Patent Images
1. A method for using a data management system to automatically diagnose patient health comprising the steps of:
- a. populating a data management module adapted to store and archive data with patient population data;
b. sensing data from a patient using a medical device;
c. delivering the patient data from the medical device to the data management module;
d. retrieving data from the data management module for analysis;
e. analyzing the retrieved data using a neural network comprising clinically derived algorithms reflective of a standard of medical care to provide an initial evaluation of probable patient health based on the analyzed data; and
f. communicating the sensed data, the analyzed data and the patient health evaluation.
