  • Publication number: 20220051803
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a system and associated methods for determining one or more scores representative of a pre- or post-transplant recipient's activities and behaviors for self-care. The system may determine one or more scores from a plurality of activities and behaviors. The pre- or post-transplant recipient's input(s) and/or measurement information may be related to one or more metrics, and the score(s) may be determined relative to one or more associated metric targets. The score(s) may represent the pre- or post-transplant recipient's self-care status. The importance of a given metric to a pre- or post-transplant recipient's progress for self-care may vary depending on one or more factors such as the pre- or post-transplant recipient's health, age, gender, medical history, or the like, and one or more metric weights may be used to change the impact a metric has on the pre- or post-transplant recipient's score(s).
