MULTI AUTOMATED SEVERITY SCORING

摘要

Some embodiments of the invention provide an automated method for continuously monitoring at least one patient. The method continuously collects medical data about the patient from several different inputs. The method integrates the collected data, and continuously computes at least one severity score for the patient based on the integrated data. The method uses the severity scores to continuously monitor the patient. In some embodiments, integrating the data includes formatting the data so that that the data can be used to compute the severity score. Formatting the data in some embodiments includes using a set of database tables to convert the data. In some embodiments, the database tables are modifiable by a user. Some embodiments continuously compute multiple severity scores. The severity scores computed in some embodiments include the APACHE II score, the SAPS II score, the MEWS score, or user-defined severity scores.
