Patent number: 11819313Abstract: Continuous temperature monitors can be used to collect frequent temperature data over large periods of time. A machine learning system trained with collected temperature data can be used to predict future temperature data for patients. Such predictions can be clinically beneficial for disease states in which fever can be fatal, particularly for those fevers having fast onset. For example, patients undergoing chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR-T) therapy may suffer fevers caused by cytokine release syndrome (CRS). Accordingly, a continuous temperature monitor is used to collect temperature data from CAR-T patients with high risk of CRS (or like patients with high fever risk), and the collected temperature data processed by a machine learning system to predict the patient's future temperature profiles. Results of analysis of the predicted temperature profiles may then be provided to the patient and/or clinician.Type: GrantFiled: October 7, 2020Date of Patent: November 21, 2023Assignee: BLUE SPARK INNOVATIONS, LLCInventors: John Gannon, Matt Ream, Frank Feddrix, Ruth Phillips, Adam Perer, Sashi Kolli

Patent number: 11355245Abstract: Embodiments are directed to methodologies, systems and computer program products for generating, for each of a plurality of risk factors in a patient database containing information of a plurality of patients, an index of input values for the risk factor. For each patient P of the plurality of patients, a series of local impact scores is computed for the patient. Computing the series of local impact scores for the patient includes calculating a risk score for the patient with respect to each of the indexed input values for each of the plurality of risk factors. For at least one of the plurality of patients, at least some of the plurality of risk factors are ranked based at least partly on the computed local impact scores for each of the at least some risk factors, and an indication of the ranked risk factors for the at least one patient is provided.Type: GrantFiled: May 3, 2016Date of Patent: June 7, 2022Assignee: INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORPORATIONInventors: Josua Krause, Kenney Ng, Adam Perer

Publication number: 20220068482Abstract: Systems and methods for treating a patient for a medical condition using an interactive treatment pathway interface associated with the medical condition include receiving, through an interface, patient data representing a medical status of a patient. Treatment pathway data representing a sequence of actions for a particular treatment or diagnosis of a medical condition of the patient are retrieved. The interface guides the particular treatment or diagnosis of the medical condition by a traversal of the treatment pathway. A data trace is generated from additional patient data received during the traversal. The represents the instance of the particular treatment or diagnosis of the medical condition of the patient. The data are used to affect the particular treatment or diagnosis for the medical condition to the patient and inform machine learning operations for diagnosis or treatment of the medical condition.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 28, 2020Publication date: March 3, 2022Inventors: John Zimmerman, Adam Perer, Lisa C.

Patent number: 11056218Abstract: Aspects of the present invention include a method, system and computer program product. The method includes identifying, by a processor, a set of global risk factors for a target event using training patients, and providing, by the processor, a disease progression timeline with defined time stamps by aligning longitudinal data of the training patients based on the defined time stamp of risk targets. The method also includes positioning, by the processor, a target patient at one of the defined time stamps on the disease progression timeline, and identifying, by the processor, at least one of the training patients similar to the target patient with the same one of the defined time stamps on the disease progression timeline. The method further includes calculating, by the processor, a time-varying predictive pattern of at least a portion of the global set of risk factors for the target patient along the disease progression timeline.Type: GrantFiled: May 31, 2016Date of Patent: July 6, 2021Assignee: INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORPORATIONInventors: Jianying Hu, Kenney Ng, Adam Perer, Fei Wang, Yajuan Wang

Patent number: 7562085Abstract: Techniques are presented for determining a first set of display elements, each display element associated with a first display characteristic. An interesting element in the first set of display elements is determined. A second set of elements related to the interesting element is determined. A third set of elements based on the first and second set of elements is determined using intersection, union, subtraction addition and other logical operations. A third set of elements not yet added to the element collection is determined. The elements in the third set are associated with a second or ghosted display characteristic. The elements in the third set are inserted within the sorted context of the visualization based on spatial distortion rules which help to preserve spatial memory cues in the visualization of the element collection. The elements may be documents in an information repository, linked contact information, linked information records in a database or other types of information.Type: GrantFiled: May 24, 2005Date of Patent: July 14, 2009Assignee: Palo Alto Research Center IncorporatedInventors: Eric Allan Bier, Adam Perer
