“…Such an analysis can take into consideration various other factors like food intake, drug delivery, onset of fever, cough, etc., and account for expected variations due to these before deciding that the signal variation is outside limits and an alert is to be generated. [2] Generation of an alert to various hierarchies of the clinical staff involved in the treatment of the patient needs careful planning. At the lowest level we have the duty nurses who are to be alerted about the violation.…”

-An automated context aware dynamic alert system from an Intensive Care Unit to smart phones using GPRS was developed. The developed system collectively looks at all the available data on a patient before generating an alert. In order to achieve this, the system continuously monitors all the available vital signals before concluding the seriousness of the situation and generates an alert based on the conclusion and also a set of contexts. Setting up dynamic threshold values for vital signs based on the patient history and the current condition is another major challenge in such a system. An Internet interface allowed data inspection from a remote location and individual patient details for alert generation to be programmed through a web page. The smart alert generation system delivers the alert based on the current context of the recipient. This is made possible by continuously evaluating the various contexts of the recipients. We are implementing a smart phone based system for automation of the workflow in the ICU. This system can be made ubiquitous in the future. This paper presents the working of the smart alert system which is under development.
