Abstract:
1. A system for telemetrically monitoring a patient, the system comprising: a remote monitoring device associated with the patient, the remote monitoring device obtains a physiological value from the patient and broadcasts the physiological value; a location services (LS) system that tracks a plurality of locations of the remote monitoring device; and a patient tracking computer communicatively connected to the remote monitoring device and the LS system, the patient tracking computer receives the physiological value and the plurality of locations of the remote monitoring device and executes computer readable code embodying an algorithm to calculate a distance traveled by the patient and a duration of patient ambulation to travel the calculated distance from the tracked plurality of locations received from the LS system, wherein the patient tracking computer applies an algorithm that identifies a plurality of possible paths between a first location of the plurality of locations of the remote monitoring device and a second location of the remote monitoring device, and calculates a probability that the remote monitoring device traveled a possible path associated with each of the plurality of possible paths, to calculate the distance traveled by the patient.
