AB The  intensive  care  unit  (ICU)  of  the  future  in  which  technology  enables  dramatic  improvements  to  clinical  care  while  reducing  costs  has  been  predicted  since  the  1970s,  but  has  largely  been  unrealized.1  In  fact,  clinicians  largely  interact  with  patient  data  the  same  way  as  in  the  1950s  when  ICUs  were  first  introduced.  Sensors  measure  different  aspects  of  patient  physiology,  with  the  last  10  seconds  of  waveform  data  displayed  on  a  patient  monitor.  Additional  isolated  medical  devices  measure  more  sophisticated  physiological  processes  that  are  displayed  on  its  own  isolated  display.
