Embodiment Construction

[0011] figure 1 A hospital configuration is shown that incorporates sensors either in the hospital bed 103 or wirelessly attached to the patient 105, which enables transparent and intelligent hospital patient monitoring. The system in one embodiment combines sensors in the hospital beds 103 with an infrastructure in which a system unit 107 (also referred to as a sensor bridge) is provided per bed. A physical bed has a system-like unit and a number of sensors wired or wirelessly connected to the unit. The beds are connected wirelessly to the infrastructure 109 (eg, Ethernet) and processing is performed for each bed on computers connected to the Ethernet network. The system unit 107 takes wired analog and digital inputs from the sensors, digitally samples the measurements and routes them to a remote processing station (eg, a server). The remote server performs alarm-generating processing, database and display functions and performs patient data monitoring, storage and knowledg...

Abstract

A patient monitoring and intervention system, comprises an interface for receiving data representing multiple different parameters from multiple different sensors, comprising sensors in a patient bed and attached to a patient including, a heart rate sensor, a respiration sensor and a pressure sensor indicating bed pressure points. A learning processor determines a normal range for a set of the different received patient parameters for the patient by recording the patient parameter values over a time period and analyzing the recorded parameter values to determine their range. A data processor determines if the set of different received patient parameters exceeds the determined normal range and in response to this determination and in response to the type of parameters in the set and medical record information of the patient, initiates adjustment of a patient bed and at least one of, (a) changes medication administered to a patient and (b) alerts a worker of the patient parameter change.

Description

[0001] This is a non-provisional application of Provisional Application Serial No. 61 / 611,260 filed March 15, 2012 by C. Schultz et al. field of invention [0002] The present invention relates to a patient monitoring and intervention system using sensors in a hospital bed and attached to a patient that uses a learning processor to determine normal ranges for a set of received patient parameters and to adjust the hospital bed in response to parameters that exceed the determined normal ranges , change the medication given to the patient and alert the worker. Background technique [0003] It would be desirable to enable monitoring and intervention to support patient healthcare in hospitals, homes, and other controlled and organized environments, as well as in uncontrolled environments such as accident scenes, disaster zones, and other outdoor settings. In such a setting, there may be a large number of casualties requiring rapid identification and severity classification. Such...
