Method and apparatus for an intelligent schedule board for operating rooms for surgical centers and hospitals
A method for providing an intelligent schedule board for operating rooms in surgical centers and hospitals is provided. The method comprises displaying an estimated location of a patient on an operating room schedule board and displaying status information on the operating room schedule board. The method also comprises automatically updating the schedule dashboard as at least one of the location and the status of the patient changes. Patient location is estimated using an indoor tracking system and wherein the system is an RTLS system. Patient status information is entered by staff members by means of at least one of a tablet device, a phone device, and a computer. Patient status information is entered automatically by means of a computer vision scheme that detects patient status comprising at least one of a start of surgery and an end of surgery. Patient status information is entered using a voice recognition scheme.

PLANNING METHOD AND COMPUTER-READABLE RECORDING MEDIUM STORING PLANNING PROGRAM
A computer-implemented method of performing planning processing, the method including: acquiring information of a menu of a predetermined service and information of a stakeholder related to the service; calculating a change frequency of execution of the menu for a combination of the stakeholder and the menu; specifying a menu to be recommended on the basis of the calculated change frequency; and outputting the specified menu to the stakeholder of the calculated combination.
AMBULATORY MEDICAL DEVICE UPDATE WITHOUT INTERRUPTION OF THERAPY DELIVERY
Systems and methods are disclosed herein for updating an application controlling an ambulatory medical device such that application updates can be identified, downloaded and installed without interrupting therapy provided by the ambulatory medical device to a subject. The ambulatory medical device may receive an indication that an update to an application executing on the ambulatory insulin pump is available, establish a communication connection to a host computing system configured to host the application update, and download the application update. The disclosed systems and methods can determine an execution time of an installation and install the downloaded application update without interrupting therapy provided by the ambulatory medical device to the subject.
Switching blood glucose control system execution without interruption of therapy delivery
Systems and methods are disclosed herein for switching control of an ambulatory medical device from an application executing on the ambulatory medical device to a safe version or a new version of the application without interrupting therapy provided by the ambulatory medical device to a subject. The ambulatory medical device can maintain copies of a safe version and a new version of the application. The disclosed systems and methods can execute the new version, while the prior version of the application continues to execute, determine whether a minimum set of operating conditions are satisfied by the new version, and switch control of the ambulatory medical device from the prior version to the new version. The systems and methods can also automatically revert to the safe version of the application case the current version is malfunctioning without interrupting therapy provided to the subject.
RECOVERY PROFILE CLUSTERING TO DETERMINE TREATMENT PROTOCOL AND PREDICT RESOURCING NEEDS
An apparatus and method involve not just comparing a patient's recovery but improving predications by grouping the patient into a phenotype to trend the patient's rate of progress compared to existing phenotype clusters to predict, based on a comparison of rate of progress of decline, and assess in order to benefit in the improvement of allocation and timing of future resource needs, including the economic impact.
