Solution Overview

Problem

Current digital health systems lack standardized data integration, user-friendly interfaces, and effective analysis capabilities to provide personalized medical advice, and face security risks with insufficient communication between healthcare providers and patients.

Innovation Solution

A system and method for collecting, analyzing, and reporting comprehensive medical information using a data management system, knowledge creation engine, and display to present personalized medical advice, along with a healthcare provider preparation document, insight engine, and dynamic questionnaires to gather and analyze data from various sources including EHRs, wearable devices, and biological samples.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If comprehensive medical data from multiple sources is collected and integrated, then the quality and personalization of medical advice improves, but the system complexity and data security risks increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvequality of medical adviceVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system is divided into distinct functional modules: data collection module that gathers information from multiple sources (EHR, wearables, labs), data integration module that standardizes and merges data, analysis module that processes integrated data, and output module that delivers personalized medical advice. This segmentation manages complexity while maintaining comprehensive data integration capabilities.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

A standardized data integration layer acts as an intermediary between diverse data sources and the analysis engine. This intermediary layer implements uniform data formats, validation rules, and security protocols, enabling comprehensive data collection without proportionally increasing system complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Reliability

If comprehensive medical data from multiple sources is collected and integrated, then the quality and personalization of medical advice improves, but data security risks increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvequality of medical adviceVSAvoiddata security risks
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

Security measures are implemented at the data collection stage rather than as afterthoughts. Data is anonymized, encrypted, and validated for security compliance before being stored or processed. Access controls and audit trails are established in advance, preventing security issues rather than reacting to them.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system incorporates redundant security layers including encryption at rest and in transit, multi-factor authentication, and automated anomaly detection. These cushioning measures are built in beforehand to absorb potential security breaches and prevent them from compromising data integrity or patient privacy.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #11Beforehand cushioning (Prior cushioning)

3Loss of information

If multiple data sources are integrated including EHRs, wearables, and biological samples, then the comprehensiveness of medical information improves, but the difficulty of data analysis increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecomprehensiveness of medical informationVSAvoiddifficulty of data analysis
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSDifficulty of detecting and measuring

Solution Approach 1:

The system transforms heterogeneous data from different sources into a unified parameter framework. Clinical data, wearable sensor data, and laboratory results are all converted to standardized parameters with consistent units, scales, and validation rules, making comprehensive analysis feasible without being overwhelmed by data diversity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

Solution Approach 2:

A universal data model and analysis engine are designed to handle multiple data types through a single integrated interface. The system can process EHR data, wearable sensor streams, and laboratory results using the same analytical frameworks, eliminating the need for separate analysis pipelines for each data source.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

4Ease of operation

If a user-friendly interface with simple functional design is implemented, then ease of operation improves, but the capability to handle complex medical data analysis may be reduced

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveuser-friendlinessVSAvoiddata analysis capability
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The system automatically performs complex data integration, validation, and analysis tasks without requiring user intervention. Users simply input basic information through the simple interface, while the backend system autonomously gathers data from multiple sources, processes it through sophisticated algorithms, and generates personalized medical insights, maintaining both simplicity and analytical power.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

An intelligent intermediary layer handles the complexity of data analysis behind the scenes, translating complex computational tasks into simple user-friendly outputs. This mediator shields users from analytical complexity while preserving full data processing capabilities, allowing sophisticated analysis to occur without compromising interface simplicity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)
