SYSTEM FOR LABORATORY VALUES AUTOMATED ANALYSIS AND RISK NOTIFICATION IN INTENSIVE CARE UNIT

摘要

In a risk level assessment method for a plurality of clinical conditions as follows, a set of laboratory test results (32) are stored with time stamps for a patient, including at least one hematology test result and at least one arterial blood gas (ABG) test result. For each clinical condition, a risk level is determined for the clinical condition based on a clinical condition-specific sub-set of the stored set of laboratory test results. This determination is made conditional on the stored clinical condition-specific sub-set of laboratory test results being sufficient to determine the risk level. A time stamp is assigned to each determined risk level based on the time stamps for the laboratory test results of the clinical condition-specific sub-set of laboratory test results. A display device (44, 46) displays the determined risk level and the assigned time stamp for each clinical condition whose determined risk level satisfies a display criterion.
