  • Patent number: 11037678
    Abstract: A method for displaying information and receiving inputs with a medical device includes displaying a first interface on a display of the medical device, receiving various inputs from a user, displaying a second interface on the display of the medical device, and receiving vital signs data from the patient using the second interface. The first interface includes a login area including one or more prompts for information identifying a user of the medical device and profile selection area including two or more profiles offered by the medical device. The method further involves receiving user identifying information from the user via the login area, confirming the user identifying information, activating the profile selection area in response to confirming the user identifying information, receiving a profile selection from the user via the profile selection area, and receiving patient identification information from the user with the medical device.

  • Publication number: 20190150786
    Abstract: A method for configuring a presentation of physiological data for a patient includes identifying one or more physiological sensor modules that are connected in a physiological parameter monitoring device. After the physiological sensor modules are identified, the physiological parameter monitoring device is configured so that display areas are allocated on a display screen of the physiological parameter monitoring device for displaying physiological data for the patient. A separate display area is allocated for each identified physiological module. After one or more physiological sensor modules are detected as being connected, the physiological parameter monitoring device is automatically configured to include one or more additional display areas on the display screen for displaying physiological data for the patient. A separate additional display area is allocated for each of the additional physiological sensor modules that is connected.

  • Patent number: 10204081
    Abstract: A method for displaying physiological data on a medical display device includes receiving one or more first units of physiological data from a first monitoring device. At least one of the first units of physiological data is received on a continuous basis. Each first unit of physiological data corresponds to a medical parameter being monitored by the first monitoring device. One or more second units of physiological data are received from a second monitoring device. At least one of the second units of physiological data is received on a non-continuous basis. Each second unit of physiological data corresponds to a medical parameter being monitored by the second monitoring device. The first and second units of physiological data are displayed on a single display screen of the medical display device.

  • Patent number: 9763629
    Abstract: A medical device includes: a processor; a display; and memory encoding instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to create an interface on the display, the interface including: a login area including one or more prompts for information identifying a user of the medical device; a profile selection area including two or more profiles offered by the device, wherein each of the profiles is a series of tasks to be performed by the medical device, and a description of each profile is provided in the profile selection area; a vital signs area programmed to display a plurality of vital signs associated with a patient; and an additional parameters area programmed to capture one or more additional parameters associated with the vital signs displayed in the vital signs area.

  • Publication number: 20150186023
    Abstract: A parameter measuring device operates to: obtain a first measurement of a parameter; display a workflow screen containing a first representation of the parameter based on the first measurement of the parameter; detect a first manual override selection corresponding to interaction of the user in relation to the input device; receive a second measurement of the parameter via the input device; and display a second representation of the parameter based on the second measurement of the parameter by replacing the first representation of the parameter with the second representation of the parameter
