A method, medium, and apparatus extracting avatar parameters using an avatar transformation algorithm from health state information measured from a user and generating an avatar using the extracted parameters. In the apparatus, a state analysis unit receives at least one among a bio-signal and questionary information of a user and outputs health state information, a parameter extraction unit extracts parameters defining an avatar image, and an avatar generation unit generates the avatar image using the parameters. By providing the method, medium, and apparatus, it is possible to provide a user with a convenience in recognizing his health state by generating an avatar image describing the user's future health state as well as the user's current health state. Further, it is possible to induce a user to manage his health constantly by maintaining a user's with the avatar image change.

A system and method for providing closely-followed cardiac therapy management through automated patient care is presented. A patient under remote care is enrolled in a monitoring program following commencement of a cardiac therapy regimen to be undertaken by the patient. A wearable monitor, including one or more patient physiology sensors and a wireless interface providing enabling bi-directional data exchange, is provided to the patient. Patient physiometry, including quantitative physiological measures, is periodically collected from the wearable monitor over the wireless interface concomitant to performance of the cardiac therapy regimen. The patient physiometry is evaluated to determine a trend indicating an onset, progression, regression, absence of, and status quo of patient health status.

An integrated subject monitoring system facilitates measurement, collection and analysis of data pertaining to the health status of a subject. The system includes a network-coupled computer and subsystems monitoring subject location within a defined space and the curtilage thereof and obtaining measurements of a subject's physiological or behavioral/cognitive parameters within the defined space. Parameter data is obtained primarily passively, without the cooperation or active participation of the subject. A method of monitoring the physiological and behavioral/cognitive health status of an ambulatory subject involves monitoring in a primarily passive fashion, irrespective of the active collaboration of the subject. Subject health indicia parameters are continuously monitored, sampled and recorded. Captured values are compared to initial baseline values established for each of the measured parameters as well as to the trend for the parameter of that subject. Readings falling outside the boundaries trigger a signal to be sent to an appropriate party.

The present invention leverages a data gathering service to provide information regarding a system's health state via a computing entity, local and/or remote. This provides an optimized means to aggregate a single network's data and/or multiple networks' data, decreasing the amount of effort required by system administrators to manage health related alerts. In one instance of the present invention, a data gathering service aggregates health data from systems and provides access to this information via a communication means. In another instance of the present invention, aggregated, averaged data is utilized to provide manual and/or automatic control and/or management facilitation of health monitoring related tasks.

A mattress pad that delivers magnetic and cymatic therapy to a resting or sleeping human body. The device consists of a mattress pad composed of various comfort supporting materials incorporating interspersed throughout the pad small transducers to deliver cymatic vibrations and permanent magnets fixed at the center of each transducer to deliver magnetic field therapy. Both the cymatic vibrations and the magnetic field therapy are delivered to the limbs and organs of the body concurrently. The magnetic field also serves as a conduit for the cymatic vibrations providing a magnetic inductive coupling within the cells of the body which assists in restoring the cells to their healthy-state natural resonant frequency.

A health care management method and device which display information on a health state of a patient related to first bio-information and second bio-information of the patient, display information that requests the patient to obtain a second measurement of the first bio-information or the second bio-information based on a schedule, and display a bio-information measurement view to assist the patient in obtaining the second measurement.

A system that supports multiple contact centers includes a communications network that is coupled between a private network (e.g. MPLS network) and a remote computing environment (e.g. cloud environment). A server system in the remote computing environment monitors health of different network segments (e.g. bandwidth of the connection between the communications network and the remote computing environment, bandwidth of a link used by a tenant to access the private network, etc.). When it is determined that quality of service for voice conversations for one or more contact centers is at risk due to a health status parameter of a network segment reaching a threshold, an appropriate system reaction is triggered. The system reaction may be to offload future calls to a peer remote computing environment to service future calls. The system reaction may also be to cancel outbound campaigns, provide pre-determined “sorry” messages, and the like.

Methods for screening a traveler for an evaluation of the traveler's physical condition or health status by obtaining at least one specimen from the traveler and subjecting the specimen to at least one test that is diagnostic for at least one parameter of the physical condition or health status of the traveler prior to or while the traveler undertakes a journey. Thereafter, the results of the diagnostic test are reported prior to or contemporaneous with the arrival of the traveler at the traveler's destination.

The present invention comprises a method for managing patient health status data. More specifically, a method and system is disclosed for reviewing and analyzing patient health related information and ensuring that it contains all appropriate health status data for the patient. All of a patient's health related information is gathered from available sources. That information is then analyzed to determine whether the appropriate health status data is present in the patient's health information. All appropriate health status data that is unreported in or inconsistent with the patient's health related information is identified. The patient's physician is then presented with suggested supplemental appropriate health status data and the physician's approval or rejection of the suggestion is sought. After the physician's approval or rejection, the patient's health status data is supplemented accordingly, and the data is compiled for future use or processing.

We disclose a health metric validation system in which a first heath metric is taken which is a measurement that is relevant to a user's health status. The first health metric may be used to diagnose a disease. A second metric is collected from the user and used to validate the first health metric. The first health metric and the second metric are entered into a computer which applies a first set of rules to the first health metric and second metric. The computer calculates a weight value and assigns it to the first health metric. The computer applies a second set of rules to the first health metric and its weight value to calculate an indicator value. The indicator value provides an indication of the validity of the first health metric.

A method of diagnosing a state of health of a vision-based lane sensing system. A first misalignment factor is calculated as a function of a vehicle lateral offset and a vehicle heading. A second misalignment factor is calculated as a function of a vehicle speed, an estimated curvature of an expected path of travel, a lane curvature, and the vehicle heading. Histograms are generated for the first and second misalignment factors. A probability of a state of health is determined. A determination is made whether the probability of the state of health is within a predetermined threshold. An angle misalignment of the vision system is estimated. The angle misalignment of the vision system is corrected in response to the determination that the probability of the state of health is within the predetermined threshold; otherwise a warning of a faulty lane sensing system is actuated.
