Abstract: Subject matter described herein is related to assigning a healthcare clinician to provide care to a patient. This disclosure describes tracking the location of a healthcare clinician. Based on the tracking, a resource-consumption score for a patient is generated. The resource-consumption score is used to predict whether a clinician has the capacity to be assigned to the patient. The clinician is assigned to patients based on predicted capacity.

Abstract: Subject matter described herein is related to assigning a healthcare clinician to provide care to a patient. For example, a GUI is provided that includes contextual information relevant to the assignment and that allows a user to electronically create the assignment. Relevant information includes a list of clinicians, a list of patients, and an estimate of the amount of resources required to provide care to a patient. In addition, this disclosure describes tracking the status of a healthcare clinician, such as primary provider, secondary provider, and on-break. Status might be tracked by capturing an image of a display board, which supports clinician barcodes that are movable to desired locations within a depiction of a healthcare facility (e.g., floor plan laid out using barcodes).

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention are directed to methods of providing data feeds from medical devices associated with patients to computing devices associated with clinicians. A computing device for each of a number of clinicians is registered as being associated with the clinician. An identification of a patient is received. A list of medical devices related to the patient is retrieved. An identification of a number of clinicians is received. The medical devices are associated with the computing devices of the clinicians. Data feeds are provided to the computing devices from the medical devices.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media for managing healthcare environments are provided. In embodiments, a real-time status of a clinical device, along with a location, is received. The location of the clinical device is obtained via a clinical device identifier that is tracked by a plurality of sensors in a healthcare environment. A clinical device may be identified as inappropriate for use and an alert presented to a clinician including the problem of the clinical device and the location thereof. A replacement clinical device may be located, using clinical identifiers, and presented to the clinician. Such monitoring and location awareness facilitates efficient responses to healthcare situations.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media for providing clinical information to clinicians are provided. In embodiments, a patient's electronic health record is accessed to identify that a first clinician has requested a consult with a second clinician. Each clinician is associated with a clinician identifier that is identified by a plurality of sensors. A location for both the first and second clinician is received from the plurality of sensors. A determination is made whether the first and second clinicians are near one another. Upon determining that the first and second clinicians are near one another, a notification is presented to the first clinician. Such tracking of clinician location helps avoid missed opportunities and provides efficient communication among clinicians.

Abstract: Subject matter described herein is related to estimating a quantity of resources that are consumed or expended when providing care to a patient. When estimating the quantity, non-clinical information might be used to draw various inferences. For example, information provided by a real-time location system might provide insight (e.g., duration, frequency, etc.) into instances in which a healthcare clinician visits a patient's room. In another example, information provided by a medical-device alarm system might provide insight into alarms that are triggered by equipment that monitors and/or provides assistance to a patient.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media for optimizing a clinical experience are provided. Individuals may be approved by a patient to receive notifications of clinical events. The notifications may be accessed from the patient's electronic health record. In embodiments, a location of a clinician associated with a patient and a location of the patient are received. A determination whether the clinician is near the patient is made. Upon determining that the clinician is near the patient, a notification is sent to a non-present party (e.g., a family member) via a mobile device. Such notifications include individuals in the clinical process and avoid missed opportunities for interactions with clinicians.

Abstract: An embodiment of the present invention is directed to providing event information that is received from various sources in a healthcare environment. The information that is received from the various sources is converted to a standardized format and is filtered according to various criteria (e.g., source device, recipient component, event type, source location, etc.). After filtering, the information is compared to a rules engine to determine whether additional processing or routing is appropriate.
