[0018] Specific language is now used to describe the embodiments or examples of the present invention illustrated in the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that it is not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. Any changes or modifications to the described embodiments and any further applications of the principles described in the present invention will be considered as generally thought of by a person skilled in the art associated with the present invention.

[0019] It should be understood that although the terms first, second, third, etc. may be used herein to describe various elements, components, regions, layers, or sections, these elements, components, regions, layers, or sections are not limited by such terms. In fact, these terms are only used to distinguish elements, components, regions, layers, or sections from each other. Therefore, without departing from the teachings of the present invention, the first element, component, region, layer, or section discussed below may be referred to as the second element, component, region, layer, or section.
[0020] The terms used herein are only used to describe specific example embodiments and are not intended to limit the present invention. As used herein, the singular forms "a", "an" and "the" are intended to include the plural forms as well, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise. It should be further understood that, as used in the specification, the term "comprising" specifically refers to the presence of stated features, integers, steps, operations, elements or components, but does not exclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, integers, steps, operations, elements, components or groups thereof.
[0021] Pressure sores are difficult wounds to heal. Some standard operating procedures (SOPs) for treating pressure sores are developed and applied to patients with pressure sores. However, since each patient may have a different medical condition, each patient with a pressure sore requires a customized treatment to care for his / her pressure sore.
[0022] Figure 1 A block diagram illustrating a monitoring system 1 according to some embodiments of the present invention. The monitoring system 1 includes an image capture unit 11, a processor 13, and a storage unit 15. In some embodiments, the image capture unit 11, the processor 13, and the storage unit 15 are electrically coupled via a communication bus 17. The communication bus 17 may allow the image capture unit 11 to transmit image data to the processor 13, and may allow the processor 13 to execute a computer program PG stored in the storage unit 15.
[0023] The processor 13, the storage unit 15 and the computer program PG may be cooperatively configured to perform the functions of the computer program PG. In other words, when executed, the computer program PG may generate one or more interrupts (e.g., software interrupts) to cause the processor 13 and the storage unit 15 to perform the functions of the computer program PG for monitoring the user's pressure sores. The functions of the computer program PG will be further described below.
[0024] In some embodiments, when monitoring of a user's pressure sores is desired, the image capture unit 11 is positioned adjacent to the user for capturing at least one image 110 of the user. After capturing at least one image 110 of the user, the image capture unit 11 transmits the at least one image 110 to the processor 13.
[0025] In other words, the processor 13 fetches at least one image 110 from the image capturing unit 11. At the same time, the processor 13 fetches the medical record data AD stored in the storage unit 15 corresponding to the user.
[0026] Then, in some embodiments, the pressure sore prediction model BM stored in the storage unit 15 is a machine learning model for receiving image data and medical history data corresponding to the user and then predicting changes in the user's pressure sore condition. Therefore, the processor 13 determines a pressure sore condition result 130 corresponding to at least one image 110 and medical history data AD for the user according to the pressure sore prediction model BM.
[0027] In some embodiments, the pressure sore condition result 130 may include different levels for indicating different predictions of the user's pressure sore condition. For example, the pressure sore condition result 130 includes n levels designated as level "1" to level "n". When the pressure sore condition result 130 is determined as level "1", it means that the user's pressure sore condition will get better. When the pressure sore condition result 130 is determined as level "n", it means that the user's pressure sore condition will get worse.
[0028] Therefore, the caregiver who cares for the user may treat the user's pressure sore based on the pressure sore status result 130. For example, the frequency of wound dressing may depend on the pressure sore status result 130. When the pressure sore status result 130 is determined to be level "1", the frequency of wound dressing may be reduced. When the pressure sore status result 130 is determined to be level "n", the frequency of wound dressing should be increased.
[0029] In some embodiments, the pressure sore prediction model BM may include two stages for processing data and generating results. Specifically, in the first stage, images corresponding to the user are classified according to different movement types corresponding to the user. In the second stage, the pressure sore condition result of the user is determined based on the movement type and medical history data of the user.
[0030] Specifically, after the image capturing unit 11 captures at least one image 110 corresponding to the user, the processor 13 determines the movement type corresponding to the at least one image 110 according to the first stage of the pressure ulcer prediction model BM.
[0031] More specifically, the processor 13 takes out at least one image 110 and determines the movement type through the pressure sore prediction model BM. In other words, the processor 13 inputs at least one image 110 into the first stage of the pressure sore prediction model BM to derive the movement type as output data from the first stage of the pressure sore prediction model BM.
[0032] Next, the processor 13 determines the pressure sore condition result 130 corresponding to the movement type and the medical record data AD according to the second stage of the pressure sore prediction model BM. In other words, the processor 13 inputs the movement type and the medical record data AD into the second stage of the pressure sore prediction model BM to derive the pressure sore condition result 130 as output data from the second stage of the pressure sore prediction model BM.
[0033] In some embodiments, before determining the pressure sore condition result 130 , the movement frequency corresponding to the user may be introduced for a more accurate result. In detail, the processor 13 determines the movement frequency according to at least one image 110 corresponding to the user.
[0034] Next, according to the second stage of the pressure sore condition model BM, the processor 13 determines the pressure sore condition result 130 corresponding to the movement frequency, movement type and medical record data AD. In other words, the processor 13 inputs the movement frequency, movement type and medical record data AD into the second stage of the pressure sore prediction model BM to derive the pressure sore condition result 130 as output data from the second stage of the pressure sore prediction model BM.
[0035] Before being put into use, the machine learning model of the present invention may be first generated and trained. Specifically, in some embodiments, the first stage of the pressure sore prediction model BM is configured to convert an image corresponding to a user into information corresponding to the user's movement type, so that the first stage of the pressure sore prediction model BM is trained using a plurality of first data including images and movement types.
[0036] Specifically, each first data includes first training input data and first training output data. The first training input data includes at least one training image. The first training output data includes a movement type corresponding to the at least one training image.
[0037] Therefore, the plurality of first data are used to train the first stage of the pressure sore prediction model BM to identify the image as a moving type. In other words, the plurality of first data can be used to train the first stage of the pressure sore prediction model BM to convert the image into a moving type.
[0038] For example, the training image corresponding to the user may be marked as a training movement type, which includes turning over, feeding, changing the position of an intravenous drip, massaging, cleaning a wound, changing medical items, and the like.
[0039] Therefore, after training using training images and training movement types, the first stage of the pressure ulcer prediction model BM can classify some captured images corresponding to the user according to different movement types, including turning over, feeding, changing the position of intravenous drip, massage, wound cleaning, changing medical items, etc.
[0040] In summary, the first stage of the pressure sore prediction model BM is a trained machine learning scheme, data is input to the first stage of the pressure sore prediction model BM, and then, another data is output from the first stage of the pressure sore prediction model BM based on the input data. In some embodiments, at least one image corresponding to the user is given as input data of the first stage of the pressure sore prediction model BM, and the subsequent output data is a movement type.
[0041] It should be noted that in some embodiments, the first stage of the pressure ulcer prediction model BM can be established based on the You Only Look Once version 3 (YOLOv3) algorithm, the Single Shot multiBox Detection (SSD) algorithm, or the Region with Convolutional Neural Network (R-CNN) algorithm.
[0042] How to establish a machine learning scheme based on the YOLOv3 algorithm, SSD algorithm or R-CNN algorithm through images and movement types (i.e., the first stage of the pressure ulcer prediction model BM in some embodiments) should be understood by technicians in the field based on the above disclosure, and therefore will not be further described in this article.
[0043] In some embodiments, the second stage of the pressure sore prediction model BM is configured to convert the movement type, movement frequency and medical history data corresponding to the user into a pressure sore condition result, so that the second stage of the pressure sore prediction model BM is trained using multiple second data including movement type, movement frequency and medical history data.
[0044] Specifically, each second data includes second training input data and second training output data. The second training input data includes training movement type, training movement frequency and training medical history data. The second training output data includes training pressure sore condition results, and the training pressure sore condition results correspond to the training movement type, training movement frequency and training medical history data.
[0045] Therefore, the plurality of second data are used to train the second stage of the pressure sore prediction model BM to determine the pressure sore condition result according to the movement type, movement frequency and medical history data. In other words, the second stage of the pressure sore prediction model BM can be trained with the plurality of second data to convert the movement type, movement frequency and medical history data into the pressure sore condition result.
[0046] In some embodiments, each training pressure ulcer condition result may be judged by an experienced doctor based on the corresponding training movement type, training movement frequency, and medical history data.
[0047] In some embodiments, the medical record data is in text format and includes factors determined to be imageable pressure ulcer conditions. For example, the medical record data includes at least one of disease type information, prescription information, medical test information, blood pressure information, body temperature information, diagnosis information, medication information, laboratory test information, etc.
[0048] In summary, the second stage of the pressure sore prediction model BM is a trained machine learning scheme, data is input into the second stage of the pressure sore prediction model BM, and then, another data is output from the second stage of the pressure sore prediction model BM based on the input data. In some embodiments, the movement type, movement frequency, and medical history data corresponding to the user are given as input data of the second stage of the pressure sore prediction model BM, and the subsequent output data is the pressure sore condition result.
[0049] It should be noted that in some embodiments, the second stage of the pressure sore prediction model BM can be established according to a deep neural network (DNN) algorithm. How to establish a machine learning scheme (i.e., the second stage of the pressure sore prediction model BM in some embodiments) based on the DNN algorithm through movement type, movement frequency, medical history data, and pressure sore condition results should be understood by those skilled in the art based on the above disclosure, and therefore will not be further described herein.
[0050] In some embodiments, the pressure sore prediction model BM may be a self-learning machine learning model. Specifically, input data (e.g., images corresponding to the user) and output data (e.g., pressure sore condition results based on these images corresponding to the user) from the pressure sore prediction model BM may be used as training input data and training output data, respectively, for training the pressure sore prediction model BM.

In some embodiments, the monitoring system 1 further comprises an indicator 18. After the processor 13 determines the pressure ulcer condition result 130, the processor 13 transmits a signal 132 to trigger the indicator 18 for informing the caregiver of the pressure ulcer condition result 130 so that the caregiver can apply the user's customized plan.
[0052] In some embodiments, the indicator 18 may include a display. The signal that triggers the display may include text information and the display shows the text information. In some embodiments, the indicator 18 may include a light that emits different colors of light to indicate different conditions. For example, red light means that the pressure sore condition will get worse, and green light means that the pressure sore condition will get better.

In some embodiments, the device 4 includes an image capture unit 41, a processor 43, a storage unit 45, and a network interface 49. In some embodiments, the image capture unit 41, the processor 43, the storage unit 45, and the network interface 49 are electrically coupled by a communication bus 47. The communication bus 47 may allow the image capture unit 41 to transfer image data to the processor 43, and may allow the processor 43 to execute a computer program PG stored in the storage unit 45.
[0056] The processor 43, the storage unit 45 and the computer program PG may be configured cooperatively to execute the functions of the computer program. In other words, when executed, the computer program PG may generate one or more interrupts (e.g., software interrupts) to cause the processor 43 and the storage unit 45 to execute the functions of the computer program PG for monitoring the user's pressure sores. The functions of the computer program PG will be further described below.
[0057] In some embodiments, the device 4 may be positioned adjacent to the user, and the image capture unit 41 may capture at least one image 410 of the user. After capturing at least one image 410, the image capture unit 41 transmits the at least one image 410 to the processor. In other words, the processor 43 takes out at least one image 410 from the image capture unit 41.
[0058] In some embodiments, the processor 43 of the device 4 retrieves the medical record data AD from the network database NB via the network interface 49. Then, the processor 43 determines the pressure sore condition result 430 corresponding to the at least one image 410 and the medical record data AD according to the pressure sore prediction model BM stored in the storage unit 45.
[0059] It should be noted that in some embodiments, the apparatus 4 may be an image capture device having higher computing power, so that the image capture device can monitor the user to determine the pressure ulcer condition result 430 while retrieving the medical record data AD corresponding to the user from the network database NB.
