System and method for a thermoregulated environment
Various systems and devices are provided for determining a weaning readiness for weaning a patient from a thermoregulated microenvironment. In one example, a method includes receiving a plurality of current patient parameters of a patient housed in a thermoregulated microenvironment, applying a weaning model to the plurality of current patient parameters to generate a weaning index representing a likelihood that the patient will be successfully weaned from the microenvironment if weaned at that time, the weaning model trained to correlate the current patient parameters with the likelihood based on historical data of prior patients and known outcomes for those prior patients, and outputting the weaning index for display on a display device and/or for storage in a medical record of the patient.
1. A method for determining a weaning readiness of a patient housed in a thermoregulated microenviornment, the method comprising:
receiving a plurality of current patient parameters of the patient;
applying a weaning model to the plurality of current patient parameters to calculate a weaning index representing a likelihood that the patient can be successfully weaned from the microenvironment, wherein the weaning model is trained to calculate the weaning index based on the plurality of current patient parameters relative to historical data of prior patients and known outcomes for the prior patients;
outputting the weaning index for display on a display device and/or for storage in a medical record of the patient;
upon outputting the weaning index, receiving one or more subsequent patient outcomes, the one or more subsequent patient outcomes including whether the patient was readmitted to the microenvironment within a duration since being weaned from the microenvironment, whether the patient developed any complications within the duration since being weaned from the microenvironment, and ambient conditions when the patient was weaned from the microenvironment; and
updating the weaning model based on the one or more received subsequent patient outcome.
2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising, upon outputting the weaning index,
receiving a patient weaning status; and
updating the weaning model based on the patient weaning status, wherein the patient weaning status comprises a notification that the patient is currently being weaned or a notification that the patient is not currently being weaned.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the current patient parameters comprise a respiration rate of the patient, a heart rate of the patient, a temperature of the patient, a gestational age of the patient, a number of days since birth of the patient, and/or an oral sucking reflex of the patient.
4. The method of claim 3 , wherein the historical data of the prior patients includes a plurality of prior patient parameters, and training the weaning model comprises training the weaning model using a plurality of training datasets, each of the plurality of training datasets comprising the plurality of prior patient parameters for a respective one of the prior patients and one or more known outcomes for the respective one of the prior patients, each of the prior patients previously housed in a thermoregulated microenvironment.
5. The method of claim 4 , wherein, for each of the prior patients, the plurality of prior patient parameters are obtained prior to the respective one of the prior patients being weaned from the thermoregulated microenvironment and/or after weaning, and wherein, for each of the prior patients, the one or more known outcomes comprise a patient status after being weaned from the thermoregulated microenvironment.
