INPATIENT BLOOD MANAGEMENT
First Claim
1. One or more computer storage media storing computer-useable instructions that, when used by one or more computing devices, cause the one or more computing devices to perform a method comprising:
- identifying a patient who is currently admitted to a healthcare facility;
determining that the patient is anemic such that one or more red blood cell measurements associated with the patient are below a predetermined threshold;
determining that the patient requires blood treatment based on the one or more red blood cell measurements;
algorithmically determining blood treatment instructions for the patient; and
displaying the blood treatment instructions.

Abstract
Methods, systems, and computer storage media are provided for enabling management of a patient'"'"'s blood when the patient has been admitted to a healthcare facility but does not have a scheduled procedure. A patient who is admitted to the healthcare facility is identified and based on the patient'"'"'s red blood cell measurements, it is determined that the patient is anemic. It is determined that the patient requires blood treatment based on these red blood cell measurements. Blood treatment instructions are determined by way of algorithms, and these instructions are displayed in the patient'"'"'s electronic medical record such that a clinician can determine, based on the recommended instructions, which interventions to administer to the patient.

11. One or more computer storage media storing computer-useable instructions that, when used by one or more computing devices, cause the one or more computing devices to perform a method comprising:
-
receiving a first set of blood test results that includes a hemoglobin count for a patient who has been admitted to a healthcare facility, wherein the patient is not scheduled for a procedure that is associated with a high risk of blood loss; automatically populating an electronic medical record associated with the patient with the first set of blood test results; determining that the hemoglobin count does not meet a predetermined lower threshold indicating that the patient is anemic; ordering a second set of blood tests to determine a recommended blood treatment; receiving a second set of blood test results; determining the recommended blood treatment based on the first set of blood test results and the second set of blood test results; and communicating for display on the electronic medical record blood treatment instructions. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16)

17. One or more computer storage media storing computer-useable instructions that, when used by one or more computing devices, cause the one or more computing devices to perform a method comprising:
-
receiving blood test results associated with a patient who has been admitted to a healthcare facility; automatically populating an electronic medical record associated with the patient with the blood test results, wherein the blood tests results indicate levels of one or more of a hemoglobin concentration, hematocrit, or a red blood cell count; based on the blood test results, determining that the patient is eligible for blood treatment such that the blood test results indicate that the patient is anemic; algorithmically determining customized blood treatment instructions that are based on the blood test results for the patient; and communicating for presentation the customized blood treatment instructions. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20)
