Methods and systems for providing an episode of care
Systems and methods for determining a care plan for a patient are disclosed. Data from a one or more databases are received or retrieved and used to determine a preferred care plan used to perform a surgical procedure or otherwise treat a patient. The data may include data pertaining to a patient, a healthcare professional, a healthcare facility, an implant, economic data, simulation data, imaging data, and/or the like. The data may be used to determine a plan that provides a positive outcome and patient satisfaction. The data may be updated over time or in real time to improve or refine the determination of care plans for the current patient or other patients.
1. A system for optimizing outcomes and patient satisfaction during an episode of care comprising:
one or more processors; and
a non-transitory processor-readable storage medium in operable communication with the one or more processors, comprising one or more instructions that, when executed, cause the one or more processors to:
obtain, from one or more sources, case plan data comprising at least one of: patient data, healthcare professional data, facility data, or healthcare economy data,
perform, using a neural network, a simulation for a new episode of care based on the case plan data, wherein the neural network is trained using at least a first training set comprising historical case data from a database,
generate, based on the simulation, a predictor equation, wherein the predictor equation comprises one or more weighting values associated with at least one implant component and an associated patient anatomy,
receive, from a user input device, at least one user input associated with the new episode of care,
modify, based on the at least one user input, the predictor equation,
determine, based on the modified predictor equation, an optimized case plan comprising a volumetric representation of bone to be removed from the associated patient anatomy, and
train the neural network using a second training set comprising the historical case data and one or more of the case plan data, the optimized case plan, and outcome data associated with the new episode of care.
