  • Patent number: 11227686
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer readable media related to statistical analysis across surgical videos are disclosed. The methods may include receiving video frames across multiple surgical videos, each surgical video comprising multiple surgical procedures performed by a specific medical professional across differing patients. A set of surgical event-related categories may be accessed and video frames of each surgical video may be analyzed to identify surgical events defined by a subgroup of frames. Each subgroup of frames may be assigned to one of the surgical event-related categories to thereby interrelate subgroups of frames from differing surgical procedures to a common surgical event-related category. Statistics may be derived for each surgical event-related category and then aggregated within each category and displayed with the surgical event-related categories for selection.

  • Patent number: 11158412
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer-readable media for generating a personalized action recommendation are provided. The method acquires a request for a service that is associated with a user and the user's condition. The method then identifies one or more features of the user based on stored user information. The method next assigns the user to a segment based on the identified one or more features, generates a set of one or more recommended actions for the user based on the segment, and determines an expected value of each of the one or more recommended actions. The method determines a rank of the one or more recommended actions based on the expected value of each of the one or more recommended actions, and outputs a recommended action with a highest expected value for the user in response to the request for the service.

  • Patent number: 11120897
    Abstract: The present system is configured to track informal observations by multiple caregivers about a care recipient and provide actionable feedback to the multiple caregivers for managing health of the care recipient based on the informal observations. Informal caregivers are constantly observing the health and/or wellness of care recipients they provide care for. Within families for example, multiple informal caregivers coordinate the care they provide for a care recipient amongst each other to balance the workload. These caregivers observe the same care recipient often on different occasions, from different perspectives, and with varying levels of subjectivity. Keeping an eye out for abnormal behavior by the care recipient, changes in capabilities of the care recipient, and/or potential disease progression, for example, are pieces of data caregivers commonly observe in an informal, rarely structured way.

  • Patent number: 11074994
    Abstract: Systems and methods for conducting automated synthetic interactions with a user, such as a patient at home following a medical procedure. A digital coach having a processor and memory initiates a session with a user's interactive device, and presents pre-recorded scripts as video and/or audio through the interactive device. The user's responses are received by the digital coach through the interactive device. Peripheral devices, such as medical devices, may be used by the user or controlled by the digital coach to obtain data measurements regarding the physiological condition of the user. The processor of the digital coach analyzes the data from the user responses and devices, and semantically interprets the responses and data to determine the next action and script to present the user in the session. The digital coach provides a conversational, dynamic, adaptive session with a user based on semantically expanded interpretations of data by the processor.

  • Patent number: 11045255
    Abstract: Patient treatment may be optimized using Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) based state simulation and Reinforcement learning (RL) techniques to simulate future states and actions. A RNN state simulator and a RL action generator may be trained using patient data such as historical states and actions. The RL action generator may be optimized by applying the RNN state simulator to simulating future states and applying the RL action generator to generate recommended actions based on the simulated future states. This process may be iteratively performed until a computational convergence is reached by the RL action generator which may indicate that the RL action generator has been optimized. A patient state may be fed into the optimized RL action generator to generate an optimal recommended treatment action.

  • Patent number: 11037657
    Abstract: A mechanism is provided to implement a health risk assessment system for adaptively and dynamically generating a personalized questionnaire for health risk assessment of a patient. A set of responses are analyzed and a patient is grouped to an initial group that matches a similar patient group. Utilizing the initial group, an initial question is selected to present to the patient. Responsive to receiving a current response to the initial question, the current response is analyzed, the patient is grouped to a next group, and a next question is identified and presented to the patient. The process continues until a last group is reached where a scoring of possible health risks associated with the patient is performed based on each response provided by the patient and identified groupings. A final possible health risk or ranked set of possible health risks is then presented based on the scoring.
