Before devising the exercise training plan for the patient, physiological parameters of the patient are measured and health information data (i.e., patient information and/or patient symptoms) of the patient is obtained. The physiological parameters of the patient together with the health information data of the patient are then used to devise an appropriate exercise training plan for the patient.
During the exercise training plan, the physiological parameters are monitored to determine if the physiological data is within a predetermined range. If the physiological data is not within a predetermined range, the exercise training plan may be modified accordingly (e.g., lower or higher intensity exercise training plan; or shorter or longer duration exercise training plan). Therefore, the patient's physiological data may be used to guide the exercise training plan, resulting in a more individualized exercise training plan.
By providing a tailored or an individualized exercise training plan for the patient, the exercise training and outcome may be optimized. In one embodiment, computer implemented method 100 is also configured to assess the patient health status using the physiological data that is taken after exercise training plan is complete.
Computer implemented method 100 is implemented in a computer system comprising one or more processors 214 (as shown in and described with reference to

In one embodiment, the patient symptoms may include dyspnea (or shortness of breath), cough, wheezing, mucus or sputum production, chest tightness, fatigue, or any combination thereof.
At procedure 106, physiological parameters of the patient are measured to gather physiological data. In one embodiment, the physiological parameters may include physical activity, respiration rate, amount of oxygen carried by red blood cells, heart rate, temperature, volume of air inspired and expired by the lungs, or any combination thereof.
In another embodiment, the physiological parameters may include physical activity, respiration rate, amount of oxygen carried by red blood cells, heart rate, or any combination thereof. In other words, in one embodiment, the temperature and the volume of air inspired and expired by the lungs may be excluded as they (i.e., the temperature and the volume of air inspired and expired by the lungs) may not provide valuable information related to the pulmonary rehabilitation.
In one embodiment, the physiological parameters may be measured during exercise testing (e.g., a six-minute walk test that is generally used to evaluate the exercise capacity of the patient), or exercise training (e.g., cycling, treadmill, or weight training). In one embodiment, the six-minute walk test is performed by using two cones (that are separated by a distance of, for example, thirty meters), and a stopwatch.
In one embodiment, the physiological parameters measured during exercise testing are not used in real time to modify the exercise training program. Instead, in one embodiment, the physiological parameters measured during exercise testing are used offline once the current exercise training program/session has ended.

In another embodiment, the patient or healthcare personnel may manually input information that the (devised) exercise training plan of the patient is complete into processor 214 using user interface 218.
If the (devised) exercise training plan of the patient is complete, then method 100 proceeds to procedure 116. Otherwise, method 100 returns to procedure 110 where the physiological parameters of the patient, during the exercise training plan of the patient, are monitored to determine if the physiological data is within a predetermined range.
At procedure 116, processor 214 (as shown in and described with reference to
Processor 214 may generate a signal that provides information on the exercise training plan. The processor may be connected to a printer, a graphical user interface or other output device that can communicate the information to the patient or health care provider. The printer or the graphical user interface may be a separate device or integrated into user interface 218. As noted above, in one embodiment, the exercise training plan for the patient is modified by increasing or decreasing the intensity of the exercise training.

In one embodiment, the volume of air inspired by or exhaled by the lungs is measured using airway obstruction measuring device 212. In one embodiment, the airway obstruction measuring device may include a spirometer. In one embodiment, the spirometer is a handheld spirometer. For example, in one embodiment, the handheld spirometer may be a MicroGP spirometer available from Micro Direct, Inc. In one embodiment, the spirometer may include an analog spirometer or a digital spirometer.
In one embodiment, the airway obstruction is assessed using a spirometry test. During the spirometry test, patient breathes into a mouth piece that is connected to a spirometer. The spirometer is configured to record the amount and the rate of air that patient breathes in and out over a period of time. In one embodiment, during the spirometry test, the patient takes the deepest breath they can and exhales as hard as possible for as long as they are able to. In one embodiment, the spirometry test is normally repeated three times to ensure reproducibility.
The spirometer measures Forced Expiratory Volume measured over one second (FEV1) (i.e., volume expired in the first second of maximal expiration after a maximal inspiration). FEV1 is a measure of how quickly the lungs can be emptied. A lower FEV1 value generally indicates a greater degree of airway obstruction.
The spirometer is also configured to measure Forced Vital Capacity (FVC) (i.e., maximum volume of air that can be exhaled during a forced maneuver), and Peak Expiratory Flow (PEF). The spirometer is also configured to measure FEV1/FVC (i.e., FEV1 expressed as a percentage of the FVC). FEV1/FVC provides a clinically useful index of airflow limitation. For example, a value of FEV1/FVC less than 70% indicates airflow limitation and the possibility of COPD.
The airway obstruction grading is illustrated in the TABLE. 2. TABLE. 2 shows the FEV1 as a percentage of a predicted value. The predicted value is determined based on patient's age, patient's sex, patient's height, patient's weight, and/or patient's race.
If the measured FEV1 value is greater than 80% of the predicted value, then the patient may have a mild airway obstruction. If the measured FEV1 value is between 50% of a predicted value and 80% of a predicted value, then the patient may have a moderate airway obstruction. If the measured FEV1 value is between 30% of a predicted value and 50% of a predicted value, then the patient may have a severe airway obstruction. If the measured FEV1 value is less than 30% of a predicted value, then the patient may have a very severe airway obstruction.
In another embodiment, airway obstruction device 212 may include a peak flow meter. The peak flow meter is configured to measure the patient's maximum speed of expiration, or peak expiratory flow (PEFR or PEF). The peak flow readings are higher when patient's airways are not constricted, and lower when the patient's airways are constricted.
The spirometer and the peak flow meter described above are just two examples for measuring the airway obstruction data, however, it is contemplated that other airway obstruction measuring devices known in the art may be used to measure the airway obstruction data of the patient. In a further embodiment, the spirometer is not worn by the patient during the exercise training.
In one embodiment airway obstruction device 212 may be directly connected to processor 214. In such an embodiment, the airway obstruction device may be connected to the processor over a wired or wireless network, for example. It is also contemplated that airway obstruction device 212 may be connected to processor 214 via data storage device 216.

Although the invention has been described in detail for the purpose of illustration, it is to be understood that such detail is solely for that purpose and that the invention is not limited to the disclosed embodiments, but, on the contrary, is intended to cover modifications and equivalent arrangements that are within the spirit and scope of the appended claims. In addition, it is to be understood that the present invention contemplates that, to the extent possible, one or more features of any embodiment can be combined with one or more features of any other embodiment.
This patent application claims the priority benefit under 35 U.S.C. §119(e) of U.S. Provisional Application No. 61/290,342 filed on Dec. 28, 2009, the contents of which are herein incorporated by reference. The present invention relates to a computer implemented method and a system for providing exercise training plan for a patient. Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a respiratory disease that is characterized by inflammation of the airways. It is further characterized by an airflow limitation that is not fully reversible. The airflow limitation is both progressive and associated with an abnormal inflammatory response of the lungs to noxious particles or gases. Symptoms of COPD may include coughing, wheezing, and the production of mucus and the degree of severity can, in part, be viewed in terms of the volume and color of secretions. Pulmonary rehabilitation is a form of treatment for a COPD patient. The pulmonary rehabilitation may include, for example, exercise training, nutrition (weight management), education, psychological and social support, and/or medical management. The exercise training not only maintains, but also improves, the physical capacity of the COPD patient. Most exercise training plans are devised based on patient information and symptoms. The patient information may include patient's gender, age, weight, smoking history, and height. The patient symptoms may include dyspnea (or shortness of breath), cough, wheezing, mucus or sputum production, chest tightness, and fatigue. However, the patient information and symptoms only offer a limited information that is used to generate a suitable exercise training plan. Therefore, the exercise training plan devised based on the patient information and symptoms may not always be optimal for the patient (i.e., may not be tailored to an individual's health status). Further, the outcome of these exercise training sessions are measured via a set of questionnaires. For example, after the exercise training, a questionnaire such as the Borg scale questionnaire, which consists of a scale from 1 to 10 to quantify breathlessness, is used to determine the patient condition (i.e., after exercise training). However, these questionnaires are highly subjective, and rely on memory recall, which may be demanding for the elderly patients. Thus, the measure of outcome of these exercise training sessions is rather subjective. Accordingly, it is an object of the present invention to provide a computer implemented method for providing an exercise training plan for a patient that overcomes the shortcomings of conventional techniques. This object is achieved according to one embodiment of the present invention by providing a computer implemented method that includes a computer system comprising a processor configured to execute a computer programs module. The method includes receiving in one or more processors health information data from the patient, the health information data representative of patient information and/or patient symptoms; measuring physiological parameters of the patient with the at least one sensor to gather physiological data; executing, on the one or more processors of the computer system, one or more computer program modules configured to devise the exercise training plan for the patient based on the health information data and the physiological data; monitoring the physiological data during exercise training of the patient, to determine if the physiological data is within a predetermined range; and executing, on the one or more processors of the computer system, one or more computer program modules configured to modify the exercise training plan for the patient if the physiological data is outside the predetermined range. Another aspect of the present invention provides a system for providing an exercise training plan for a patient. The system includes at least one sensor, and at least one processor operatively connected to the at least one sensor. The sensor is configured to measure physiological parameters of the patient to gather physiological data. The processor is configured to: a) receive health information data from the patient, the health information data representative of patient information and patient symptoms; b) receive the physiological data from the at least one sensor; c) devise the exercise training plan for the patient based on the health information data and the physiological data; d) monitor the physiological data, during the exercise training of the patient, to determine if the physiological data is within a predetermined range; and e) modify the exercise training plan for the patient if the physiological data is outside the predetermined range. Another aspect of the present invention provides a system for providing an exercise training plan for a patient. The system includes at least one sensor, and at least one processor operatively connected to the at least one sensor. The sensor is configured to measure physiological parameters of the patient to gather physiological data. The processor is configured to: a) receive health information data from the patient, the health information data representative of patient information and patient symptoms; b) receive the physiological data from the at least one sensor; c) devise the exercise training plan for the patient based on the health information data and the physiological data; d) monitor the physiological data, during the exercise training of the patient; and e) modify the exercise training plan based on the physiological data.
