Abstract
An automatic risk assessment system for care, which is comprised of a sensor, or a set of sensors (A,B,C,D,E,F,X), which measure a person's physiological and psychological characteristics, which can be combined with, or used independently from, other inputs (Q,I,V,W) giving further care related data. For example, sensor (B) measures walking velocity and (I) gives a measure of the Activities of Daily Living assessment. Data from these sources are used to derive care indices, such as mobility (R). Data from these indices, together with data from other sources are used in the predictive risk processor (S), to derive the risk of disease, illness, or accident as a predictive index based on an adaptive algorithm, itself derived from a weighted combination of the known risks. These being sourced from learned sources and from feedback from the system. The value of the predictive risk index (Y) is then used to provide the most appropriate level of intervention for the person at risk. Although the invention is intended to predict care problems due to falls associated with the elderly, it may apply to the prediction of other illnesses or diseases, e.g. heart or cardio disease.
Description
2352815 PREDICTIVE RISK SYSTEMS FOR CARE The present invention relates to
methods and arrangements for an automatic risk assessment system, which in particular but not exclusively can predict, present or future risk as a result of interpreting a set of measured, pre-detennined or pre-existing factors or derived care indices, and then can summon appropriate intervention for a person who as a result of this assessment is determined to be at risk.
Many authors, such as Besdine, Williamson and Isaacs [see, Besdine RW, Geriatric Medicine, "An Overview; Annual Review of Gerontology and Geriatrics"; 1, 135153, 1980; Williamson J et al, "Old People at Home: their Unreported Needs"; Lancet, 1, 1117, 1964; Isaacs B, Gunn J, McKechan A, McMillan I, Neville Y, "The Concept of Pre-death", Lancet, 3, 1115, 1971] have indicated that the present system of health care based on the principle of self-reporting is especially vulnerable when it attempts to meet the health needs of an ageing population whilst preventing institutionalisation. Hence, the inadequate reporting of illness by the elderly makes it much more probable that disease will be far advanced before the elderly patient gets into the health care system. During this delay between onset and detection, it is possible for multiple pathologies to interact, harming the patient and producing irrevocable disability in spite of eventual excellent care.
The present invention relates to a system which if added to the current self-reporting health care systen-4 could provide active case-finding surveillance mechanisms. The present invention relates to a system which collects, collates, and interprets data from a sensor or sensors, from other data sets, and from derived care indices, which enables a measure of present or future risk to be determined. This measure can then be used to alert or inform, at the most appropriate level; either, or a combination of, the person at risk, their caters, care equipment or systems; or other devices, people or systems which could make use of such information. By way of example, data from a variety of measurement devices or sensors, other data sets, and derived care indices relating, by way of example, to physiological, psychological or other care related parameters, could be used to derive a predictive index of the likelihood of a person being at risk of disease, illness or accident in the future.
By way of example, parameters identified by Isaacs [referenced above], that is incontinence, immobility and cognitive impairment, could be used as care indices to derive predictive indices forewarning of the on-set of future possible illness or disease. Also, by way of example, monitoring parameters which predispose people to a subsequent fall could be used to derive a predictive fall index.
According to the present invention there is provided a predictive risk system for care. This comprises a single sensor, or a set of sensors, which could be used separate from, or combined with, additional data from other data sets, such as, by way of example, a record of personal data, environmental data, test data or medical infon-nation. Some or all of this data can be used as inputs to derive care indices, which could be, by way of example, a mobility index. The care indices are determined by processing the data inputs in combination or separately to derive a representative care status for the particular index. By way of example, this could be carried out by an operator or by using simple logic or artificial intelligence techniques. Alternatively or additionally, the data, together with data from the care indices, where appropriate, can be used as inputs for an algorithm or other decision processing methodologies, the output from which gives a prediction of the likelihood of risk. The data inputs can be at various data rates, by way of example, in real time, time delayed, time averaged, yearly, or fixed. The care indices and the predictive index outputs can also be of various forms and data rates. By way of example, a rolling average of an index on a daily basis, or a measured index on a weekly basis. By way of example, the prediction algorithm or other decision processing methodologies could be based on a weighted combination of input data. The weighting factors, by way of example, being determined by a "best understanding" of the risks involved in predicting future disease, illness or accident. This " best understanding" itself being derived from a number of factors. By way of example, the pre-disposition to falling has been studied extensively in the literature [see by way of example, Teno J, Kiel D, Mor V "Multiple Stumbles: A Risk Factor for Falls in Community-Dwelling Elderly" Journal of American Geriatrics Society, 38, 12, 1321-1325, 1990; Koski K, Luukinen H, Laippala P, Kivela S "Physiological Factors and Medications as Predictors of Injurious Falls by Elderly People: A Prospective Population Based Study" Age and Ageing, 1996, 25, 29-3 8; Hombrook M, Stevens V, Wingfield D, Hollis J, Greenlick M, Ory M "Preventing Falls among Conununity Dwelling Older Persons" The
Gerentologist, 1994, 34(l), 16-23; Tinetti M, Mendes de Leon C, Doucette J, Baker D "Fear of Falling-Related Efficacy in Relationship to Functionality among Conununity Living Elders" Journal of Gerontology: Medical Sciences, 1994, 49(3), M140-MI47; Tinetti M, Doucette J, Clause E "The Contribution of Predisposing and Situational Risk-Factors to Serious Fall Injuries" Journal of the American Geriatrics Society, 1995, 43(11), 1207-1213; Studenski S, Duncan P, Chandler J, Samsa G, Prescott B, Hogue C, Bearon L "Predicting Falls: The Role of Mobility and Nonphysical Factors" Journal of the American Geriatrics Society, 1994, 42(3) 297-302; Asada T, Kariya T, Kinoshita T, Asaka A, Morikawa. S, Yoshioka M, Kakuma T "Predictors of Fall- Related Injuries among Conununity Dwelling Elderly People with Dementia" Age and Ageing, 1996, 25, 22-28; Lauritzen J, McNair P, Lund B "Risk Factors for Hip Fractures-A Review" Danish Medical Bullet4 1993, 40(4), 479-485] and these, and other studies, have determined quantitatively those factors which generate the highest risk of a subsequent fall.
A specific embodiment of the invention, by way of example, a predictive system for the risk of a fall, will now be described, with reference to the accompanying drawing in which:
Figure I shows a block diagram of the fall prediction system Referring to the drawing, Figure I shows a block diagram of a predictive system for the risk of a fall, in which A,B,C,D,E,F represent a particular group of sensors which measure respectively; incidence of impacts or knocks and/or falls, walk-velocity, bed use, chair and body mass, movement and drawer use. The outputs from these sensors being K,L,M, N,O,P which respectively provide data on; number of impacts or knocks and/or falls, timed walks, time spent in bed, time spent in a chair and changes in body mass, number of visits to a room, and the number of times a drawer is opened. Q represents data derived from cognitive tests or sensors designed to measure these parameters. Data streams L,M,N are used as inputs for R, which is the processing element designed to provide the mobility index data T. Similarly, data streams 0,P,Q are used as inputs for J, which is the processing element designed to provide the cognition index data U. Personal data or information input to G,H, by way of example, manually or via a computer link, gives data on age V and gender W, 4- respectively. Data on the Activities of Daily Living (ADL) score 1, can be input, by way of example, manually or via a computer link, or could be automatically determined using a sensor set represented by X, some of this sensor set may have common components in the sensors A,B,C,D,E,F. All of this data is used to provide inputs to S, which is a processor which uses this data, together with other data, by way of example, a real time clock, to provide a fall prediction index (FPI) derived from a fall risk algorithm. The fall prediction index can then be sent via a data output device Y, which could be, by way of example, an automated telephone message, to the most appropriate carer or carers. The initial fall risk algorithm is derived from averaging of the coefficients of the adjusted odds ratios for key risk factors identified in the literature, and from other learned sources. These averages are then used to calculate appropriate weights for each risk factor. This algorithm is dynamic in nature enabling it to be revised from up-dated data in the literature, from other learned sources and by feedback data from the systems own predictions, interventions and outcomes. By way of example, Table 1 shows the detail of some of the most significant risk factors, for falls in females, together with their calculated coefficients. The data is taken from the studies from the learned papers referenced above.
