Abstract

Patient demographics gathered from a variety of sources are used to create one or more cumulative risk factors that is used to configure a set of initial drug delivery rules controlling factors such as dosing limits, lockouts, alarm thresholds, and informational displays. These initial drug delivery rules may then be modified during a procedure according to a pharmacodynamic profile that is created, updated, and maintained in real time based upon one or more sources of feedback, such as sensors providing information on patient responsiveness, patient cardiovascular conditions, patient pain levels, and clinician inputs. As the system proposes new or modified drug delivery conditions based upon demographic information and real time feedback, clinicians may review and accept or refuse the proposed changes.
