Abstract: A method, including receiving a data source selection from a user or software application, the data source including medical information of a plurality of patients, receiving, from the user or software application, a data pattern that is related to a concept to be explored in the data source, querying the data source to find information that approximately matches the data pattern; and receiving the information from the data source, wherein the information includes unstructured data, assigning a classification to individual parts of the information based on the part's relationship to the data pattern, and outputting the classified information to the user or software application.

Abstract: A task management system uses patient tags (e.g., wireless RFID, Infrared tracking, GPS etc.) for patient location tracking, together with an integrated workflow system to automatically, track patient location how long they have been there and how many patients are at the same location (e.g., waiting room) and manages waiting time and an overall waiting queue, supporting automated adjustment of healthcare staffing, patient flows, and team coordination. A task management system for use in providing healthcare to a patient includes a patient tracking processor and a workflow processor. The patient tracking processor automatically acquires data derived by wireless communication from patient attached tag devices for use in identifying a location of multiple patients in a healthcare enterprise and identifying a first number of patients at a particular location and a second number of patients awaiting receiving a particular type of treatment.
