Abstract

See full text

A system for generating operational metrics data for a medical care facility includes a first camera and an operational metrics device. The first camera generates digital images of a first detection area. The operational metrics device includes an optical code detector, a medical object detector, and an operational metrics generator. The optical code detector generates optical code detection data indicative of the presence or absence of optical codes within each of the digital images. Each of the optical codes is disposed on a respective medical object. The medical object detector generates medical object detection data indicative the presence or absence of each medical object within the first detection area. For each medical object, the operational metrics generator generates operational metrics data based at least partially on a determined amount of time that each medical object was present within the first detection area.
