Definitions

  • Strokes result from blockage of blood flow in cerebral vessels due to constriction of the vessel resulting from an embolus or stenosis. Strokes may also arise from tearing of the vessel wall due to any number of circumstances. Accordingly, a blockage may result in ischemic stroke depriving neural tissue distal to the blockage of oxygen and glucose. A tearing or rupture of the vessel may result in bleeding into the brain, also known as a hemorrhagic stroke. Intracranial bleeding exerts deleterious effects on surrounding tissue due to increased intracranial pressure and direct exposure of neurons to blood.
  • V Velocity of blood flow
  • vascular data can be transmitted to a central receiving facility, which receives the data, analyzes it, produces a value indicative of the state of vascular health, and then transmit this information to another location, such as the originating data transmitting station, or perhaps directly to the health care provider's office.
  • This system should provide access to sophisticated computing capabilities that would enhance the accuracy of health care providers' diagnostic and prognostic capabilities concerning vascular health.
  • This system should be able to receive high volumes of patient data and rapidly process the data in order to obtain diagnoses and prognoses of disease. Such a system could be used for diagnosis and prognosis of any disease or condition related to vascular health.
  • the screening method for adverse effects of a treatment on a vessel as described above may be applied both before and after administration of the treatment.
  • Va end diastolic velocity
  • Yet other object of the present invention is to provide a non-invasive method to evaluate substances, such as drugs, suspected of have vascular activity in individuals with no apparent vascular problems.
  • a further advantage of the present invention is that it is rapid and inexpensive to perform.
  • One way in which the system of the present invention is trained is one wherein the software quantitates the rationale being used by the expert.
  • the expert and the system come to mirror each other.
  • the expert is very specific, concrete and quantitative regarding the data analysis.
  • the software maintains a detailed bookkeeping of the analytical process.
  • the purpose of the software is to capture the expert's analysis.
  • patient data is utilized by the automated decision support system according to the present invention.
  • This data may include personal data, such as date of birth, ethnic group, sex, physical activity level, and address.
  • the data may further include clinical data such as a visit identification, height, weight, date of visit, age, blood pressure, pulse rate, respiration rate, and so forth.
  • Specific operation of the DSA 1022 sub-module can include initialization by one or more external commands; and use of knowledge bases to store concept patterns and knowledge base algorithms used to infer concepts from leaf-level data provided, with the basis for the inferences being the TCD data and clinical data.
  • the algorithms infer the concepts in several intermediate steps, each represented in the concept graph, such that it is sufficient for one skilled in the art of the problem domain to follow the chain of reasoning.
  • the conditions represented in the concept graph include, but are not limited to, vasodilation, hyperemic vasodilation, pathological vasodilation, non-compliance, and irreversible stenosis.
  • the concept graphs provide a path for following a chain of reasoning backwards from a conclusion.

Abstract

Cette invention se rapporte d'une façon générale à des systèmes et à des procédés pour évaluer la circulation sanguine dans des vaisseaux sanguins, pour évaluer l'état de santé vasculaire, pour effectuer des essais cliniques, pour déterminer les effets secondaires d'interventions thérapeutiques et pour évaluer les effets de facteurs de risque, de thérapies et de substances, y compris des substances thérapeutiques, sur des vaisseaux sanguins, notamment des vaisseaux sanguins du cerveau, toutes ces opérations étant effectuées par mesure de divers paramètres de la circulation sanguine dans un ou plusieurs vaisseaux et par analyse des résultats selon un mode défini. Les paramètres pertinents de la circulation sanguine sont la vitesse d'écoulement moyenne, l'accélération systolique et l'index de pulsatilité. En mesurant et en analysant ces paramètres, on peut évaluer l'état de santé vasculaire d'un vaisseau particulier, de vaisseaux multiples et d'un individu. Ces mesures peuvent également servir à déterminer si une substance produit un effet, soit néfaste soit bénéfique, sur l'état de santé vasculaire. Dans l'un des nombreux modes de réalisation, cette invention propose en outre un système expert de réalisation de ces procédés.
