  • Patent number: 11676734
    Abstract: A computer-implemented therapy management system is operated to collect patient data associated with medical device users. Treatment of the users is managed by healthcare professionals (HCPs), which include a customer HCP and a plurality of non-customer HCPs. The system receives a first set of attributes for a first individual patient or a first group of patients under care of the customer HCP, and a second set of attributes for a second individual patient or a second group of patients. The system identifies a first set of patient records associated with the customer HCP that satisfy the received first attributes, and a second set of patient records that satisfy the received second attributes, and compares patient outcomes from the first set of records against patient outcomes from the second set of records. A comparative therapy report is generated and communicated to a client device associated with the customer HCP.

  • Patent number: 11648398
    Abstract: In some examples, a processor of a system evaluates a therapy program based on a score determined based on a volume of tissue expected to be activated (“VTA”) by therapy delivery according to the therapy program. The score may be determined using an efficacy map comprising a plurality of voxels that are each assigned a value. In some examples, the efficacy map is selected from a plurality of stored efficacy maps based on a patient condition, one or more patient symptoms, or both the patient condition and one or more patient symptoms. In addition, in some examples, voxels of the efficacy map are assigned respective values that are associated with a clinical rating scale.

  • Patent number: 11628253
    Abstract: Systems, and methods relate to a medical device receiving a treatment parameter operating point within a first operating region defined by a first set of operating points for which automatic incremental adjustment of a parameter in the current operation is permitted. In an illustrative example, incremental adjustment may use artificial intelligence based on patient feedback and sensor measurement of outcomes. Some exemplary devices may receive a request to alter the current treatment parameter operating point to a second treatment parameter operating point outside the first operating region and in a second operating region in a known safe operation zone, bounded by a known unsafe zone unavailable to the user. In the second operating region, some examples may restrict the step size of incremental adjustments requested by the user. Data may be collected for cloud-based analysis, for example, to facilitate discovery of more effective treatment protocols.

  • Patent number: 11621064
    Abstract: A bi-directional interface system that facilitates exchange of personal health information (“PHI”) between a mobile device and an electronic health record (“EHR”) system and/or other ancillary systems without storing information on the mobile device. The system may display data that exists in the EHR and/or other ancillary systems valuably viewed at a glance (e.g., vital signs, weight, last void data), as well as facilitate data entry that would feed into the EHR (e.g., vital signs and intake and output). The system may customize at a unit level and/or professional role the information available to health care professionals at the critical time of handoffs and reduce the health care professional's individual need to rely on memory or handwritten notes, further reducing missed information or erroneous information opportunities. The system may provide a mobile application to view and enter patient data to reduce potentially delayed information and treatments of care.

  • Patent number: 11574718
    Abstract: A method and system are disclosed for performing supervised outcome-driven persona-typing, including receiving a first data set having patient specific data, treatment data, and outcome data for each of a plurality of first patients. Once received, the plurality of first patients are grouped based on the first data set, and a persona for each of patient groups is generated. A second data set may then be received for a second patient including second patient specific data. A comparison is then carried out on the second data set to identify an existing persona, and then associate the second patient with the identified persona. Based on each of the above steps, a patient care plan is then created.
