  • Patent number: 11967009
    Abstract: The present disclosure includes a medical monitoring hub as the center of monitoring for a monitored patient. The hub is configured to receive and process a plurality of physiological parameters associated with the patient. The hub includes advanced analytical presentation views configured to provide timely, clinically-relevant, actionable information to care providers. In certain embodiments, the monitoring hub stores and is able to replay previously presented data reflective of the patient's condition.

  • Publication number: 20240108293
    Abstract: This disclosure describes example alarm notification systems that can enable a clinician to respond to an alarm notification received via a computing device, which may have more advanced functionality than a pager. The clinician device may be a mobile device, such as a cellphone or smartphone, tablet, laptop, personal digital assistant (PDA), or the like. The clinician device may communicate with a remote server to obtain patient data generated by a patient device at the point-of-care (such as a bedside device or patient-worn monitor). This patient data may be continuous monitoring data for one or more patients. A mobile application (optionally a browser application) on the clinician device can enable the clinician to view continuous monitoring data for multiple patients, as well as view and respond to alarms and alerts, all from the clinician device, regardless of location.

  • Publication number: 20240095323
    Abstract: A physiological patient monitoring system with a patient-facing interface is disclosed. The patient interface can be used by the patient to communicate with hospital staff without actually requesting attendance and can request attendance for specific purposes. The patient interface may also track patient treatment and inform patients of the details of their treatments.

  • Publication number: 20230380701
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for remote patient management and monitoring. The patient is monitored with a wireless sensor system connected to an application executing on a patient user computing device. The system continuously monitors physiological parameters, such as, but not limited to, blood oxygen saturation (SpO2), pulse rate, perfusion index, pleth variability index, and/or respiration rate from the photoplethysmograph. The system triggers alarms if the patient physiological data violates thresholds. Care providers review patient data and associated alarm(s) with graphical user interfaces.

  • Patent number: 11627919
    Abstract: An overdose of opioids can cause the user to stop breathing, resulting in death. A physiological monitoring system monitors respiration based on oxygen saturation readings from a fingertip pulse oximeter in communication with a smart mobile device and sends opioid monitoring information from the smart mobile device to an opioid overdose monitoring service. The opioid overdose monitoring service notifies a first set of contacts when the opioid monitoring information indicates a non-distress stats and notifies a second set of contact when the opioid monitoring information indicates an overdose event. The notification can be a phone call or text message to a specified person, emergency personnel, or first responders, and can include the location of the smart mobile device. The smart mobile device can also include the location of the nearest treatment center having emergency medication used in treating opioid overdose, such as naloxone.

  • Publication number: 20230116371
    Abstract: Systems and methods for monitoring and display of a hemodynamic status of a patient. Hemodynamic status may be monitored using, for example, a transducer, an adapter and one or more monitor devices. The adapter may be in communication with the transducer and the one or more monitor devices. The adapter can be configured to receive and process data from the transducer such as unprocessed physiological data. The adapter can be configured to transmit data to the monitor device(s) such as processed and/or unprocessed physiological data. The adapter can be configured to generate, and transmit to the monitor devices(s), user interface data for rendering interactive graphical user interfaces to display information such as physiological information relating to a hemodynamic status of the patient. The adapter can be configured to receive and process, from the monitor device(s) user commands or instructions to control an operation of the system or its components.

  • Publication number: 20230069789
    Abstract: A mobile device may comprise: a power source, one or more sensors, a communication device, and an actuator. The power source can be configured to provide power to one or more components of the mobile device. The one or more sensors can be configured to generate sensor data. The communication device can be removably coupled to the power source to receive power therefrom and can be further configured to communicate with one or more computing devices remote to the mobile device. The actuator can be configured to transition between at least a first state and a second state to cause the communication device to electrically disconnect from the power source to terminate communication of the communication device with the one or more computing devices remote to the mobile device. The one or more sensors can be configured to generate sensor data when the actuator is in the first state or the second state.

  • Publication number: 20230045000
    Abstract: A system for monitoring a patient's orientation to reduce a risk of the patient developing a pressure ulcer can include one or more hardware processors that can receive and process data from a sensor to determine the patient's orientation. The one or more hardware processors can maintain a plurality of timers associated with available orientations of the patient. The one or more hardware processors can modify a value of the plurality of timers based on an amount of time the patient is oriented in the plurality of orientations. The one or more hardware processors can generate an interactive graphical user interface on the display screen. The user interface can include a graphic for illustrating an orientation history of the patient. The one or more hardware processors can modify an appearance of the graphic based upon the values the plurality of timers.

    Abstract: A patient monitor for monitoring a patient's orientation to reduce a risk of the patient developing a pressure ulcer can include one or more hardware processors that can receive and process data from a sensor to determine the patient's orientation. The one or more hardware processors can maintain a plurality of timers associated with available orientations of the patient. Each of the plurality of timers can account for a non-consecutive duration said patient is in an associated available orientation. The non-consecutive duration can vary depending on whether a patient is in the available orientation. The patient monitor can include a structured display including an orientation trend and a patient representation illustrating a current orientation of the patient. The orientation trend can include a heat map that graphically illustrates said non-consecutive durations of the patient in the available orientations and/or an orientation graph that displays the patient' orientation history.
