  • Patent number: 12191014
    Abstract: A system, method and article of manufacture are presented for improving therapy such as adjustment of a chronotherapeutic pharmaceutical regimen. Physiological variables are measured longitudinally and a time series of the measurements is constructed. In some cases, a time series is pre-whitened and transformed to a frequency spectrum while applying multi-taper filtering, and entropy or other statistical measures are calculated for the power spectral distribution. Improved timing, medication and dosage are individually or collectively improved and/or verified through successive testing. An improvement is illustrated for hypertension, using medication to achieve autonomic control and to reduce blood pressure variability and to reduce spectral diversion.

  • Patent number: 12080396
    Abstract: A system and method of visually displaying healthcare protocols to a user receives from the user, via an electronic communications network, search term(s) associated with a health-related condition. A corpus of document(s) stored in an electronic format is identified with a computer and, based on the search term(s), at least one of the document(s) is analyzed with the computer for a treatment protocol associated with the health-related condition. First content for presentation to the user is determined with the computer, the first content including at least a portion of the treatment protocol associated with the health-related condition. A risk value indicative of risk(s) associated with the first content is determined. In response to a determination that the risk value exceeds the risk threshold, second content for presentation is determined by reformatting the first content.

  • Patent number: 11901063
    Abstract: The present invention includes a method for representing a plurality of pre-calculated solutions in radiation therapy that are stored in a database and displayed in a manner controllable by a user. Arrays of DVH curves provide the user with essential information on the ‘quality of a plan’. A DVH diagram is displayed as a main diagram, wherein only one of the solutions is visually represented at a time. By selecting a first starting point on a selected DVH curve as the main diagram, a first straight axis extending through the first starting point is placed. A first region, located around the first starting point and on the first straight axis, is highlighted as a first control region for controllable visualization of the plurality of currently non-displayed solutions stored in the database, the DVH curves of which correspond to the selected DVH curve and intersect the first straight axis.

  • Patent number: 11887027
    Abstract: The present technology calculates a value of future adherence (VFA) score which is a patient-level, predicted, expected cost of conversion from non-adherence to adherence over a specified time-frame. The score consists of three general components: (1) probability of being non-adherent, (2) cost reduction associated with being adherent, and (3) probability of converting from non-adherent to adherent. These values can be combined to create an overall VFA score. A user interface is then provided which shows at least a list of patients and information related to the VFA score.

  • Patent number: 11862343
    Abstract: A medication risk mitigation method utilizing three interventions: a prospective intervention performed by a prescriber, a concurrent intervention performed by a pharmacist and a retroactive intervention performed by a pharmacist. At each intervention, the system of the instant invention utilizes a computer program to compare each prescribed medication to a series of intrinsic and extrinsic data sources in order to identify potential contraindications and, if necessary, modify a prescription. The system also permits secure messaging between prescribers and pharmacists, each with access to the computer program, so as to facilitate communication and reduce medication risks. The system of this invention also permits modeling for hypothetical medication modifications based on the same intrinsic and extrinsic data sources.

  • Patent number: 11804304
    Abstract: Neurological abnormalities are often discovered through observation by health care providers, and/or parent report. Many neurodevelopmental disorders such as ASD are purely identified through behavioral analysis, and cannot be screened for using a biomarker or quantitative stimulus-response test. Current screening tools contain subjective components based on parent report and clinician observation, vary in consistency of use across providers, and demands resources, knowledge, and access to skilled expertise. As a result, the only tests used today require lengthy and subjective behavioral analysis and often, miss or misidentify neurodevelopmental disorders contributing to a delayed diagnosis. The technology disclosed herein allow for a solution to this systemic problem.
