Abstract: A system including a range of motion module, a quality of sleep module, an overall module, and a control module. The range of motion module, subsequent to performing a procedure on a patient, determines a first range of motion score of the patient based on a signal generated by a sensor. The quality of sleep module, subsequent to performing the procedure on the patient, determines a first quality of sleep score or a first pain score based on the signal generated by the sensor. The overall module determines a combined score based on (i) the first range of motion score, and (ii) the first sleep score or the first pain score. The control module (i) determines whether an outcome of the procedure is positive based on the combined score, and (ii) stores the determined outcome and the combined score in a memory.

Abstract: System and computer-implemented method for detecting and categorizing pathologies through an analysis of pulsatile blood flow. The method has a pulsatile blood flow signal of a subject, extracting a set of features from the pulsatile blood flow signal; and categorizing a pathology based on the extracted features. The extracted features may be predetermined features or features learned through a machine learning algorithm. For the categorization, a classification or a regression algorithm may be used to provide an index or a value score as a biomarker. Additional static features of the subject may be used in the categorization.

Abstract: High-accuracy locating systems and methods are used for determining successful caregiver rounding, monitoring whether housekeepers have properly cleaned patient beds, or determining whether patients have ambulated sufficient distances during recovery. Patient beds having at least two locating tags are used for establishing patient care zones around the patient beds. Locating anchors and equipment tags are moved around a patient room to determine optimum locating anchor placement within the patient room based on signal quality values. A locating tag on a patient bed switches roles to operate as a locating anchor in response to the patient bed becoming stationary. A locating tag has a digital compass which is used to determine a field of good ranging relative to a front of a caregiver wearing the locating tag.

Abstract: Methods, apparatuses, and systems for maintaining and controlling surgical tools are disclosed. For each surgical tool, a surgeon can give verbal commands which can result in feedback provided by a synthesized voice or the execution of an action as instructed by the verbal command. The tools are monitored during use to ensure the tools remain within their operating parameters. The system alerts the surgeon should the tools approach their operational limitations.

Abstract: A web-based interface enables medical personnel to remotely monitor medical devices. A monitoring system records operational data and alarms from the medical devices in a file. However, since network connections between the medical devices and the monitoring system are intermittent, the file does not contain a contiguous stream of data for each medical device. The file pauses recording during gaps in network connectivity. The system displays current data, as well as a list of alarms. If medical personnel wish to view more detail about an earlier time or one of the alarms, the system calculates where in the file the medical device data was recorded. This calculation accounts for the discontiguous nature of the data. The system uses times the network connection is made and broken to calculate an index into the file that corresponds to the time of the user-selected alarm.

Abstract: The subject matter disclosed herein relates to the control and utilization of multiple sensors within a device.

Abstract: In a risk level assessment method for a plurality of clinical conditions as follows, a set of laboratory test results (32) are stored with time stamps for a patient, including at least one hematology test result and at least one arterial blood gas (ABG) test result. For each clinical condition, a risk level is determined for the clinical condition based on a clinical condition-specific sub-set of the stored set of laboratory test results. This determination is made conditional on the stored clinical condition-specific sub-set of laboratory test results being sufficient to determine the risk level. A time stamp is assigned to each determined risk level based on the time stamps for the laboratory test results of the clinical condition-specific sub-set of laboratory test results. A display device (44, 46) displays the determined risk level and the assigned time stamp for each clinical condition whose determined risk level satisfies a display criterion.

Abstract: The disclosed embodiments include a computer-implemented method for communications centric care. A caregiver interface serves a patient interface in accordance with a disease management program to collaboratively lead the patient to recover from a disease. The method can include obtaining content items relating to a patient and labeling each content item as either a secure content item or an unsecure content item, and then comparing the labels with identifiers of the patient, the caregiver, and/or a schedule key events of the disease management program. The content items are selectively bifurcated for the patient and/or caregiver interfaces. As such, the interfaces can manage communications in accordance with the disease management program.

Abstract: A computer program product for gathering respondent input for determining a ranking of states each characterized by a set of selected levels each associated to an attribute. The interface mechanism provides for inputting selected attribute levels of a respondent state and for ranking of comparable alternative states determined in response to the inputted respondent state, in comparison with that respondent state. The alternative states are each displayed as the set of attributes with the associated set of alternative levels simultaneously and with an input field for inputting a preference indication of the shown alternative state compared with the respondent state. This allows the respondent input to be entered with very few input actions and little switching between screens. Only the selected attribute levels of the respondent state and the rankings and identifications of the determined alternative states need to be transmitted to the central computer.
