SYSTEM FOR INTEGRATED PROTOCOL AND DECISION SUPPORT

摘要

Embodiments of the system support hospital operations, delivery of health care, and improve patient satisfaction. The interactive hospital information system utilizes inputs from a mobile device, eliminating the cost of fixed cameras and sensor systems in the hospital facility. Aspects of the invention facilitate real-time patient care and patient room updates by care providers, validating that prescribed devices, services, and setups are in place per protocol. The system communicates with rounding persons as to specific care management. Network devices, such as an iPad® or smartphone, are utilized to monitor and record ongoing activities in the healthcare setting.

主权项

1. An integrated hospital information system for clinical decision support comprising:
a plurality of data capture devices, each having manual data input and at least one of a visual sensor, audio sensor, or a light-based sensor to configure computer generated input of sound, video, graphics, global positioning (GPS), light-based detection laser-based detection, body scanning, or retinal scanning to provide a captured image of a patient's care and care setting; at least one storage unit in the form of a server or a cloud-based storage connected to a network; a processor comprising an analytics module that interacts with said at least one storage device and said plurality of data capture devices to compare said captured image with a protocol image to determine whether said captured image of the patient adheres to one or more of regulatory protocols, operating protocols, health provider orders, and a patient's treatment or care plan; and a user interface integrated with each of the plurality of data capture devices that refreshes said captured image in real-time;wherein each of said plurality of data capture devices comprises a network interface for internet access.
