Abstract: A patient operating table includes a support mattress with a plurality of pads. The plurality of pads includes a central pad located to support a midsection of a patient's body. The central pad includes an outer shell with a seam that has a hermetic seal and defines a cell therein. A support frame is integrally connected to the central pad. A central pedestal is located under the central pad and carries the support mattress on a base frame. A heating element and a hygroscopic substance is located in the cell. A conduit extends from the heating element and through the outer shell at a sealing ring that is connected to the outer shell with a hermetic seal.

Abstract: A compute device may include circuitry configured to obtain patient state data that may be indicative of a heart rate of the patient or a respiration rate of the patient. The circuitry may also be configured to obtain patient medication data indicative of a schedule for administration of pain medication to the patient. Further, the circuitry may be configured to determine whether a trend in the patient state data satisfies a predefined condition, determine whether the patient medication data indicates that the patient is due for administration of pain medication within a predefined time period, determine, in response to a determination that the trend in the patient state data satisfies the predefined condition and a determination that the patient is due for administration of pain medication within the predefined time period, that the patient is experiencing pain, and produce an alert signal that the patient is in pain.

Abstract: An example method includes outputting, by an output device, a first Graphical User Interface (GUI) associated with a patient. A font size of the first GUI is adjusted based on a position of the patient. Based on determining that a position of a care provider is within the threshold distance of the output device or within the room associated with the patient, outputting, by the output device, the second GUI being different than the first GUI.

Abstract: Technologies for performing dynamic alert management to reduce caregiver fatigue may include a compute device. The compute device may include circuitry configured to receive alert data from a patient monitor device, to be provided to one or more caregivers in an alert. The circuitry may additionally be configured to determine whether alert suppression criteria indicative of one or more factors associated with alert-related fatigue is satisfied based on the received alert data. Additionally, the circuitry may be configured to suppress, in response to a determination that the alert suppression criteria is satisfied, the alert.

Abstract: A mobility management system receives movement data from sensors that detect movements of a patient resting in a patient support apparatus and movement data from one or more mobility detection devices that detect movement of the patient when the patient exits the patient support apparatus. The system determines a mobility status based on at least the movement data received from the patient support apparatus and the one or more mobility detection devices, and adjusts a care protocol for the patient based on the mobility status.
