Abstract
Chronotherapeutic dosing can include receiving, using a processor, sensor data from a sensor for a user, wherein the sensor data is collected subsequent to the user starting a regimen for a medication, determining, using the processor, a biological marker from the sensor data, wherein the biological marker is correlated with the medication, and comparing, using the processor, the biological marker with an expected state of the biological marker based upon a dose time of the medication. Chronotherapeutic dosing can also include providing, using the processor, a notification indicating a result of the comparing.
Claims37
A system for chronotherapeutic dosing, comprising:
- a sensor configured to generate sensor data;
- a memory storing instructions;
- and
- a processor coupled to the sensor and the memory, wherein the processor, in response to executing the instructions, is configured to initiate executable operations including:
- receiving sensor data from the sensor for a user, wherein the sensor data is collected subsequent to the user starting a regimen for a medication;
- determining a biological marker from the sensor data, wherein the biological marker is correlated with the medication;
- comparing the biological marker with an expected state of the biological marker based upon a dose time of the medication;
- and
- providing a notification indicating a result of the comparing.
A method of chronotherapeutic dosing, comprising:
- receiving, using a processor, sensor data from a sensor for a user, wherein the sensor data is collected subsequent to the user starting a regimen for a medication;
- determining, using the processor, a biological marker from the sensor data, wherein the biological marker is correlated with the medication;
- comparing, using the processor, the biological marker with an expected state of the biological marker based upon a dose time of the medication;
- and
- providing, using the processor, a notification indicating a result of the comparing.
A computer program product comprising a computer readable storage medium having program code stored thereon, the program code executable by a processor to perform operations for chronotherapeutic dosing comprising:
- receiving sensor data from a sensor for a user, wherein the sensor data is collected subsequent to the user starting a regimen for a medication;
- determining a biological marker from the sensor data, wherein the biological marker is correlated with the medication;
- comparing the biological marker with an expected state of the biological marker based upon a dose time of the medication;
- and
- providing a notification indicating a result of the comparing.
A system for evaluating adherence to a regimen for a medication, comprising:
- a sensor configured to generate sensor data;
- a memory storing instructions;
- and
- a processor coupled to the sensor and the memory, wherein the processor, in response to executing the instructions, is configured to initiate executable operations including:
- receiving sensor data from the sensor for a user, wherein the sensor data is collected subsequent to the user starting a regimen for a medication;
- determining an updated state of a biological marker from the sensor data, wherein the biological marker is correlated with the medication;
- comparing the updated state of the biological marker with a baseline for the biological marker to detect a change in the biological marker;
- determining that the user missed a dose of the medication in response to detecting the change in the biological marker during a time period correlated with a dose time of the medication;
- and
- providing a notification indicating a missed dose of the medication.
