Systems and methods for monitoring a patient's neurological disease state
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method of estimating a neurological disease state of a patient, the method comprising:
- sensing at least one motion parameter from the patient using an accelerometer communicating with the patient, the accelerometer being coupled to a circuit provided in an enclosure;
processing the at least one motion parameter using a disease state processor, the disease state processor primarily using the at least one motion parameter to estimate the patient'"'"'s neurological disease state;
communicating a first output to the patient using a patient interface module external to the patient, the first output being indicative of a comparison of the estimated neurological disease state and a reference target disease state;
storing the estimated neurological disease state in a memory; and
communicating a second output to a supervisory module device separate from the patient interface module.

Abstract
The present invention provides a system for providing neurological disease state information to a patient. The system comprises one or more sensors that sense at least one signal that comprise feature(s) that are indicative of a neurological disease state. A signal processing assembly is in communication with the one or more sensors and processes the at least one signal to estimate the neurological disease state. A patient interface module is in communication with the signal processing assembly and communicates with a patient an output that is indicative of the patient'"'"'s estimated neurological disease state.
