Abstract

Certain embodiments of the present invention provide a health data tracker system including a schedule component, a voice driven component, a data processor component, and a health data storage component. The schedule component is adapted to prompt a patient to input health data. The voice driven component is adapted to receive the health data from the patient. The data processor component is adapted to process the health data. The health data storage component is adapted to store the health data.

Claims

1. A health data tracker system, the system comprising:

a schedule component adapted to prompt a patient to input health data;

a voice driven component adapted to receive the health data from the patient;

a data processor component adapted to process the health data; and

a health data storage component adapted to store the health data.

2. The system of claim 1, wherein the health data storage component is adapted to transmit the health data to a health data storage system.

3. The system of claim 2, wherein the health data storage component is adapted to store patient data, and wherein the health data storage component is further adapted to transmit the patient data to the health data storage system.

4. The system of claim 1, further comprising an alert component adapted to alert the patient based at least in part on a comparison of the health data to at least one health data parameter.

5. The system of claim 4, wherein the alert component is adapted to transmit an alert to a health data storage system based at least in part on the comparison of the health data to the at least one health data parameter.

6. The system of claim 1, wherein the received health data is audio health data.

7. The system of claim 1, wherein the received health data is image health data.

8. The system of claim 1, wherein the health data storage component is adapted to receive scheduled prompts from a health data storage system, and wherein the schedule component is adapted to retrieve the scheduled prompts from the health data storage component.

9. A health data tracking method, the method comprising:

prompting a patient to input health data;

receiving the health data in response to voice commands of the patient;

processing the health data; and

storing the health data.

10. The method of claim 9, further comprising transmitting the stored health data to a health data storage system.

11. The method of claim 9, further comprising alerting the patient based at least in part on a comparison of the stored health data to at least one health data parameter.

12. The method of claim 11, further comprising setting the at least one health data parameter.

13. The method of claim 9, further comprising alerting a healthcare practitioner based at least in part on a comparison of the stored health data to at least one health data parameter.

14. The method of claim 9, further comprising scheduling a prompt for the health data.

15. The method of claim 9, further comprising displaying the health data.

16. The method of claim 9, wherein the received health data is audio health data.

17. The method of claim 16, wherein the processing step further comprises converting the received health data to text health data.

18. The method of claim 9, wherein the received health data is image health data.

19. A health data tracker system, the system comprising:

a voice driven component adapted to receive health data from a patient;

a data processor component adapted to process the health data;

a health data storage component adapted to store the health data; and

an alert component adapted to alert the patient based at least in part on a comparison of the health data to at least one health data parameter.

20. The system of claim 19, wherein the health data storage component is adapted to transmit the health data to a health data storage system.
