whiskerDocs® Transforms Pet Care with Groundbreaking 3rd Patent

LONG GROVE, Ill., Aug. 14, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- whiskerDocs^® is proud to announce that its 3^rd patent, U.S. Patent 11,894,144, ANIMAL HEALTH DECISION SUPPORT SYSTEM AND METHODS, was granted earlier this year. This invention relates generally to a system and method for integrating pet health records, and more specifically to an integrated pet health record that is configured to collect, store, maintain, analyze, and provide recommendations about a pet's health from a variety of sources.

whiskerDocs^® was the first to file for patent protection directed to its proprietary technology and has been granted 3 patents to date, thereby securing exclusive rights to broad applications for the delivery of animal decision support (tele-triage) in the U.S.

Patent 11,894,144 is a continuation in part of U.S. Patent 10,629,304, which is directed to a system that can receive input from a pet parent and based on the pet parent's selections, determine and present an appropriate course of action. In addition to the broad decision support function, another protected and unique feature is that, in determining the appropriate course of action, the system analyzes multiple, relevant pet demographic and health data points.

whiskerDocs^® is also at the forefront of technology and has secured, through U.S. Patent 11,894,143, exclusive rights to several unique concepts, including systems and methods for:

• collecting pet parent medical information for integration with the pet's medical record;
• training an artificial intelligence model based on the individual pet and a global dataset; and
• analyzing risk factors of the pet to predict a medical condition.

In obtaining U.S. Patent 11,894,144, whiskerDocs^® extended its exclusive rights by combining the novel features of its animal decision support system with the inventive technologies described above. As a result, whiskerDocs^® has combined the learnings from both the human and pet profiles to provide users with individualized, specific courses of action that are accurate and achievable.
