摘要：
Systems and methods for monitoring subjects after discharge from a hospital use a dynamic baseline to determine whether a caregiver needs to be notified regarding exacerbation of a medical state of a subject. The subjects are chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients. The dynamic baseline is determined by aggregating (for example averaging) multiple values of a sequence of values for a metric that quantifies one or both of a patient symptom (e.g. the number of overnight apnea occurrences) and/or lung function of a subject (e.g. forced expiratory volume in 1 second). Multiple metrics may be combined to generate the value that is monitored for a subject.
