Embodiment Construction

[0090] The present invention is a comprehensive, real-time, interactive clinical information management system designed for the practice of endoscopy. It includes integrated reporting features, that manages and organizes clinical information obtained during phases of care relating to an endoscopic exam, and endoscopic images and related patient data, at various levels of detail, for creating efficiencies and facilitating functions performed by users of endoscopic equipment, e.g., physicians, nurses, clinicians, etc.

[0091] Particularly, the clinical information management system designed for the practice of endoscopy includes a web-browser interface that supports all the data acquisition and care-giving functions performed by users during patient registration, pre-endoscopic procedure, endoscopic procedure and post-procedure phases of care.

[0092] The clinical information management system further includes the ability to capture, process and record endoscopic images during a procedu...
