Multi-site, multi-subject journey observation decision support method and system

A method, carried out in a system for monitoring at least one patient, the method comprising:

• receiving, from a remote data acquisition system, imaging data of at least one patient, wherein the imaging data is acquired via at least one image sensor of the remote data acquisition system;
• aggregating the received imaging data for the at least one patient;
• analyzing the aggregated imaging data using one or more algorithms to determine one or more data values associated with the at least one patient;
• classifying the one or more data values determined from aggregated imaging data to determine a physiological state or a position of the at least one patient;
• and
• transmitting, to the remote data acquisition system, data corresponding to the determined physiological state or the position of the at least one patient;
• and
• wherein the data corresponding to the determined physiological state or the position of the at least one patient is displayed via a user interface of the remote data acquisition system.

A system for remotely monitoring a plurality of patients, the system comprising:

• a data acquisition system, comprising:
• a plurality of image sensors for sensing imaging data of a plurality of patients;
• a user interface for displaying data associated with the plurality of patients;
• a data processing system in communication with the data acquisition system, the data processing system comprising a processor and a computer-readable medium storing instructions that are operative upon execution by the processor to:
• receive, from the data acquisition system, the imaging data of the plurality of patients;
• identify, a first patient of the plurality of patients;
• register the first patient in memory;
• aggregate the received imaging data for the first patient of the plurality of patients, wherein aggregating includes aggregating imaging data for the first patient from each of the plurality of image sensors;
• analyze the aggregated imaging data for the first patient, using one or more algorithms, to determine one or more data values associated with the first patient;
• classify the one or more data values determined from aggregated imaging data of the first patient to determine a physiological state or a position of the first patient;
• and
• transmit, to the data acquisition system, data corresponding to the determined physiological state or the position of the first patient, wherein the determined physiological state or the position of the first patient is displayed via the user interface of the data acquisition system.
