Abstract
Systems and methods for nonverbally communicating patient comfort data are disclosed herein. In some embodiments, the systems and methods may include one or more operations including receiving patient comfort data associated with one or more patients through a patient comfort level input device during a course of a treatment session, transmitting the patient comfort data associated with one or more patients received through the patient comfort level input device, and alerting one or more practitioners of the patient comfort data associated with one or more patients received through the patient comfort level input device. In some embodiments, the systems and methods may include at least one of the additional operations of receiving objective data indicating one or more particular treatment types substantially contemporaneously with a performance of the one or more particular treatment types and automatically generating one or more objective treatment session notes for inclusion within at least one of one or more patient charts and one or more medical records.
