Patient medical parameter user interface system
First Claim
1. A system for providing a user interface presenting a plurality of patient medical parameters, comprising:
- an acquisition processor for acquiring, from a patient monitoring device, data representing a plurality of patient parameters; and
a processor for initiating generation of data representing a single display image including, (a) a plurality of current values of said plurality of patient parameters and (b) a sliding bar representation of each of said plurality of current values of said plurality of patient parameters together with corresponding range indicators for graphically indicating whether each of said current values is outside of a corresponding user determined range wherein said range indicators correspond to a plurality of different value ranges individually having range limit identifiers with a common visual display attribute with a current value indicator image element when said current value is within an individual range and said current value indicator image element having a second visual display attribute different from said first visual display attribute when said current value is outside said individual range.

Abstract
A user interface enables a critical care clinician (such as a respiratory therapist, nurse, resident, or attending physician) to quickly ascertain a patient condition as part of a patient care management procedure. A system according to invention principles comprises a user interface display providing a quick and convenient way to display key vital parameters and their acceptable ranges within the immediate eye-span of a clinician. A system provides a user interface presenting patient medical parameter data, and includes an acquisition processor for acquiring, from a patient monitoring device, data representing a patient parameter. The system includes a processor for initiating generation of data representing at least one display image including, (a) a current value of a patient parameter and (b) a sliding bar representation of the patient parameter current value together with a range indicator for graphically indicating whether the current value is outside of a user determined range.

13. A system for providing a user interface presenting a plurality of patient medical parameters, comprising:
-
an acquisition processor for acquiring, from a patient monitoring device, data representing a plurality of patient parameters;
a processor for initiating generation of data representing a single display image including, (a) a plurality of current values of a plurality of patient parameters and (b) sliding bar representations of said plurality of current values of said plurality of patient parameters together with corresponding range indicators for graphically indicating whether said current values are outside of corresponding user determined ranges and (i) said range indicators correspond to a plurality of different value ranges individually having range limit identifiers with a common display attribute with a current value indicator image element when said current value is within an individual range; and
wherein individual current values and associated sliding bar representations of individual patient parameters are ordered by type of associated patient parameter so that patient parameters that typically exhibit out of range conditions together are adjacent in said single display image. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 21)

17. A system for configuring a user interface display image for presenting patient medical parameter data, comprising:
-
a processor for initiating generation of data representing a single display image including, a linear sliding bar representation of a patient parameter value permitting user selection of a range limit identifier image element at a position indicative of a proportion of slide bar full scale, said range limit identifier image element being for use in a patient parameter display image for graphically indicating whether a patient parameter current value is outside of a user determined range and said sliding bar representation of said patient parameter current value is presented together with corresponding range indicators for graphically indicating whether said patient parameter current value is outside of a plurality of corresponding different user determined ranges and said range indicators correspond to a plurality of value ranges individually having range limit identifiers with a common display attribute with a current value indicator image element when said current value is within an individual range. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19)
