Abstract
A system for automatically integrating various patient monitoring equipment into a nurse call system is implemented by incorporating a software system agent that translates communications in the patient monitoring equipment communication channel to a software system readable format. By translating the patient monitoring system's communications, a software system or computer can interpret the communications and act accordingly by signaling staff members, doctors, etc., in a manner that was not feasible by the hardware of the patient monitoring system. By interpreting the communications and having a nurse call system translation feature in the software system agent, nurse call systems can be 'coupled' to the patient monitoring system to enable a synergy between systems that were here thereto incompatible or had limited functional capabilities. By combining non-compatible or limited feature patient monitoring systems with nurse systems, and by using a software process to interpret and control responses, enhanced functionalities and alerting capabilities are made available.
