Embodiment Construction

[0042] figure 1 is a diagram showing an overall schematic view of an embodiment of the present disclosure. The subject 101 is monitored using a respiration sensor 102 . Examples of respiration sensors include abdominal induction straps, chest induction straps, non-contact biomotion sensors, or airflow sensors. The monitored respiratory parameters may include respiratory effort, respiratory motion, tidal volume, or respiratory rate. Optionally, a device 103 for capturing symptoms may also be included. This can be as simple as a journal to write, or it can be as simple as a journal for questions such as "Do you feel out of breath?", "Do you have uncomfortable breathing during sleep?", "Do you feel better or worse than yesterday?", "Do you feel your heart beating faster?" etc. for electronic data capture devices. One example of such an electronic device could be a custom tablet computer, or, alternatively, a cell phone with subjectively responsive sound capture could be used....

Abstract

An apparatus, system, and method for monitoring a person suffering from a chronic medical condition predicts and assesses physiological changes which could affect the care of that subject. Examples of such chronic diseases include (but are not limited to) heart failure, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, asthma, and diabetes. Monitoring includes measurements of respiratory movements, which can then be analyzed for evidence of changes in respiratory rate, or for events such as hypoponeas, apneas and periodic breathing. Monitoring may be augmented by the measurement of nocturnal heart rate in conjunction with respiratory monitoring. Additional physiological measurements can also be taken such as subjective symptom data, blood pressure, blood oxygen levels, and various molecular markers. Embodiments for detection of respiratory patterns and heart rate are disclosed, together with exemplar implementations of decision processes based on these measurements.

Description

[0001] This application is a divisional application of the Chinese patent application 201080012088.9 filed on September 16, 2011 with the title of "Equipment and System for Chronic Disease Monitoring". technical field [0002] The present disclosure relates to a system for monitoring a person with a chronic medical condition to predict and evaluate physiological changes that may affect the care of the subject. Examples of such chronic diseases include, but are not limited to, heart failure, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), asthma, and diabetes. Background technique [0003] To provide background on the limitations of conventional approaches, it is instructive to briefly review current approaches to chronic disease surveillance for three major diseases: heart failure, COPD, and asthma. [0004] Heart failure (HF) is a relatively common and serious clinical condition characterized by the inability of the heart to keep up with the body's oxygen demands. The manage...
