  • Publication number: 20040215488
    Abstract: A therapy system features at least one therapist computer to create or maintain therapy programs and at least one patient computer. In the course of the therapy, the patient computer is connected with a therapy sensor that again is connected with the therapist computer via a data network. A communication module controls the data flow from the therapist computer to the patient computer. The communication module is designed in such a way that in the beginning of a therapy session a configuration packet is transmitted from the therapist computer to the patient computer that manages the release of at least one certain therapy program already preloaded on the patient computer. Conducting a therapy method using this therapy system, at first a computer-based executable therapy program is created and installed on at least one patient computer. Then a therapy plan is created, therapy information that mirror the therapy plan are transmitted from the therapist computer to the patient computer.

  • Publication number: 20040023197
    Abstract: A method and a system for providing support when selecting a training program as part of therapy planning. A capability profile for a patient and a first database are provided. The first database contains a plurality of past comparative capability profiles for comparative patients and an allocation of training programs respectively prescribed on the basis of these comparative capability profiles. A data processing station automatically compares the patient's capability profile with the comparative capability profiles and selects and displays from the first database, one or more suitable training programs for which the associated comparative capability profile matches the patient's capability profile to a prescribable degree of similarity. The method and the associated system make it easier for the physician or therapist to select an individual training program.

  • Publication number: 20030225316
    Abstract: A method and a system are for measuring the success of treatment of a medical therapy. In the method, at least one treatment objective is defined at a first data processing station and a calculation rule is provided for the success of treatment of the therapy, the calculation rule indicating the success of treatment as a function of recordable numerical measures. Furthermore, a second data processing station is provided for the automated recording and transmission of the numerical measures describing the success of treatment to the first data processing station. At the start of the therapy, the initial state of the patient with respect to the treatment objective is recorded using first numerical measures. During and/or at the end of the treatment, automatic second numerical measures describing the success of treatment are recorded by way of the second data processing station.
