Asthma status scoring method and system with confidence ratings
First Claim
1. An assessment system for assessing the asthma status of a patient, comprising:
- a data processing system;
an environmental data capture system communicatively coupled with the data processing system, wherein the environmental data capture system is configured to capture environmental sensor data and generate sensor-based environmental data in a form usable by the data processing system based at least in part on the environmental sensor data; and
an asthma data output system communicatively coupled with the data processing system, wherein the data processing system is configured to receive the sensor-based environmental data from the environmental data capture system, generate an asthma status score and a confidence rating for the asthma status score based at least in part on sensor-based environmental data and output the asthma status score and the confidence rating to the asthma data output system, wherein the confidence rating is generated based on at least one of a comparison of an actual number of parameters used to generate the asthma status score with a predefined number of parameters or a comparison of an actual change rate for the asthma status score with a predefined change rate, and wherein the asthma data output system is configured to display the asthma status score and the confidence rating.

Abstract
A method and system for assessing the health status of a patient, such as the asthma status of a patient, provides an asthma status score and a confidence rating indicative of the score'"'"'s reliability using continuous real-time data. In some embodiments, the assessment comprises a multidimensional analysis in which asthma status scores and respective confidence ratings are generated for multiple individual asthma health dimensions as well as a summary asthma health dimension indicative of overall asthma health. In some embodiments, the individual dimensions include an environmental trigger dimension based on sensor-based environmental data, a physiological burden dimension based on sensor-based physiological data, a medication adherence dimension based on patient diary data and a perceived symptom dimension based on patient diary data.
