  • Patent number: 11935634
    Abstract: A system for predicting and summarizing medical events from electronic health records includes a computer memory storing aggregated electronic health records from a multitude of patients of diverse age, health conditions, and demographics including medications, laboratory values, diagnoses, vital signs, and medical notes. The aggregated electronic health records are converted into a single standardized data structure format and ordered arrangement per patient, e.g., into a chronological order. A computer (or computer system) executes one or more deep learning models trained on the aggregated health records to predict one or more future clinical events and summarize pertinent past medical events related to the predicted events on an input electronic health record of a patient having the standardized data structure format and ordered into a chronological order.

  • Publication number: 20240085858
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a smart watch, including a housing with a mounting cavity, a top cover that covers the housing, a movement in the mounting cavity, a watch dial for displaying time, a light emitting module, a shake sensing module, a tap sensing module, and an audio player. The light emitting module is configured to be turned on when the shake sensing module senses that the smart watch is shaken and turned off when the tap sensing module senses that the smart watch is tapped. The audio player is configured to be started when the smart watch is tapped or shaken. According to the present invention, when needing to turn on the light emitting module, a user only needs to shake the smart watch worn on his/her wrist, and when needing to turn off the light emitting module, the user only needs to tap the smart watch with his/her hand. Compared with the way of turning on the light emitting module by pressing a physical button, the smart watch is simpler and more convenient in operation.
