SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR ASSESSING MEDICAL RISK

摘要

A system and method for assessing the medical risk of a given outcome for a patient comprises obtaining test data from a given patient corresponding to at least one test marker for predicting the medical risk of a given outcome and obtaining at least one variable relating to the given patient and transforming the test data with the variable to produce transformed data for each test markers. A database of transformed data from previously assessed patients is provided and mean and standard deviation values are determined from the database in accordance with the actual occurrence of the given outcome for previously assessed patients. The transformed data is compared with the mean and standard deviation values to assess the likelihood of the given outcome for the given patient and the database is updated with the actual occurrence for the given patient, whereby the determined mean and standard deviation will be adjusted.
