Abstract
A mobile health system and method for performing health tests and for acquiring health-related personal data by a computer network and resources connected in the computer network. Communication means of the network include a health database having a database management system, a personal database, a plurality of mobile health test systems each having at least one automatically controllable robot that is designed and configured to perform a health-related test method, and a test system controller which is connected to the computer network via a first communication means. A plurality of terminals are connected to the computer network via second communication means.
Claims15
A method for performing health tests and collecting health-related personal data using resources connected via a computer network, the resources including:
- a health database system communicating with the computer network and including a database management system and a personal database, and
- a plurality of mobile health test systems, each mobile health test system having at least one automatically controllable robot configured to perform at least one health-related test procedure, and a test system controller communicating with the computer network via a first communication means,
- the method comprising:
- collecting personal data via the database management system, wherein the collected personal data includes personal location information of individuals stored in the personal database of the health database system;
- deploying at least one mobile health test system to a location based on the personal location information accumulated for several of the individuals;
- automatically sending information about an individualized on-site appointment at the deployed location of the at least one mobile health test system to a plurality of the individuals for which the personal location information has been accumulated;
- configuring the at least one deployed mobile health test system to perform the at least one health-related test procedure on at least one of the individuals to whom the individualized on-site appointment is assigned during the scheduled time period of the individualized on-site appointment;
- performing a laboratory diagnostic method to collect individualized test results from the individual health-related test procedures;
- and
- storing the individualized test results in the form of health-related personal data in the personal database of the health database using the database management system.

- the method comprising:
- collecting personal data via the database management system, wherein the collected personal data includes personal location information of individuals stored in the personal database of the health database system;
- deploying at least one mobile health test system to a location based on personal location information accumulated for several persons;
- automatically sending information about an individualized on-site appointment at the deployed location of the at least one mobile health test system to a plurality of persons;
- configuring the at least one deployed mobile health test system to perform the at least one health-related test procedure on at least one of the persons to whom the individualized on-site appointment is assigned during the scheduled time period of the individualized on-site appointment;
- performing a laboratory diagnostic method to collect individualized test results from the individual health-related test procedures;
- and
- storing the individualized test results in the form of health-related personal data in the personal database of the health database using the database management system;
- wherein the personal location information of individuals includes information that has been entered into the personal database via terminal devices connected to the computer network.
A mobile health test system, comprising:
- a counter area configured such that persons can contact at least one test apparatus of the mobile health test system;
- the at least one test apparatus, comprising:
- at least one input terminal, and
- at least one output terminal;
- at least one automatically controllable robot configured to automatically perform at least one sub-step of a health-related test procedure on a person positioned proximate the counter area;
- a test system controller;
- and
- a transmitting and receiving device configured to connect the test system controller via a first communication means to a computer network such that, in a connected state, personal data can be retrieved from, and written to, a personal database of a health database system connected to the computer network;
- the test system controller configured to perform a health-related test procedure using the at least one robot, taking into account the personal data of a person located in the counter area of the mobile health test system and the at least one sub-step that the at least one robot automatically performs during the performance of the health-related test procedure;
- wherein the mobile health test system is configured to:
- automatically send information about an individualized on-site appointment at a deployed location of the mobile health test system to a plurality of persons, and
- perform the at least one health-related test procedure on at least one of the plurality of persons to whom the individualized on-site appointment is assigned during a scheduled time period of the individualized on-site appointment.
