rendering at least a portion of the gathered information based, at least in part, upon the selected viewing lens includes:
graphically locating at least a portion of the one or more thresholds within at least a portion of the one or more medical institutions.
4 . The computer-implemented method of claim 1 wherein the one or more thresholds are defined, at least in part, within the one or more devices within the one or more medical institutions.
5 . The computer-implemented method of claim 1 wherein the thresholds of a particular patient within the one or more medical institutions is reviewable via an individual level viewing lens.
6 . A computer program product residing on a computer readable medium having a plurality of instructions stored thereon which, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to perform operations comprising:
gathering information from a datasource concerning one or more thresholds within one or more medical institutions, thus defining gathered information, wherein the gathered information concerns, at least in part, one or more thresholds of one or more devices within the one or more medical institutions;
enabling a user to select a viewing lens from a plurality of available viewing lenses through which to display the gathered information, thus defining a selected viewing lens;
rendering at least a portion of the gathered information based, at least in part, upon the selected viewing lens;
enabling the user to adjust the one or more thresholds of the one or more devices within the one or more medical institutions from one or more current thresholds to one or more adjusted thresholds; and
generating a simulation comparing a level at which the one or more current thresholds are being exceeded and a level at which the one or more adjusted thresholds would be exceeded.
7 . The computer program product of claim 6 wherein the plurality of available viewing lenses includes one or more of:
a macro level viewing lens;
a facility level viewing lens;
a unit level viewing lens;
a cohort level viewing lens; and
an individual level viewing lens.
8 . The computer program product of claim 6 wherein rendering at least a portion of the gathered information based, at least in part, upon the selected viewing lens includes:
graphically locating at least a portion of the one or more thresholds within at least a portion of the one or more medical institutions.
9 . The computer program product of claim 6 wherein the one or more thresholds are defined, at least in part, within the one or more devices within the one or more medical institutions.
10 . The computer program product of claim 6 wherein the thresholds of a particular patient within the one or more medical institutions is reviewable via an individual level viewing lens.
11 . A computing system including a processor and memory configured to perform operations comprising:
gathering information from a datasource concerning one or more thresholds within one or more medical institutions, thus defining gathered information, wherein the gathered information concerns, at least in part, one or more thresholds of one or more devices within the one or more medical institutions;
enabling a user to select a viewing lens from a plurality of available viewing lenses through which to display the gathered information, thus defining a selected viewing lens;
rendering at least a portion of the gathered information based, at least in part, upon the selected viewing lens;
enabling the user to adjust the one or more thresholds of the one or more devices within the one or more medical institutions from one or more current thresholds to one or more adjusted thresholds; and
generating a simulation comparing a level at which the one or more current thresholds are being exceeded and a level at which the one or more adjusted thresholds would be exceeded.
12 . The computing system of claim 11 wherein the plurality of available viewing lenses includes one or more of:
a macro level viewing lens;
a facility level viewing lens;
a unit level viewing lens;
a cohort level viewing lens; and
an individual level viewing lens.
13 . The computing system of claim 11 wherein rendering at least a portion of the gathered information based, at least in part, upon the selected viewing lens includes:
graphically locating at least a portion of the one or more thresholds within at least a portion of the one or more medical institutions.
14 . The computing system of claim 11 wherein the one or more thresholds are defined, at least in part, within the one or more devices within the one or more medical institutions.
15 . The computing system of claim 11 wherein the thresholds of a particular patient within the one or more medical institutions is reviewable via an individual level viewing lens.
