Abstract:
An evaluating system for obtaining diagnostic information for a current patient from signals of medical systems, including:a medical sensor system having a plurality of sensor channels for detecting biological activities of a patient over a given period of time and outputting corresponding sensor signals; at least one database containing a plurality of reference data sets, each reference data set including comparable sensor signals and technical, medical, diagnostic and personal information for a past patient; a comparator in communication with the medical sensor system and the database which compares the sensor signals with the comparable sensor channels of the reference data sets stored in the database, wherein the comparator selects reference data sets having similar sensor signals to the sensor signals of the current patient; and a computer which determines a probability for the selected reference data sets by comparing the technical, medical, diagnostic and personal information of the selected reference data sets with technical, medical, diagnostic and personal information from the current patient.
