Patent ID: 6913577

Claim:
A system for diagnosing and monitoring myocardial ischemia for automated remote patient care, comprising: a database storing a plurality of monitoring sets which each comprise recorded measures relating to patient information recorded on a substantially continuous basis; a server retrieving and processing a plurality of the monitoring sets, comprising: a comparison module determining a patient status change by comparing at least one recorded measure and time from each of the monitoring sets to at least one other recorded measure and time from another monitoring set with both recorded measures relating to a same type of patient information recorded at different times; and an analysis module comparing the patient status change to a predetermined indicator threshold corresponding to same type of patient information as the recorded measures which were compared and to at least one stickiness threshold, the indicator threshold corresponding to a quantifiable physiological measure of a pathophysiology indicative of myocardial ischemia and the stickiness threshold corresponding to a diagnosis or treatment based on a duration and degree of the patient status change and determining an onset, a progression, a regression, and a status quo of myocardial ischemia dependent upon the comparison.
