System for monitoring gastro-intestinal disorders

A system for monitoring gastro-intestinal disorders, comprising:

• a gastro-intestinal probe configured to perform gastro-esophageal content measurements of a patient;
• at least one sensor configured to measure a parameter of the patient, said parameter being dependent to pain and/or stress of the patient;
• a patient interface configured to receive inputs from the patient, said inputs corresponding to patient reported symptoms, PRS;
• a processor configured to:
• determine a set of pairs of values respectively corresponding to a set of different time intervals, each pair of values corresponding to a given time interval among the set of different time intervals comprises a first value and a second value,
• wherein, if an input from the patient corresponds to the given time interval, said first value is determined based on a measurement of the parameter corresponding to the given time interval and on the input from the patient corresponding to the given time interval, and
• wherein said second value is determined based on a measurement of gastro-esophageal content corresponding to the given time interval;
• and
• determine a level of gastro-intestinal disorder based on the determined set of pairs of values.

A method to monitor Gastro-intestinal disorders, comprising:

• receiving data representing gastro-esophageal content measurements of a patient;
• receiving data representing parameter measurements, said parameter being dependent to pain and/or stress of the patient;
• receiving data representing inputs from the patient, said inputs corresponding to patient reported symptoms, PRS;
• determining a set of pairs of values respectively corresponding to a set of different time intervals, each pair of values corresponding to a given time interval among the set of different time intervals comprises a first value and a second value,
• wherein, if data representing inputs from the patient represents an input corresponding to the given time interval, said first value is determined based on a data representing a measurement of the parameter corresponding to the given time interval and on data representing the input from the patient corresponding to the given time interval, and
• wherein said second value is determined based on data representing a measurement of gastro-esophageal content corresponding to the given time interval;
• and
• determining a level of gastro-intestinal disorder based on the determined set of pairs of values.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium encoded with executable instructions which, when executed, causes an apparatus comprising a processor operatively coupled with a memory, to perform a method to monitor gastro-intestinal disorders, comprising:

• receiving data representing gastro-esophageal content measurements of a patient;
• receiving data representing parameter measurements, said parameter being dependent to pain and/or stress of the patient;
• receiving data representing inputs from the patient, said inputs corresponding to patient reported symptoms, PRS;
• determining a set of pairs of values respectively corresponding to a set of different time intervals, each pair of values corresponding to a given time interval among the set of different time intervals comprises a first value and a second value,
• wherein, if data representing inputs from the patient represents an input corresponding to the given time interval, said first value is determined based on a data representing a measurement of the parameter corresponding to the given time interval and on data representing the input from the patient corresponding to the given time interval, and
• wherein said second value is determined based on data representing a measurement of gastro-esophageal content corresponding to the given time interval;
• and
• determining a level of gastro-intestinal disorder based on the determined set of pairs of values.

A computer apparatus, comprising:

• a communication interface configured to:
• receive data representing gastro-esophageal content measurements of a patient;
• receive data representing parameter measurements, said parameter being dependent to pain and/or stress of the patient;
• receive data representing inputs from the patient, said inputs corresponding to patient reported symptoms, PRS;
• the computer apparatus further comprising a processor configured to:
• determine a set of pairs of values respectively corresponding to a set of different time intervals, each pair of values corresponding to a given time interval among the set of different time intervals comprises a first value and a second value,
• wherein, if data representing inputs from the patient represents an input corresponding to the given time interval, said first value is determined based on a data representing a measurement of the parameter corresponding to the given time interval and on data representing the input from the patient corresponding to the given time interval, and
• wherein said second value is determined based on data representing a measurement of gastro-esophageal content corresponding to the given time interval;
• and
• determine a level of gastro-intestinal disorder based on the determined set of pairs of values.
