Abstract

An integrated disease management system provides patients with simple, quick, and readily available counseling regarding a healthy diabetic lifestyle. The system can include an interactive engine with predictive analytics and machine learning to provide a customized experience for a user. The system can be configured to transmit data to a remote server to perform analysis of received data (e.g., disease management data), to provide feedback to the user (e.g., customized feedback with curated content based on a user's data and interface interactions) and send all or a portion of the data and/or curated content to another user device or remote health management access point (e.g., as cloud storage) where the information can be accessed by healthcare stakeholder.

Core Innovation

The invention relates to an integrated diabetes management system that generates a customized user interface for managing a disease of a user. The system detects whether input regarding the disease satisfies one or more criteria defining a combination of events related to managing the disease, identifies one or more user interface options corresponding to the combination of events, and outputs a customized user interface by which the user interacts to manage the disease.

The detection includes determining whether first input regarding one or more user inquiries satisfies at least one first criterion, whether second input regarding medication delivery to the user satisfies at least one second criterion, or whether third input relating to one or more interactions with the user interface satisfies at least one third criterion. The system also receives history data comprising a plurality of spoken questions and applies recognition to the plurality of spoken questions to detect whether the plurality of spoken questions satisfy the one or more criteria defining the combination of events.

For at least certain cases, the system further receives history data comprising one or more selections for carbohydrate intake, exercise, and mood via the user interface, and detects whether the selections satisfy the one or more criteria defining the combination of events. In response to detecting that the input satisfies the one or more criteria, the system identifies user interface options and outputs the customized user interface corresponding to the options.

In other cases, the system additionally identifies a recommended insulin injection site and a recommended injection product based on the combination of events, and further identifies the one or more user interface options that are related to the recommended insulin injection site and the recommended injection product.

Claims Coverage

Independent claims cover a system and methods for generating a customized user interface for disease management by detecting satisfaction of criteria defining a combination of events across multiple input categories, using recognition over spoken questions, and then outputting user interface options tied to recommendations. The inventive features include criteria-based event-combination detection using user inquiries, medication delivery, and user interface interactions, plus carbohydrate intake, exercise, and mood selections and recommendations including insulin injection site and injection product.

Criteria-defined combination-of-events detection for disease-related input

Detecting whether input regarding a disease of a user satisfies one or more criteria defining a combination of events related to managing the disease, including first input regarding one or more user inquiries, second input regarding medication delivery to the user, or third input relating to one or more interactions with the user interface.

Recognition over history data comprising spoken questions

Receiving history data comprising a plurality of spoken questions and applying recognition to the plurality of spoken questions to detect whether the plurality of spoken questions satisfy the one or more criteria defining the combination of events.

Customized user interface output based on detected event-combination criteria

In response to detecting that the input satisfies the one or more criteria, identifying one or more user interface options corresponding to the combination of events and outputting a customized user interface corresponding to the one or more user interface options by which the user will interact to manage the disease of the user.

Insulin injection site and injection product recommendations integrated into interface options

In response to detecting that the input satisfies the one or more criteria, identifying a recommended insulin injection site and a recommended injection product based on the combination of events, and identifying the one or more user interface options that are related to the recommended insulin injection site and the recommended injection product.

Carbohydrate intake, exercise, and mood selection criteria detection

Receiving via the user interface history data comprising one or more selections for carbohydrate intake, exercise, and mood, and detecting whether the selections satisfy the one or more criteria defining the combination of events.

Overall, the independent claims are directed to generating a customized user interface by detecting satisfaction of criteria defining a combination of events for disease management, using recognition on spoken questions and by evaluating distinct input categories. Depending on the independent claim, the interface options can also be driven by selections for carbohydrate intake, exercise, and mood, and can include recommendations such as a recommended insulin injection site and a recommended injection product.
