| abstract |
Apparatus and methods are described including a location sensing system that comprises a plurality of location sensors, and which is configured to identify respective locations of a plurality of clinicians, and to generate a location-sensing-system signal in response thereto. A patient-monitoring system includes a sensor, configured to measure a clinical parameter of a patient, and to generate a sensor signal in response thereto. A control unit of the patient-monitoring system includes signal analysis functionality that is configured to determine that an alert event has occurred, in response to the first sensor signal. In response to the location-sensing-system signal, the signal analysis functionality designates a first subset of the clinicians, and, in response to having determined that the alert event has occurred, the signal analysis functionality communicates the alert to the first subset of clinicians. Other applications are also described. |
