Abstract

A method is disclosed for displaying patient ECG data. The method includes receiving ECG data including an ECG waveform; receiving analyzed ECG data including arrhythmic events; generating an indicia of the detected arrhythmic event; and displaying the indicia of the detected arrhythmic event in relation to the ECG waveform at a position associated with a time of the detected arrhythmic event. A system for displaying patient ECG data is also disclosed.

Claims

1. A method for displaying health related data of a plurality of patients on a display screen of an electronic device, the method comprising:

classifying the plurality of patients into multiple groups based on the health related data;

displaying a pictorial representation of each group of the multiple groups on the screen, wherein one or more attributes of the pictorial representation of a group represent distinguishing features of the health related data of the patients of the group compared to the health related data of the patients of another group; and

on the screen, displaying a pictorial representation of each patient of a group of the multiple groups separate from the pictorial representation of the corresponding group, wherein one or more attributes of the pictorial representation of a patient represent distinguishing features of the health related data of the patient compared to the health related data of other patients in the corresponding group.

2. The method of claim 1, wherein at least one of a size or a color of the pictorial representation of a group represents a severity of a health related condition of the patients of the group compared to patients of another group.

3. The method of claim 1, wherein the pictorial representation of each patient of a group is positioned on the screen outside a periphery of the pictorial representation of the group.

4. The method of claim 1, wherein classifying the plurality of patients into multiple groups includes grouping patients based on at least one of a number, a recency, or a severity of a health related condition based on the health related data.

5. The method of claim 1, wherein the pictorial representation of each patient of a group identifies a number of health related conditions experienced by the patient.

6. The method of claim 1, wherein a color of the pictorial representation of each patient of a group identifies a difference in the health related data of the patient compared to the health related data of other patients.

7. The method of claim 1, wherein the health related data includes ECG data.

8. The method of claim 7, further comprising analyzing the ECG data to detect arrhythmic events.

9. The method of claim 1, wherein the pictorial representation of each group is spaced apart on the screen from the pictorial representation of another group.

10. The method of claim 1, wherein the pictorial representation of each patient of a group identifies a battery charge level of a device used to measure the health related data of the patient.

11. The method of claim 1, wherein the pictorial representation of each patient of a group indicates the patient'"'"'s compliance with a prescribed treatment.

12. The method of claim 1, wherein the multiple groups include a first group including patients that have experienced a health related condition within a first time period, a second group including patients that have not experienced the health related condition within a second time period, and a third group including patients that have completed a monitoring period.

13. A system for displaying health related data of a plurality of patients on a screen, the system comprising:

a data storage device storing instructions for displaying;

a processor configured to execute the instructions and perform a method comprising;

classifying the plurality of patients into multiple groups based on the health related data;

displaying a pictorial representation of each group of the multiple groups on the same screen, wherein one or more attributes of the pictorial representation of a group represent distinguishing features of the health related data of the patients of the group compared to the health related data of the patients of another group; and

on the screen, displaying a pictorial representation of each patient of a group of the multiple groups separate from the pictorial representation of the corresponding group, wherein one or more attributes of the pictorial representation of a patient represent distinguishing features of the health related data of the patient compared to the health related data of other patients in the corresponding group.

14. The system of claim 13, wherein the health related data includes patient ECG data.

15. The system of claim 14, further comprising analyzing the ECG data to detect arrhythmic events.

16. The system of claim 13, wherein at least one of a size or a color of the pictorial representation of a group represents a severity of a health related condition of the patients of the group compared to patients of another group.

17. The system of claim 13, wherein the pictorial representation of each group is spaced apart from the pictorial representation of another group, and the pictorial representation of each patient of a group is positioned on the screen outside a periphery of the pictorial representation of the group.

18. The system of claim 13, wherein the plurality of groups include a first group including patients that have experienced an arrhythmic event within a first time period, a second group including patients that have not experienced an arrhythmic event within a second time period, and a third group including patients that have completed a monitoring period.

19. A handheld device for displaying health related data of a plurality of patients, the handheld device comprising:

a display device for displaying representations of the health related data on a screen;

a memory device storing instructions for the displaying; and

a processor configured to execute instructions for;

classifying the plurality of patients into multiple groups based on the health related data;

displaying a pictorial representation of each group of the multiple groups on the same screen, wherein one or more attributes of the pictorial representation of a group represent distinguishing features of the health related data of the patients of the group compared to the health related data of the patients of another group; and

on the screen, displaying a pictorial representation of each patient of a group of the multiple groups separate from the pictorial representation of the corresponding group, wherein one or more attributes of the pictorial representation of a patient represent distinguishing features of the health related data of the patient compared to the health related data of other patients in the corresponding group.

20. The device of claim 19, wherein the pictorial representation of each patient of a group is positioned on the screen outside a periphery of the pictorial representation of the group.
