Abstract:
1. A method for scheduling clinical procedures within a computer system, within a bi-directional computing environment, based on environmental thresholds, the method comprising the steps of: a clinical server system, monitoring environmental conditions of a medical unit in which a clinical procedure will be performed utilizing a unit measurement system that includes an environmental device for monitoring the environmental conditions, wherein the unit measurement system comprises environmental control and, wherein the environmental control is temperature control device of unit management system; the clinical server system, receiving, via a clinical scheduling system, a schedule of clinical procedures of the medical unit, wherein the scheduling system manages time, date or location of clinical procedures within one or more medical units of a facility; the clinical server system identifying environmental thresholds defined in an environmental enterprise threshold unit of the clinical server system, for the medical units, via, an environmental sensor of an environmental measurement device, wherein identified environmental threshold is used for comparison against defined environmental threshold conditions for the medical unit; the clinical server system comparing via a medical unit environmental analyzer, environmental conditions against the environmental threshold to determine if the environmental thresholds are violated, wherein the medical unit environmental analyzer queries the state of operations of the unit management system to determine if the environmental thresholds are violated by measured and monitored environmental conditions of the medical units; and the clinical server system modifying the schedule of clinical procedures of the medical unit based on the compared environmental threshold, responsive to the determination, wherein the scheduled clinical procedures are transferred to another medical unit, or conditions of the medical units are adjusted to meet the identified environmental thresholds of the medical units, if the environmental thresholds are violated of the medical unit are violated.
