Abstract
Automated alert system software may interface with an electronic medical records (EMR) system and provide interested individuals with immediate notifications of critical changes during a patient's course of treatment in a hospital. This may reduce or minimize the amount of time it takes to notify families of critical moments during a hospital admission, for example. The automated alert system software may interface with the hospital EMR system by directly reading and extracting the necessary information from the database, such as the patient name and emergency contact information.
Claims20
A system, comprising:
- a medical professional workstation configured to run a hospital emergency medical records (EMR) application and an EMR message monitor application;
- an application server configured to run a server-side automated alert application that operates in concert with the EMR message monitor application;
- and
- a user device configured to run a user automated alert application that operates in concert with the server-side automated alert application, wherein
- the EMR message monitor application is configured to interface with the hospital EMR application and monitor for one or more changes a condition of a patient that require notification of an authorized individual associated with the user device.
A computer-implemented method, comprising:
- monitoring, by an emergency medical records (EMR) message monitor application, for one or more changes a condition of a patient that require notification of an authorized individual associated with a user device;
- when one or more changes in the patient's condition are detected that require notification of the authorized individual associated with the user device, executing a notification procedure, by the EMR message monitor application, by transmitting a message comprising information pertaining to the one or more changes in the condition of the patient to a server-side automated alert application.
A computer-implemented method, comprising:
- detecting a patient condition change in an emergency medical records (EMR) application, by an EMR message monitor application;
- and
- sending a message to a server-side automated alert application running on an application server that comprises information about detected patient condition change, by the EMR message monitor application.
