SYSTEM FOR CLINICAL WORKFLOW ENHANCEMENTS USING A BUSINESS RULES ENGINE THAT COLLATES HETEROGENEOUS HEALTHCARE DATA, AND A METHOD THEREOF
First Claim
1. A system comprising:
- a plurality of physiological sensors for collecting medical data;
an on-site gateway communicating with the sensors;
a server for receiving physiological data recorded by the sensors from the gateway;
a database comprising a patient medical record, a prescribed protocol, and a rule set describing the prescribed protocol; and
a medical rule evaluator for accessing the rule set and applying the rule set to the physiological data to determine compliance with the prescribed protocol;
wherein the medical rule evaluator generates an alert if physiological data does not comply with the rule set.

Abstract
A system for data integration and collation of medical data is described. The system includes a plurality of data sources and a plurality of connectors, wherein the data sources include data from a physiological sensor and a caregiver data store, a connector and source are paired, and each paired connector converts source data between a first format and a second format different from the first format. The system further includes a rules engine and a medical rule associated with a medical protocol and a core transaction processing system configured to apply the medical rule to the data in the second format to implement a compliance rules check of the medical protocol. Also described is a system for monitoring post-procedure complications using a plurality of physiological sensors for collecting medical data; an on-site gateway communicating with the sensors; a server for receiving physiological data recorded by the sensors from the gateway; a database comprising a patient medical record, a prescribed protocol, and a rule set describing the prescribed protocol; and a medical rule evaluator for accessing the rule set and applying the rule set to the physiological data to determine compliance with the prescribed protocol.
