Abstract
Description
field of invention
[0001] The present invention relates to devices, systems and methods for detecting disease-related and / or therapy-related fatigue in humans. Background of the invention
[0002] Various types of diseases such as cancer, chronic inflammatory conditions (e.g. rheumatoid arthritis, inflammatory multiple sclerosis) and non-inflammatory conditions such as Parkinson's disease and / or treatment of such diseases can cause Disease-related fatigue. Disease-related fatigue affects the patient's condition (both physical and mental), and thus affects subsequent disease development and subsequent treatment.
[0003] Cancer-related fatigue (CRF) is a highly prevalent and debilitating symptom that most cancer patients experience during radiation / chemotherapy treatment and often for a considerable period thereafter. CRF affects patients' physical, mental and emotional capabilities, and thus has a major impact on their quality of life. CRF is described as a subjective fee...

Embodiment Construction
[0040] figure 1 A schematic diagram showing a first embodiment of a system 1 and a device 2 for detecting disease-related and / or therapy-related fatigue in humans according to the invention. In addition to the device 2, the system 1 comprises a white blood cell counter 3 for counting the person's white blood cells, a hemoglobin level sensor 4 for determining the person's hemoglobin level and a cortisol level sensor 5 for measuring the person's cortisol level. Based on the data obtained from the white blood cell counter 3, the hemoglobin level sensor 4 and the cortisol level sensor 5, the device detects whether the person suffers from disease-related and / or therapy-related fatigue, or is in an early stage of such fatigue. Additionally, the person's fatigue level can be monitored over time.
[0041] The device 2 comprises an input unit 20 for obtaining white blood cell count data related to a person's white blood cell count, hemoglobin level data related to a person's hemoglobi...
