  • Multipurpose Host System for Invasive Cardiovascular Diagnostic Measurement Acquisition Including an Enhanced Dynamically Configured Graphical Display
    Publication number: 20110319773
    Abstract: The present invention provides a multipurpose host system for processing and displaying invasive cardiovascular diagnostic measurement data. The system includes a an external input signal bus interface. The bus interface receives data arising from cardiovascular diagnostic measurement sensors. Measurement processing components receive data from particular sensor types. Based on the received data, the processing components render diagnostic measurement parameter values. A multi-mode graphical user interface includes display components corresponding to data received from particular sensor types. The user interface provides recommended action prompts that guide a user through a series of actions.

  • Outcomes profile management system for evaluating treatment effectiveness
    Patent number: 6177940
    Abstract: System for data input and storage and for correlation of such data against group data contained in a linked database. The data is input via a series of hierarchical menus, which menus may include sub-menus and fields that enable a user to directly input data for storage into the database. Data regarding an individual may be entered into the database directly by the individual using the hierarchical menu system.
