providing, by a computing device, on a display a graphical representation including multiple tabs and each tab selectable to provide operations of the medical devices organized based on the location of the medical devices within the environment, wherein a first tab provides a simple graphical representation of operations of the medical devices including an indication of one of medical devices operating within the predetermined conditions, medical devices operating outside of the predetermined conditions, and medical devices operating in a manner which indicates a potentially harmful physiological condition of a patient associated with the medical devices and organized based on the location of the medical devices within the environment, and a second tab provides an advanced graphical representation of operations of the medical devices including information related to operations of the medical devices and an indication of a number and a status of IV bags associated with respective medical devices;
processing the data to determine trending of the operation of the medical devices over time based on control limits;
providing, by the computing device, a third tab including a histogram of operations of the medical devices illustrating an amount of medical devices along a spectrum of operating within and outside of the predetermined operating conditions of the medical devices based on the control limits; and
determining, from the histogram, a number of overrides of the control limits.

Abstract
This disclosure describes systems and methods for a graphical interface including a graphical representation of medical data. The graphical interface platform may receive medical data and provide medical safety reporting capabilities including reporting of history data and real-time visual monitoring data. The graphical interface platform may be configured to identify potential problems and corrections to medical devices in operation while a reporting cycle is underway through visual representation of performance metrics.
