Predictive risk assessment in patient and health modeling

Abstract

A patient's health is modeled through multiple scenarios. A base model incorporates rules that govern a response by a human being to one or more diseases, as well as a relation between health metrics and the diseases. Health attributes of the patient are obtained. From the base model and the health attributes, a patient model is generated. The patient model is modeled under different parameters to generate health metrics. From an analysis of the parameters and the resulting health metrics, occurrence probabilities for each of the sets of parameters are determined. Risks are identified, which indicate a likelihood of the patient transitioning from the initial state to an adverse outcome such as a diseased state. A report provides a diagnosis of the patient and one or more remedies/interventions that are predicted, based on the plural sets of parameters and resulting health metrics, to avoid or prevent an adverse outcome.
