Description

TECHNICAL FIELD The present disclosure relates generally to the technical field of hospital devices, and more particularly to a hospital device and an information display method for the hospital device. BACKGROUND During clinical treatment, medical staff usually monitor multiple patients simultaneously through a hospital device such as a central station. The central station usually includes a host computer (a processor) and a display. A data communication connection is established between the host computer and a medical device such as a patient monitor, to obtain patient information. This information is then displayed on the display to monitor the patient. In a current display scheme, when the patient monitoring information is abnormal or the medical device used by the patient is abnormal, alarm information associated with the patient will be displayed on the display. Emergency alarm requires the medical staff to take treatment measures immediately upon knowing it. If the medical staff cannot be notified promptly, this could lead to serious consequences. However, because the information of multiple patients is displayed on the display, a volume of the displayed information is large, and it may be difficult for the medical staff to pay attention to the emergency alarm immediately, which may lead to serious consequences. In addition, after the medical staff sees the alarm information, they will perform a confirmation operation for the alarm information, indicating that the medical staff is aware of the alarm and will take relevant measures in time to deal with related abnormalities. However, in the current display scheme, after the medical staff performs the confirmation operation for the alarm information, the alarm information is still prominently displayed until a cause of the alarm is resolved, which will disturb the attention of the medical staff and make it difficult for them to notice the alarm information that requires more attention but has not been confirmed. SUMMARY In order to solve at least one of the above problems, the present disclosure provides a hospital device and an information display method for the hospital device. According to an aspect of the present disclosure, there is provided a hospital device including a processor and a display. The processor is configured to obtain patient information for a plurality of patients, the display is configured to present a plurality of display regions on a same display interface, and each of the plurality of display regions presents the patient information for a respective patient. The patient information includes at least patient monitoring information, and when the patient monitoring information is abnormal or a medical device used by the patient is abnormal, the patient information further includes alarm information associated with the monitoring information being abnormal and/or the medical device being abnormal. For at least one display region where the alarm information is present, the alarm information is displayed in the display region in a first display mode before receiving a confirmation operation for the alarm information in the display region, and an additional prompt element is additionally displayed in the display region to highlight a presence of an unconfirmed alarm information. The additional prompt element is displayed in a display mode different from the first display mode, and/or a display region occupied by the additional prompt element is different from the display region occupied by the alarm information. At least a portion of the alarm information is displayed in the display region in a second display mode after receiving the confirmation operation, and the additional prompt element is eliminated. The alarm information displayed in the second display mode exhibits a weakened visual effect relative to the alarm information displayed in the first display mode. According to another aspect of the present disclosure, there is provided an information display method for a hospital device, and the method includes the following operations. Patient information for a plurality of patients is obtained; and a plurality of display regions are presented on a same display interface, and each of the plurality of display regions presents the patient information for a respective patient. The patient information includes at least patient monitoring information, and when the patient monitoring information is abnormal or a medical device used by the patient is abnormal, the patient information further includes alarm information associated with the monitoring information being abnormal and/or the medical device being abnormal. For at least one display region for the alarm information, the alarm information is displayed in the display region in a first display mode before receiving a confirmation operation for the alarm information in the display region, and an additional prompt element is additionally displayed in the display region to highlight a p
