DIALYSIS INFORMATION MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
First Claim
1. A method for managing dialysis patient information of a subject patient in an information management system, the information management system including a server device having a memory for storing of patient records and a remote terminal in communication with the server device over a network, the patient information including information relating to stages of data collection including baseline characteristics, eligibility for treatment modalities, and outcomes, the method including:
- displaying in the remote terminal a first user interface for receiving patient information relating to a specified stage of data collection for the subject patient, the first user interface including a plurality of variable-specific user input fields related to variables;
receiving in the server device from the remote terminal the patient information for the subject patient and storing said patient information in a patient record in the memory of the server device; and
determining, based on medical logic rules, whether the patient information is consistent with the patient record in order to proceed to a next stage of data collection, and if so permitting displaying in the remote terminal a second user interface for receiving patient information relating to the next stage of data collection.

Abstract
A server device, and related systems and methods for managing dialysis patient information. The patient information includes information relating to stages of data collection including baseline characteristics, eligibility for treatment modalities, and outcomes. A remote terminal is configured for displaying in the remote terminal a first user interface for receiving the patient information for the subject patient. The server is configured to receive from the remote terminal the patient information for the subject patient and store said patient information in a patient record in the memory, and determine, based on medical logic rules, whether the patient information is consistent with the patient record in order to proceed to a next stage of data collection, and if so permitting displaying in the remote terminal a second user interface for receiving patient information relating to the next stage of data collection.

13. A server device for managing dialysis patient information of a subject patient, the patient information including information relating to stages of data collection including baseline characteristics, eligibility for treatment modalities, and outcomes, the server device being in communication with a remote terminal over a network, the remote terminal being configured for displaying in the remote terminal a first user interface for receiving the patient information for the subject patient, the first user interface including a plurality of variable-specific user input fields related to variables, the server device comprising:
-
a controller; a memory accessible by the controller for storing of patient records; the controller being configured to receive from the remote terminal the patient information for the subject patient and store said patient information in a patient record in the memory; and the controller being configured to determine, based on medical logic rules, whether the patient information is consistent with the patient record in order to proceed to a next stage of data collection, and if so permitting displaying in the remote terminal a second user interface for receiving patient information relating to the next stage of data collection.

22. An information management system for managing dialysis patient information of a subject patient, the patient information including information relating to stages of data collection including baseline characteristics, eligibility for treatment modalities, and outcomes, the information management system comprising:
-
a server device having a memory for storing of patient records; a remote terminal in communication with the server device over a network; wherein the remote terminal is configured to display a first user interface for receiving patient information relating to a specified stage of data collection, and send to the server device the patient information for the subject patient, the server device storing said patient information in a patient record in the memory of the server device; and wherein the server device is configured to determine, based on medical logic rules, whether the patient information is consistent with the patient record in order to proceed to a next stage of data collection, and if so permitting displaying in the remote terminal a second user interface for receiving patient information relating to the next stage of data collection.
