Assisted Medical and Associated Lifestyle Decision Making
Methods, systems, devices, and computer-readable media for generating a location-based physiological history of a subject are provided. Methods may include generating, with the aid of a processor, a location-based physiological history of the subject by correlating geolocation data of the subject with physiological data and exogenous data. The geolocation data may be obtained with the aid of a geolocation system on or associated with the subject. The exogenous data may be of or related to environmental conditions at a geographic location of the subject.
1 . A computer-implemented method for generating a location-based physiological history of a subject, comprising:
generating, with the aid of a processor, a location-based physiological history of said subject by correlating geolocation data of said subject with physiological data and exogenous data,
wherein said geolocation data is obtained with the aid of a geolocation system on or associated with said subject, and
wherein said exogenous data is of or related to environmental conditions at a geographic location of said subject.
2 . The method of claim 1 , wherein said physiological data is obtained with the aid of a point of service system on or associated with said subject.
3 . The method of claim 1 , wherein said physiological data is obtained at a geographical location of said subject.
4 . The method of claim 1 , wherein said physiological data comprises at least one of protein concentration, blood pressure, breathing pattern, white blood cell count, red blood cell count, heart rate, body temperature, blood pressure, DNA/RNA expression, drug concentration, skin conductivity, amount of hand tremors, or metabolite concentration.
5 . The method of claim 1 , wherein said exogenous data is collected before, during, or after said subject's visit to said location.
6 . The method of claim 1 , wherein said exogenous data comprises at least one of, temperature, air pressure, humidity, dew point, wind speed, food consumed by the subject, or concentration of allergens, pollen, pathogens, carbon monoxide, or toxins.
7 . The method of claim 1 , wherein said geolocation data is obtained with the aid of a geolocation system on or associated with said subject.
8 . The method of claim 7 , wherein the geolocation system uses wireless triangulation or a global positioning system (GPS).
9 . The method of claim 7 , wherein said geolocation system is configured to obtain exogenous data or physiological data from said subject.
10 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising transmitting said location-based physiological history of said subject to (i) said subject, (ii) a healthcare provider, (iii) an insurance provider, or (iv) a pharmacy.
11 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising correlating said location-based physiological history of said subject with a location-based physiological history of other subjects.
12 . (canceled)
13 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising correlating said exogenous data with geolocation data, physiological data, and personal behavior data to generate said location-based physiological history, wherein said exogenous data is of or relating to the environment.
14 - 19 . (canceled)
20 . The method of claim 13 , wherein said personal behavior data is collected from at least one source selected from the group consisting of a social network, the Internet, a communications repository, a retailer, a multimedia repository, a bank, or a credit union.
21 . The method of claim 13 , wherein said personal behavior data is obtained from a communications device or multimedia device of or associated with said subject.
22 . The method of claim 21 , wherein said communications device or multimedia device is portable.
23 . The method of claim 13 , wherein said personal behavior data comprises at least one of social networking data, communications data, purchasing history, or multimedia data.
24 . The method of claim 23 , wherein said communications data is selected from the group consisting of short message service (SMS) text messaging, multimedia message service (MMS) text messaging, phone conversations, or instant messaging.
25 . The method of claim 13 , further comprising transmitting said location-based physiological history of said subject to (i) said subject, (ii) a healthcare provider, (iii) an insurance provider, or (iv) a pharmacy.
26 . The method of claim 13 , further comprising correlating said location-based physiological history of said subject with a location-based physiological history of other subjects.
27 - 45 . (canceled)
46 . A method for providing a warning concerning the health of a subject, comprising:
correlating, with the aid of a processor, geolocation data of said subject with physiological data and exogenous data, said exogenous data related to an environmental condition of a location in which said subject resides or plans to visit; and
providing said warning concerning the health of the subject based on said correlation when said correlation is statistically significant,
wherein said physiological data is collected during or subsequent to the visit to said location.
