Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A graphical user interface provides clinical information in the form of a first health feed, patient-generated information in the form of a second health feed, and biometric surveillance from a peripheral device in a third health feed. The graphical user interface may provide improved access to patient-generated information to the provider and improved access to clinical information to the patient or caretaker for the patient. Additional health feeds may include data from peripheral devices, third-party sponsored applications, or other forms of health feedback.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. One or more non-transitory computer-storage media having computer-useable instructions embodied thereon that, when executed by a computing device, cause the computing device to display a graphical user interface that simultaneously displays a plurality of selectable options corresponding to at least a patient and one or more family members of the patient and the simultaneous display of multiple health feeds upon selection of one of the plurality of selectable options, the graphical user interface comprising: a display area configured to simultaneously present at least a first selectable option of the plurality of selectable options corresponding to the patient and at least a second selectable option of the plurality of selectable options corresponding to the one or more family members of the patient, wherein selection of at least one of the plurality of selectable options initiates the simultaneous display of a first, second, third, fourth, and fifth health feed, wherein: the first health feed comprises provider-generated clinical information for the patient or the one or more family members of the patient, the second health feed comprises patient-generated information for the patient or the one or more family members of the patient, the third health feed comprises peripheral device information for the patient or the one or more family members of the patient, the fourth health feed comprises clinical feedback on the patient-generated information of the second health feed, and the fifth health feed comprises provider feedback information on the peripheral device information for the patient or the one or more family members of the patient. 2. The graphical user interface of claim 1 , wherein the peripheral device information comprises information provided by a scale, a heart rate monitor, or a blood-glucose meter. 3. One or more non-transitory computer-storage media having computer executable instructions embodied thereon, that, when executed, implements a method to provide health feeds with biometric surveillance for a patient and one or more family members of the patient, the method comprising: receiving provider inputs regarding the patient or the one or more family members of the patient; storing the provider inputs; determining provider information from the provider inputs to display as a first health feed; receiving patient inputs for the patient or the one or more family members of the patient; storing the patient inputs; determining patient information from the patient inputs to display as a second health feed; receiving peripheral device inputs for the patient or the one or more family members of the patient from at least one peripheral device; storing the peripheral device inputs; determining, peripheral device information from the peripheral device inputs to display as a third health feed; using at least one of the provider inputs, the patient inputs, or the peripheral device inputs, determining one or more recommendations or treatments for the patient or the one or more family members of the patient; and simultaneously displaying on a single user interface a plurality of selectable options, at least a first selectable option of the plurality of selectable options corresponding to the patient and at least a second selectable option of the plurality of selectable options corresponding to the one or more family members of the patient, wherein selection of at least one of the plurality of selectable options initiates the simultaneous display of the first health feed, the second health feed, the third health feed, and the one or more recommendations or treatments. 4. The method of claim 3 , wherein the at least one peripheral device comprises a scale, a heart rate monitor, or a blood-glucose monitor. 5. The method of claim 3 , wherein determining provider information to display to the patient comprises determining based on patient rules provider information to display to the patient.
