Abstract: Various methods and systems are provided for predicting a discharge date of a patient of a healthcare facility. In one embodiment, a method for a patient management system of a healthcare facility comprises receiving a selected confidence level from a user of the patient management system; predicting a date for discharging a patient of the healthcare facility using a trained discharge date prediction model, based on a set of patient data of the patient, the discharge date prediction model trained on historical patient data of the healthcare facility; based on the received confidence level and an output of the trained discharge date prediction model, predict a discharge date window of the patient; generating a predicted discharge date window element summarizing the discharge window prediction in a user interface (UI) of the patient management system; and displaying the UI on a display device of the patient management system.

Abstract: An infant warmer for supporting an infant upon an infant platform. A radiant heater is located above the infant platform to direct infrared energy toward an infant positioned upon the infant platform. There is a pre-heat cycle that is carried out by a controller of the radiant heater that may be activated, manually or automatically, at the start-up of the infant warmer. The pre-warm cycle then warms the infant platform as well as other surfaces in close proximity thereto in order to heat those components prior to the infant being placed on the infant platform. The pre-warm cycle continues until those components are sufficient heated whereupon a signal, audible, visual or both, alerts the user that the pre-heat cycle has been completed and the infant warmer is ready to receive the infant. By warming those components, the possibility of hypothermia of the infant is reduced.
