Abstract

Implementations of the present invention include methods of providing and managing patient data. In some implementations, methods include providing patient data to a data management system that is in communication with an information system located at a facility, providing the patient data to a remote device that is in communication with the data management system, receiving, in the remote device, ancillary information that is input based on the patient data, providing the ancillary information to the data management system, and providing the ancillary information to the information system from the data management system.

Claims

1. A method of providing and managing patient data, the method comprising:

providing patient data to a data management system that is in communication with an information system located at a facility;

providing the patient data to a remote device that is in communication with the data management system;

receiving, in the remote device, ancillary information that is input based on the patient data;

providing the ancillary information to the data management system; and

providing the ancillary information to the information system from the data management system.

2. The method of claim 1, further comprising:

providing an interface that is associated with the information system; and

displaying the ancillary information on the interface.

3. The method of claim 1, further comprising:

displaying patient data on the remote device; and

associating the ancillary information with particular patient data that is displayed on the remote device.

4. The method of claim 1, further comprising displaying an annotation on the remote device, which annotation having been generated at the facility

5. The method of claim 4, wherein the annotation is generated based on user input into the information system.

6. The method of claim 4, wherein the annotation is automatically generated by a patient monitoring device that is in communication with the information system.

7. The method of claim 1, further comprising:

generating a dialog box on a display of the remote device; and

inputting the ancillary information into the remote device using the dialog box.

8. The method of claim 1, wherein the ancillary information includes at least one of an annotation, a digital image, digital video, audio and an electronic document.

9. The method of claim 1, further comprising processing and formatting the ancillary information using the data management system for subsequent display at the facility.

10. A machine-readable storage device encoded with a computer program comprising instructions that, when executed, operate to cause one or more processors to perform operations comprising:

providing patient data to a data management system that is in communication with an information system located at a facility;

providing the patient data to a remote device that is in communication with the data management system;

receiving, in the remote device, ancillary information that is input based on the patient data;

providing the ancillary information to the data management system; and

providing the ancillary information to the information system from the data management system.

11. The machine-readable storage device of claim 10, wherein the operations further comprise:

providing an interface that is associated with the information system; and

displaying the ancillary information on the interface.

12. The machine-readable storage device of claim 10, wherein the operations further comprise:

displaying patient data on the remote device; and

associating the ancillary information with particular patient data that is displayed on the remote device.

13. The machine-readable storage device of claim 10, wherein the operations further comprise displaying an annotation on the remote device, which annotation having been generated at the facility

14. The machine-readable storage device of claim 13, wherein the annotation is generated based on user input into the information system.

15. The machine-readable storage device of claim 13, wherein the annotation is automatically generated by a patient monitoring device that is in communication with the information system.

16. The machine-readable storage device of claim 10, wherein the operations further comprise:

generating a dialog box on a display of the remote device; and

inputting the ancillary information into the remote device using the dialog box.

17. The machine-readable storage device of claim 10, wherein the ancillary information includes at least one of an annotation, a digital image, digital video, audio and an electronic document.

18. The machine-readable storage device of claim 10, wherein the operations further comprise processing and formatting the ancillary information using the data management system for subsequent display at the facility.

19. A system, comprising:

one or more processors; and

a machine-readable storage device coupled to the one or more processors having instructions stored thereon which, when executed by the one or more processors, causes the one or more processors to perform operations comprising;

providing patient data to a data management system that is in communication with an information system located at a facility;

providing the patient data to a remote device that is in communication with the data management system;

receiving, in the remote device, ancillary information that is input based on the patient data;

providing the ancillary information to the data management system; and

providing the ancillary information to the information system from the data management system.

20. The system of claim 19, wherein the operations further comprise:

providing an interface that is associated with the information system; and

displaying the ancillary information on the interface.

21. The system of claim 19, wherein the operations further comprise:

displaying patient data on the remote device; and

associating the ancillary information with particular patient data that is displayed on the remote device.

22. The system of claim 19, wherein the operations further comprise displaying an annotation on the remote device, which annotation having been generated at the facility

23. The system of claim 22, wherein the annotation is generated based on user input into the information system.

24. The system of claim 22, wherein the annotation is automatically generated by a patient monitoring device that is in communication with the information system.

25. The system of claim 19, wherein the operations further comprise:

generating a dialog box on a display of the remote device; and

inputting the ancillary information into the remote device using the dialog box.

26. The system of claim 19, wherein the ancillary information includes at least one of an annotation, a digital image, digital video, audio and an electronic document.

27. The system of claim 19, wherein the operations further comprise processing and formatting the ancillary information using the data management system for subsequent display at the facility.
