Title:
HEALTH-MONITORING SYSTEM WITH MULTIPLE HEALTH MONITORING DEVICES, INTERACTIVE VOICE RECOGNITION, AND MOBILE INTERFACES FOR DATA COLLECTION AND TRANSMISSION
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2013/152189
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
This disclosure describes a remote patient monitoring system configured to monitor one or more patient parameters via one or more monitoring apparatuses for transmitting patient data to a remote, central data-processing facility via a network. The system further includes an interactive voice recognition ("IVR") system and mobile interfaces for health data collection and transmission via direction communication with the patient. According to embodiments, with the information received from the patient monitoring system, one or more scored indicative of a patient's health status is calculated. The scores are compared to threshold values and, based on the comparisons, further action is taken. For example, a medical caregiver can evaluate the patient's condition, including the effectiveness of the drug therapy, patient compliance, whether the patient's condition is improving, whether the patient requires hospitalization or an office consultation to prevent the condition from getting worse, etc. Enabling medical caregivers to remotely monitor and manage a patient's condition may reduce hospitalizations by early identification of health issues.
