<p>This new and unique method and apparatus is used for the distribution and administration of medical services, entertainment services, electronic health records, educational information, etc. through a patient's individual electronic patient care station (PCS) interconnected to a master library storing data in digitized compressed electronic signal format, through a local medical information network. The patient/medical personnel interact with this medical information network through the unique PCS and receives the requested service or data from the master library. The data is then displayed either on the associated television set or video monitor or through wireless/IR communications to a peripheral personal data assistant (pen based computer technology). The data for text, audio, and video information is all compressed digitally to facilitate distribution and only decompressed at the final stage before viewing/interaction. Through this method and apparatus, many operations of a typical Hospital would be rendered paperless.</p> |
