Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A medical system according to embodiments of the present invention includes at least one sensor configured to monitor physiological status of a patient and to generate sensor data based on the physiological status, a user interface device, a processor communicably coupled to the user interface device, the processor configured to: present via the user interface device an array of two or more possible input elements, the input elements each comprising a class of patients or a diagnosis and treatment pathway, receive a selected input element based on a user selection among the two or more possible input elements, acquire the sensor data and process the sensor data to generate physiological data, and present via the user interface screen the physiological data according to a template that is customized for the selected input element.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A medical monitoring system for providing acute care to a patient, the medical monitoring system comprising: a defibrillator configured to administer a defibrillating shock to the patient and comprising physiological sensors comprising an electrocardiogram (ECG) sensor and one or more of a pulse oximetry sensor and a capnography sensor; at least one processor configured to: receive signals indicative of physiological data from the physiological sensors, the physiological data comprising ECG data and one or more of pulse oximetry data and capnography data, receive ultrasound signals, from an ultrasound sensor, to provide sonographic images of the patient, process the signals indicative of physiological data to generate the physiological data, and process the ultrasound signals to generate examination findings comprising sonographic image data; and at least one display communicatively coupled to the at least one processor and comprising a touchscreen, the at least one display configured to provide a user interface comprising an integrated view of the physiological data and the examination findings comprising the sonographic image data, wherein the examination findings comprising the sonographic image data comprise at least one sonographic view of the thorax of the patient captured based on displayed information for assisting a user in performing a focused assessment with sonography. 2. The medical monitoring system of claim 1 , wherein the at least one processor is configured to cause the user interface to display visual information to assist in carrying out a cardiac arrest ultrasound exam protocol. 3. The medical monitoring system of claim 1 , wherein the at least one processor is configured to cause the user interface to display information to assist the user in identifying whether the patient has a pneumothorax. 4. The medical monitoring system of claim 1 , wherein the physiological data provided at the at least one display comprises a heart rate. 5. The medical monitoring system of claim 1 , wherein the at least one processor is configured to cause the user interface to display visual pulse oximetry information. 6. The medical monitoring system of claim 1 , wherein the at least one processor is configured to cause the user interface to display visual capnography information. 7. The medical monitoring system of claim 6 , wherein the visual capnography information comprises at least one CO2 waveform. 8. The medical monitoring system of claim 7 , wherein the physiological data comprises an ECG waveform. 9. The medical monitoring system of claim 6 , wherein the visual capnography information comprises at least one numeric value of CO2. 10. The medical monitoring system of claim 1 , wherein the physiological data comprises an ECG waveform. 11. The medical monitoring system of claim 1 , wherein the physiological data comprises blood pressure data, the physiological sensors comprise a non-invasive blood pressure (NIBP) sensor, and the at least one processor is configured to: receive and process signals from the NIBP sensor to generate NIBP data for the patient, and cause the user interface to display the NIBP data in the integrated view of the physiological data and the examination findings. 12. The medical monitoring system of claim 1 , wherein the at least one processor is configured to cause the user interface to display respiration rate information indicative of respiration of the patient. 13. The medical monitoring system of claim 1 , wherein the at least one processor is configured to cause the user interface to display blood oxygen information indicative of blood oxygen content of the patient. 14. The medical monitoring system of claim 1 , wherein the at least one sonographic view of the thorax of the patient includes a sonographic four-chamber view of the heart of the patient. 15. The medical monitoring system of claim 1 , wherein the at least one sonographic view of the thorax of the patient includes a sonographic view of the lungs of the patient. 16. The medical monitoring system of claim 15 , wherein the at least one sonographic view of the thorax of the patient includes an anteromedial view of a lung of the patient. 17. The medical monitoring system of claim 1 , wherein the at least one sonographic view of the thorax of the patient includes a sonographic view of the pericardium of the patient. 18. The medical monitoring system of claim 1 , wherein the at least one sonographic view of the thorax of the patient includes a sonographic view of the pleura of the patient. 19. The medical monitoring system of claim 1 , wherein the at least one sonographic view of the thorax of the patient includes a sonographic view of the second intercostal space of the patient at the midclavicular line bilaterally. 20. The medical monitoring system of claim 1 , wherein the at least one sonographic view of the thorax of the patient is based on at least one of a subcostal window, parasternal window, and apical thoracic window. 21. The medical monitoring system of claim 1 , further comprising the ultrasound sensor configured to provide the ultrasound signals to the at least one processor. 22. The medical monitoring system of claim 1 , wherein the user interface is provided by the defibrillator. 23. The medical monitoring system of claim 1 , wherein the user interface is provided by a device separate from the defibrillator. 24. The medical monitoring system of claim 1 , wherein the focused assessment with sonography comprises a focused assessment with sonography in trauma.
