Abstract
A method for diagnosing an impending multisystem failure in a patient, comprising steps of obtaining data of recorded speech of the patient, calculating an intensity function of the data across a plurality of frequencies, and determining the number of vibrations in the range of an octave in the recorded speech. A number of vibrations larger than four are indicative of an impending multisystem failure in the patient.

A method for diagnosing an impending multisystem failure in a patient, comprising steps of:
- a. obtaining data of recorded speech of the patient;
- b. calculating an intensity function of the data across a plurality of frequencies;
- and
- c. determining the number of vibrations in the range of an octave in the recorded speech;
- wherein said number of vibrations are larger than four is indicative of said impending multisystem failure in said patient.
A method for predicting a long term expected multisystem failure in a patient, comprising steps of:
- a. obtaining data of recorded speech of the patient;
- b. calculating an intensity function of said data across a plurality of frequencies;
- and
- c. searching for at least one crater feature in said intensity function;
- wherein the method additionally comprising step of:
- d. diagnosing said patient with a long term expected multisystem failure according to identification of said at least one crater feature in step (c).
A system for diagnosing a patient for an expected multisystem failure in a patient, comprising:
- a. at least one input apparatus, adapted to receive audible data of said patient's speech;
- b. at least one processing apparatus adapted to transfer said audible data to numerical data;
- the numerical data contains:
- (i) frequency of said audible data as a function of time;
- and (ii) the frequency's intensity;
- and
- c. at least one calculating apparatus adapted to calculate said intensity function from the numerical data;
- wherein more than 4 vibrations in an octave in said intensity function is predictable of an impending multisystem failure.
A system for diagnosing a patient for an expected multisystem failure in a patient, comprising:
- a. at least one input apparatus, adapted to receive audible data of said patient's speech;
- b. at least one processing apparatus adapted to transfer said audible data to numerical data;
- said numerical data contains:
- (i) frequency of the audible data as a function of time;
- and (ii) the frequency's intensity;
- and
- c. at least one calculating apparatus adapted to calculate an intensity function from said numerical data;
- wherein a crater feature in said intensity function is predictable of a long term expected multisystem failure.
