System and method for analyzing normalized patient voice feedback an automated collection and analysis patient care system

摘要

A system and method for analyzing normalized patient voice feedback in an automated collection and analysis patient care system is described. Device measures providing physiological measures collected by an implantable medical device on a substantially continuous basis are received for storage into a patient care record. Voice feedback spoken by an individual patient substantially contemporaneous to the collection of at least one set of the device measures is received. The voice feedback is processed into normalized quality of life measures for storage into the patient care record. The physiological measures and the quality of life measures stored in the patient care record are analyzed relative to at least one of other physiological measures and other quality of life measures to determine a patient status indicator.
