A health monitoring unit includes a hardware processor, a memory, a display, and a graphical user interface (GUI) stored in the memory. The GUI is executed by the processor to provide a selection screen enabling a user to select parameters for viewing on the display from among health parameters of a living subject being tracked by the health monitoring unit. The GUI also presents a main screen showing the parameters selected by the user, the main screen including an icon for communicating a hypotension probability index (HPI) status of the living subject. In addition, the GUI overlays an alarm screen as a pop-up on the display if the HPI of the living subject satisfies a predetermined risk criteria, and enables the user to access an HPI diagnostic screen showing values for a subset of the health parameters identified as predictive of a future hypotension event for the living subject.

The present disclosure provides systems that include a flow probe that senses fluid flow or mass flow of fluid delivery to a patient. Based at least in part on the sensed fluid or mass flow, the flow probe provides flow-related data (e.g., volume or mass flow rate) that the system uses to derive a volume of fluid being delivered. The fluid can be delivered from an IV bag, another in-line port, or a combination of the two. The disclosed systems provide fluid volume and/or fluid rate for display to a clinician and an informative understanding of what volume of fluid/mass a patient has received.
