Personal customized guidance for treating patients

A computer system for treating a medical condition via individual customized cognitive guidance, the computer system comprising:

• a memory medium comprising program instructions;
• a bus coupled to the memory medium;
• and
• a processor, for executing the program instructions, coupled to a cognitive and customized assistant engine via the bus that when executing the program instructions causes the system to:
• generate a current interactive and customized diagnosis object (ICDO) comprising a treatment schedule for a patient by combining a set of previous ICDOs from the patient, wherein each ICDO has a structure which defines elements that are used to diagnose a symptom of the patient and match the patient with a treatment;
• monitor a status of the patient in real time via an internet of things network associated with the patient that automatically collects and enters patient status data into a current ICDO of the patient, the current ICDO comprising set of individual treatment technique preferences of the patient machine learned from historical events of the patient that differed and that complied with historic treatment schedules of the patient, the internet of things network comprising at least one wearable sensor that transmits data to the current ICDO through the network, the internet of things network being configured to detect an actual event of the patient differing from the treatment schedule, the actual event compromising an action by the patient that deviates from the treatment schedule, wherein some of the previous ICDOs from the patient are deleted over time as the patient makes progress with treatment of the medical condition, leaving a set of currently valid ICDOs from which the current ICDO is derived;
• modify, in real time, the treatment schedule responsive to the differing event by adjusting the current ICDO of the patient according to a learned set of rules derived from the set of currently valid ICDOs to compensate for the differing event, the learned set of rules comprising the set of individual treatment technique preferences of the patient and, the adjusting comprising exchanging one element of the treatment schedule for a new element compromising an action by the patient that brings the patient into alignment with a net effect of the initial treatment schedule, the exchanged element being optimized for treatment effectiveness, patient comfort, and historical successfulness based on the treatment technique preferences of the patient;
• and
• provide the modified treatment schedule to the patient in real time.

A computer program product for treating a medical condition via individual customized cognitive guidance, the computer program product comprising a computer readable hardware storage device, and program instructions stored on the computer readable hardware storage device, to:
