Bed Overview

Introduction

The Bed Management module provides an overview of occupancy for available beds for optimizing usage of beds. Ensuring patients will get the best possible care based on patients needs and available bed capacity.

Cambio has implemented 3 FHIR APIs for exposing BedUnitSituationOverview, BedHospitalSituationOverview and Outliers in order to make this information available outside of COSMIC.

Included Profiles

The resources included in the bed management use cases are BasicUnitBedSituationSe, BasicHospitalBedSituationSe and BasicUnitOutlierSituationSe. The FHIR Basic resource with extensions was used for this purpose since there were no available FHIR resources which matched the use case well. The following profiles were used:

  • BasicUnitBedSituationSe - Contains information about current and near future prognosis of the bed situation for a given unit.

  • BasicHospitalBedSituationSe - Contains bed overview information for the given hospital including prognosis for responsible units, emergency situation, likely admissions and transfers to other hospitals.

  • BasicUnitOutlierSituationSe - Contains current outlier information (outlyingFrom & outlyingTo) for a given unit.
