AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

However, other failure modes exist in current UI design
For example, default settings can cause accidents as shown by infusion pumps
Can lead to overdose or death when user misuses default concentration that is dilute than actual drug concentration
Confusing units of measurement can also cause errors, especially using weight to calculate drug infusion rates

Embodiment Construction

[0060] The user interface (UI) described herein may be functionally coupled with the sedative and analgesic delivery system. An example of such a sedative and analgesic delivery system can be found in US Patent Application Serial No. 09 / 324,759, filed June 3, 1999, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.

[0061] The sedative and analgesic system of the 09 / 324,759 application includes a patient health monitor adapted to communicate with a patient and generate a signal reflecting at least one physiological state of the patient, a drug delivery system for administering one or more drugs to the patient a medication controller, a secure data set memory reflecting at least one safe and adverse parameter of the physiological state of the monitored patient, and an electronic device interconnecting the patient health monitor, the medication controller, and the memory storing the secure data set controller. Wherein said electronic controller receives said signal, an...

Abstract

The present invention comprises a user interface for systems and methods for sedation and analgesia delivery. The user interface receives input from a user of a sedation and analgesia delivery system and relays information regarding the system, the administration of sedation and analgesia, physiological conditions to the user in a context sensitive manner. The information relayed may be displayed to the user on a touch sensitive screen or multi-layer display device. The display may be segregated geographically or may be color coded on the display device where the geographic location or color of the displayed information relates further information to the user.

Description

[0001] Pursuant to 35 U.S.C. §119(e), this application claims priority to US Patent Application 60 / 330,853, filed November 1, 2001, the entirety of which is incorporated herein by reference. technical field [0002] In general, the present invention relates to the field of medical instrument control and enhanced interaction in patient-clinician-machine systems where clinicians can perform multiple tasks, and in particular to a medical device such as a sedative and analgesic delivery system user interface and control methods. technical background [0003] Designing a user interface (UI) for clinicians can be a daunting task, as many clinicians don't have the time or patience for service hours that include so much content. Some clinicians believe that if they have to read a manual to operate a medical device, then the device's designer has failed because in emergency situations they need to operate devices for which manuals are not readily available, and these physicians have ...
