System for maintenance and management of health
First Claim
1. A system for maintenance and management of health for large numbers of individual patients, the system comprising:
- (a) a condition monitoring device, having alarm signals, that measures physiological data on a patient, and transmits, enters, and stores the data as event information of the patient into a Condition Log;
(b) a supervision device that assesses the alarm signals and event information, wherein the supervision device transmits the alarm signals and event information to caregivers, allowing the caregivers to initiate a corrective action on the patient and to request a report about the corrective action and its results, the report being entered and stored into a Shift Log;
(c) an evaluating device, that evaluates problems and patterns of measurements by comparing the problems and patterns with accumulated information in a knowledge database, wherein the evaluating device thereafter selects the appropriate corrective action to be recommended to the caregivers, requests a report of the caregivers about the corrective action and its results, and enters the report into the knowledge database, whereby the knowledge database accumulates and enlarges, and;
(d) a communication system that connects to a system for transmitting alarms and recommendations to a supervisor, whereby the supervisor corrects and releases the alarms and recommendations, and the alarms and recommendations are transmitted further to the caregivers for performing a recommended action.

Abstract
The present invention relates to a Mobile Tele-Medical Maintenance system (MTMM system) that applies different IT methods to perform different functions for the tele-medical maintenance of large numbers of individuals. The MTMM system includes a system kernel residing on web servers, linked to a large number of peripheral units on the individuals. The kernel contains a collection of all the “Private Medical Web Sites” and “Personal Health Plans” of the individuals. The MTMM system periphery includes walk-in care offices and intelligent physiological sensors that can communicate directly with the kernel'"'"'s programs via the Internet or similar communication networks, preferably using the user'"'"'s phone and its traditional interfaces, message display plus message voice, and push-button plus voice input. The system kernel controls the actuators directly in the periphery and uses message display and message voice output of the telephone to interact with the individual.
