Abstract
This invention describes a patient monitoring system which creates graphical displays of various pulmonary and other patient functions so that physicians and clinicians can quickly and accurately make decisions about the patient's care based on the graphical displays while in the intensive care unit. Patient functions are monitored and pulmonary models are implemented to graphically reveal relationships between the basic information input to the system from monitoring devices and the models so that physicians can utilize the revealed relationships to make informed accurate diagnoses and design therapeutic plans concerning the patient.
