Abstract:
A system and method for verifying patient identity including a heart monitor, a memory, and a processor. The heart monitor may be adapted to collect a baseline ECG signal from a patient and a monitored ECG signal from the patient. The memory may be in electrical communication with the heart monitor and adapted to store a plurality of baseline statistical characteristics of the baseline ECG signal and a plurality of monitored statistical characteristics of the monitored ECG signal. The processor may be in electrical communication with the memory and adapted to compare the plurality of baseline statistical characteristics to the plurality of monitored statistical characteristics and determine a likelihood of patient match. The heart monitor may be configured for further collection of the monitored ECG signal if the likelihood of patient match is greater than a threshold level.

Claim (Index 16):
A system for verifying patient identity comprising:\n a heart monitor adapted to collect a baseline ECG signal from a patient and a monitored ECG signal from the patient; a memory in electrical communication with the heart monitor and adapted to store a plurality of baseline statistical characteristics of the baseline ECG signal and a plurality of monitored statistical characteristics of the monitored ECG signal; and a processor in electrical communication with the memory and adapted to compare the plurality of baseline statistical characteristics to the plurality of monitored statistical characteristics and determine a likelihood of patient match; wherein the heart monitor is configured to be enabled for further collection of the monitored ECG signal if the likelihood of patient match is greater than a threshold level configurable by a user; wherein each of the plurality of baseline statistical characteristics is calculated by the processor based on one or more waveform characteristics of the baseline ECG signal; wherein the plurality of baseline statistical characteristics includes at least one of mean P-P interval, R-R interval, or T-T interval and the mean R-T interval and corresponding standard deviations of the baseline ECG signal; wherein between 30 and 50 percent of the likelihood of patient match is determined by comparing the baseline mean R-T interval to a monitored mean R-T interval; wherein the heart monitor is configured to be remotely enabled if the likelihood of patient match is lower than the threshold level; wherein the baseline statistical characteristics are utilized to produce a curve of proportionality across a variable heart rate; and wherein the monitored statistical characteristics are associated with a monitored heart rate and compared to the curve of proportionality at the value of the monitored heart rate to determine the likelihood of patient match.
