Summary: | A monitoring system for a patient and/or patient support apparatus includes one or more cameras that capture images and depth data. A computer processes the image signals and depth data and performs one or more of the following functions: (a) enabling/disabling a remote control adapted to move a component of the patient support apparatus; (b) detecting patient breathing abnormalities; (c) detecting the presence of a ligature and its attendant strangulation risk to the patient; (d) identifying a sheet and/or a patient gown in the captured images; (e) disabling/enabling controls on the patient support apparatus based on patient position; (f) synchronizing readings from one or more sensors with the image signals; (g) stitching together images captured from multiple cameras; and/or other functions. The cameras may be positioned on the patient support apparatus and/or elsewhere, and the computer may be a server and/or a controller on the patient support apparatus. |
