  • Publication number: 20240161894
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and instrumentalities may be configured for managing infant health. An example system may communicate with a user device to collect and assess infant health metrics and parental usage. The system may configure a health trajectory for the infant by analyzing parental compliance and aggregate health data for generating an intervention data set. Interventions may be sent to the user device based on projected benefits and encouraging parental action. Health metrics may modify the health trajectory and interventions based on the infant's development and parental engagement. The system may monitor user compliance such that interventions are presented to maximize completion likelihood.

  • Publication number: 20190083003
    Abstract: A health care system for a caregiver to monitor and manage sleep metric, patterns and quality for an infant, including: a) a base station in communication with a network, b) one or more sensors in communication with the base station, c) a caregiver communication device in communication with the network; and d) a remote server and associated data store in communication with the network. The remote server is operative to: 1) access information from the information store indicating caregiver typing traits, 2) receive information from the sensors indicating a sleep quality for the infant, 3) receive information from the caregiver communication device indicating a caregiver perception of sleep quality for the infant, 4) recommend at least one caregiver action as a function of the caregiver typing traits, the sleep quality measures and the caregiver perception of the sleep quality; and 5) transmit the recommended action to the caregiver communication device.
