Abstract
An interactive medical information display system and method for displaying user-definable patient events is provided. The system includes a mechanism for acquiring physiological parameters from a patient and a mechanism for storing the parameters in a real-time database. In addition, the system includes a mechanism for users to define event types in an event defintion language and a mechanism for users to modify existing event types. Users then select a set of event types for display, and an event generator accesses the database to monitor the physiological parameters in order to detect event occurrences as defined by the event types. A display mechanism displays the event occurrences and provides users with the ability to select event occurrences randomly or sequentially. Upon selection, other information is displayed.
