Abstract

Structure-based processing includes a method of diagnosing diseases that works by arranging diseases, symptoms, and questions into a set of related disease, symptom, and question structures, such as objects or lists, in such a way that the structures can be processed to generate a dialogue with a patient. A structure-based processing system organizes medical knowledge into formal structures and then executes those structures on a structure engine to automatically select the next question. Patient responses to the questions lead to more questions and ultimately to a diagnosis. An object-oriented embodiment includes software objects utilized as active, intelligent agents where each object performs its own tasks and calls upon other objects to perform their tasks at the appropriate time to arrive at a diagnosis. Alternative symptoms, synergies, encoding of patient responses, multiple diagnostic modes, disease profiles or timelines, and the reuse of diagnostic objects enhance the processing of the system and method.

Description

technical field [0001] The field of the invention relates to computerized medical diagnostic systems. More specifically, embodiments of the present invention relate to a computerized system for time-based diagnosis of patient medical complaints utilizing dynamic data structures. Background technique [0002] Health care spending now accounts for a sizable portion of U.S. gross national product and is generally growing faster than any other component of the consumer price index. In addition, many people do not have access to even the most basic health care and information, often because of unaffordable medical services. [0003] Many people delay access to treatment, or are prevented from seeking it, because of price and time constraints, or because of inconvenience. Many diseases could be prevented if the public had universal, unrestricted, and easy access to medical information. Likewise, early detection and treatment of many diseases can save many patients from reaching...
