Data processing system and method for determining the risk of a transfer of an individual to the emergency department

A data processing system to determine a risk factor of an imminent transfer of an individual to an emergency department, comprising:

• a computer server comprising a microprocessor and a computer memory;
• a first database to store a plurality of status sheets for each person of a group of people;
• a second database to store dates of transfers of said group of people to the emergency department, each status sheet being dated and comprising a list of monitoring indicators, each monitoring indicator having a value selected from a list of two predetermined values according to a status of a corresponding person;
• a portable device to fill a status sheet of the individual;
• and
• the microprocessor configured to:
• generate parameters of an automatic learning computer algorithm from the status sheets and the dates of transfers of the group of people to the emergency department;
• determine the risk factor by analysis of a plurality of status sheets of the individual using the automatic learning algorithm whose parameters have been previously generated, each status sheet of the individual being established at distinct time points;
• and
• generate a warning when the risk factor exceeds a predetermined threshold.
