Optimization of timing for data collection and analysis in advanced patient management system
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A patient device, comprising:
- a memory including instructions, which when executed by a processor, cause the processor to;
identify a time period during which the patient device is forecasted to be able to communicate with an interrogator/transceiver unit (ITU) based on a history of availability; and
determine a data update time, the data update time representing when the patient device updates patient data by updating stored physiological measurements of the patient data in a memory of the patient device, and the data update time being before the time period during which the patient device is forecasted to be able to communicate with the ITU.

Abstract
Advanced patient management systems include a unit for collecting data from a device associated with a patient, and a host in communication with the unit, the host identifying a time for the device to update data on the device. The system can identify a time for the device to update data associated with the device by developing a histogram of the availability of the device for interrogation. The system can also optimize processing loads for the system by developing a histogram of the time at which the caregiver is most likely to access the system to review the collected and processed data. Methods for optimizing device data update and processing times are also included.

17. A non-transitory machine readable medium comprising instructions, which when executed by a patient device, cause the patient device to:
-
identify a time period during which the patient device is forecasted to be able to communicate with an interrogator/transceiver unit (ITU) based on a history of availability; and determine a data update time, the data update time representing when the patient device updates patient data by updating stored physiological measurements of the patient data in a memory of the patient device, and the data update time being before the time period during which the patient device is forecasted to be able to communicate with the ITU. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20)
