System for monitoring and visualizing a patient treatment process

A patient treatment monitoring system, comprising:

• an interface for receiving a plurality of different types of patient medical information including data derived from a patient monitoring device and a patient medical imaging device;
• a data processor device for processing the received plurality of different types of patient medical information to be suitable for presentation in a display image;
• and
• a display processor device for initiating generation of data representing a single composite display image including,
• an image element representing a plurality of sequentially performed individual stages of a treatment process along a timeline enabling a user to track, using a color-coded stage completion indicator along a procedure performance timeline, progress of the treatment process in time through the individual treatment stages to a current point and identify progress deviation of the treatment stages based on time duration data of progress of a reference case having a similar workflow, said individual stages being associated with corresponding different sets of the received plurality of different types of patient medical information and
• a plurality of image areas for displaying at least one of said corresponding different sets of the received plurality of different types of patient medical information, in response to user selection of a particular stage of said individual stages using said image element, said at least one of said plurality of image areas including a summary image area identifying data presented in said plurality of image areas and being updated in response to detected changes in patient medical data available;
• wherein said data processor device provides a score value presented along said timeline for an individual treatment stage indicating whether a treatment stage is performed on time or earlier or later than a reference time for said treatment stage.

A method for patient treatment monitoring, comprising the activities of:

• employing at least one processing device for,
• receiving a plurality of different types of patient medical information including data derived from a patient monitoring device and a patient medical imaging device;
• processing the received plurality of different types of patient medical information to be suitable for presentation in a display image;
• and
• initiating generation of data representing a single composite display image including,
• an image element representing a plurality of sequentially performed individual stages of a treatment process on a timeline enabling a user to track, using a color-coded stage completion indicator along a procedure performance timeline, progress of the treatment process in time through the individual treatment stages to a current point and identify progress deviation of the treatment stages based on time duration data of progress of a reference case having a similar workflow, said individual stages being associated with corresponding different sets of the received plurality of different types of patient medical information;
• a plurality of image areas for displaying at least one of said corresponding different sets of the received plurality of different types of patient medical information, in response to user selection of a particular stage of said individual stages using said image element;
• and
• a score value for an individual treatment stage indicating whether a treatment stage is performed on time or earlier or later than a reference time for said treatment stage.
