Solution Overview

Problem

Current healthcare systems lack uniformity, currentness, and effective tracking of patient care across different stages and healthcare professionals, leading to potential miscommunication, non-evidence-based treatments, and lack of continuity in care protocols.

Innovation Solution

A system comprising non-transitory computer readable media and processors to provide phase-specific care suggestions to healthcare professionals, utilizing identifiers for individuals, and integrating with electronic medical records to ensure evidence-based, uniform, and monitored care across various stages of medical encounters.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If healthcare professionals rely on their own training and experience to diagnose and treat patients, then they can make individualized decisions, but the care provided is not uniform and may not be based on current evidence

Engineering Contradiction:

Improveindividualized decision-makingVSAvoiduniformity and currentness of care

Core Design Contradiction:

Adaptability or versatilityVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The system implements feedback mechanisms where patient data from electronic medical records is continuously analyzed and fed back to healthcare professionals through care suggestions. This closed-loop feedback ensures that individualized care decisions are informed by current evidence and standardized protocols, resolving the contradiction between personalized decision-making and uniform evidence-based care.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #23Feedback

Solution Approach 2:

The system acts as an intermediary between evidence-based research and healthcare professionals' clinical decisions. It translates current medical evidence into actionable care suggestions that are presented to providers, enabling them to make individualized decisions while maintaining uniformity and currentness of care through the intermediary layer of standardized recommendations.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Adaptability or versatility

If different healthcare professionals treat patients at different stages of care, then specialized expertise is utilized, but there is no uniformity and minimal carry-over of treatment plans between stages

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvespecialized expertise utilizationVSAvoidcontinuity of care protocols

Core Design Contradiction:

Adaptability or versatilityVSStability of the object's composition

Solution Approach 1:

The system implements a universal patient identifier and centralized care plan structure that functions across all stages of care and all healthcare professionals. This multi-functional framework allows each specialist to contribute their expertise while maintaining continuity through the universal care plan that carries over treatments and recommendations across assessment, diagnostic, resuscitation, procedure, and recovery phases.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

Solution Approach 2:

The system ensures continuity of care by maintaining an active, updated care plan that persists across all stages of patient treatment. Treatment plans are continuously carried forward from one phase to the next, with each healthcare professional building upon previous recommendations rather than starting anew, thus maintaining stable and continuous care protocols throughout the patient journey.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #20Continuity of useful action

3Speed

If healthcare professionals execute their own healthcare plans independently, then they can respond quickly to patient needs, but there is effective miscommunication and lack of coordination

Engineering Contradiction:

Improveresponse time to patient needsVSAvoidcommunication accuracy

Core Design Contradiction:

SpeedVSLoss of information

Solution Approach 1:

The system merges independent healthcare professionals' treatment plans into a single coordinated care plan. By combining recommendations from multiple providers into one unified plan stored in the electronic medical record, the system maintains rapid response capabilities while eliminating communication errors through centralized information integration and shared visibility of all treatment decisions.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #5Merging (Combining)
