Display arrangement for medical monitoring system

Abstract

The present disclosure includes a host device that is part of a patient monitoring system. The host device can provide an improved, organized, uncluttered, and graphically-rich display that presents an integrated display of real-time patient data and alarms from multiple integrated or non-integrated devices, such as patient monitors, ventilators, anesthesia gas machines, or intravenous (IV) pumps.The host device may provide a supplementary display for the patient data collected by the multiple devices and present information, such as comprehensive real-time patient status, historical trends,or alarm indicators, in an organized manner for particular clinical scenarios. The one or more displays can be central to a care team for a patient, and the care team can together simultaneously viewand act upon the information presented.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] Pursuant to 37 CFR 1.57, any and all applications for which domestic priority claims are identified in the Application Data Sheet of this application are hereby incorporated by reference. technical field [0003] The present disclosure relates generally to patient monitoring systems, and more particularly to the integration and display of patient data in patient monitoring systems. [0004] Background of the invention [0005] Today's patient monitoring environment is crowded with complex electronic medical devices trying to provide a variety of monitoring and treatment services to a given patient. Often, multiple, if not all, devices are from different manufacturers, and multiple devices may be portable. The devices may not communicate with each other, and each device may include its own controls, displays, alarms, configurations, and the like. To complicate matters, caregivers often want to correlate all types of me...
