On the other hand, a relatively small and lightweight device such as a thermometer is attached to an appropriate position of the user's body with a clip, pin, belt, or the like, or carried by the user, and the user always or when desired The body state detection device 20 is used. The body state detection device 20 and the input unit 18 of the mobile device 10 are configured to be able to perform data communication with each other by wireless or wired such as Bluetooth (registered trademark) or infrared rays.

  Next, FIG. 3 is a block diagram illustrating a configuration of the medical support server device 40. As illustrated in FIG. 3, the medical support server device 40 includes a control unit 41, a communication unit 42, and a nonvolatile storage unit 43. The control unit 41 includes an arithmetic device such as a CPU and various memories such as a ROM and a RAM. The arithmetic device of the control unit 41 controls each unit of the medical support server device 40 by reading and executing the control programs stored in the memory and the nonvolatile storage unit 43. The communication unit 42 includes a connection interface for connecting to the mobile communication network 30 and a communication control circuit, and communicates with the mobile device 10 and the medical institution terminal 50 via the mobile communication network 30. The nonvolatile storage unit 43 is a large-capacity storage device such as a hard disk. In addition to storing the control program described above, the nonvolatile storage unit 43 stores a user database 431, a diagnostic message database 432, a medical institution database 433, and a transportation institution database 434.

Here, the contents stored in the nonvolatile storage unit 43 will be specifically described.
First, FIG. 4 is a diagram illustrating an example of the contents of the user database 431. The user database 431 includes various user-related attributes such as user attributes, user treatment history, determination reference values for determining whether the user's physical condition is normal or abnormal, and commuting routes to the user's work place. Contains information. User attributes include the user's name, address, age, gender, appropriate consumption (ingestion) calories per day, etc., and these are stored in the non-volatile storage unit 43 according to prior notification from the user. The The treatment history data is information indicating the treatment content that the user has received in the past at the medical institution, and is stored in the nonvolatile storage unit 43 in response to a report from the user or a communication from the medical institution. In FIG. 4, only very simple contents are shown as the treatment history data, but it goes without saying that even more detailed contents may be stored.

  Judgment reference values are determined for each type of physical condition, and in particular for specific types of physical conditions such as pulse stays and blood pressures, they are determined in units of position areas that are classified according to predetermined criteria. . The reason is that, for example, when the user is at home, when the user is working at work, and when the user is commuting, the environment surrounding the user is different. This is because it is considered that the standard for determining the abnormality is slightly changed. In the example shown in FIG. 4, when the user is at home (when the position of the mobile device 10 is included in the home area), the blood pressure is normal if it falls within the range of the determination reference values 60 to 140, whereas If it is in the middle (when the position of the mobile device 10 is included in the work area), it is normal if the blood pressure is within the range of the determination reference values 60 to 150, and if it is commuting (the position of the mobile device is in the commuting area). "When included" means that the blood pressure is normal if it falls within the range of the criterion values 60 to 160. Since there is an individual difference in the determination reference value, it is desirable that the user can access the medical support server device 40 using the mobile device 10 and can freely set and update the determination reference value.

  And the information regarding the commuting route included in the user database 431 is used to prompt the user to walk a part of the commuting section. Specifically, the medical support server device 40 calculates the daily expected calorie consumption of the user from the number of steps of the user detected by the body state detection device 20, and the expected calorie consumption is appropriate for the user per day. If it is predicted that the calorie consumption will be less, a message urging the user to walk on foot instead of transportation will be transmitted to the mobile device 10 instead of the distance corresponding to the shortage of calorie consumption in the commuting route. This will be described in more detail in the description of the transportation database 434.

  Next, FIG. 5 is a diagram illustrating an example of the contents of the diagnostic message database 432. In this diagnostic message database 432, a degree of abnormality of the physical condition assumed in advance and a diagnostic message prepared in advance for the degree of abnormality are associated with each other. For example, as shown in FIG. 5, when the blood pressure exceeds the determination reference value (the upper limit value when the determination reference value has a width) and is within the range of deviation from the determination reference value to +10, “blood pressure is A diagnostic message such as "It is a little expensive." If the blood pressure exceeds the criterion value and is within the range of deviation from +10 to +30 from the criterion value, “Blood pressure is high. We recommend that you consult this hospital. A diagnostic message such as “Yes / No” is associated. Further, the diagnostic message may include contents that explain the cause of an increase in blood pressure or guide exercise or meal for lowering the blood pressure.

  Next, FIG. 6 is a diagram illustrating an example of the contents of the medical institution database 433. In the medical institution database 433, each medical institution name, the address and position (latitude / longitude) of the medical institution, and the communication address of the medical institution terminal 50 installed in the medical institution are associated. In the present embodiment, the telephone number of the medical institution terminal 50 is used as the communication address of the medical institution terminal 50. The medical support server device 40 can guide the nearest medical institution to the user by matching the position of the user (mobile device 10) with the position of the medical institution registered in the medical institution database 433. it can.

  Next, FIG. 7 is a diagram illustrating an example of the contents of the transportation facility database 434. In the transportation database 434, for each transportation route such as trains and buses, the names of the stations and bus bowers included in the route, the distance between each station or between each bus stop (unit section), and the distance are shown. The calorie consumption when walking on foot is associated. As described above, the medical support server device 40 predicts that the expected calorie consumption that the user will consume per day is less than the appropriate calorie consumption, based on the current calorie consumption calculated from the number of steps of the user. In such a case, the user is encouraged to walk a distance commensurate with the shortage of calories consumed during commuting. In the example of FIG. 7, for example, when the estimated daily calorie consumption of a user who commutes from a station to r station is less than the appropriate calorie consumption by 20 to 30 kcal, the medical support server device 40 determines the commuting route of the user. A message prompting to walk 900 m (calories consumed: 25 kcal) from station a to station b corresponding to the shortage of 20 to 30 kcal is generated and transmitted to the mobile device 10 of the user.

(2) Operation Next, a specific operation of the medical support system 1 having the above configuration will be described.
(2-1) From collection of physical condition to provision of diagnostic message and emergency contact information First, operations from collection of physical condition to provision of diagnostic message will be described.
FIG. 8 is a flowchart illustrating a processing procedure when the control unit 16 of the mobile device 10 collects body state information from the body state detection device 20 and transmits the collected body state information to the medical support server device 40. In FIG. 8, the control unit 16 first determines whether or not the input unit 18 has taken in the body state information from the body state detection device 20 (step S1). When the body state is captured (step S1; Yes), the control unit 16 changes the body state information to “body temperature = 36.5 degrees”, “blood pressure = 80”, “pulse = 50”, and the like. It writes in the memory | storage part 15 according to the kind of body state (step S2). Next, the control unit 16 determines whether or not the position information has been taken in from the position information generation unit 17 (step S3). When the position information is taken in (step S3; Yes), the control unit 16 writes the position information in the storage unit 15 (step S4). This position information includes the date and time of positioning, in addition to the latitude and longitude representing the position itself. Thereafter, the control unit 16 repeats the above processing until the transmission timing of the body state information and the position information arrives. By repeating such a series of processes, the body state information and the position information are written in the storage unit 15 in time series.

  The transmission timing of the body state information and the position information may be a regular transmission timing such as an interval of 10 minutes, or may be a transmission timing that is arbitrarily generated according to a user operation. When the transmission timing of such body state information and position information arrives (step S5; Yes), the control unit 16 reads all untransmitted body state information and position information from the storage unit 15, and stores the body state in these pieces of information. Is added to the medical support server device 40 from the wireless communication unit 11 (step S6). And the process of the control part 16 returns to step S1, and performs the above-mentioned process again.

Next, the operation of the control unit 41 of the medical support server device 40 will be described.
FIG. 9 is a flowchart illustrating a processing procedure when the control unit 41 provides a diagnosis message and an emergency contact address to the mobile device based on the body state information. In FIG. 9, the control unit 41 first determines whether or not body state information and position information have been received from the mobile device 10 (step S11). When these are received (step S11; Yes), the control part 41 once memorize | stores in the non-volatile memory | storage part 43 the received physical condition information and position information, and the kind and telephone number of the physical condition added to these. (Step S12). Then, the control unit 41 searches the user database 431 using the stored telephone number as a key, and identifies the corresponding record. Further, the control unit 41 specifies a position area including the position information received in step S11 in the specified record, and a determination reference value corresponding to the position area (determination reference value corresponding to “normal range” in FIG. 4). Is read (step S13).

  Next, the control unit 41 compares the body state indicated by the body state information received in step S11 with the determination reference value read in step S13, and determines whether or not the user's body state is abnormal (step S14). ). If the physical condition is abnormal (step S14; Yes), the control unit 41 reads out a diagnostic message corresponding to the degree of the abnormality from the diagnostic message database 432 (step S15). Next, the control unit 41 determines whether or not the position (user position) indicated by the position information received in step S11 is a position area other than the home area / working area / commuting area registered in the user database 431. (Step S16). When the position of the user is included in a position area other than the home area / working area / commuting area (step S16; Yes), the control unit 41 searches the medical institution database 433 based on the position of the user. Then, the telephone number is extracted to the nearest medical institution (step S17). In other words, when the user is in a place other than the home area, work area, or commute area, for example, it is assumed that the user is traveling, so there is an abnormality in the physical condition. However, it is difficult for a user to go to a medical institution that he / she usually goes to. Therefore, in order for the medical support server device 40 to introduce a medical institution close to the current position of the user, the telephone number of the medical institution nearest to the user is extracted as described above. Next, when there is information to be transmitted to the mobile device, such as the diagnostic message read in step S15 or the telephone number of the medical institution read in step S17 (step S18; Yes), the control unit 41 outputs them. It transmits to the mobile device 10 (step S19).

Here, a specific operation example of the mobile device 10 and the medical support server device 40 described with reference to FIGS. In FIG. 10, it is assumed that the mobile device 10 acquires the body condition information “blood pressure = 160” while the user is traveling. The telephone number of the mobile device 10 is “090-1111-2222” shown in FIG.
First, the mobile device 10 acquires body state information “blood pressure = 160” from the body state detection device 20 (step S21), and transmits this to the medical support server device 40 (step S22). The medical support server device 40 checks the user's physical condition based on the received physical condition report and position information (step S23). Here, as shown in FIG. 4, the telephone number of the mobile device 10 is “0980-1111-2222”, the position information is other than the home area / working area / commuting area, and the type of physical condition is “blood pressure”. Therefore, the determination reference value is “60-150” (normal range). That is, since the physical condition of blood pressure = 160 exceeds the upper limit of the determination reference value “60-150” by +10, the medical support server device 40 determines that there is an abnormality in the physical condition, and FIG. From the diagnostic message database 432 shown, a diagnostic message “blood pressure is high. We recommend that you consult a hospital, do you want to consult? Yes / No” according to the degree of abnormality.

  Next, the medical support server device 40 checks the contact information when the physical condition is abnormal (step S24). Here, since the position indicated by the position information is a position area other than the home area, work area, and commuting area registered in the user database, the medical support server device determines the medical institution database 433 based on the position of the user. And information (telephone number etc.) regarding the nearest medical institution (here, “a hospital” shown in FIG. 6) is extracted. Then, the medical support server device 40 transmits the above diagnostic message, information on the medical institution, and the like to the mobile device 10 (step S25). The mobile device 10 displays the received diagnostic message (step S26), and registers the newly notified telephone number of the medical institution (a hospital) in the telephone directory of the storage unit 15 (step S27). The above-mentioned diagnosis message is displayed by the user of the mobile device 10 in the state where the diagnosis message “Blood pressure is high. It is recommended that you consult a hospital, do you want to consult? Yes / No” is displayed. If “Yes” is selected for the mobile station 10, the mobile device 10 accepts this operation (step S 28), and calls the medical institution terminal 50 using the telephone number registered in the telephone directory using the so-called PHONE TO function (step S 28). S29). Thereafter, a call is performed between the user of the mobile device 10 and the operator of the medical institution terminal 50 as necessary, and a medical condition is explained and an inquiry is made (step S30). The operator of the medical institution terminal 50 can also request the user's treatment history data from the medical support server device 40 as necessary. Based on this request, the medical support server device 40 reads treatment history data from the user database 431 and transmits it to the medical institution terminal 50. The medical institution can perform appropriate medical care with reference to the treatment history thus obtained. On the other hand, even if the user of the mobile device 10 selects “No” for the diagnostic message, the telephone number of the hospital a is registered in the phone book of the mobile device 10, so the user If you feel anxious about your physical condition, you can immediately contact the hospital using the phone number.

(2-2) Calorie Calculation Next, the calorie calculation operation will be described.
FIG. 11 is a flowchart illustrating a processing procedure when the control unit 41 of the medical support server device 40 provides a message for prompting the user to perform an action based on the predicted calorie consumption of the user of the mobile device 10. In FIG. 11, the control unit 41 reads out information related to the physical state “number of steps” from the physical state information stored in the nonvolatile storage unit 43, and based on this information, the estimated daily consumption of the user of the mobile device Calories are calculated (step S31). Next, the control unit 41 determines whether or not the expected daily calorie consumption satisfies the appropriate calorie consumption registered in the user database 431 (step S32). When it is determined that the condition is not satisfied (step S32; No), the control unit 41 refers to the user database 431 and reads the commuting route of the user (step S33). Then, the control unit 41 refers to the read commuting route and the transportation database 434, and extracts two stations (or two bus stops) separated by a distance corresponding to the shortage of calorie consumption in the user's commuting route. (Step S34). Then, the control unit 41 generates a message that prompts the user to walk between the two stations on the commuting route instead of transportation (step S35), and transmits the message to the mobile device 10 (step S35). S36). When receiving the message, the mobile device 10 displays the message on the display unit 13. By viewing this display, the user can know in detail how much exercise is necessary for his health.

  According to the present embodiment described above, the user can obtain appropriate advice for his / her physical condition even during movement. In addition, even when the user is away from the normal living area, such as when traveling, the nearest medical institution can be introduced to the user, so it is extremely safe for users with chronic illness. There is a feeling.

(3) Modifications The above embodiment can be modified as follows.
(3-1) Modification 1
The body state detection device 20 does not have to be a separate device from the mobile device 10 and may be built in the mobile device 10 or attached to the mobile device 10. For example, when the user holds the mobile device 10, the small body state detection device 20 is provided at a position where the hand naturally touches (side surface or back surface of the mobile device 10 or the surface of the operation key). Then, even if the user is not particularly conscious of touching the physical condition detection device 20, the user can hold the mobile device 10 in his / her hand and the physical condition as described above can be obtained from the contact portion of the hand by these physical condition detection devices 20. Detected. In addition, the body state includes, for example, facial color, fundus, voice tone, and the like. When the facial color or fundus is handled as a physical state, the mobile device 10 is provided with an imaging unit such as a digital camera, and the facial color and fundus may be captured using this imaging unit. Moreover, what is necessary is just to pick up the sound of a sound with the microphone with which the mobile device 10 is provided.

(3-2) Modification 2
When the predicted calorie consumption is lower than the appropriate calorie consumption, the calorie intake from the meal may be adjusted in addition to urging the consumption to be consumed by exercise. At this time, the medical support server device may include the following restaurant database.
FIG. 12 is a diagram illustrating an example of the contents of the restaurant database. In the restaurant database, names of restaurants scattered in each area, addresses and positions (latitude / longitude), menus provided at the restaurant, and calorie intake are associated. When the medical support server device 40 is considered from the current calorie consumption calculated from the number of steps of the user, when the calorie that the user should consume per day is expected to be less than the appropriate calorie consumption, What is necessary is just to guide the menu of the calorie intake appropriate from the shortage of the calorie consumption from the menu of the restaurant nearest to the user. In addition, even when the user's weight exceeds the appropriate range (when the user is obese), the medical support server device 40 displays a menu of as few calories as possible from the menu of the restaurant nearest to the user. It is possible to guide.

(3-3) Modification 3
Another determination as to whether the physical condition is normal or abnormal may be performed by the mobile device 10 itself, not the medical support server device 40. In this case, the mobile device 10 stores the determination standard value for each type of physical condition in the storage unit 15, and the control unit 16 replaces the control unit 41 of the medical support server device to determine whether the physical condition is normal or abnormal. The determination process is executed.
In addition, the medical support server device 40 (the mobile device 10 when the mobile device itself determines whether the physical state is normal or abnormal) indicates that the user's consent is obtained when the physical state shows an abnormal value. You may make it contact a medical institution (medical institution terminal 50) immediately without obtaining.
Further, when notifying the mobile device 10 of the nearest medical institution, the medical support server device 40 may transmit the treatment history data stored therein to the medical institution terminal 50 of the medical institution. In this way, if the user's treatment history is provided in advance to the medical institution, when the medical institution contacts the user of the mobile device 10 when the physical condition is abnormal, the treatment already obtained is obtained. Appropriate action can be taken immediately with reference to the history.

(3-4) Modification 4
When urging to consume the shortage of expected calories by exercise, the exercise was encouraged on the commuting route, but this may of course be a commuting route. In short, it may be anything that encourages the user to exercise on a regular movement route.

  The computer programs of the mobile device 10 and the medical support server device 40 are magnetic tape, magnetic disk, floppy (registered trademark) disk, optical recording medium, magneto-optical recording medium, CD (Compact Disk), DVD (Digital Versatile Disk). It can be provided in a state of being recorded on a recording medium such as a RAM.
