Abstract
Embodiments of this invention relate to electronic therapeutic systems. More specifically, this invention relates to computer systems and computer-implemented methods for monitoring a therapeutic attribute, and for determining the effectiveness of electronic therapeutic systems, namely, software applications and associated components designed to provide a therapeutic result, in providing changes to the therapeutic attribute to reach a user's desired therapeutic objective.
Claims20
A computing system comprising:
- a processor;
- and
- a memory including programming that, when executed by the processor, causes the computing system to:
- periodically receive data generated by a plurality of electronic therapeutic systems, wherein the data include the status of at least one therapeutic attribute, and wherein each of the plurality of electronic therapeutic systems includes a therapeutic objective;
- monitor changes in the at least one therapeutic attribute over time;
- and
- compare the effectiveness of two or more electronic therapeutic systems sharing the same therapeutic objective at creating a desired change in the at least one therapeutic attribute over time.
A computer-implemented method comprising:
- receiving data generated by a plurality of electronic therapeutic systems, wherein the data include the status of at least one therapeutic attribute;
- monitoring changes in the at least one therapeutic attribute over time;
- and
- comparing the effectiveness of two or more electronic therapeutic systems at creating a desired change in the at least one therapeutic attribute over time,
- wherein the data is received by a computing system communicatively coupled to the plurality of electronic therapeutic systems.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising stored contents that configure a computing system to:
- periodically receive data generated by a plurality of electronic therapeutic systems, each electronic therapeutic system including a therapeutic objective, a device component, an operating system component hosted on the device component, and a software application component accessible by the device component, and wherein the data include the status of at least one therapeutic attribute, personal characteristics of users of the plurality of electronic therapeutic systems, and identification of the device component, the operating system component and the software application component;
- monitor changes in the at least one therapeutic attribute over time;
- identify correlations between changes in the at least one therapeutic attribute and differences in the device component, operating system component, software application component, or personal characteristics of users of the plurality of electronic therapeutic systems;
- and
- compare the effectiveness of two or more electronic therapeutic systems sharing the same therapeutic objective at creating a desired change in the at least one therapeutic attribute over time.
