First Claim
Patent Images
1. A physiological monitor device comprising:
- a central processing unit (CPU) that is configured to control operation of the device;
a display screen; and
a set of one or more computer readable data storage media storing software instructions that, when executed by the CPU, cause the device to;
store a device ID for the device, the device ID uniquely identifying the device, the device being configured with the device ID by a user;
store a location ID for the device, the location ID identifying a location in a medical facility, the device being configured with the location ID by a user;
send the device ID and the location ID to a server computer;
after the device ID and the location ID are sent to the server computer, receive a list of patients for the location specified by the location ID; and
display the list of patients on the device.

22. A computer-readable storage medium comprising software instructions that, when executed, cause a physiological monitor device to:
-
store a device ID for the device, the device ID uniquely identifying the device, the device being configured with the device ID by a user; store a location ID for the device, the location ID specifying a floor or a room number in a medical facility, the device being configured with the location ID by a user; send the device ID and the location ID to a server computer; after the device ID and the location ID are sent to the server computer, receiving a list of patients at the location specified by the location ID; display the list of patients on the device; select a patient from the list of patients; after a patient is selected, display a home screen on the device, the home screen displaying current physiological measurement readings for the patient, the home screen including at least two identifiers for the patient, the at least two identifiers including two of a patient ID, the name of the patient and a location for the patient; select a review tab on the device; when the review tab is selected, display a list of physiological measurement records for the patients at the location specified by the location ID, each physiological measurement record in the list of physiological measurement records including a patient name, at least one patient name being abbreviated; select one or more of the physiological measurement records and sending the physiological measurement records to a server computer; and automatically delete the selected physiological measurement records from the list of physiological measurement records after the selected physiological measurement records are sent to the server computer.
