The Mobile-PatientViewer is a wireless hand-held device that gives caregivers real-time mobile access to their patient's vital sign data from virtually anywhere within the hospital enterprise. Clinicians can observe real-time patient vital signs, waveforms, stored events and retrospective data in the palm of their hand. In fact, the hand-held PC is about the size of a paperback book – small enough to carry in your pocket. That means more frequent patient contact and the opportunity for care and efficiency improvements.

The Value of Open and Wireless Technology
The Mobile-PatientViewer not only displays ECG data from VitalCom ambulatory transmitters, but also from other manufacturers' medical devices connected to the PatientNet system. Through VitalCom's wireless transmitters or hardwired networks, PatientNet captures data regardless of patient location – bedside, ambulatory or in transport – and displays it on the hand-held Mobile-PatientViewer.

Here are some of the user-friendly features and robust capabilities of the Mobile-PatientViewer:

Real-Time Waveform Viewer

  • See dynamic waveform from VitalCom or other manufacturers' devices connected to PatientNet.
  • Select and display one dynamic waveform from a maximum of seven per patient.
  • Review patient name, physician name, room number and alarm condition.

History Viewer/Event List

  • Examine stored, event-triggered static waveforms for an event.
  • Select from an Event List database of all stored events in chronological order.
  • Review additional data such as patient name, physician name, room number, reason or explanation of event and event ID.

List Trends Viewer

  • View all associated vital signs for a patient in a numerical list trend format.
  • Sort information by date and time, including both current and retrospective data.

Vitals Viewer
  • Display the most recent associated vital signs for a patient. (Future enhancements will allow caregivers to send values to the hospital's clinical charting system.)

Patient List Viewer

  • List all patients currently monitored on PatientNet. The list is dynamically updated as patients are discharged or admitted.
  • See patient name, room number and primary physician name.
