A health condition record of an individual is often organized in a data-centric manner, such as various forms of medical data, medical images, and text-based anecdotal information provided by caregivers and the individual. However, it may be difficult to identify significant health condition events from such representations. A health condition record organized in an event-oriented manner may facilitate assessments of the diagnosis and prognosis of the individual, the efficacy of caregivers, and the allocation of healthcare resources. The event-oriented health condition record may also be presented to caregivers and the individual by displaying health-related icons, which may facilitate the communication of health information in a language-independent manner.
