Ease of Use
Philips is also focusing on innovations to enhance the usability of monitors. A few recent examples* are the developments of alarm sounds to reduce alarm fatigue and create environments that promote patient recovery. In addition, Philips recently introduced the Visual Patient Avatar that aggregates patient data from the monitor, during surgery, into a "virtual patient" on the monitor screen to help caregivers interpret data more easily.
