BACKGROUND
Digital health and predictive analytics have gained significant attention in recent years as tools for improving patient care, particularly in remote and home-based health monitoring. Traditional healthcare models primarily rely on periodic clinical visits and subjective self-reporting, often missing critical early signs of health deterioration.
Existing remote monitoring solutions have attempted to address this challenge through various approaches, including standalone Electronic patient recorded outcome measures (ePROM) platforms, wearable device-based tracking systems, and Al-driven predictive models. Studies such as the PRE-MACE initiative have demonstrated the feasibility of integrating biometrics, biomarkers, and patient-reported data for health event prediction. Similarly, advances in digital medicine have enabled continuous monitoring using wearable biosensors and mobile applications. However, these solutions often face critical limitations including limited predictive accuracy due to small sample sizes, and incomplete clinical profiling. Additionally, many current systems lack real-time analytics and early warning capabilities, reducing their effectiveness in pre-emptive health intervention.
Therefore, in light of the foregoing discussion, there exists a need to overcome the aforementioned drawbacks.

Throughout the present disclosure, the phrase "system for monitoring health" or "system" refers to a comprehensive arrangement designed to facilitate the assessment and management of health of a person or a patient over a predefined period of time. The system integrates various components, including a user device, a wearable device, a software application, and a processing arrangement, to capture, analyse, and report health-related data. The system is configured to utilize artificial intelligence (Al) algorithms to process health-related data obtained from distinct sources, namely the objective physiological data and the subjective comprehensive health data, and generate the predictive health report. The system is further capable of transmitting the predictive health report to relevant stakeholders, such as healthcare professionals, for subsequent analysis and decision-making. The healthcare professional refers to the medical practitioner who reviews the predictive health report and provides treatment or care recommendations. The system supports healthcare professionals by providing accurate and timely health assessments.
Herein, the term "user" refers to an individual whose health is being monitored by the system. The user also wears the wearable device, which collects physiological data related to the user's health. However, the user may be a caregiver of the patient, in case the patient is incapacitated. However, in such cases the patient is required to wear the wearable device, and the caregiver is authorized to provide, via the user interface, the information on behalf of the patient or by carefully monitoring the patient (such as the incapacitated patient).
The term "health" refers to the physiological and psychological state of a user, which is monitored and assessed by the system. Health is represented by measurable physiological data, such as heart rate, blood pressure, oxygen saturation, activity levels, sleep patterns, ECG, and blood glucose concentration, as well as subjective comprehensive health data, such as symptoms and signs associated with a medical condition. Additionally, health is represented by additional factors such as clinical data associated with the patient, such as Radiographs (X-rays), diagnostic scans (including ultrasound , CT, MRI, PET scans). Moreover, in addition to the clinical data, patient demographic data, environmental data (surrounding temperature, altitude, etc) also contribute to the overall evaluation of health of a patient or a group of people in a society.
Health is the primary focus of the system for monitoring health, and the system is designed to provide insights and recommendations to improve or maintain the health of the user. Herein, the health is generally associated with a patient or a subject complaining of a certain symptom associated with a medical potential condition for which he/she is not yet diagnosed. Optionally, health may be associated with an overall well-being of an individual, and comprise physical health (physiological state of the body), mental health (psychological and emotional well-being), emotional health (feelings), social health (meaningful relationships and interacting effectively within a community), post-surgical or recovery health (healing of a wound, infections, and so on), chronic disease health (long-term conditions such as diabetes, hypertension, or cardiovascular diseases), preventive health (potential health risks before they develop into serious conditions), lifestyle health (daily habits, such as diet, exercise, and sleep), environmental health (external factors, such as living conditions and exposure to pollutants), and community health (well-being of groups or populations rather than individuals).
The system comprises the software application comprising the user interface and the processing arrangement. The term "software application" is a digital platform within the system that facilitates the interaction between the user and the system for monitoring the health of the user or patient. Moreover, the software application also enables the synchronization of physiological data from the wearable device with the system.
In an embodiment, the system further comprises a user device configured to run the software application thereon, wherein the user interacts with the system via the user interface hosted on the software application. Typically, the software application runs on a user device that facilitates interaction between the user and the system for monitoring health. The user interface is a component of the software application that facilitates interaction between the user and the system for monitoring health of the user. The user interface is configured to receive inputs and transmit output. In this regard, the user interface receives user inputs, comprehensive health data, such as symptoms, signs, and multimedia indicative of a medical condition. The user interface ensures that the system is user-friendly and accessible to both patients and healthcare professionals.
In an embodiment, the system further comprises the wearable device that is configured to be worn by the user to measure physiological data of the user, wherein the wearable device comprises a sensor arrangement configured to measure the physiological data selected from a group comprising at least one of: heart rate, blood pressure, oxygen saturation, activity levels, sleep patterns, ECG, blood glucose concentration. The term "wearable device" refers to a device that is equipped with a sensor arrangement to collect physiological data of the patient. The wearable device is communicably coupled to the user device running the software application, enabling the transmission of physiological data to the processing arrangement. The term "physiological data" refers to objective health-related metrics collected by the wearable device. Physiological data includes measurable parameters such as heart rate, blood pressure, oxygen saturation, activity levels, sleep patterns, ECG, and blood glucose concentration.
The processing arrangement is a computational component of the software application that is configured to analyse the input received via the user interface as well as the wearable device using an artificial intelligence algorithm. The term "processing arrangement" refers to programmable and/or non-programmable components configured to execute one or more software applications for storing, processing, sharing data and/or set of instructions. It will be appreciated that the "processing arrangement" refers to "one processing arrangement" in some implementations, and "a plurality of processing arrangements" in other implementations. In cases where the processing arrangement is a plurality of processing arrangements, the plurality of processing arrangements is communicably coupled to each other via a communication network. Optionally, the processing arrangement is a set of one or more hardware components or a multi-processor system, depending on a particular implementation. More optionally, the processing arrangement includes, for example, a component included within an electronic communications network. Additionally, the processing arrangement includes one or more data processing facilities for storing, processing, sharing data and/or a set of instructions. Optionally, the processing arrangement includes functional components, for example, a processor, a memory, a network adapter and so forth.
Throughout the present disclosure, the term "communication network" refers to a network of interconnected programmable and/or non-programmable components that are configured to facilitate data communication between one or more electronic devices and/or databases, such as the wearable device, user device, multimedia unit and the processing arrangement or software application, whether available or known at the time of filing or as later developed. Furthermore, the communication network may include, but is not limited to, one or more peer-to-peer network, a hybrid peer-to-peer network, local area networks (LANs), radio access networks (RANs), metropolitan area networks (MANS), wide area networks (WANs), all or a portion of a public network such as the global computer network known as the Internet, a private network, a cellular network and any other communication system or systems at one or more locations. Furthermore, the processing arrangement facilitates communication between the multimedia unit or user device and the software application over the communication network, likely to execute tasks related to the system's function.
The processing arrangement is configured to receive the physiological data from the wearable device, communicably coupled to the processing arrangement, and the comprehensive health data from the user interface. The term "comprehensive health data" refers to subjective health-related information obtained through the user interface. Herein, said subjective health-related information comprises structured and unstructured data types that contribute to a holistic understanding of a patient's health. Typically, the comprehensive health data comprises clinical data and health data. The health data includes patient demographic data, environmental data, and other contextual information that may influence health outcomes. Typically, the comprehensive health data may be provided by the user, received from a storage unit, or both. In an example, the user may submit their self-assessments, namely, user-assessment data, via ePROM. In another example, the system may integrate with patient health databases (such as electronic health records (EHRs)) to obtain a wide range of clinical data.
Optionally, the clinical data comprises medical history, diagnoses, medications, allergies, immunization records, laboratory results, radiology/diagnostic images (e.g., X-rays, CT scans, MRIs, PET scans, ultrasound), vital signs, clinical notes, pathological data (e.g., blood tests, pathology reports), and so on. Beneficially, the clinical data provides a detailed medical background and context for the patient's current health status. It is essential for understanding chronic conditions, past treatments, and ongoing medical needs.
Optionally, the health data comprises demographics (age, gender, etc.), environmental data and contextual data that may influence health outcomes. Herein, the environmental data includes information about the patient's surroundings, such as temperature, altitude, air quality, and other environmental factors. In an example, altitude can affect oxygen saturation levels, and air quality can influence respiratory conditions. Optionally, the environmental data may be automatically gathered from the user's smartphone sensors (e.g., GPS for altitude) or external APIs (e.g., weather data). Optionally, data from smartphone may also include accelerometer readings, step counts, and other activity metrics, similar to the wearable device data. Moreover, data from smartphones may also provide metadata such as timestamps, geolocation, and device usage patterns. Beneficially, metadata helps in tracking trends and patterns over time, ensuring that the algorithm has a complete picture of the patient's health and activity levels.
The contextual data may include subjective information, namely, user-assessment data, provided by the patient or their caregiver (collectively, user), that includes symptoms, signs, and responses to electronic patient-reported outcome measures (ePROMs). Optionally, the contextual data may also include multimedia inputs like images, videos, or audio recordings indicative of a medical condition, as well as responses to electronic patient-reported outcome measures (ePROMs).
In other words, data collected from EHRs (which can include demographics, medical history, diagnoses, medications, allergies, immunisation records, laboratory results, radiology images, vital signs, clinical notes) and any records with regards to their health collected from care homes if they are in care homes, along with the ePROMS, metadata, and data collected via wearable devices, or objective information submitted by patient or a carer/ca regiver thereof such as their Blood pressure, heart rate etc, if they do not have a wearable device and may need to manually input it into the software application, are used to capture the overall health status of the patient.
Herein, both the wearable device and the user device are communicably coupled to the processing arrangement. This connection enables the transmission of physiological data and comprehensive health data to the processing arrangement for analysis.
Moreover, the processing arrangement is configured to combine the physiological data and the comprehensive health data into a unified dataset. In this regard, the processing arrangement merges the objective physiological data and the subjective comprehensive health data into a single dataset for analysis. This integration ensures that the subjective and objective aspects of a user's health are considered together, providing a more comprehensive and accurate representation of the user's overall health status. It may be appreciated that by combining the datasets, the system can identify patterns that might be missed when the data is analysed separately, leading to more accurate and reliable predictive health insights. For example, a sudden increase in heart rate (objective data) combined with a user-reported symptom of chest pain (subjective data) can provide a stronger indication of a potential cardiac issue than analysing either dataset independently.
Moreover, the unified dataset allows the Al algorithm to learn complex relationships between the subjective and objective health indicators, improving the quality of the predictive health insights and early warnings. On the contrary, two distinct datasets require independent analysis, which may lead to inefficiencies and a lack of synergy in the insights generated. Furthermore, the unified dataset simplifies the data processing workflow by eliminating the need for separate analysis pipelines for the objective and subjective data, thereby, reducing computational overhead and ensuring that the system operates efficiently in real time.
Furthermore, the processing arrangement is configured to analyse the unified dataset using the artificial intelligence (Al) algorithm, and generate the predictive health report based on the analysis by the Al algorithm, the predictive health report comprising predictive health insights. The unified dataset serves as the input for the Al algorithm to generate predictive health insights. Beneficially, the unified dataset is processed as a single entity, allowing the Al algorithm to analyse correlations, patterns, and trends across both data types simultaneously. The Al algorithm analyses the unified dataset to generate predictive health insights, which are used to provide recommendations, guidance, and alert notifications. Optionally, the Al algorithm analyses the unified dataset using advanced techniques such as stochastic regression analysis and deep learning.

In an embodiment, the user device further comprises a multimedia unit for capturing the multimedia, over a predefined period of time, and wherein the multimedia comprises at least one of: an audio, an image, a video. The "multimedia unit" refers to the hardware and software components of the user device (e.g., smartphone, tablet, or wearable device) that enable capturing of multimedia data. The multimedia unit works in conjunction with the software application to ensure that the captured images, video or audio are suitable for analysis. The multimedia unit is essential for providing the raw data required for the processing arrangement to perform Al-driven analysis. Herein, the audio refers to sounds that may indicate a health condition, such as breathing sounds for respiratory issues, voice recordings for speech or mental health analysis, or heart sounds for cardiovascular monitoring. The images of photos provide static information of physical conditions, such as wounds, rashes, or swelling, to monitor healing or detect complications over a predefined period of time. Short video clips provide dynamic information about a condition, such as movement limitations, gait abnormalities, or visible symptoms that change over time. Beneficially, inclusion of different multimedia types ensures that the system can capture a wide range of health-related data, both static (e.g., images) and dynamic (e.g., videos and audio).
The multimedia unit may be implemented as an imaging unit, that is configured to record or upload images, or videos related to a patient's health condition. Alternatively, or additionally, the multimedia unit may be implemented as an audio unit, that is configured to record or upload audio related to a patient's health condition. It may be appreciated that such recording of the audio, image or video is repeated over a predefined period of time, namely at specific intervals or over a set duration, ensuring consistent and relevant data collection for analysis. In an example, a patient recovering from surgery might use the multimedia unit to take daily photos of a surgical wound to track healing progress. In another example, a user with a respiratory condition might record audio of their breathing sounds over a week to monitor changes.
In an embodiment, the multimedia unit is associated with any of: a mobile device, the software application, and wherein the multimedia unit is implemented as an Al-aided multimedia unit.

In this regard, the image processing module functions by analysing the captured multimedia images or videos, and applying Al-driven adjustments to correct issues such as poor lighting, shadows, glare, positioning object(s) of interest, or other inconsistencies that may arise due to environmental factors or user error during image or video capture. This ensures that the images or videos are of sufficient quality for accurate analysis by the system's processing arrangement and artificial intelligence algorithm. Beneficially, the Al-aided image processing module allows the system to dynamically adapt to different lighting conditions and user environments. For example, the Al-aided image processing modules can automatically adjust brightness, contrast, and colour balance or remove noise from the images, thus ensuring that the captured images or videos remain consistent and reliable, regardless of the conditions in which they are captured.
Furthermore, the system continuously updates and refines the predictive health insights based on the received physiological data and the comprehensive health data. Herein, continuous updating and refinement of the predictive health insights refers to the iterative process by which the Al algorithm updates the predictive health insights based on new data received from the wearable device and the user interface, ensuring that the insights remain accurate and relevant over time.
In an embodiment, the Al algorithm is trained on a dataset of medical conditions and a dataset of symptoms and signs associated with corresponding medical conditions used by deep learning techniques employed by the Al algorithm to compare the received physiological data and comprehensive health data. The Al algorithm is trained on a dataset of medical conditions and a dataset of symptoms and signs to analyse the received physiological data and comprehensive health data. The dataset of medical conditions and a dataset of symptoms and signs are the training data used by the artificial intelligence algorithm. These datasets enable the Al algorithm to learn and improve its ability to analyse the incoming multimedia and determine health condition of an individual.
The dataset of medical conditions comprises a wide range of medical conditions, such as cardiovascular diseases, respiratory illnesses, post-surgical complications, and chronic diseases like diabetes or hypertension. Each condition is associated with specific physiological patterns and symptoms.

As mentioned above, the metadata provides additional data about the specific symptoms and signs associated with the medical conditions. Optionally, such metadata is obtained from published data.
Optionally, the Al algorithm is trained using deep learning techniques, which involve feeding these datasets with labelled data into neural networks so it can identify and classify specific characteristics in new, unseen data. With regards to training, the physiological data and the user assessment data are pre-processed to ensure consistency and quality. The datasets are used to recognize patterns and correlations between physiological data, symptoms, and medical conditions. Such patterns are used to train/learn how specific combinations of data points (e.g., elevated heart rate, low oxygen saturation, and user-reported fatigue) correspond to particular health conditions.
Optionally, the trained Al algorithm is validated and tested on separate datasets to evaluate its accuracy, precision, and ability to generalize to new data. By training on a dataset of medical conditions, the Al algorithm can accurately assess or predict a certain medical condition, detect complications, and provide actionable insights. For example, it can identify whether a wound is healing normally or if there are signs of delayed healing or infection. Additionally, training on a dataset of symptoms and signs enables the Al algorithm to detect and identify medical conditions and/or comorbidities associated therewith. This is particularly important for early intervention, as different symptoms may be associated with different stages of a medical condition. This holistic approach improves the accuracy and reliability of the health assessment, and provides comprehensive assessments, detect medical conditions early, and support personalized health care management.
In an embodiment, the Al algorithm employs deep learning techniques to compare the received data against the dataset of medical conditions and the dataset of symptoms and signs.

Herein, the multiple users may include, the user (patient and/or caregiver), healthcare professional (nurse or physician), superuser (administrator or a third party). Via the interactive platform, the patients can connect with healthcare professionals to receive personalized advice and recommendations. Moreover, patients can share their experiences, challenges, and tips with others who are going through similar situations, creating a sense of community and emotional support (peer support group). Furthermore, healthcare providers can exchange insights, discuss complex cases, and collaborate on best practices for health monitoring that may be accessible to all the registered stakeholders of the interactive platform. Optionally, the interactive platform leverages communication tools such as chat functionality (to engage in real-time text-based conversations with healthcare providers or other patients), video/audio calls (for consultations, enabling remote discussions about health monitoring), discussion forums (to share experiences and learn from others), and so on. Moreover, the interactive platform provides access to educational materials, such as articles, videos, and tutorials on best practices for health monitoring and maintaining; FAQs addressing common concerns about health monitoring and management; and guidelines for capturing and uploading multimedia, to registered users and other stakeholders.

The nursing dashboard is tailored for nursing staff to monitor and manage patient care on a day-to-day basis, for real-time alerts for patients requiring immediate attention, access to patient health data and recovery progress, tools for documenting observations and updating patient records, and communication tools for coordinating with doctors and other healthcare providers. Superuser dashboard is designed for advanced users, such as system administrators or senior healthcare professionals, who require full access to the platform's features and data. Such full access to all patient data, dashboards, and system settings allows for customizing the platform (e.g., adding new features, modifying workflows), and managing and troubleshooting technical issues. The superuser dashboard provides advanced analytics and reporting tools for system-wide insights.
In an embodiment, the software application is further configured to be operated in multiple languages, and wherein the predictive health report is accessible in multiple languages. By supporting multiple languages, the software application ensures that both the user interface (III) and the predictive health report can be understood and utilized effectively by users who speak different languages and ensures accessibility for diverse users. This includes translating all aspects of the user interface and functionality into multiple languages. In this regard, users can select their preferred language during the initial setup of the application or change it later in the settings. Alternatively, the software application may automatically detect the user's language based on their device settings or location and provide a default option. In this regard, the software application leverages a GPS or related functionality. Additionally, all elements of the user interface, such as menus, buttons, instructions, and notifications, are translated into the selected language. For example, instructions for capturing multimedia (e.g., "Hold your phone steady and ensure good lighting") are displayed in the user's chosen language. The predictive health report, which is generated by the Al algorithm, is also accessible in multiple languages. This ensures that both patients and healthcare providers can understand the predictive health report, regardless of their linguistic background. For example, if the predictive health report includes a recommendation like "Signs of infection detected. Consult a healthcare provider immediately," it will be translated into the user's preferred language. Similarly, healthcare providers who speak different languages can access the report in their preferred language, ensuring clear communication and understanding of the health condition. This is particularly useful in multilingual healthcare settings or when patients and healthcare providers speak different languages.
In this regard, advanced language processing technologies and translation frameworks are employed by the software application. The multilingual translation process involves employing a database of translations for all III elements, instructions, and report content in multiple languages. This database is regularly updated to ensure accuracy and consistency. Moreover, the software application employs dynamic translation modules to dynamically translate content based on the user's selected language. Furthermore, the software application employs integration with Al-powered translation tools, such as neural machine translation (NMT) systems, to provide high-quality translations for complex or context-specific content. Furthermore, the software application leverages customization for regional variations in language. For example, English may be customized for US, UK, or Australian users. Spanish may be adapted for users in Spain, Mexico, or Latin America. Beneficially, by allowing users to operate the application and access predictive health reports in their preferred language, this feature enhances patient engagement, improves communication in multilingual healthcare settings, and promotes inclusivity.
In an embodiment, the processing arrangement is further configured to integrate with at least one of: electronic health records (EHR.), telehealth platforms, for transmitting the predictive health report with a healthcare professional for subsequent analysis. The processing arrangement generates the predictive health report based on the analysis and transmits the predictive health report to the user interface or integrated platforms, such as electronic health records or telehealth platforms, for review by healthcare professionals, facilitating further analysis, decision-making, and treatment planning.
Electronic Health Records (EHR) are digital systems used by healthcare providers to store and manage patient medical information, including medical history, diagnoses, treatments, and test results. Integration with EHR allows the predictive health report to be automatically uploaded to the patient's medical record. Optionally, the integration may use standardized protocols such as HL7 (Health Level Seven) or FHIR (Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources) to ensure compatibility with various EHR systems.
Telehealth platforms enable remote communication between patients and healthcare providers through video calls, messaging, and data sharing. Integration with telehealth platforms allows the predictive health report to be shared with healthcare professionals during remote consultations. The integration may include real-time data sharing, allowing the provider to review it during a telehealth session. Moreover, integration may include a two-way communication, wherein the patient uploads multimedia, and the healthcare providers can send feedback, additional instructions, or treatment recommendations to the patient through the integrated platform.
In this regard, the processing arrangement uses secure communication protocols (e.g., HTTPS, TLS) to transmit the predictive health report to EHR. or telehealth systems. Optionally, data in the predictive health report is encrypted to ensure patient privacy and compliance with regulations such as HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act) or GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation). Notably, the system sends the predictive health report to relevant stakeholders, such as healthcare professionals, through telehealth platforms or electronic health records (EHR) systems.
It may be appreciated that the EHRs and the telehealth platforms allow sending information such as clinical data to the processing arrangement for analysis, as discussed above. In this regard, the data is transferred over a secure communication network.
Beneficially, by automating data transmission and supporting remote monitoring, the integration improves patient outcomes, enhances provider efficiency, and reduces healthcare costs.
Moreover, the processing arrangement may leverage image preprocessing techniques, namely, image normalization and colour correction techniques, to standardize the appearance of images before analysis. Furthermore, the processing arrangement may leverage advanced feature extraction methods to identify specific characteristics, such as edges and contours, changes in texture or surface irregularities, colour gradients, spikes and dips in a graph, and so on. Furthermore, the system undergoes thorough validation and testing to ensure its accuracy across different conditions, namely medical conditions and the symptoms and signs associated therewith under different environmental conditions. Such validation and testing include comparative studies to evaluate performance of the user in different environments, receiving feedback from healthcare professionals to refine the algorithm, and so on.
Beneficially, by leveraging diverse training datasets, advanced Al techniques, and image preprocessing methods, the system eliminates bias and promotes equitable healthcare outcomes.
