A parameter evaluation system comprising a boundary input device for
setting boundaries in a variation range of one or more parameters,
thereby to define regions within said variation range, a label input
device for associating labels with said regions, a rule input device for
setting rules to associate at least one of a plurality of output
recommendations with each of said regions and with combinations thereof
and an output device to present a user with an output recommendation
associated with a region or combination thereof corresponding to at least
one measured parameter input to said system. The input device is a
parameter value region selection and categorization input device for
setting boundaries in the variation range of the parameter, defining
regions therebetween and categorizing the regions. The device comprises a
visual representation of the variation range as a linear continuum, a
continuum divider for visually dividing the continuum at user selectable
points therealong, the points corresponding to values of the parameter,
thereby to define regions therebetween and a category definer for
defining categories for association with the regions. The device has an
application in a patient monitoring kit under remote supervision of a
physician.
