Definitions
- the present disclosure relates to methods and apparatuses for diagnosing pneumonia non-invasively and automatically.
- Hospitals, nursing homes, and other patient care facilities typically include patient monitoring devices at one or more bedsides in the facility.
- Patient monitoring devices generally include sensors, processing equipment, and displays for obtaining and analyzing a medical patient's physiological parameters such as blood oxygen saturation level, respiratory rate, pulse rate, and the like.
- Clinicians including doctors, nurses, and other medical personnel, use the physiological parameters obtained from patient monitors to diagnose illnesses and to prescribe treatments. Clinicians also use the physiological parameters to monitor patients during various clinical situations to determine whether to increase the level of medical care given to patients.
- Non-invasive patient monitoring devices include pulse oximeters.
- Pulse oximetry is a widely accepted noninvasive procedure for measuring the oxygen saturation level of arterial blood, an indicator of a person's oxygen supply.
- a pulse oximeter generally includes one or more light sources transmitting optical radiation into or reflecting off through a portion of the body, for example a digit such as a finger, a hand, a foot, a nose, an earlobe, or a forehead.
- one or more photodetection devices After attenuation by tissue and fluids of the portion of the body, one or more photodetection devices detect the attenuated light and output one or more detector signals responsive to the detected attenuated light.
- the oximeter may, in various embodiments, calculate oxygen saturation (SpO 2 ), pulse rate, a plethysmograph waveform, perfusion index (PI), pleth variability index (PVI), methemoglobin (MetHb), carboxyhemoglobin (CoHb), total hemoglobin (tHb), glucose, and/or otherwise, and the oximeter may display on one or more monitors the foregoing parameters individually, in groups, in trends, as combinations, or as an overall wellness or other index.

- the present disclosure describes methods and apparatuses for diagnosing pneumonia with a patient's physiological information.
- Pneumonia can occur at any age, but it is more common in younger children. For instance, pneumonia accounts for 13% of all infectious illnesses in infants younger than 2 years. The high rate of occurrence is, to say the least, of great concern as pneumonia accounts for 16% of all deaths of children under 5 years old, killing 920,136 children in 2015.
- the World Health Organization programme to control pneumonia uses clinical signs to identify pneumonia, and to assess its severity and whether there is a need for hospitalization.
- identification of pneumonia during early infancy presents a special challenge with respect to both assessment and management because clinical presentation of pneumonia is often similar to that of sepsis, meningitis, or a urinary tract infection.
- WHO points to examining the child's respiration rate during a physical exam as an important first step in diagnosing pneumonia.
- WHO has identified respiratory rate thresholds pointing to a sign of pneumonia by age groups, such as greater than equal to 60 breaths per minute for children younger than 2 months, greater than or equal to 50 breaths per minute for children aged 2-11 months, and greater than or equal to 40 breaths per minute for children aged 12-59 months.
- age groups such as greater than equal to 60 breaths per minute for children younger than 2 months, greater than or equal to 50 breaths per minute for children aged 2-11 months, and greater than or equal to 40 breaths per minute for children aged 12-59 months.
- the disclosure describes a pneumonia screener that provides methods and components to help a child be still while the screener takes measurements of physiological parameters.
- the screener may utilize visual and/or auditory stimuli on a display and/or using a speaker, respectively, to soothe or intrigue the child causing the child to focus on the screen and reduce child agitation.
- Visual stimuli may be a display of static pictures, animations, or both.
- the animations may be played or repeated while the screener obtains and/or processes raw data and comes up with its diagnosis.
- Auditory stimuli may be music or some sound effect in relation to the pictures or animations. Detailed aspects of the invention are further described below.
- FIG. 1A illustrates an embodiment of the pneumonia screener 100 .
- the pneumonia screener 100 shown includes a sensor interface 102 for attaching one or more sensors, a display 104 , a speaker (shown in FIG. 3 ), various buttons 106 , 108 , and 110 , and a device body 112 .
- the buttons may include a back button 106 , a menu button 108 , and a system setting button 110 .
- the display 104 may be a touch screen display thereby reducing the number of physical buttons and greatly simplifying the understanding and the operation of the screener.
- the touchscreen display 104 identifies the pneumonia screener to the user as a pneumonia screener and invites a user interaction to proceed with step by step instructions.
- the screener may use familiar smartphone layout to provide more intuitive user interface.
- the screener may also maintain its familiar smartphone look and feel through its positioning of familiar and most frequently used functions such as back functionality 106 , menu functionality, and system setting functionality 110 as separately labelled buttons.
- the back button 106 can provide a quick access to cancel the current operation and return to the previous screen where accidental touching of the touchscreen display 104 can cause unintended inputs.
- the menu button 108 may provide a quick access to often sought out procedures or change of music or animation (disclosed below in reference to FIG. 4 ).
- the system setting button 110 may provide a quick access to change of display 104 settings, such as brightness or contrast, volumes, or preferred measurement units, such as Fahrenheit or Celsius.
- FIG. 1B illustrates an embodiment of an optical sensor 150 that mechanically and electrically attaches to the screener body 112 in FIG. 1A through the sensor interface 102 in FIG. 1A .
- the pneumonia screener 100 includes hardware and/or software capable for determining and/or monitoring blood oxygenation levels, blood flow, respiratory rates, and/or other physiological parameters.
- a pulse oximetry system may use an optical sensor 150 clipped onto a patient's finger, for example, to measure blood oxygenation levels, heart rate, blood flow, respiratory rates, and/or the like.
- the optical sensor 150 may be take on other form factors for easier attachment to other attachment sites, such as toe tips, or nose.
- FIG. 2 illustrates an embodiment showing age group selection screen.
- one of the indicators of pneumonia is respiratory rate which has different thresholds for different age groups.
- the age groups are not necessarily defined in years but may be defined in terms of months. Further, different respiratory rate detection thresholds can be used to determine pneumonia in children.
- the touchscreen display 104 may prompt an operator to a selection of age group.
- the illustration shows the age groups of 0-2 months 202 , 2-12 months 204 , and 12-59 months 206 .
- each age group can have defined respiratory rate threshold for determining pneumonia, for example greater than equal to 60 breaths per minute, 50 breaths per minute, and 40 breaths per minute for each group, respectively.
- a selection of an age group pairs the selected age group with the age group's related threshold respiratory rate programmed in a memory inside the screener. Additionally, the pneumonia screener 100 may match other measurement thresholds, such as oxygen saturation, pulse rate, or other physiological parameters, with the selected age group.
- the touchscreen display 104 may display more age groups and related thresholds for each provided age group.
- the pneumonia screener 100 can provide a confirming user interface, such as the Next button 208 .
- the button may have been deactivated (for example, greyed-out and/or unselectable) until a user selects an age group.
- the screener 100 may not include or skip the confirmation user interface 208 and simply move to a next diagnostic step upon a selection of an age group. In this case, a user may press/touch the back button 106 to return to the age group selection.
- FIG. 3 illustrates an example instruction screen.
- a user is instructed to place an optical sensor 150 on a finger, a toe, ear or other tissue interrogation site.
- the instruction is displayed on the touchscreen display 104 .
- the instruction may be written (“place sensor”) or demonstrated with one or more graphical, moving image or video representations.
- a user may be required to press/touch the Start button 304 to proceed with the diagnostics after placing the sensors.
- One or more sensors 200 may detect their placements from change in optical or electrical readings and report the placement to the screener.
- the Start button 304 may be deactivated until the sensor reports its placement and may only be activated after the placement.
- the screener may automatically proceed to the pneumonia diagnostics upon the report of the placement.
- a failed compliance with an instruction can cause a re-prompt of the instruction, re-initialization of a procedure related to the instruction, or change of instruction conveyance.
- the instructions may appear static or animated or may include one or more instructional videos.
- the screener may instruct the user with voice prompts or sound cues.
- the screener in FIG. 3 include audio or voice prompts including, but not limited to, “place sensor,” “place sensor on the patient's finger tip,” or some similar instruction.
- the sound may come out from the screener's speaker 306 or through some other sound outputting device.
- the written, demonstrative, or sound cues may also be used in informing contexts.
- the screener may provide updates to the diagnostic process, such as “initializing device” or “searching for pulse.”

- sound cues such as a chime, may update the user for events like completion of the pneumonia detection process.
- FIG. 4 illustrates an interface showing an animation indicative of a diagnostic in progress.
- the screener collects physiological information from the optical sensor 150 .
- the pneumonia screener 100 analyzes these plethysmographs to obtain various physiological parameters including oxygen saturation level 402 , pulse rate 404 , and respiratory rates 406 . These three readings are highly informative to a pneumonia diagnosis. Additionally, the non-invasive nature of optical sensors 200 appeals to a wide audience of doctors and patients.
- FIG. 4 illustrates a solution to the patient's distraction and/or agitation.
- the screener 100 can provide some media content (for example, an animation 408 , music, or both) to the patient.
- the animation 408 can show an elephant or other animal or character slowly walking from left to right.
- the screener may output audio stimuli, such as elephant noises and/or elephant's footstep sounds, through one or more speakers 306 attached to the screener. Other animal, character or attention grabbing noises can also sound.
- the screener may play interesting music along with the animation.
- the elephant can be replaced with a giraffe ora moose. Multiple animals or characters walking in tandem can also be presented, either the same or different animals or characters.
- the displays of animal or character animations should not be considered limiting.

- sound including music
- Any animation may be synchronized with music.
- the screener 400 may simultaneously present media content along with diagnostic progress indicators or diagnostic readings.
- the screener 400 may restrict the presentation of the media content to a portion of the display real estate and utilize the remaining display real estate for the diagnostic progress indicators or diagnostic readings.
- FIG. 4 illustrates the screener 400 presenting an animation 408 near the bottom portion of the display with an indication that it is searching for pulse near the top portion.
- the animation can be portioned to occupy various areas of the display real estate, such as the bottom third or fourth.
- the screener 400 indicates one or more physiological data and/or test results (for example, oxygen saturation 402 , pulse rate 404 , and respiratory rate 406 ) in the middle portion.
- a detected waveform may be indicated.
- the portioning of the display real estate allows the patient to remain calm while a care provider can confirm that the measurement is taking place.
- the care provider can catch any problem affecting diagnostics, such as misplaced sensors or undesired patient movements, in real-time and address the problem without having to wait until the completion of the diagnostic process.
- the screener may include such media content internally in its memory.
- the screener may access a media content server via its communication interfaces and download or stream media content.
- the screener may present, via streaming or download, latest episodes of a cartoon during the diagnostics.
- the pneumonia screener can report out whether it has detected pneumonia based on the age group input and the physiological parameter readings.
- the report may be accompanied with a visual indication, sound indication, or both.
- the pneumonia screener may also report out the severity of pneumonia based on the deviation from the stored threshold parameters or related tolerances.
- Each age group may have multiple associated threshold values each threshold value associated with a severity of pneumonia.

Description
- Any and all applications for which a foreign or domestic priority claim is identified in the Application Data Sheet as filed with the present application are hereby incorporated by reference under 37 CFR 1.57.
- This application is a divisional of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 15/917,405, filed Mar. 9, 2018, titled “PNEUMONIA SCREENER,” which claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Application No. 62/470,096, filed Mar. 10, 2017, titled “PNEUMONIA SCREENER,” the entire disclosures of which are hereby incorporated by reference.
- In general, the present disclosure relates to methods and apparatuses for diagnosing pneumonia non-invasively and automatically.
- Hospitals, nursing homes, and other patient care facilities typically include patient monitoring devices at one or more bedsides in the facility. Patient monitoring devices generally include sensors, processing equipment, and displays for obtaining and analyzing a medical patient's physiological parameters such as blood oxygen saturation level, respiratory rate, pulse rate, and the like. Clinicians, including doctors, nurses, and other medical personnel, use the physiological parameters obtained from patient monitors to diagnose illnesses and to prescribe treatments. Clinicians also use the physiological parameters to monitor patients during various clinical situations to determine whether to increase the level of medical care given to patients.
- Examples of non-invasive patient monitoring devices include pulse oximeters. Pulse oximetry is a widely accepted noninvasive procedure for measuring the oxygen saturation level of arterial blood, an indicator of a person's oxygen supply. A pulse oximeter generally includes one or more light sources transmitting optical radiation into or reflecting off through a portion of the body, for example a digit such as a finger, a hand, a foot, a nose, an earlobe, or a forehead. After attenuation by tissue and fluids of the portion of the body, one or more photodetection devices detect the attenuated light and output one or more detector signals responsive to the detected attenuated light. The oximeter may, in various embodiments, calculate oxygen saturation (SpO2), pulse rate, a plethysmograph waveform, perfusion index (PI), pleth variability index (PVI), methemoglobin (MetHb), carboxyhemoglobin (CoHb), total hemoglobin (tHb), glucose, and/or otherwise, and the oximeter may display on one or more monitors the foregoing parameters individually, in groups, in trends, as combinations, or as an overall wellness or other index. An example of such an oximeter, which can utilize an optical sensor described herein, are described in U.S. application Ser. No. 13/762,270, filed Feb. 7, 2013, titled “Wireless Patient Monitoring Device,” U.S. application Ser. No. 14/834,169, filed Aug. 24, 2015, titled “Wireless Patient Monitoring Device,” and U.S. application Ser. No. 14/511,974, filed Oct. 10, 2014, titled “Patient Position Detection System,” the disclosures of which are hereby incorporated by reference in their entirety. Other examples of such oximeters are described in U.S. application Ser. No. 09/323176, filed May 27, 1999, titled “Stereo Pulse Oximeter,” now U.S. Pat. No. 6,334,065, the disclosure of which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety.
- In noninvasive devices and methods, a sensor is often adapted to position a portion of the body proximate the light source and light detector. In one example, noninvasive sensors often include a clothespin-shaped finger clip that includes a contoured bed conforming generally to the shape of a finger. An example of such a noninvasive sensor is described in U.S. application Ser. No. 12/829,352, filed Jul. 1, 2010, titled “Multi-Stream Data Collection System for Noninvasive Measurement of Blood Constituents,” now U.S. Pat. No. 9,277,880, the disclosure of which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety. In another example, noninvasive sensors can include one or more sensing components, such as the light source and/or the photodetectors on an adhesive tape, such as described in U.S. application Ser. No. 13/041,803, filed May 7, 2011, titled “Reprocessing of a physiological sensor,” now U.S. Pat. No. 8,584,345, the disclosure of which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety.
- The patient monitoring devices can also communicate with an acoustic sensor comprising an acoustic transducer, such as a piezoelectric element. The acoustic sensor can detect respiratory and other biological sounds of a patient and provide signals reflecting these sounds to a patient monitor. An example of such an acoustic sensor, which can implement any of the acoustic sensing functions described herein, is described in U.S. application Ser. No. 12/643,939, filed Dec. 21, 2009, titled “Acoustic Sensor Assembly,” and in U.S. Application No. 61/313,645, filed Mar. 12, 2010, titled “Acoustic Respiratory Monitoring Sensor Having Multiple Sensing Elements,” the disclosures of which are hereby incorporated by reference in their entirety.
- The present disclosure describes methods and apparatuses for diagnosing pneumonia with a patient's physiological information. In developing countries, access to adequate healthcare is often limited. Local care providers often have limited training at best. The present disclosure provides a low cost accurate and very user-friendly system to detect pneumonia. The present disclosure has specific application to pediatric patients.
- The disclosure provides a portable pneumonia screening device including one or more sensors configured to obtain physiological information. The one or more sensors can include one or more optical sensors.
- The pneumonia screener can provide interfaces to assist selecting a patient's age group. The pneumonia screener may provide age group in terms of months or years, including age group of one or more months such as 0 to 2 months. The screener may match a selected age group from a set of programmed threshold levels of oxygen saturation, respiratory, pulse rate, or other physiological parameters to assist pneumonia diagnosis.
- The pneumonia screener can provide a clinician, a user, operator, or a patient with one or more instructions. The instructions may be displayed on a monitor of the screener as legible instructions or graphical representations. The instructions can, in addition or alternatively, be audio prompts through a speaker, such as voice prompts. The screener may require user interaction before proceeding to a next instruction. A failed compliance with an instruction can optionally re-prompt the instruction, re-initialize a procedure related to the instruction, or change the means of instruction conveyance. The instructions may be static or animated.
- The pneumonia screener can provide one or more audio stimuli (for example, sounds and/or music). In addition to the instructive voice prompts, the sounds and music may indicate initialization of the screener and/or entry of user input. The screener may also use the sounds and music to indicate initialization, diagnostic in progress, completion, or other events or progress of events. The sounds or music may be coupled with visual stimuli, such as an animation.
- The pneumonia screener can provide a diagnostic indicator indicating detection of pneumonia. The screener can provide additional diagnostic information related to and indicating severity of pneumonia.
- For purposes of summarizing the disclosure, certain aspects, advantages and novel features of the inventions have been described herein. It is to be understood that not necessarily all such advantages can be achieved in accordance with any particular embodiment of the inventions disclosed herein. Thus, the inventions disclosed herein can be embodied or carried out in a manner that achieves or optimizes one advantage or group of advantages as taught herein without necessarily achieving other advantages as can be taught or suggested herein.
- Various embodiments will be described hereinafter with reference to the accompanying drawings. These embodiments are illustrated and described by example only, and are not intended to limit the scope of the disclosure. In the drawings, similar elements have similar reference numerals.

FIG. 1B illustrates an oximetry sensor that may connect to the pneumonia screener inFIG. 1A . -
FIG. 2 illustrates an interface showing age group selection screen. -

FIG. 5 illustrates a system block diagram of a pneumonia diagnostics system. - The present disclosure describes methods and apparatuses for diagnosing pneumonia with a patient's physiological information. Pneumonia can occur at any age, but it is more common in younger children. For instance, pneumonia accounts for 13% of all infectious illnesses in infants younger than 2 years. The high rate of occurrence is, to say the least, of great concern as pneumonia accounts for 16% of all deaths of children under 5 years old, killing 920,136 children in 2015.
- The World Health Organisation (WHO) programme to control pneumonia uses clinical signs to identify pneumonia, and to assess its severity and whether there is a need for hospitalization. However, identification of pneumonia during early infancy presents a special challenge with respect to both assessment and management because clinical presentation of pneumonia is often similar to that of sepsis, meningitis, or a urinary tract infection. To address the difficulty in assessment, WHO points to examining the child's respiration rate during a physical exam as an important first step in diagnosing pneumonia.
- Specifically, WHO has identified respiratory rate thresholds pointing to a sign of pneumonia by age groups, such as greater than equal to 60 breaths per minute for children younger than 2 months, greater than or equal to 50 breaths per minute for children aged 2-11 months, and greater than or equal to 40 breaths per minute for children aged 12-59 months. When respiratory symptoms are present, assessment of oxygen saturation by pulse oximeters to supplement the respiratory rates can be used for more accurate diagnosis. Respiratory readings, along with oxygen saturation, pulse rate, temperature, and other physiological parameters, can provide a highly effective detection analysis.
- However, several factors make accurate and reliable detection of respiratory rates and other physiological parameters in children difficult. For example, children often have a different state of mind than an average adult patient in that they are easily distracted or agitated. Agitated children tend to move about, causing noise on the measurement signal that can degrade the measurement and lead to inaccurate results.
- The disclosure describes a pneumonia screener that provides methods and components to help a child be still while the screener takes measurements of physiological parameters. The screener may utilize visual and/or auditory stimuli on a display and/or using a speaker, respectively, to soothe or intrigue the child causing the child to focus on the screen and reduce child agitation. Visual stimuli may be a display of static pictures, animations, or both. The animations may be played or repeated while the screener obtains and/or processes raw data and comes up with its diagnosis. Auditory stimuli may be music or some sound effect in relation to the pictures or animations. Detailed aspects of the invention are further described below.
-
FIG. 1A illustrates an embodiment of thepneumonia screener 100. Thepneumonia screener 100 shown includes asensor interface 102 for attaching one or more sensors, adisplay 104, a speaker (shown inFIG. 3 ),various buttons device body 112. The buttons may include aback button 106, amenu button 108, and asystem setting button 110. Thedisplay 104 may be a touch screen display thereby reducing the number of physical buttons and greatly simplifying the understanding and the operation of the screener. For example, thetouchscreen display 104 identifies the pneumonia screener to the user as a pneumonia screener and invites a user interaction to proceed with step by step instructions. The screener may use familiar smartphone layout to provide more intuitive user interface. The screener may also maintain its familiar smartphone look and feel through its positioning of familiar and most frequently used functions such asback functionality 106, menu functionality, andsystem setting functionality 110 as separately labelled buttons. - The
back button 106 can provide a quick access to cancel the current operation and return to the previous screen where accidental touching of thetouchscreen display 104 can cause unintended inputs. Themenu button 108 may provide a quick access to often sought out procedures or change of music or animation (disclosed below in reference toFIG. 4 ). Thesystem setting button 110 may provide a quick access to change ofdisplay 104 settings, such as brightness or contrast, volumes, or preferred measurement units, such as Fahrenheit or Celsius. -
FIG. 1B illustrates an embodiment of anoptical sensor 150 that mechanically and electrically attaches to thescreener body 112 inFIG. 1A through thesensor interface 102 inFIG. 1A . Thepneumonia screener 100 includes hardware and/or software capable for determining and/or monitoring blood oxygenation levels, blood flow, respiratory rates, and/or other physiological parameters. For example, a pulse oximetry system may use anoptical sensor 150 clipped onto a patient's finger, for example, to measure blood oxygenation levels, heart rate, blood flow, respiratory rates, and/or the like. In some embodiments, theoptical sensor 150 may be take on other form factors for easier attachment to other attachment sites, such as toe tips, or nose. -
FIG. 2 illustrates an embodiment showing age group selection screen. As described above, one of the indicators of pneumonia is respiratory rate which has different thresholds for different age groups. The age groups are not necessarily defined in years but may be defined in terms of months. Further, different respiratory rate detection thresholds can be used to determine pneumonia in children. Thetouchscreen display 104 may prompt an operator to a selection of age group. The illustration shows the age groups of 0-2months 202, 2-12months 204, and 12-59months 206. Further, each age group can have defined respiratory rate threshold for determining pneumonia, for example greater than equal to 60 breaths per minute, 50 breaths per minute, and 40 breaths per minute for each group, respectively. A selection of an age group pairs the selected age group with the age group's related threshold respiratory rate programmed in a memory inside the screener. Additionally, thepneumonia screener 100 may match other measurement thresholds, such as oxygen saturation, pulse rate, or other physiological parameters, with the selected age group. Thetouchscreen display 104 may display more age groups and related thresholds for each provided age group. Thepneumonia screener 100 can provide a confirming user interface, such as theNext button 208. The button may have been deactivated (for example, greyed-out and/or unselectable) until a user selects an age group. Optionally, thescreener 100 may not include or skip theconfirmation user interface 208 and simply move to a next diagnostic step upon a selection of an age group. In this case, a user may press/touch theback button 106 to return to the age group selection. -
FIG. 3 illustrates an example instruction screen. A user is instructed to place anoptical sensor 150 on a finger, a toe, ear or other tissue interrogation site. The instruction is displayed on thetouchscreen display 104. As shown, the instruction may be written (“place sensor”) or demonstrated with one or more graphical, moving image or video representations. A user may be required to press/touch theStart button 304 to proceed with the diagnostics after placing the sensors. One ormore sensors 200 may detect their placements from change in optical or electrical readings and report the placement to the screener. Optionally, theStart button 304 may be deactivated until the sensor reports its placement and may only be activated after the placement. Optionally, the screener may automatically proceed to the pneumonia diagnostics upon the report of the placement. A failed compliance with an instruction can cause a re-prompt of the instruction, re-initialization of a procedure related to the instruction, or change of instruction conveyance. The instructions may appear static or animated or may include one or more instructional videos. - The screener may instruct the user with voice prompts or sound cues. In addition to written and demonstrative instructions or in place of them, for example, the screener in
FIG. 3 include audio or voice prompts including, but not limited to, “place sensor,” “place sensor on the patient's finger tip,” or some similar instruction. The sound may come out from the screener'sspeaker 306 or through some other sound outputting device. In addition to prompting contexts, the written, demonstrative, or sound cues may also be used in informing contexts. For example, in addition to voice prompts requesting user interactions, such as “place sensor,” the screener may provide updates to the diagnostic process, such as “initializing device” or “searching for pulse.” Also, in lieu of voice updates, sound cues, such as a chime, may update the user for events like completion of the pneumonia detection process. -
FIG. 4 illustrates an interface showing an animation indicative of a diagnostic in progress. After anoptical sensor 150 is placed on a patient and diagnostic process has begun, the screener collects physiological information from theoptical sensor 150. Thepneumonia screener 100 analyzes these plethysmographs to obtain various physiological parameters includingoxygen saturation level 402,pulse rate 404, andrespiratory rates 406. These three readings are highly informative to a pneumonia diagnosis. Additionally, the non-invasive nature ofoptical sensors 200 appeals to a wide audience of doctors and patients. - The collection of physiological information and analyses are not instantaneous and can take time to complete. Complicating the diagnostics is the fact that pulse rate and respiratory have strong correlation with a patient's state of mind. When a patient is a child, accurate measurement becomes even more difficult. As described, children are easily distracted or agitated. An agitated or distracted child may show measurements exceeding threshold as a result of the distraction or agitation, making the whole diagnosis unreliable. Similar problems exist with adults.
-
FIG. 4 illustrates a solution to the patient's distraction and/or agitation. Thescreener 100 can provide some media content (for example, ananimation 408, music, or both) to the patient. Theanimation 408 can show an elephant or other animal or character slowly walking from left to right. The screener may output audio stimuli, such as elephant noises and/or elephant's footstep sounds, through one ormore speakers 306 attached to the screener. Other animal, character or attention grabbing noises can also sound. The screener may play interesting music along with the animation. The elephant can be replaced with a giraffe ora moose. Multiple animals or characters walking in tandem can also be presented, either the same or different animals or characters. The displays of animal or character animations should not be considered limiting. In addition to any animals or characters, any type of animation (including static pictures) and sound (including music) that invites a child's intrigue and occupies the child's mind during the diagnostic process may be utilized. As the animation and music catches the child's attention, the child becomes distracted into, instead of distracted away from, thescreener 100 which helps to calm the child during the diagnostic. Any animation may be synchronized with music. - The
screener 400 may simultaneously present media content along with diagnostic progress indicators or diagnostic readings. For example, thescreener 400 may restrict the presentation of the media content to a portion of the display real estate and utilize the remaining display real estate for the diagnostic progress indicators or diagnostic readings. For example,FIG. 4 illustrates thescreener 400 presenting ananimation 408 near the bottom portion of the display with an indication that it is searching for pulse near the top portion. The animation can be portioned to occupy various areas of the display real estate, such as the bottom third or fourth. In the example illustration, thescreener 400 indicates one or more physiological data and/or test results (for example,oxygen saturation 402,pulse rate 404, and respiratory rate 406) in the middle portion. Optionally, a detected waveform may be indicated. - The portioning of the display real estate allows the patient to remain calm while a care provider can confirm that the measurement is taking place. The care provider can catch any problem affecting diagnostics, such as misplaced sensors or undesired patient movements, in real-time and address the problem without having to wait until the completion of the diagnostic process.
- The screener may include such media content internally in its memory. Alternatively or in addition to, the screener may access a media content server via its communication interfaces and download or stream media content. For example, the screener may present, via streaming or download, latest episodes of a cartoon during the diagnostics.
- The pneumonia screener can report out whether it has detected pneumonia based on the age group input and the physiological parameter readings. The report may be accompanied with a visual indication, sound indication, or both. The pneumonia screener may also report out the severity of pneumonia based on the deviation from the stored threshold parameters or related tolerances. Each age group may have multiple associated threshold values each threshold value associated with a severity of pneumonia. The screener may report severity based on the threshold value associated with the determined respiratory rate of the patient.

Thedisplay 542 and theinput device 544 can have the same form factor and share some resources, such as in a touch screen-enabled display. - The
pneumonia screener 502 can be connected to amedia content server 546 via one or more networks 548 (such as the Internet, 3G/Wi-Fi/LTE/5G networks, satellite networks, etc.). Thepneumonia screener 502 can stream or download media content from themedia content server 546 through wiredconnections 512 orwireless connections 514. Additionally, thepneumonia screener 502 may acquire new media content viaother ports 516 by physically coupling external storage, such as USB thumb drives. Some media content may be stored in and accessed from the screener's internalmedia content module 538. - The
pneumonia screener 502 may interface with one ormore sensors 550 via its sensor interface 518 (e.g.,FIG. 1A, 102 ). Various types of sensors may be connected to thepneumonia screener 502 including acoustic sensor or an optical sensor. The one or more sensors can provide thepneumonia screener 502 with physiological parameter readings indicative of an existence of a pneumonia condition. - The
memory 506 can contain computer program instructions (grouped as modules or components in some embodiments) that thehardware processor 504 can execute in order to implement one or more embodiments described herein. Thememory 506 can generally include RAM, ROM and/or other persistent, auxiliary or non-transitory computer-readable media. Thememory 506 can store anoperating system 524 that provides computer program instructions for use by thehardware processor 504 in the general administration and operation of thepneumonia screener 502. - The
memory 506 can include computer program instructions and other information for implementing aspects of the present disclosure including a respiratoryrate calculation module 526, pulserate calculation module 528, oxygensaturation calculation module 530,other measurement modules 532pneumonia diagnostics module 534,media content module 538, and/or any combination of modules. - The
pneumonia diagnostics module 534 can, from one or more physiological parameters determined from other modules (for example, 526, 528, 530, 532), determine a patient's likelihood of having a pneumonia condition. Thepneumonia diagnostics module 534 may include age and relateddetection threshold associations 536 with which it can diagnose the likelihood of the pneumonia condition. Thepneumonia diagnostics module 534 can indicate the result of diagnosis via the display and/or the speaker. In some embodiments, the results may only be indicated with a set of distinguishable sounds so as to not disturb the patient with the diagnosis. For example, an absence of pneumonia condition may be indicated with a high pitch tone while an existence of pneumonia condition may be indicated with a low pitch tone. - The
pneumonia screener 502 may includemedia content module 538 that stores, indexes, and/or otherwise make media content available for thepneumonia screener 502 for presentation to thespeaker 540 and/ordisplay 542. Based on the patient interactions received through the one ormore input devices 544, thepneumonia screener 502 may alter the media content presented to the patient. - The
pneumonia screener 502 may be a stand-alone device configured to couple with one ormore sensors 550. Thepneumonia screener 502 may be an application configured to run on a mobile device, such as a smart phone or a tablet computer, which can be coupled with the one ormore sensors 550 via the mobile device's interfaces. - Many other variations than those described herein will be apparent from this disclosure. For example, certain acts, events, or functions of any of the algorithms described herein can be performed in a different sequence, can be added, merged, or left out altogether (e.g., not all described acts or events are necessary for the practice of the algorithms). Moreover, acts or events can be performed concurrently, e.g., through multi-threaded processing, interrupt processing, or multiple processors or processor cores or on other parallel architectures, rather than sequentially.
