Remote Healthcare-Monitoring System With User Enabled Diagnostic Capabilities

A healthcare-monitoring system collects health data through sensors then analyzes the data. The system may then instruct the user to retrieve one or more medical devices or tests stored within the system and perform an additional diagnostic measurement or test. Medication may also be stored within the system. The location of a medical device, test, or medication may be tracked in relation to the position of the user and the user's body parts. Correct use of the medical device or test and consumption of the medication may be assessed. A user interface may provide instruction for proper use of a medical device or test as well as its location within the system. Sensors may indicate whether a medical device has been returned to its proper place or if a consumable medical product has been removed from storage. The system may automatically reorder consumable medical supplies and track drug compliance.
