Distributed system for monitoring patient video, audio and medical parameter data

摘要

A distributed patient monitoring system visually monitors patients and patient parameters using multiple portable processing devices. The system includes an authentication processor enabling a user to obtain access authorization to access patient data. A clinical application display image identifies multiple different patients in corresponding multiple different locations and enables a user to select a particular patient. A data processor uses access information in acquiring live video and vital sign parameters of the particular patient from a room associated with the particular patient. A display processor initiates generation of data representing an image sequence comprising a composite image including a first area showing acquired live video of the particular patient and a second area presenting acquired vital sign parameters of the particular patient using the clinical application display image.
