Solution Overview

Problem

Current patient monitoring devices struggle to effectively display bio-information in a user-friendly manner, making it difficult for users to quickly determine a patient's condition, especially during emergencies.

Innovation Solution

A method and apparatus that output basic bio-information on a single display screen, with a monitoring unit detecting events and converting this information into detailed bio-data for specific parameters when an emergency occurs, enhancing user understanding and alerting medical professionals through visual and auditory alerts.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Loss of information

If basic bio-information of multiple bio-parameters is displayed on one screen, then comprehensive patient monitoring is achieved, but quick identification of emergencies becomes difficult

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvecomprehensive monitoringVSAvoidemergency identification time

Core Design Contradiction:

Loss of informationVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The display is segmented into two modes: a comprehensive basic information view showing multiple bio-parameters simultaneously, and an expanded detailed view that segments the display to show in-depth information about a specific parameter when an emergency is detected, allowing both comprehensive monitoring and quick emergency identification

Inventive Principle:

Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The display dynamically transitions between showing basic bio-information for multiple parameters and detailed bio-information for a specific parameter based on emergency detection, enabling the system to adapt its information presentation to the current clinical situation

Inventive Principle:

Principle #15Dynamics

2Loss of time

If detailed bio-information is displayed for emergency detection, then quick emergency identification is achieved, but comprehensive patient monitoring is reduced

Engineering Contradiction:

Improveemergency detection speedVSAvoidoverall patient status

Core Design Contradiction:

Loss of timeVSLoss of information

Solution Approach 1:

The monitoring unit continuously monitors bio-parameters in advance and detects emergencies before they become critical, triggering the detailed display mode proactively so that when detailed information is needed, it is already prepared and displayed, balancing quick detection with comprehensive monitoring

Inventive Principle:

Principle #10Preliminary action

3Loss of information

If basic bio-information is displayed, then comprehensive patient data is shown, but user understanding and interpretation become complex

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvepatient data completenessVSAvoiduser interpretation ease

Core Design Contradiction:

Loss of informationVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The display applies local quality by showing basic information for all parameters in a simplified format, then providing detailed information with enhanced visualization and interpretation aids for the specific parameter of concern, making the information both comprehensive and easy to understand

Inventive Principle:

Principle #3Local quality

AI summary

A method of displaying bio-information on a screen includes outputting basic bio-information of a plurality of bio-parameters indicating a condition of a patient on one display screen, determining an occurrence of an event related to the plurality of bio-parameters, converting the basic bio-information into detailed bio-information about one of the plurality of bio-parameters based on a result of the determining an occurrence of an event, and outputting the converted detailed bio-information on the one display screen.
