GIFIC. A graphical interface for intensive care.
GIFIC (Graphical Interface for Intensive Care) applies a new graphical language paradigm to intensive care unit information. By using this new graphical paradigm. coupled to simple rule based decision making tools, a complete display of intensive care unit patient information can be placed on a single screen. This includes such diverse items as lab work, cultures, patient devices, input and output and imaging studies. This article represents the initial time/accuracy, and training time studies based on this technology. Preliminary data suggests that significant time savings, without loss of accuracy of assessment can be obtained with as little as 8 hours of training.
