System and method for prioritizing multiple health disorders for use in automated patient care
First Claim
1. A system for prioritizing multiple health disorders for use in automated patient care, comprising:
- a comparison module comparing at least one recorded physiological measure from a plurality of monitoring sets to at least one other recorded physiological measure to quantify a change in patient pathophysiological status for equivalent patient information;
an analysis module ordering each patient pathophysiological status change in temporal sequence from least recent to most recent, categorizing a plurality of health disorder candidates using quantifiable pathophysiologies indicative of each health disorder, and identifying the health disorder candidate having the pathophysiology substantially corresponding to the patient pathophysiological status changes which occurred substantially least recently.

Abstract
A system and method for prioritizing multiple health disorders for use in automated patient care is described. A plurality of monitoring sets are retrieved from a database. Each of the monitoring sets include stored measures relating to patient information recorded and derived on a substantially continuous basis. A patient status change is determined by comparing at least one stored measure from each of the monitoring sets to at least one other stored measure with both stored measures relating to the same type of patient information. Each patient status change is ordered in temporal sequence from least recent to most recent. A plurality of health disorder candidates categorized by quantifiable physiological measures of pathophysiologies indicative of each respective health disorder are evaluated and the health disorder candidate with the pathophysiology most closely matching those patient status changes which occurred least recently is identified.
