Personalized medical content recommendation

A computer program product comprising a non-transitory data storage medium with logic code embedded therein, wherein execution of the logic code by a computer causes the computer to:

• access, from a data storage medium, a patient's medical profile, a concept or relationship relating to the patient's medical profile, and medical content relevant to the concept or relationship,
• wherein the concept or relationship is determined worthy of attention and possible reporting to the patient due to recognizing a level of risk to the patient based on an analysis of the patient's medical profile, the concept or relationship and the relevant medical content;
• determine, via one or more processors, a score for the concept or relationship to the patient's medical profile;
• enhance, via one or more processors, the score using a medical context score wherein the enhanced medical context score is determined based on a proximity measure for the concept or relationship and potential intersections formed by the concept or relationship;
• enhance, via one or more processors, the score with an additional knowledge score wherein the enhanced additional knowledge score is determined based on one or more risk levels associated with the concept or relationship and additional medical knowledge that is obtained by searching external sources for medical content relevant to the concept or relationship;
• and
• recommend medical content with respect to a patient medical profile based on the enhanced scores,
• wherein the medical content is sorted in a first order according to level of risk to the patient.

A system for personalized medical content recommendation, comprising:

• a processor adapted to access, from a data storage medium, a patient's medical profile, a concept or relationship relating to the patient's medical profile, and medical content relevant to the concept or relationship,
• wherein the concept or relationship is determined worthy of attention and possible reporting to the patient due to recognizing a level of risk to the patient based on an analysis of the patient's medical profile, the concept or relationship and the relevant medical content;
• a processor adapted to determine a score for the concept or relationship to the patient's medical profile;
• a processor adapted to enhance the score using a medical context score wherein the enhanced medical context score is determined based on a proximity measure between the concept or relationship and potential intersections formed by the concept or relationship;
• a processor adapted to enhance the score with an additional knowledge score wherein the enhanced additional knowledge score is determined based on one or more risk levels associated with the concept or relationship and additional medical knowledge that is obtained by searching external sources for medical content relevant to the concept or relationship;
• and
• a processor adapted to recommend medical content with respect to a patient medical profile based on the enhanced medical context and additional knowledge scores,
• wherein the medical content is sorted in a first order according to level of risk to the patient.

A method of providing a service to a customer over a network, the service comprising:

• retrieving, from a non-transitory data storage medium, a patient's medical profile, a concept or relationship relating to the patient's medical profile, and medical content relevant to the concept or relationship, using one or more processors,
• wherein the concept or relationship is determined worthy of attention and possible reporting to the patient due to recognizing a level of risk to the patient based on an analysis of the patient's medical profile, the concept or relationship and the relevant medical content;
• determining, via one or more processors, a score for the concept or relationship to the patient's medical profile;
• enhancing, via one or more processors, the score using a medical context score wherein the enhanced medical context score is determined based on a proximity measure between the concept or relationship and potential intersections formed by the concept or relationship;
• enhancing, via one or more processors, the score with an additional knowledge score wherein the enhanced additional knowledge score is determined based on one or more risk levels associated with the concept or relationship and additional medical knowledge that is obtained by searching external sources for medical content relevant to the concept or relationship;
• recommending medical content with respect to a patient medical profile based on the enhanced medical context and additional knowledge scores,
• wherein the medical content is sorted in a first order according to level of risk to the patient.
