POINT-OF-CARE ENACTIVE MEDICAL SYSTEM AND METHOD
First Claim
1. A point-of-care enactive medical system, comprising:
- an acquisition device to obtain medical data on a first person,said acquisition device for operation by a second person with respect to providing care for said first person;
an enactive interface for operating said acquisition device by said second person;
a computer including a processor and a memory,said computer for receiving, storing, and processing said medical data generated by said acquisition device,said memory storing a knowledgebase having a plurality of feature-sets,each of said feature-sets having two or more features;
an efferent component which accesses said medical data and said knowledgebase and executes a process in said processor, whereinsaid medical data is transformed to transformed data,at least one feature of said feature-sets is selected and populated from said knowledgebase with at least one of said transformed data, andknowledge of one or more physiological conditions represented by one or more of said feature-sets having said feature populated by said transformed data is generated; and
an afferent component which executes in said processor to communicate said knowledge regarding said one or more physiological conditions to said second person for further operation of said acquisition device.

Abstract
A diagnostic enactive medical system that guides a user during acquisition and analyses of medical data for diagnosis and risk assessment. A method of using data-centric analysis and interpretation of acquired medical data in conjunction with metadata management in the point-of-care enactive medical system transforms raw medical data to generate feature-sets of a small number of closely related features associated with a particular medical or physiological state. Medical data from the point-of-care enactive medical system converges onto one or more feature-sets, interacts with the user to provide commentary or request additional information or data concerning a patient. Using an expert knowledgebase, the point-of-care enactive medical system learns from the medical data and then provides the user of tasks suitable for dynamic construction of point-of-care enactive medical knowledge, diagnoses, and recommendations for risk and/or treatment.

4. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium with an executable program stored thereon,
said program evaluating medical data of a first person obtained with an acquisition device operated by a second person, said medium loadable on a computer memory, said program instructs a computer processor to perform steps, said memory storing said medical data of said first person and a knowledgebase having feature-sets, said computer processor under control of said program providing instruction to an enactive interface for operation of said acquisition device by said second person, said steps comprising: -
an efferent component step which accesses said medical data and said knowledgebase from said memory and executes a process in said computer processor, said process including transforming said medical data to transformed data, selecting and populating a feature of said feature-sets obtained from said knowledgebase with at least one of said transformed data, and generating knowledge of one or more physiological conditions represented by one or more of said feature-sets having said feature populated by said transformed data; and an afferent component step which executes in said computer processor to communicate said generated knowledge of said one or more physiological conditions to said enactive interface for said second person regarding operation of said acquisition device. - View Dependent Claims (5)

6. A method for obtaining knowledge regarding one or more physiological conditions about a first person, said method comprising:
-
operating an acquisition device by a second person; obtaining medical data of said first person from said acquisition device; inputting said medical data from said acquisition device to a computer; said computer receiving, storing and processing said medical data; said computer having a processor and a memory, accessing a knowledgebase having feature-sets in said memory; executing a program loaded on said processor, said program comprising an efferent component which accesses said medical data and said knowledgebase in said memory and executes a process in said processor to transform said medical data to transformed data, said process selecting and populating a feature of one or more of said feature-sets obtained from said knowledgebase with at least one of said transformed data and further using said knowledgebase to generate a knowledge of one or more physiological conditions represented by one or more of said feature-sets having said feature populated by said transformed data; said program further comprising an afferent component which executes in said processor to communicate said knowledge of said one or more physiological conditions to said enactive interface for further operation of said acquisition device by said second person; further operation of said acquisition device by said second person; and obtaining further medical data of said first person from said acquisition device. - View Dependent Claims (7)
