Abstract :
The Clinical Engineering (a.k.a. biomedical engineering) Department has heretofore lagged in adoption of some of the leading-edge information system tools used in other industries. This present application is part of a DOD-funded SBIR grant to improve the overall management of medical technology, and describes the capabilities that strategic graphical dashboards (SGDs) can afford. This SGD is built on top of an Oracle database, and uses custom-written graphic objects like gauges, fuel tanks, and geographic information system (GIS) maps to improve and accelerate decision making
