摘要:
The invention provides a system to better detect the onset of congestive heart failure (CHF). The system consists of two primary components—the CHF Index Graph (CHFIG) and a body-worn sensor for measuring the necessary parameters—that correctly measure and analyze a set of parameters related to CHF. The CHFIG typically consists of 7 or 8 unique axes, each corresponding to a different CHF-related parameter. Each axis is normalized and scaled so that the plotted values trend outwards as a patients trajectory towards CHF worsens. Thus, the area of a region constructed from the plotted values of the parameters increases as the values move further away from the center of the graph this indicates the patient is trending towards CHF. Conversely, a healthy patients parameters will be clustered relatively close to the center of the graph, creating a region with a much smaller area.
