Encrypted Code Auto-Configuring Medical Event Triggers
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Patients often fail to adhere to medical treatment regimens due to misunderstanding, forgetting, or ignoring healthcare instructions, leading to detrimental outcomes and increased healthcare costs, as existing systems struggle to effectively manage and ensure compliance with time-sensitive and scattered medical data across various devices and applications.
Innovation Solution
The development of systems and methods for generating and distributing encrypted codes with encoded executable data that can interact with specific client applications and devices, configuring user-specific events for communicating time-sensitive and location-based information, such as reminders and alerts, by auto-configuring events on user devices and integrating with resources like calendars and geolocators.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Loss of information
If medical treatment regimens are managed through scattered data across various devices and applications, then data availability increases, but system complexity and integration difficulty increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines scattered medical data from multiple devices and applications into a unified event management system. The system integrates data from various sources (electronic health records, wearable devices, mobile apps) into a centralized platform that can manage treatment regimens comprehensively, reducing the complexity of managing distributed data while maintaining data availability.
Solution Approach 2:
The event management system is designed to handle multiple types of medical data and treatment regimens through a single universal platform. It can manage medication schedules, appointment reminders, lifestyle modifications, and monitoring tasks across different devices and applications, eliminating the need for separate systems for each function.
2Reliability
If patients receive detailed healthcare instructions, then treatment compliance should improve, but patient understanding and retention decrease due to information overload
Solution Approach 1:
The system segments comprehensive healthcare instructions into discrete, manageable events and tasks. Each treatment requirement is broken down into specific actionable items (e.g., medication dosing, appointment attendance, lifestyle changes) that can be individually tracked and reminded, making complex regimens easier to understand and follow without losing important details.
Solution Approach 2:
The system pre-configures automated reminders and alerts before patients need to perform treatment actions. By providing advance notice and structured guidance for each treatment task, patients can better prepare and understand what needs to be done, improving compliance without overwhelming them with all information at once.
3Reliability
If automated reminder systems are implemented, then patient compliance improves, but system complexity and deployment difficulty increase
Solution Approach 1:
The event management system is designed to automatically configure and deploy reminder functions on patient devices without requiring complex manual setup. The system self-adapts to different devices and applications, automatically managing event scheduling, reminder delivery, and compliance tracking, which simplifies deployment while maintaining high compliance rates.
Solution Approach 2:
The system acts as an intermediary layer between healthcare providers and patients, managing the complexity of automated compliance monitoring. It handles the sophisticated logic of treatment regimens, device integration, and reminder scheduling, while presenting a simple interface to both providers and patients, thereby reducing perceived system complexity.
Data Source
AI summary
In some examples, a system obtains respective information about users and, based on the respective information, generates respective events including an action and parameters defining a trigger for the action. For each user, the system generates a code with data corresponding to a respective event and information, the data including executable data for configuring the respective event and parameters in one or more applications. The system transmits the code to a device associated with the user, which when processed at the device, cause the respective event and parameters to be configured in an application on the device and the trigger to activate the application or device to perform the action, including transmitting, to the system or a display, an indication of a status of the respective event and/or action. The system can also receive an indication when the event has occurred or the trigger has been satisfied.
