Patent application number | Description | Published |
20090005728 | THERAPY DELIVERY SYSTEM HAVING AN OPEN ARCHITECTURE AND A METHOD THEREOF - A therapy delivery system having an open architecture and method of providing thereof are disclosed. The present invention provides a therapy dosage module having a control algorithm that can be replaced with a predefined or independently defined control algorithm. The tools necessary to create and test such control algorithms in the therapy dosage module in a simulated environment before implementing it in a live therapy system are also disclosed. | 01-01-2009 |
20090006061 | SYSTEM FOR DEVELOPING PATIENT SPECIFIC THERAPIES BASED ON DYNAMIC MODELING OF PATIENT PHYSIOLOGY AND METHOD THEREOF - A system for developing patient-specific therapies based on dynamic modeling of patient-specific physiology and method thereof are disclosed. The system includes software modules configured to provide access via a computer to one or more data collection protocols defining at least a type of patient-specific data to be collected and a manner in which the patient-specific data is to be collected, and to information from which one or more patient-specific models, configured to simulate one or more aspects of the patient's physiology, is developed. Another software module of the system is configured to provide access via the computer to one or more software tools that apply patient-specific data, collected according to the one or more data collection protocols, to the one or more patient specific models to determine therefrom one or more patient-specific therapies. | 01-01-2009 |
20090006129 | Medical Diagnosis, Therapy, And Prognosis System For Invoked Events And Methods Thereof - A diagnosis, therapy and prognosis system (DTPS) and method thereof to help either the healthcare provider or the patient in diagnosing, treating and interpreting data are disclosed. The apparatus provides data collection based on protocols, and mechanism for testing data integrity and accuracy. The data is then driven through an analysis engine to characterize in a quantitative sense the metabolic state of the patient's body. The characterization is then used in diagnosing the patient, determining therapy, evaluating algorithm strategies and offering prognosis of potential use case scenarios. | 01-01-2009 |
20090006133 | PATIENT INFORMATION INPUT INTERFACE FOR A THERAPY SYSTEM - A patient interface for a therapy system allows a patient to input information that characterizes at least one patient event or condition and from which therapy information can be determined. The patient interface may illustratively be formed by developing a patient model that is configured to simulate the patient's physiological response to the at least one patient event or condition, collecting patient-specific information over time that relates to actual occurrences of the at least one patient event or condition, and defining a graphical interface, based on the patient model and on the collected patient-specific information, that maps input from the patient of the information that characterizes the at least one patient event or condition to corresponding therapy information. | 01-01-2009 |
20090326357 | Method, system, and computer program product for calculating daily weighted averages of glucose measurements (or derived quantities) with time-based weights - A method and system for calculating daily weighted averages of glucose measurements (or derived quantities) with time-based weights are disclosed. The present invention computes an average daily glucose value using the time based weights based on only consecutive glucose measurements in the plurality of glucose measurements with acceptable time intervals that do not exceed a predefined maximum time interval. The invention further relates to a computer program for implementing the method for calculating daily weighted averages of spot monitoring glucose measurements (or derived quantities) with the time-based weights. | 12-31-2009 |
20100330598 | METHOD, SYSTEM, AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT FOR PROVIDING BOTH AN ESTIMATED TRUE MEAN BLOOD GLUCOSE VALUE AND ESTIMATED GLYCATED HEMOGLOBIN (HbA1C) VALUE FROM STRUCTURED SPOT MEASUREMENTS OF BLOOD GLUCOSE - A method and system for providing both an estimated true mean blood glucose value and estimated glycated hemoglobin (HbA1C) value from spot blood glucose (bG) measurements are disclosed. The bG measurements and associated context of the bG measurement are collected at daily times specified by a structured sampling schema, and the collected bG measurements are weighted based on the associated context. The estimated true mean bG value and the estimate HbA1C value are then determined from the weighted measurements of the collected bG measurements. A computer program for implementing the method for providing both an estimated true mean blood glucose value and estimated glycated hemoglobin (HbA1C) value from spot blood glucose (bG) measurements is also disclosed. | 12-30-2010 |
20100331627 | ADHERENCE INDICATION TOOL FOR CHRONIC DISEASE MANAGEMENT AND METHOD THEREOF - An adherence indication tool for chronic disease self-management and method thereof for measuring adherence or compliance to following or achieving prescribed therapy steps to achieve stated target goals for improved chronic disease self-management are disclosed. | 12-30-2010 |
20120116347 | THERAPY DELIVERY SYSTEM HAVING AN OPEN ARCHITECTURE AND A METHOD THEREOF - A therapy delivery system having an open architecture and method of providing thereof are disclosed. The present invention provides a therapy dosage module having a control algorithm that can be replaced with a predefined or independently defined control algorithm. The tools necessary to create and test such control algorithms in the therapy dosage module in a simulated environment before implementing it in a live therapy system are also disclosed. | 05-10-2012 |
20120197536 | METHOD, SYSTEM, AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT FOR CALCULATING DAILY WEIGHTED AVERAGES OF GLUCOSE MEASUREMENTS (OR DERIVED QUANTITIES) WITH TIME-BASED WEIGHTS - A method and system for calculating daily weighted averages of glucose measurements (or derived quantities) with time-based weights are disclosed. The present invention computes an average daily glucose value using the time based weights based on only consecutive glucose measurements in the plurality of glucose measurements with acceptable time intervals that do not exceed a predefined maximum time interval. The invention further relates to a computer program for implementing the method for calculating daily weighted averages of spot monitoring glucose measurements (or derived quantities) with the time-based weights. | 08-02-2012 |
