RI Trend - Kiosk allows for clinicians to easily visualize Rothman Index graphs for a designated group of patients from authorized (pre-determined) desktop or wall mounted monitors.
Kiosk Use Cases
RI Trend - Kiosk can be useful for a variety of use cases, including the following:
- Unit Surveillance - The RI Trend- Kiosk view displays an auto-refreshing uint view ideal for Change-of-shift reporting from Charge Nurse to Charge Nurse and between bedside Nurses, as well as during Care Coordination Rounds which often occur around the kiosk. Nursing Unit Managers and educators like to glance frequently at their respective units identifying potential patients requiring adjusted care when not rounding on the unit. Kiosks should be placed near bed boards, nursing stations, medication rooms, and /or in other locations that afford frequent and convenient review by clinicians.
- House-wide Surveillance - The RI Trend- Kiosk can be set to display multiple units from within one facility appealing to Rapid Response Teams or Command Center Hubs, as well as House Supervisors and Case Management. House-wide views promote proactive rapid response by clinicians, enables acuity assessment for appropriate new admission bed placement by House Supervisors, and highlights patients for discharge readiness by Case Management.
RI Trend - Kiosk Access
The Kiosk interface is accessed via an internet connected web browser and displayed on a large-screen display for viewing by healthcare organization staff members. Kiosks are an “always-up” display that does not include any PHI but provide the level of detail needed to monitor patient RI Scores. The Kiosk view will automatically refresh every minute and display a last updated date/time stamp. Since the RI Trend - Kiosk is a view only application without any patient PHI present there is no requirement for a user login or authentication.

This is accomplished by assigning configuration values to a Kiosk preference ID. This preference ID is included in the “Kiosk URL”. RI Trend - kiosk allows for the following kiosk options:
