METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR DETERMINING WHETHER A MONITORED INDIVIDUAL'S HAND(S) HAVE ENTERED A VIRTUAL SAFETY ZONE

摘要

Systems and methods are provided that allow caregivers, central monitoring services, and other persons to monitor whether a monitored individual's hands have entered into an area in which the hands are prohibited, such as areas in which the monitored individual may remove or disturb a piece of medical equipment. When the monitored individual's hands do enter the restricted area that is represented by an electronic virtual safety zone, an alert is generated and transmitted to a designated recipient.
