Abstract: Certain embodiments of the present invention provide a mobile device configured to instruct and direct a patient within a medical care facility. The medical device may include a main housing configured to be conveyed by the patient within the medical care facility, a display positioned on the main housing, a tracking device configured to be tracked by a patient information system, a processor in communication with the display, and a transceiver allowing bi-directional communication between the mobile device and the patient information system. The transceiver may be configured to receive patient-specific directions and instructions regarding a medical care event that are transmitted from the patient information system. The processor is operable to show the patient-specific directions and instructions on the display.

Abstract: Systems and methods for determining a course of action in a real-time case based on analysis of trend data in historical cases. The system includes an historical initial data interface; an historical outcome interface; an historical response interface; an historical database; a trend analyzer; and a trend analysis interface. The method includes obtaining historical initial data for more than one historical case; associating an historical response and an historical outcome with each of the historical cases; storing the historical initial data and the associated historical responses and outcomes for each of the historical cases; identifying trends between the historical initial data and the associated historical responses and outcomes in the historical cases; obtaining initial data for the real-time case; and determining a course of action in the real-time case based on the identified trends from historical cases having similar historical initial data to the initial data in the real-time case.
