Presenting patient information by body system

Abstract

Methods, computer systems, and computer storage media are provided for sorting and presenting a patient's medical information by body system. A selection of a body system filter directed to a body system is received, and the patient's medical information is accessed. The selected body system filter is applied to the patient's medical information to generate a set of body-system specific patient information. The body-system specific patient information is presented on a body system view user interface.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . One or more computer storage media having computer-executable instructions embodied thereon that, when executed, perform a method of presenting patient information by body system, the method comprising:
 receiving a selection of at least one body system filter directed to a first body system;   accessing a patient's medical information stored in association with an electronic medical record;   applying the at least one body system filter to the patient's medical information to generate a set of body-system specific medical information; and   presenting the body-system specific medical information on a user interface.   
     
     
         2 . The media of  claim 1 , wherein the at least one body system filter comprises one or more selected from the following:
 (A) neurological,   (B) cardiovascular,   (C) lungs,   (D) renal-fluid,   (E) GI-nutrition,   (F) integument,   (G) musculoskeletal,   (H) endocrine,   (I) hematology,   (J) inflammation, and   (K) immunocompromised.   
     
     
         3 . The media of  claim 2 , wherein the at least one body system filter further comprises a user configurable body system filter. 
     
     
         4 . The media of  claim 1 , wherein the set of body-system specific patient information comprises one or more selected from the following:
 (A) clinical observation information related to the first body system,   (B) physiologic information related to the first body system,   (C) laboratory result information related to the first body system,   (D) medication order information related to the first body system, and   (E) non-medication order information related to the first body system.   
     
     
         5 . The media of  claim 1 , wherein the set of body-system specific patient information is modifiable by a user. 
     
     
         6 . The media of  claim 1 , further comprising:
 accessing a plurality of outcome goals stored in association with a data store;   applying the at least one body system filter to the plurality of outcome goals to generate a set of body-system specific outcome goals; and   presenting the set of body-system specific outcome goals on the user interface.   
     
     
         7 . The media of  claim 6 , wherein the set of body-system specific outcome goals is modifiable by a user. 
     
     
         8 . One or more computer storage media having computer-executable instructions embodied thereon that, when executed, produce a graphical user interface (GUI) to facilitate presenting a body system view of patient information, the GUI comprising:
 a current state display area configured to present current information related to a patient's body system;   an order display area configured to present current orders related to the patient's body system; and   an outcome goals display area configured to present a set of outcome goals related to the patient's body system.   
     
     
         9 . The GUI of  claim 8 , wherein the current information comprises data items related to clinical observation information, physiologic information, and laboratory results information. 
     
     
         10 . The GUI of  claim 9 , wherein one or more of the data items related to the clinical observation information, the physiologic information, and the laboratory results information are taggable by a user, and wherein the user-tagged data items are used, in part, to create a clinical note. 
     
     
         11 . The GUI of  claim 8 , wherein the current information represents clinical observation information, physiologic information, and laboratory results information collected over the previous 1000 hours. 
     
     
         12 . The GUI of  claim 8 , wherein the current state display area is selectable, and wherein selection of the current state display area initiates the presentation of trending information related to the current information. 
     
     
         13 . The GUI of  claim 12 , wherein the trending information comprises the current information over the past 24 hours. 
     
     
         14 . The GUI of  claim 8 , wherein the current orders include medication orders and non-medication orders. 
     
     
         15 . The GUI of  claim 14 , wherein the non-medication orders include laboratory and procedural orders. 
     
     
         16 . The GUI of  claim 8 , wherein the order display area is selectable, and wherein selection of the order display area initiates the presentation of an order action display screen configurable to receive one or more user actions corresponding to at least one of the current orders. 
     
     
         17 . The GUI of  claim 16 , wherein the one or more user actions comprise at least one of a modify action, a suspend action, and a cancel action. 
     
     
         18 . The GUI of  claim 8 , wherein one or more of the current orders are taggable by a user and are used to create, in part, a clinical note. 
     
     
         19 . The GUI of  claim 8 , further comprising:
 a summary display area configured to present a summary of user actions taken with respect to one or more of the current information, the current orders, and the outcome goals.   
     
     
         20 . One or more computer storage media having computer-executable instructions embodied thereon that, when executed, perform a method of presenting patient information in a body system view, the method comprising:
 receiving a request for a body system view of a patient's medical information;   accessing the patient's medical information stored in association with an electronic medical record;   identifying a subset of the patient's medical information that is within a predetermined time period;   applying a plurality of body system filters to the subset of the patient's medical information to generate a plurality of sets of body-system specific patient information, each body system filter of the plurality of body system filters directed to a different body system; and   presenting the plurality of sets of body-system specific patient information on a user interface of a display device.
