摘要:
Methods and systems for monitoring compliance of a patient with a prescribed treatment regimen are described. Compliance is determined based upon analysis of the patient's speech detected during use of a communication system such as a mobile telephone by the patient. Methods and systems as described herein can be used for monitoring patient compliance with a treatment for a brain-related disorder, for example. Identity of the patient as user of the communication system is determined through the use of e.g., biometric or authentication techniques. Speech data indicative of whether the patient has complied with the prescribed treatment regimen is transmitted from a circuitry-based system at the patient location to a monitoring location, where it may be reviewed by a medical caregiver or other party, for example. Patient speech may be analyzed at the patient location and/or subjected to analysis at the monitoring location.
