Patent ID: 8553036

Claim:
A computer-implemented method for displaying patient-related data to a care provider, comprising: receiving multiple values relating to one or more patients, the quantity of the multiple values being greater than a graph overflow threshold indicative of an amount of display space of a graph; defining a set of visible values based at least in part on the graph overflow threshold and including some but not all of the multiple values, a set of hidden values including those of the multiple values not in the set of visible values, and a set of anomalous values including any value of the multiple values that qualifies for an anomalous condition; displaying within the display space of the graph the values in the set of visible values; providing an anomaly indicator for any value in both the set of visible values and the set of anomalous values, to notify a care provider of any visible anomalous value relating to the one or more patients; and displaying, instead of any value in the set of hidden values, an overflow identifier indicating the number of values in the set of hidden values, to inform the care provider how many values relating to the one or more patients are not displayed.
