Method For Estimating A Quantity Of A Blood Component In A Fluid Receiver And Corresponding Error

A method comprising:

• accessing, with one or more processors, a first image of a fluid receiver including a fluid;
• determining, with the one or more processors, a first amount of a blood component in the fluid receiver based on the first image;
• determining, with the one or more processors, a first error based on the first amount of the blood component;
• and
• displaying, on a display, the first blood component and the first error.

A method comprising:

• accessing, with one or more processors, an image of a fluid receiver including a fluid;
• determining, with the one or more processors, an amount of a blood component in the fluid receiver based on the image;
• determining, with the one or more processors, an error based on the amount of the blood component, wherein the error is a range of possible estimated amounts of the blood component;
• and
• providing a notification, on a display, when a value within the range of possible estimated amounts of the blood component is outside of a threshold range or amount.

A method comprising:

• accessing, with one or more processors, a first image of a fluid canister including a first fluid;
• accessing, with the one or more processors, a second image of a surgical sponge including a second fluid;
• determining, with the one or more processors, a first amount of a blood component in the fluid canister and a first corresponding error based on the first image;
• determining, with the one or more processors, a second amount of the blood component in the surgical sponge and second corresponding error based on the second image;
• updating, with the one or more processors, an analysis of an aggregate amount of the blood component and an aggregate error associated with blood loss, based upon the first and second amounts of the blood components and the first and second errors;
• and
• providing information derived from the analysis of the aggregate amount of the blood component and the aggregate error.
