Definitions

  • This invention relates to electronic communication, such as converting unstructured information into structured information when received by a service provider from a customer.
  • Computer communication allows substantial amounts of useful information to be sent and received relatively quickly and reliably. For example, individuals' can send messages to other individuals using electronic mail, and individuals can publish information for general use using the World Wide Web (the "web").
  • a first advantageous use of computer communication is electronic commerce, in which information is exchanged among or between parties to a commercial transaction, such as between buyers and sellers, or between customers and providers.
  • a second advantageous use of computer communication is providing an interface between a set of customers and an individual provider, so that the service provider can receive and respond to customer requests, and can solicit and fulfill customer business.
  • the Incorporated Disclosures show that medical personnel (provider) can solicit information from customers (patients), so as to make effective use of the provider's expertise when interacting with a large number of customers. As shown in the Incorporated Disclosures, these advantages can be obtained for a variety of possible provider/customer interactions, and can be obtained whether the communication is initiated by the provider or by the customer.
  • One problem in the known art is that communication between the customer and the provider is most efficient when the provider is able to classify the communication (effectively, rapidly, and reliably), so as to determine a response.
  • medical personnel would like to determine whether the patient is calling with a question, a request for a routine service, or a medical emergency.
  • service providers would like to determine whether customers are calling with purchase orders, requests for technical help, or complaints.
  • One known method is to limit the types of information that are communicated.
  • the provider can limit its communications to the customer for information to preselected, specific, requests for data (formatted in a pre-selected, specific, way).
  • the provider can limit those communications it accepts to a set of pre-selected, specific, types, of information. While these methods generally achieve the purpose of structuring the information communicated between customer and provider, they have the drawback that any information not fitting into the pre-selected structure cannot be effectively communicated. It may occur that such information is quite important.
  • the invention provides a method and system for allowing unstructured information to be communicated, and for allowing the receiver of that unstructured information to convert it into structured information for relatively effective, rapid, and reliable classification.
  • Unstructured information is received and processed by a system performing a selected protocol, and in which the selected protocol determines a set of follow-on requests for information with which to respond to the unstructured information.
  • the follow-on requests for information, and responses thereto allow the receiver to classify and structure the originally unstructured information. This allows the receiver to make a response that is appropriate to the originally unstructured information.
  • the system performing the selected protocol includes a customer (patient) client device, such as the "Health Buddy" device described in the Incorporated Disclosures, capable of communicating with a provider server device, such as the information clearinghouse described in the Incorporated Disclosures.
  • the client device can be augmented by patient sensors, patient-initiated communication elements, and transportable patient miniclient devices.
  • Patient sensors can monitor or sense medical information (such as blood gas data, blood glucose data, or weight) or patient compliance with a medical regimen (such as use of prescribed medication).
  • Patient Initiated communication elements can send information to the provider without prompting by the provider (such as when the patient has a question, when the patient thinks there is an alert condition, or when the patient sensors detect possible alert condition).
  • Transportable patient miniclient devices can sense and record information for the patient (such r as blood gas data or heartbeat), so as to send that information to the provider when later coupled to the patient client device, and can provide a communication channel for alert messages.
  • the invention provides an enabling technology for generalized communication between parties that have a need to classify information they receive, to obtain substantial advantages and capabilities that are novel and non-obvious in view of the known art. Examples described below relate to triage of patient communications with medical personnel, but the invention is broadly applicable to many different types of transactions.

  • the client device 1 10, the expert workstation 120 and the service device 130 are coupled using a communication network 140.
  • Each of the one or more client(s) 1 1 1 uses a client device 1 10.
  • Each client device 1 10 includes an output element 1 12, an input element 1 13, a port 1 14 and a variety of peripheral appliances 1 15.
  • the client 1 1 1 manipulates the client device 1 10 to send both unstructured and structured information from the client 1 1 1 to the server 130 and to receive infornlation from the protocol 131.
  • Port 114 can be coupled to a -Y4riety of peripheral appliances 115, including medical sensors, medicinal applicators, or patient-initiated communication elements.
  • the medical sensors and medicinal applicators can provide data for the client device 1 10, and can accept instructions from the client device 110.
  • the client device 110 performs a protocol, by which it can send that data to server 130, evaluate that data, and provide instructions to the peripheral appliances 115.
  • the patient-initiated communication elements can include transportable mini-clients, such as an "alert" button, a pager, a Palm Pilot or other hand-held computer, or another type of device, preferably including an input element (for receiving information and answers to protocol questions from the patient 1 11) and an output element (for presenting questions, data, and suggested actions to the patient 111 ). Integration of such transportable mini-clients into the system, such as to allow patient-initiated communication, is further described in the Incorporate Disclosures.
  • transportable mini-clients such as an "alert" button, a pager, a Palm Pilot or other hand-held computer, or another type of device, preferably including an input element (for receiving information and answers to protocol questions from the patient 1 11) and an output element (for presenting questions, data, and suggested actions to the patient 111 ). Integration of such transportable mini-clients into the system, such as to allow patient-initiated communication, is further described in the Incorporate Disclosures.
  • the patient-initiated communication elements and other peripheral appliances 1 15 can thus generate data, or receive patient input, and thus provide a patient-initiated communication to the server 130.
  • Receipt of the unstructured formation at the server 130 alerts the server 130 to parse the unstructured information (if possible), and to select at least one client I protocol to send to the client device 1 10 for responding to that unstructured information.
  • the server 130 performs a process having the following features:
  • the process is responsive to selected words found in that text. For example, the process is responsive to words with medical implications such as (in a cardiac context) "chest pain” or “heart", or (in a diabetes context) "sores” or “toes".
  • the process is adjusted to be more or less responsive to elected words in response to (a) new medical data about medical conditions, (b) new jargon entering or leaving common language usage, ( c) statistical or other medical information about the population of patients III being served by the server 120. For example, if the population of patients 1 1 1 includes a large number of former coal-mine workers, the process can be adjusted to be more sensitive to text regarding matters relating to breathing or coughing.
  • an aspect of the invention is to select a protocol for performance at the client device 1 10, so as to convert the otherwise unstructured information presented by text (even if it can be searched in response to keywords ) to structured information by a sequence of follow-up questions and answers.
  • the process is responsive to demographic or medical history information about particular patient 1 1 1 making the patient-initiated contact. For example, if the particular patient 1 1 1 has a history of heart disease or is known to be in a high-risk category for heart disease, the process gives more weight to words relating to cardiac problems, and is more likely to select a client protocol relating thereto. Similarly, if the patient-initiated contact is an undifferentiated help call, the process selects a client protocol related to the patient's medical history or most likely immediate need.
  • the process is responsive to history information about patient-initiated contact relating to the particular patient 111. For example, if the particular patient 111 has a history of making very many help calls which are later shown to be unnecessary, the process is more likely to select a client protocol at a relatively lower level of alert. Similarly, if the particular patient 1 11 has a history of not making patient-initiated contacts even when other peripheral devices 1 15 indicate a real need, the process is more likely to select a client protocol at a relatively lower level of alert when the particular patient 1 1 1 finally calls for help.
  • the process is responsive to medical and other data from the other peripheral devices 115 coupled to the client device 1 10.
  • the process can select and send a triage protocol (as further described in the Incorporated Disclosures), which can read data from the other peripheral devices 1 15 and determine a level of immediacy required by the particular patient 1 1 1.
  • the selected protocol is sent to the client device 1 10 and performed by the client device 1 10 in response to the unstructured information.
  • the selected protocol in response to the unstructured information, presents structured questions and answers to the patient 1 1 1 , thus obtaining structured information from the patient 1 1 1 that can be processed in a standardized way.
  • the selected protocol can receive data from the peripheral devices 1 15 in a structured format, thus obtaining structured information from the peripheral devices 1 15 that can be processed in a standardized way.
  • the selected protocol can, in response to the structured information, send messages (with a selected degree of urgency) to the expert workstation 120 regarding the patient 1 1 1.

Abstract

L'invention concerne une technique de transmission d'information non structurée, qui permet au destinataire de convertir cette information en information structurée aux fins de classement relativement efficace, rapide et fiable. L'information non structurée est reçue et traitée par un système appliquant un protocole donné, lequel détermine une série de demandes ultérieures d'information en réaction à l'information non structurée. Ces demandes, et les réponses correspondantes, permettent au destinataire de classer et de structurer l'information de départ non structurée, et d'apporter une réaction appropriée à cette information de départ. Le système qui applique le protocole donné comprend un dispositif client (patient), du type 'système d'accompagnement médical' conformément au descriptif de l'invention, capable de communiquer avec un dispositif serveur, du type centre d'information conformément au descriptif de l'invention. Le dispositif client peut être complété par les moyens suivants: capteurs sur le patient, éléments de communication activés par le patient, et appareils portatifs mini-client du patient. Les capteurs sur le patient peuvent contrôler ou déceler une information médicale (par exemple, données de gazométrie sanguine, données de glycémie, ou données de poids) ou bien encore l'observation d'un traitement médical par le patient (par exemple, prise de médicaments prescrits). Les éléments de communication activés par le patient peuvent se présenter sous la forme de messages d'information envoyés au serveur sans sollicitation de la part de celui-ci (par exemple, question du patient, état d'alerte supposé par le patient, ou détection d'un état d'alerte éventuel par les capteurs du patient). Les appareils portatifs de patient mini-client peuvent déceler et enregistrer l'information pour le patient (par exemple, données de gazométrie sanguine ou rythme cardiaque), de manière à communiquer l'information au serveur lors du couplage ultérieur au dispositif client du patient, et ils peuvent fournir des voies de communication pour les messages d'alerte.
