Abstract
The present disclosure describes a visual display for a medical monitor that may present a plurality of visualizations representative of physiological measurements. The visualizations may differ depending on whether the corresponding physiological parameter is within an expected range. The visualizations may include text, waveforms, images, video, and 3-dimensional representations. The visualizations may include different sizes and display properties such as colors, font types, and font styles.
Claims20
A physiological monitor, comprising:
- a display;
- a sensor port configured to receive a physiological signal;
- a processor in communication with the display and the sensor port, wherein the processor processes the physiological signal to generate a physiological measurement, compares the physiological measurement to an alarm threshold, and presents a visualization of the physiological measurement on the display at a first size when the physiological measurement is within the alarm threshold and present the visualization of the physiological measurement on the display at a second size when the physiological measurement is at or outside the alarm threshold.
A physiological monitor, comprising:
- a display;
- a sensor port;
- and
- a processing component in communication with the display and the sensor port, wherein the processing component generates a physiological measurement based on input received via the sensor port, determines whether the physiological measurement meets an alarm condition, and alters the appearance of a visualization of the physiological measurement on the display when the physiological measurement meets the alarm condition such that the visualization can be read at a greater distance than when the appearance of the visualization is unaltered.
A method for displaying one or more visualizations of physiological measurements, comprising:
- displaying a first visualization of a first physiological measurement on a display at a first size when the first physiological measurement is within a first expected range;
- and
- displaying the first visualization of the first physiological measurement on the display at a second size when the first physiological measurement is outside the expected range.
