  • Publication number: 20230140929
    Abstract: Techniques for administering a care plan for a patient. A monitoring device is selected, at a care plan management system based on a care plan, to use in administering the care plan. The care plan specifies biometric data to monitor for a patient. The monitoring device is configured to collect the biometric data, based on the care plan. The biometric data collected using the monitoring device is received at the care plan management system. The biometric data includes a first event initially classified as a first type of event using the monitoring device. The first event is selected for reclassification, based on the initial classification, and in response the first event is reclassified as a second type of event using the care plan management system. The patient is treated based on the care plan and the reclassified first event.

  • Patent number: 11501879
    Abstract: Techniques for voice control of a patient care device are described. A patient care device receives an audio request from a user. The patient care device records the audio request. The patient care device transmits the audio request over a communication network to a speech recognition service, and in response receives, from the speech recognition service, a textual representation of the audio request. The patient care device matches the textual representation, using the computer processor, to a first command in a vocabulary of available commands, and in response performs the first command.

  • Patent number: 11301809
    Abstract: Techniques for administering a care plan. Biometric data collected by a monitoring device is received at a care plan management system using a communication network. The biometric data includes a first event classified by a remote device as a first type of event. A relative processing priority for the first event is determined, at the care plan management system, based on the first type. The first event is processed, at the care plan management system, based on the relative processing priority. The processing includes re-classifying the first event as a second type of event. The re-classification is more computationally intensive than the classification by the remote device. At least one treatment task specified in the care plan is initiated, using a computer processor, and based on the re-classified first event.

  • Patent number: 11120911
    Abstract: Embodiments presented herein provide a dynamically adaptive care plan. More specifically, embodiments presented herein describe techniques for modifying a care plan assigned to a patient based on data observed from the patient. According to one embodiment of the present disclosure, data corresponding to one or more types of biometric data for the patient is received. One or more reported symptoms for the patient is received. The care plan includes one or more conditions corresponding to the one or more reported symptoms. Upon determining that at least one of the received data satisfy at least one of the biometric thresholds and the one or more reported symptoms satisfy at least one of the conditions, an event rule for modifying the care plan is identified. The care plan is modified based on the event rule.

  • Publication number: 20200335189
    Abstract: One or more described embodiments relate to techniques for generating a care plan tailored for an individual. A care plan for treatment of one or more medical conditions for a patient is generated based on care protocol templates. The generating includes identifying a first patient task that conflicts with a second patient task, in the care protocol templates. The care protocol templates are parsed to identify a conflict resolution rule, pre-defined in a respective template, and the conflict is resolved by generating a patient task based on the conflict resolution rule and including the patient task in the care plan. The care plan is transmitted to a client device for the patient. The client device is configured to use the care plan to configure one or more sensor devices to collect biometric data as part of the treatment of the one or more medical conditions for the patient.

  • Patent number: 10706485
    Abstract: Embodiments presented herein describe techniques for generating a care plan tailored for an individual. According to one embodiment of the present disclosure, a care platform receives a selection of one or more care protocol templates to assign to a patient. Each care protocol template is associated with a medical condition to be treated. The care platform generates tasks to be performed by the patient, observation metrics specifying types of patient biometrics to monitor, and thresholds associated with each selection. The care platform receives one or more customizations to the tasks, observation metrics, and thresholds and determines whether any of the tasks or the customizations to the tasks conflict with one another. Upon identifying one or more conflicts, the conflicts are resolved based on specified rules associated with each conflicting task. The care plan is generated based on the observation metrics, thresholds, customizations, and resolved tasks.

Embodiments receive a care plan specifying a plurality of assigned tasks for the patient to perform, timing information specifying when each of the plurality of assigned tasks should be performed, and a plurality of observation metrics that each indicate a type of biometric data to monitor. Biometric data corresponding to the plurality of observation metrics is collected using at least one monitoring device. Embodiments receive symptom information specifying one or more reported symptoms experienced by the patient and monitor adherence of the patient to completing the plurality of assigned tasks according to the timing information specified in the care plan. Embodiments further include providing feedback to the patient, based on the collected biometric data, received symptom information and monitored adherence.

  • Publication number: 20190374124
    Abstract: Bridge connectors for coupling a control device to a biometric sensor are disclosed. A bridge connector includes a first data port configured to be removably coupled to the control device and a second data port configured to be removably coupled to the biometric sensor. The bridge connector also includes a flexible planar body, including at least one signal pathway interconnecting the first data port to the second data port. The first and second data ports are configured to transmit biometric data from the biometric sensor to the control device, using the at least one signal pathway. Further, the bridge connector is configured to provide a voltage to the biometric sensor from a power source in the control device, or the biometric sensor is configured to transmit at least some of the biometric data to the control device in a passive manner without consuming power from the power source.

  • Patent number: 10398335
    Abstract: Bridge connectors employing flexible planar bodies having signal pathways coupling control devices with biometric sensors are disclosed. Sensors are placed in contact with a patient to detect a health condition and generate an output signal based on the health condition. A control device is linked to the sensors to receive the output signal for collection, analysis, storage, display, and/or subsequent transfer. A bridge connector includes a planar body with predetermined flexibility and signal pathways extending between data ports. By removably coupling the bridge connector to the control device and the sensors secured to the patient, the control device may be physically supported by the patient with minimal discomfort and low-cost biometric sensors may be used. In this manner, sensor replacement costs are reduced and the useful lives of the sensors can be maximized as the designed flexibility of the bridge connector facilitates removable coupling with the biometric sensors.
