Abstract
Techniques for data security are provided. Face data for a patient is received, where the face data is linked to an identifier of the patient. A suggested medical device is determined by processing the face data using a recommendation model. Therapy data stored in a first data store and equipment data stored in a second data store are identified based on the identifier, where the equipment data indicates an actual medical device that was provided to the patient. The suggested medical device, the therapy data, and the equipment data are associated.
Claims22
A method comprising:
- receiving face data for a first patient, wherein the face data is identifying of the first patient and is associated with a first identifier of the first patient;
- de-identifying the face data;
- determining a suggested medical device by processing at least one of the face data or the de-identified face data using a recommendation model;
- identifying, based on the first identifier, therapy data stored in a first data store;
- identifying, based on the first identifier, equipment data stored in a second data store, wherein the equipment data indicates an actual medical device that was provided to the first patient;
- generating linked de-identified data by linking the suggested medical device, the therapy data, the equipment data, and the de-identified face data in a third data store using the first identifier, wherein the linked de-identified data does not include the face data;
- and
- facilitating access to the linked de-identified data without enabling access to the face data.
A method, comprising:
- accessing, by a user device, a patient survey via a provided link for a first patient;
- providing a set of responses for the patient survey, wherein the set of responses facilitate selection of a mask for the first patient;
- generating identifying face data by performing a facial scan of the first patient using one or more cameras of the user device;
- generating de-identified face data based on de-identifying the identifying face data;
- transmitting the de-identified face data, along with the set of responses, to a mask selection component without providing access to the identifying face data, wherein:
- the mask selection component uses the de-identified face data and set of responses to select the mask for the first patient;
- linked de-identified data is generated by linking the de-identified face data with therapy data for the first patient and equipment data for the first patient;
- the identifying face data is not linked with the therapy data or the equipment data;
- and
- access to the linked de-identified data is facilitated without enabling access to the identifying face data.
A system, comprising:
- a user device configured to perform an operation comprising:
- collecting, from a first patient, survey data;
- and
- determining, using on one or more imaging devices, face data for the first patient;
- a first data store configured to store the survey data and the face data for the first patient;
- a second data store configured to store therapy data for the first patient, wherein the therapy data indicates patient compliance with one or more prescribed therapies;
- a third data store configured to store equipment data for the first patient, wherein the equipment data indicates an actual facial mask provided to the first patient;
- and
- a computing device configured to perform an operation comprising:
- selecting a suggested facial mask based on the face data;
- de-identifying the face data, such that the face data does not uniquely identify the first patient;
- generating linked de-identified data by linking the de-identified face data, the therapy data, the equipment data, and the suggested facial mask in a fourth data store, wherein the linked de-identified data does not include the face data;
- and
- facilitating access to the linked de-identified data without providing access to the face data.
