Patent US10229754


Issued 2019-03-12

Wearable Device Obtaining Audio Data For Diagnosis

Systems, devices, and methods for providing audio database for health systems that may utilize wearable devices that monitor wearable sensor readings for symptoms associated with a disease and that may prompt a user of the wearable device to place a microphone from the wearable device on a specific location on the user's body for recording an audio file that may be sent to a health professional for diagnosis of the disease.

2 Independent Claims

  • 1. A method of diagnosing a disease using a wearable device worn by a user, the wearable device having a display and wearable sensors, the wearable sensors including at least one microphone, the method comprising: monitoring, with the wearable device, wearable sensor data generated by the wearable sensors; analyzing, with the wearable device, the wearable sensor data to determine whether the user is exhibiting symptoms of a disease, the analyzing comprising comparing at least one portion of the wearable sensor data to at least one disease-specific alert setting, wherein a match of the at least one portion of the wearable sensor data to the at least one disease-specific alert setting is indicative of the user exhibiting symptoms of the disease; instructing the user in response to the analysis indicating that the user is exhibiting symptoms of a disease, to place the at least one microphone on a specific location on the user's body for obtaining audio data for auscultation for diagnosing whether the user has the disease, wherein the instructing includes providing a representation of a human body on the display with an indicator corresponding to the specific location on the body where the at least one microphone should be placed; and after instructing the user, capturing the audio data via the microphone.

  • 12. A wearable device for diagnosing a disease comprising: a display; wearable sensors including at least one microphone; and a machine-readable storage medium for storing machine executable instructions designed and configured to cause the wearable device to: monitor wearable sensor data generated by said wearable sensors; analyze the wearable sensor data to determine whether the user is exhibiting symptoms of a disease by comparing at least one portion of the wearable sensor data to at least one disease-specific alert setting, wherein a match of the at least one portion of the wearable sensor data to the at least one disease-specific alert setting is indicative of the user exhibiting symptoms of the disease; instruct the user, in response to the analysis indicating that the user is exhibiting symptoms of a disease, to place the at least one microphone on a specific location on the user's body for obtaining audio data for auscultation for diagnosing whether the user has the disease, wherein instructing the user includes providing a representation of a human body on the display with an indicator corresponding to the specific location on the body where the at least one microphone should be placed; and after instructing the user, capturing the audio data via the microphone.
