Management method and system for implementation, execution, data collection, and data analysis of a structured collection procedure which runs on a collection device
First Claim
1. A collection device for performing a structured collection procedure, the collection device comprising:
- a processor communicably coupled to at least one memory; and
program instructions which when executed by the processor cause the processor to;
initiate a schedule of events of the structured collection procedure upon one or more entry criterions being met;
segregate the at least one memory into a primary data store and a secondary data store;
write structured patient data collected in accordance to the schedule of events to the secondary data store of the at least one memory;
transform a relevant portion of the structured patient data into an evaluated data object;
generate a data abstraction based at least in part upon the evaluated data object; and
link the primary data store and the secondary data store with the data abstraction;
wherein the at least one memory comprises dynamic and static allocation such that the quantity of the at least one memory can remain fixed, can be increased, and can be decreased; and
the program instructions when executed by the processor cause the processor to;
mark the collection procedure as complete if there are no exceptions;
signify that appropriate data has not been collected if there are the exceptions;
resolve any of the exceptions that have arisen at the time of execution of the collection procedure; and
change the structured collection procedure by switching to a secondary schedule of events that is easier for a patient to perform.

Abstract
A collection device for performing a structured collection procedure may include a processor that executes program instructions communicably coupled to at least one memory. The processor can initiate a schedule of events of the structured collection procedure upon one or more entry criterions being met and segregate the at least one memory into a primary data store and a secondary data store. The processor can write structured patient data collected in accordance to the schedule of events to the secondary data store. The processor can transform a relevant portion of the structured patient data into an evaluated data object. The processor can generate a data abstraction based in part upon the evaluated data object. The processor can link the primary data store and the secondary data store with the data abstraction.

22. A collection device for performing a structured collection procedure, the collection device comprising:
-
a processor communicably coupled to at least one memory wherein the at least one memory comprises dynamic and static allocation such that the quantity of the at least one memory can remain fixed, can be increased, and can be decreased; and program instructions which when executed by the processor cause the processor to; initiate a schedule of events of the structured collection procedure upon one or more entry criterions being met; segregate the at least one memory into a primary data store and a secondary data store; write casual patient data collected by the collection device to the primary data store of the at least one memory; write structured patient data collected in accordance to the schedule of events to the secondary data store of the at least one memory; transform a relevant portion of the structured patient data into an evaluated data object, the evaluated data object is a therapy result, a disease assessment, a therapy assessment, a therapy optimization and/or an adverse event; write automatically the evaluated data object to the secondary data store; apply an error checking algorithm to the primary data store after writing to the primary data store; apply a different error checking algorithm to the secondary data store after writing to the secondary data store; link the primary data store and the secondary data store with the evaluated data object; and mark the collection procedure as complete if there are no exceptions; signify that appropriate data has not been collected if there are the exceptions; resolve any of the exceptions that have arisen at the time of execution of the collection procedure; and change the structured collection procedure by switching to a secondary schedule of events that is easier for a patient to perform.

23. A method for managing data collected from a structured collection procedure comprising:
-
providing at least one memory comprising dynamic and static allocation such that the quantity of the at least one memory can remain fixed, can be increased, and can be decreased; initiating a schedule of events of the structured collection procedure upon one or more entry criterions being met; segregating the at least one memory into a primary data store and a secondary data store; writing casual patient data collected by a collection device to the primary data store of the at least one memory; writing structured patient data collected in accordance to the schedule of events to the secondary data store of the at least one memory; transforming a relevant portion of the structured patient data into an evaluated data object; generating a data abstraction based at least in part upon the evaluated data object; linking the primary data store and the secondary data store with the data abstraction; and if there are no exceptions, marking the collection procedure as complete; if there are the exceptions, signifying that appropriate data has not been collected; resolving any of the exceptions that have arisen at the time of execution of the collection procedure; and changing the structured collection procedure by switching to a secondary schedule of events that is easier for a patient to perform. - View Dependent Claims (24, 25, 26, 27)
