Abstract

A system and method for providing patient status diagnosis for use in automated patient care is described. Physiological measures relating to individual patient information recorded on a substantially continuous basis for an individual patient are stored as a patient care record into a database. One or more of the physiological measures in the patient care record are retrieved from the database. The retrieved physiological measures are analyzed relative to one or more other physiological measures to determine a patient status indicator. Feedback based on the analysis of the one or more physiological measures is sent to the individual patient.
