Health monitoring system implementing medical diagnosis
First Claim
1. Method of health monitoring implementing a medical diagnosis established by a medically-qualified person concerning a remotely-monitored patient, in particular at his home, and monitored via a communications network, charaterized in that:
- The medically-qualified person associates medical data with health actions in a server via monitoring rules, The server programs a distant terminal, located near the patient in such a way that the distant terminal implements an automatism applying the monitoring rules to the medical data provided to the terminal by at least one sensor associated with the patient and/or by a man-machine interface of the distant terminal and/or by a man-machine interface of a networked station and/or by the network.

Abstract
The invention relates to a health surveillance system comprising a medical diagnosis which is made by a medically-qualified person (11) in relation to a patient who is being monitored remotely, e.g. at home, via a communication network. The invention is characterised in that the medically-qualified person (11) links medical data (2) to health actions (3) in a server (1) using surveillance rules. The invention is further characterised in that the server (1) programs a remote terminal (9) which is located close to the patient, such that the remote terminal (9) uses an automatism (5) which applies the surveillance rules to the medical data supplied to the terminal by at least one sensor (8) which is associated with the patient and/or by a man/machine interface of the remote terminal (13) and/or by a man/machine interface of a network station (12) and/or by the network (7).

18. Health monitoring system implementing the medical diagnosis;
- said system making it possible for users, in particular doctors, to remotely monitor patients, in particular patients maintained in the home;
said system including;
a data server connected to a communications network, in particular of the Internet type, a man-machine interface, in particular installed in computing equipment, connected to said data server via said communications network;
said man-machine interface being implemented by the users to;
select and/or input, in said data server, medical data, in particular of the “
vomiting”
type,input and index health actions, in particular of the “
hospitalisation”
type, corresponding to said medical data,configure, using said selected medical data, the monitoring rules, presented in particular in the form of SQL queries of the “
if symptoms=vomiting and temperature >
38.5°
C., observation period=24 h health action=check urine”
type;
said monitoring rules being recorded and indexed with said health actions in said data server.said man-machine interface being furthermore implemented by said users to;
input and send alert protocols to said data server, in particular information relative to the contact information of the person to inform in the event that a realised health action would be different from the corresponding monitoring rule;
said system furthermore including;
means of analysis destined to analyse the compatibility of said protocols thus sent, in particular the compatibility over time between the new monitoring rules and the former monitoring rules. said system furthermore including;
a distant terminal, located with said patients, in particular with said patients that are maintained in the home;
said distant terminal being connected to sensors, in particular to medical measuring devices, providing medical data to said distant terminal, and/or said distant terminal receiving said medical data from said users and/or said patients via a man-machine interface of said distant terminal;
said system furthermore including means of programming in order to program automatisms in said distant terminal, from said data server via said communications network;
said automatisms being programmed using said medical data and said health actions indexed in said data server;
said distant terminal including means for activating said automatisms thus programmed in order to;
apply, periodically, said monitoring rules to said medical data provided to said distant terminal by generating health actions to be executed, check the execution, by said users, of said health actions, generate alerts in the event said health actions are not executed by said users;
in a way that the system thus makes it possible to compile a personalised diagnosis base for each patient and to generate the triggering of appropriate alerts.
- said system making it possible for users, in particular doctors, to remotely monitor patients, in particular patients maintained in the home;
