Solution Overview

Problem

Current patient care plans are not personalized to individual patients' unique lifestyles and medical conditions, leading to inadequate adherence and management of chronic illnesses, as they are based on generic demographics rather than specific lifestyle and environmental factors.

Innovation Solution

A data processing system that simulates communications with patients to evaluate and modify operations, using personalized care plan creation and monitoring (PCPCM) systems to integrate lifestyle information from various sources, including geospatial, environmental, and behavioral data, to generate tailored care plans and monitoring actions.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If generic demographic-based care plans are used, then implementation simplicity is maintained, but patient adherence and personalization deteriorate

Engineering Contradiction:

Improveimplementation simplicityVSAvoidpatient adherence

Core Design Contradiction:

Ease of operationVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary actions by collecting and analyzing lifestyle information, geospatial data, environmental factors, and behavioral patterns before generating care plans. This advance preparation enables personalized recommendations that adapt to individual patient characteristics while maintaining automated generation processes

Inventive Principle:

Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system creates virtual copies of patient scenarios through simulation environments that replicate real-world conditions. By copying and analyzing simulated patient interactions and outcomes, the system learns to generate personalized care plans without requiring complex manual intervention for each individual case

Inventive Principle:

Principle #26Copying

2Adaptability or versatility

If manual vendor communications are used, then communication flexibility is maintained, but system responsiveness and evaluation capability deteriorate

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvecommunication flexibilityVSAvoidsystem responsiveness

Core Design Contradiction:

Adaptability or versatilityVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The system implements feedback mechanisms where simulated communication results are evaluated and fed back into the care plan generation process.

AI summary

Mechanisms are provide for modifying the selection of modes of communication for communicating with patients based on a simulation of vendor communications. A communication simulation is configured with configuration parameters defining expected results of a plurality of communications with patients handled by a communication vendor system associated with a personalized care plan creation and monitoring (PCPCM) system. The plurality of communications are simulated to generate simulated results and a response of the PCPCM system to the simulated results of the plurality of communications is determined. The response of the PCPCM system is evaluated to determine if the PCPCM system responds correctly to the simulated results, and an operation of the PCPCM system is modified based on results of the evaluation.
