Patient Monitoring

Visual Patient Avatar

A new way to see your patient's vitals take shape

Visual Patient Avatar translates the wealth of information from Philips IntelliVue patient monitors into visual patient data using an avatar that displays color, shape and animation.
This innovative approach to monitoring aims to improve the growing concern of errors related to situational awareness, responsible for up to 80% of anesthesia incidents1

Information overload from multiple displays makes it difficult to get a quick situation overview of the patient.
Visual Patient Avatar offers a simple, functional design that has been shown to help users recall vital sign information significantly faster2

Features

Peripheral vision thumb

Activating a new sense in the OR: peripheral vision

Studies indicate that care providers can only directly look at a monitor about 5% of the time3. Visual Patient helps care providers to see colors and movements in their peripheral view without looking directly at the monitor. This enables the physician to continue to observe the surgical field while still perceiving relevant information from the monitor. By activating peripheral vision we’re activating an entirely new connection to the monitor and patient.

Clinical decision support

A new level in clinical decision support

  • For use in the operating room
  • Supports all clinical skill levels
  • Translates numerical vital signs data into an avatar using color, shape and animation
  • Helps you distinguish between stable and dynamically changing conditions, so you can act before parameter alarming sets in
  • Features a simple, functional, innovative design, for one-glance holistic recognition of significant changes in patient status

Innovation thumb

Innovation inspired from aviation

Flying a plane and caring for a patient involve continuous evaluation of critical data. Inspired by synthetic vision in aviation, the Visual Patient Avatar was originally developed by a team of licensed pilots and anesthesiologists who saw the similarities of the cockpit and the OR and sought to bring these concepts into the fast-paced operating room.
