Abstract

A computerized system for monitoring and maintaining the health of a person comprising the steps of (a) obtaining parameter data from the patient and inputting the parameter data into a computer database; (b) analyzing the parameter data using a computerized statistical modeling technique module and a computerized adaptive expert system shell for the prediction of a health event in the lifetime of the patient; (c) using the analyzed data to developed a health maintenance schedule for the patient, and (d) embedding and/or linking such data onto a microprocessor powered smart card.

Claims

1. A computerized system for monitoring and maintaining the health of a patient comprising the steps of:

a. obtaining parameter data from the patient and inputting the parameter data into a computer database;

b. analyzing the parameter data using a computerized statistical modeling technique module and a computerized adaptive expert system shell for the prediction of a health event in the lifetime of the patient; and

c. using the analyzed data to develop a health maintenance schedule for the patient.

2. A computerized system for monitoring and maintaining the health of a patient comprising the steps of:

a. obtaining parameter data from the patient pertaining to the status of at least one health factor of the patient and inputting the parameter data into a computer database;

b. analyzing the parameter data using a computerized statistical modeling technique module to develop a health maintenance schedule for the patient;

c. analyzing the parameter data using a computerized adaptive expert system shell for the prediction of a health event in the lifetime of the patient; and

d. providing the analyzed data to a user to implement a health maintenance and monitoring schedule for the patient.

3. A computerized system for monitoring and maintaining the health of a patient comprising the steps of:

a. obtaining parameter data from the unit and inputting the parameter data into a computer database;

b. analyzing the parameter data using a computerized statistical modeling technique module and a computerized adaptive expert system shell for the prediction of a health event in the lifetime of the patient;

c. using the analyzed data to developed a first health maintenance schedule for the patient; and

d. providing the analyzed data to a user to implement a second health maintenance and monitoring schedule for the patient.

4. A computerized system for monitoring and maintaining the health of a patient comprising the steps of:

a. obtaining parameter data from the unit and inputting the parameter data into a computer database;

b. analyzing the parameter data using a computerized statistical modeling technique module and a computerized adaptive expert system shell for the prediction of a health event in the lifetime of the patient;

c. using the analyzed data to develop a first health maintenance schedule for the patient;

d. providing the analyzed data to a user to implement a second health maintenance and monitoring schedule for the patient; and

e. allowing the user to alter the parameter data to create an alternate hypothetical health maintenance and monitoring schedule for the patient.

5. A computerized system for monitoring and maintaining the health of a patient comprising:

a. a first means comprising a smart card having a microchip with memory for storing parameter data about the patient;

b. a second means comprising a smart card reader for receiving the parameter data about the patient from the first means; and

c. a third means comprising a computer for analyzing the parameter data using a computerized statistical modeling technique module and a computerized adaptive expert system shell for the prediction of a health event in the lifetime of the patient,

wherein the analyzed data is used to develop a health maintenance schedule for the patient and to allow a user to implement a health maintenance and monitoring schedule for the patient.
