Cloud-based patient monitoring and pain management system

Abstract

Systems, devices, and methods for remote monitoring and managing of patients with chronic pain are discussed. A remote monitoring system comprises a cloud-computing device and a remote device. The cloud-computing device receives patient data including physiological or functional information sensed by sensors, and provides on-demand cloud-based services including establishing a correspondence between one or more physiological or functional states and one or more pain levels, detecting patient physiological or functional state, predicting a pain level, detecting a patient behavior, generating a recommendation for adjusting sensor operations based on the patient behavior, and storing patient data and other information in a cloud storage. The remote device can access the cloud storage and the cloud-based services, provide the stored information to an authorized user or the patient, control an implantable device to initiate or adjust a neuromodulation therapy, or adjust sensor operations.
