Abstract
A system and apparatus for monitoring self-care behavior and health status, for prompting patient self-care events such as taking medications, and for reporting self-care behavior and health status to the patient's caregivers and concerned others. The system (Self-Care Optimization System, or SOS) uses a remote data collection/messaging device (SOS device) that communicates with the SOS. The SOS monitors and promotes positive self-care behavior and collects health status data, such as blood sugar levels, blood pressure, weights, blood oxygenation levels, etc. for transmission to the SOS. The SOS prompts patients to perform self-care tasks by telephone, email, page, fax, or by sending alert messages to the SOS device. The SOS notifies medical professionals, caregivers, and/or concerned others when a pre-programmed self-care event occurs or has not occurred, of abnormal health status values such as high blood pressures, and of emergency requests for assistance made by patients pressing a 'help alert' button on the SOS device.
