Abstract

Disclosed herein are various embodiments of systems and methods for visualizing, analyzing, and managing telepresence devices operating in a telepresence network of healthcare facilities. A user may selectively view a global view of all telepresence devices, telepresence devices within a particular region, the details of a particular telepresence device, and/or the details of a particular healthcare facility. At one viewing level, a user may view a plan view map of a healthcare facility and visualize the navigational history of a telepresence device. At another viewing level, a user may view a plan view map of a healthcare facility and visualize telemetry data of a patient associated with a selected room. At another viewing level, a user may selectively view various graphical representations of telepresence device statistics and usage information with respect to health ratings for each of a plurality of patients.

First claim

What is claimed:

1. A computer program product, comprising a non-transitory computer-readable-medium having executable computer program code, the computer program code configured to cause a computer to:
receive a plurality of telepresence device statistics, each telepresence device statistic comprising information associated with the use of a telepresence device in a healthcare network comprising a plurality of telepresence devices coupled to a network;
display a telepresence device statistic selection panel configured to allow a user to select one or more of the plurality of telepresence device statistics;
receive a selection of at least one telepresence device statistic via the telepresence device statistic selection panel; and
display a visual representation of the selected at least one telepresence device statistic, wherein the plurality of telepresence device statistics comprises a telepresence device statistic indicating how many sessions were conducted using the telepresence device during specified a time period.

2. The computer program product of claim 1 , the computer program code is further configured to cause the computer to:
receive a rating for each of the plurality of patients treated via a telepresence device, the ratings associated with a health aspect of each of the plurality of patients; and
wherein to display the visual representation the computer program code is further configured to cause the computer to:
display a graph of the at least one selected telepresence device statistic with respect to each of the plurality of patients on a coordinate system; and
display an indication of the rating for each of the plurality of patients with respect to each of the plurality of patients displayed on the coordinate system.

3. The computer program product of claim 2 , wherein the rating for each of the plurality of patients comprises an outcome rating corresponding to a health aspect of a discharged patient.

4. The computer program product of claim 1 , wherein the computer program code is further configured to cause a computer to:
receive a primary patient condition for each of the plurality of patients;
display a filter selection panel comprising a condition filter input, the condition filter input configured to allow a user to select one or more primary patient conditions;
receive at least one selection via the filter selection panel;
remove from visual representation any telepresence device statistic not associated with the selections made via the filter selection panel; and
update the visual representation of the at least one selected telepresence device statistic based on the selections made via the filter selection panel.

5. The computer program product of claim 1 , wherein the computer program code is further configured to cause a computer to:
receive information identifying a primary physician for each of the plurality of patients;
display a filter selection panel comprising a primary physician filter input, the primary physician filter input configured to allow a user to select one or more primary physicians;
receive at least one selection via the filter selection panel;
remove from the visual representation any of the telepresence device statistics not associated with the at least one selection made via the filter selection panel; and
update the visual representation of the at least one selected telepresence device statistic based on the selections made via the filter selection panel.

6. The computer program product of claim 1 , wherein the computer program code is further configured to cause a computer to:
receive information identifying a room associated with each of the plurality of patients;
display a filter selection panel comprising a room filter input, the room filter input configured to allow a user to select one or more rooms of a healthcare facility;
receive at least one selection via the filter selection panel;
remove from the visual representation any of the plurality of patients not associated with the at least one selection made via the filter selection panel; and
update the visual representation of the at least one selected telepresence device statistic based on the selections made via the filter selection panel.

7. The computer program product of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of telepresence device statistics comprises a telepresence device statistic indicating how many visits were made to each of the plurality of patients by the telepresence device during a time period.

8. The computer program product of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of telepresence device statistics comprises a telepresence device statistic associated with a usage of a telepresence device accessory on each of the plurality of patients during a time period, the telepresence device statistic configured to measure a physiological parameter.

9. The computer program product of claim 8 , wherein the telepresence device accessory is configured to determine one of a blood pressure, a heart rate, a temperature, a respiration rate, and electrocardiogram information.

10. The computer program product of claim 8 , wherein the telepresence device accessory comprises one of a stethoscope, an otoscope, and a medical imaging device.

11. The computer program product of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of telepresence device statistics comprises a telepresence device statistic associated with a usage of a camera of the telepresence device during a time period.

12. The computer program product of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of telepresence device statistics comprises a telepresence device statistic associated with a location of the telepresence device relative to each of the plurality of patients during a time period.
