Abstract

Systems, methods, and computer-readable media for managing healthcare environments are provided. In embodiments, signals are received from more than one lead corresponding to a measurement associated with a patient. Real-time waveforms or physiologic data is displayed representing each signal. Events are detected for at least one of the waveforms or physiologic data. Temporary queues store the waveforms or physiologic data corresponding to the events, where they may be reviewed, measured, annotated, or saved to the patient'"'"'s electronic medical record.

Claims

1. One or more computer storage media (the “

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 for displaying and recording patient physiologic data, the method comprising;

receiving signals from more than one lead corresponding to a measurement associated with a patient;

displaying a waveform and/or physiologic data representing each signal;

receiving a manipulation of a time period associated with the display;

receiving an indication to record a first selected portion of the display to a temporary queue for a configurable period of time;

receiving an indication to save a second selected portion of the display to an electronic medical record associated with the patient; and

permanently deleting a third portion of the display after the configurable period of time.

2. The media of claim 1, wherein the manipulation of a time period associated with the display includes playing, panning, scrolling, pausing, rewinding, or fast-forwarding the display.

3. The media of claim 1, further comprising receiving an indication from a clinician to display the first selected portion of the display.

4. The media of claim 1, further comprising receiving an event measurement associated with at least a portion of the first selected portion of the display.

5. The media of claim 1, further comprising receiving an annotation associated with at least a portion of the first selected portion of the display.

6. The media of claim 1, further comprising receiving an indication to display dragged physiologic data as additional waveforms.

7. The media of claim 1, further comprising receiving an indication to display dragged waveforms as additional physiologic data.

8. A computerized method for displaying real-time and historical patient physiologic data, the method comprising:

receiving signals from more than one lead corresponding to a measurement associated with a patient;

displaying a waveform and/or physiologic data representing each signal;

detecting an event in at least one of the waveforms and/or physiologic data;

providing a view of the event and corresponding data;

receiving an event measurement of at least a portion of the event; and

receiving an annotation for at least a portion of the event.

9. The media of claim 8, further comprising receiving an adjustment of time associated with the display.

10. The media of claim 9, wherein the adjustment of time includes playing, panning, scrolling, rewinding, fast forwarding, pausing, or any combination thereof.

11. The media of claim 8, wherein the view of the event and corresponding data is stored in a temporary queue for a configurable period of time.

12. The media of claim 11, wherein the view of the event and corresponding data is purged from the temporary queue after the configurable period of time is exceeded.

13. The media of claim 8, further comprising receiving an indication from a clinician to sign a selected view of the event and corresponding data.

14. The media of claim 13, further comprising saving the selected view of the event and corresponding data to an electronic medical record associated with the patient.

15. The media of claim 13, further comprising displaying the event and corresponding data saved in the electronic medical record in a historical queue.

16. A computer system for displaying real-time and historical patient physiologic data, the computer system comprising a processor coupled to a computer-storage medium, the computer-storage medium having stored thereon a plurality of computer software components executable by the processor, the computer software components comprising:

a signal component for receiving signals from more than one device corresponding to a measurement associated with a patient;

a real-time display component for displaying a waveform and/or physiologic data representing each signal in real-time;

an event component for detecting an event in at least one of the waveforms and/or physiologic data;

a temporary queue component for receiving the event and corresponding data; and

a permanent save component for recording the event and selected data to an EMR associated with the patient.

17. The computer system of claim 16, further comprising a time manipulation component for providing a view of the waveform and physiologic data that a clinician can play, pan, scroll, pause, rewind, or fast-forward.

18. The computer system of claim 16, further comprising an annotation and measurement component for receiving input and measuring characteristics relevant to the event and corresponding data.

19. The computer system of claim 16, further comprising a measurement component for measuring characteristics of waveforms associated with the event.

20. The computer system of claim 16, further comprising a signing component in communication with the permanent save component indicating that a clinician has signed a record corresponding to the event and selected data.
