Systems and methods for remote monitoring

Abstract

The invention discloses systems and methods for monitoring. The system that includes a local monitor and a plurality of remote monitors. The local patient monitor comprises a first display area and a second display area, wherein the first display area is used for displaying patient parameter waveforms and patient parameter numerical values for a local patient, and the second display area is used for displaying patient parameter numerical values for a plurality of remote patients. A remote monitor detects that alarm occurs in the patient monitor parameter for the remote patients, the alarm information is transferred to a local monitor and a medical practitioner may select one of the remote patients in order to display a plurality of patient parameter waveforms and patient parameter numerical values for the remotely located patient in the first display area. The monitoring system can monitor the physiological status of the remote patient by the local monitor and faciliate doctors to simultaneously and reliably monitor several patients in different areas.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a patient monitoring system and method, in particular to a multi-parameter monitor and a remote monitoring system composed thereof. Background technique [0002] A monitor can be used to analyze and display various physiological parameters measured by one or more sensors connected to the patient. These physiological parameters may include, for example, pulse, temperature, respiration rate, blood pressure, blood oxygen, electrocardiogram, and the like. The physiological parameters of the patient can be displayed in waveform or numerical form, wherein the waveform can display the value of the patient's physiological parameter within a certain period of time, and the numerical value can display the current physiological parameter value. Practitioners can use the monitor to monitor the patient's physical condition and identify alarm conditions based on the measured physiological parameters of the patient. Once the monitor monitor...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

Therefore, this may make it difficult for a doctor to continuously observe the physical condition of each patient

Although the monitor can sound an audible alarm when something happens to the patient, relying solely on the propagation of the alarm sound cannot completely solve the problem

For example, a doctor may not realize that a remote monitor has malfunctioned or even disconnected, and the monitor will not issue any alarms at all

In addition, sometimes doctors may concentrate on dealing with a patient's condition during a certain period of time and have no time to take care of other patients

Therefore, the monitor in the prior art is not convenient for the doctor to monitor multiple patients at the same time.
