Abstract

An electronic data capture, documentation and clinical decision support system (EDDS) includes a user display and input device, where the device is configured to include symbolic language including icons, the icons being controllable based upon user input. Multiple input data feeds are provided from one or more external databases, and preferably from a user input device. A display presentation system cohorts or otherwise organizes the data received via the input data feeds. An external device control system serves to provide wireless remote control of medical devices. Optionally, a clinical decision support system for providing clinical information to the user, such as providing a diagnosis, suggested treatment, medication or other medical action. The recommended clinical action may be implemented automatically, or upon the further authorization of the medical professional.
