  • Patent number: 11395634
    Abstract: Novel tools and techniques are provided for assessing, predicting and/or estimating a physiological state of a patient, based on variance of the patient's compensatory reserve index (“CRI”) before, during, and/or after a physical perturbation. In some embodiments, the system might receive a first set of physiological data from one or more sensors at a first time relative to a physical perturbation of the patient, and might calculate a first set of CRI values of the patient. The system might receive a second set of physiological data at a second time relative to the physical perturbation, calculate a second set of CRI values, analyze the two sets of CRI values against a pre-existing model, estimate a physiological state (e.g., hydration, etc.) of the patient, and display the estimate on a display device. The system might also control an infusion device to infuse fluids into the patient based on estimated hydration state.

  • Patent number: 11382571
    Abstract: Tools and techniques for estimating and/or predicting a patient's current and/or future blood pressure. In some cases, the tools will analyze physiological data captured from the patient against a model of blood pressure values to estimate/predict the patient's blood pressure value. In particular cases, derived parameters, such as a patient's compensatory reserve index (“CRI”) can be analyzed against such models, while in other cases, data captured from sensors can be directly analyzed against such models.

  • Patent number: 10226194
    Abstract: Tools and techniques for the rapid, continuous, invasive and/or noninvasive measurement, estimation, and/or prediction of a patient's physiological state. In an aspect, some tools and techniques can estimate predict the onset of conditions intracranial pressure, an amount of blood volume loss, cardiovascular collapse, and/or dehydration. Some tools can recommend (and, in some cases, administer) a therapeutic treatment for the patient's condition. In another aspect, some techniques employ high speed software technology that enables active, long term learning from extremely large, continually changing datasets. In some cases, this technology utilizes feature extraction, state-of-the-art machine learning and/or statistical methods to autonomously build and apply relevant models in real-time.

  • Publication number: 20160162786
    Abstract: Methods and systems are disclosed for autonomously building a predictive model of outcomes. A most-predictive set of signals Sk is identified out of a set of signals s1, s2, . . . , sD for each of one or more outcomes ok. A set of probabilistic predictive models ôk=Mk(Sk) is autonomously learned, where ôk is a prediction of outcome ok derived from the model Mk that uses as inputs values obtained from the set of signals Sk. The step of autonomously learning is repeated incrementally from data that contains examples of values of signals s1, s2, . . . , sD and corresponding outcomes o1, o2, . . . , oK. Various embodiments are also disclosed that apply predictive models to various physiological events and to autonomous robotic navigation.
