(First embodiment)
FIG. 1 shows a configuration diagram of the health terminal apparatus according to the first embodiment of the present invention.

  In FIG. 1, the health terminal device 101 collects patient biometric data and inquiry answers. The Internet network 102 relays communication between the health terminal device 101 and the server 103. The server 103 stores the patient's biological information and provides the patient's biological information in response to an inquiry from the doctor terminal 104. The doctor terminal 104 allows the doctor to browse or register the patient's biological information and inquiry answer information. The measuring unit 201 causes the patient to measure the blood glucose level and the blood pressure value, and receives and stores the biological information measured by the patient. The inquiry means 202 displays the inquiry registered by the doctor, makes the patient answer, and stores the answer result of the patient. The line communication means 203 is connected to the Internet network 102 and communicates with a server that stores biometric information and medical inquiry information. The schedule control unit 204 controls the measurement unit 201 and the inquiry unit 202 based on the schedule registered by the doctor using the doctor terminal 104, and causes the patient to measure and answer the inquiry at a predetermined time. 205 registers in the doctor terminal 104. Stored schedule information is stored. The schedule result judging means 206 judges the measurement result and the inquiry result received by the patient by the schedule control means 204 based on the conditions preset in the doctor terminal 104 and changes the schedule contents.

  About the health terminal device comprised as mentioned above, operation | movement of this invention is demonstrated in detail.

  The patient measures the blood glucose level and blood pressure with the blood glucose meter 210 or the blood pressure meter 211. After measurement, this is transmitted to the health terminal apparatus 101. The health terminal apparatus 101 transmits the received measurement value to the server 103 via the Internet network 102. The server 103 stores this measured value. As a result, the doctor can access the server 103 from the doctor terminal 104 via the Internet network 102 to know the patient's biological information. When a doctor wants to register an inquiry with a patient, he / she registers an inquiry from the doctor terminal 104 to the server 103. This inquiry is downloaded by the health terminal device 101 via the Internet network 102 and asks the patient to answer the inquiry. The answer result is uploaded by the health terminal device 101 to the server 103 via the Internet network 102. The doctor can view the answer result using the doctor terminal 104. In addition to these patients actively performing measurements and interview responses, there is also a function that allows patients to do this by setting the measurement contents and interview contents preset by the doctor to be performed at a predetermined time. .

  This is because the measurement / interview schedule registered by the doctor using the doctor terminal 104 is downloaded via the Internet network 102 and the line communication means 203 and stored in the schedule storage means 205, and the schedule control means 204 notifies the patient of this at a predetermined time. It is something to make. In the schedule information at that time, not only the measurement contents, the inquiry contents, and the schedule time information, but also condition value information for changing the next schedule contents depending on the measurement results and the contents of the inquiry answers is set.

  An example of an actual interview will be described with reference to FIGS. In this explanation, the metabolic syndrome is taken as an example. According to the metabolic syndrome diagnosis criteria, the waist circumference is greater than or equal to a predetermined size, and the subject is defined as two or more subjects of serum lipid abnormality, high blood pressure, and hyperglycemia.

  FIG. 2 is a flowchart in a conventional example as a comparative example, and FIG. 3 is a flowchart in the first embodiment of the present invention.

  In FIG. 2, the schedule registered by the doctor is simply blood glucose measurement 201, blood pressure measurement 202, and interview 203, and there is no abnormality in the first blood glucose measurement 201 and the second blood pressure measurement 202, and the interview 203 is unnecessary. Even in this case, it was only possible to cause the patient to answer the question 203 as registered.

  On the other hand, in the health terminal device according to the first embodiment of the present invention, as shown in FIG. 3, when the schedule is first started, blood glucose measurement 301 is prompted to the patient. This schedule occurrence time is set when hungry before cooking. If the patient's blood glucose level is 110 mg / dL or more, the blood pressure measurement 302 is performed next because there is a possibility of metabolic syndrome. If the result is a maximum blood pressure of 130 mmHg or higher or a minimum blood pressure of 85 mmHg or higher, a message “There is a possibility of metabolic syndrome. If the blood glucose measurement 301 is less than 110 mg / dL, it is determined that there is no abnormality, and an inquiry 304 is executed as “not related to metabolic syndrome”. This schedule menu is intended for patients who have a waist circumference but do not have serum lipid abnormalities.

(Second Embodiment)
Next, a health terminal device according to a second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to a flowchart (FIG. 4).

  When the schedule is started, first answer “I hurt my throat?” In the interview 401. If “No”, the process proceeds to the next interview 404 as it is. However, if yes, suspect influenza and then cause body temperature measurement 402 to be performed. If this is not 39 ° C., it is judged that the throat has only been hurt due to the dryness of the atmosphere, and the routine proceeds to an inquiry 404. If it is 39 ° C or higher, go to Advice 403 and suspect flu. Message to go to the hospital.

  According to such a health terminal device of the embodiment of the present invention, not only the patient can simply make the measurement / interview menu scheduled by the doctor, but also the menu content can be changed according to the measurement result and answer content of the patient. By doing so, the burden can be reduced without causing the patient to make unnecessary measurements and answers.

  As described above, the health terminal device according to the present invention not only makes the measurement and inquiry menu scheduled by the doctor simple for the patient, but also determines the menu contents by the schedule result determination means according to the measurement result and answer contents of the patient. By making it change, a burden can be reduced, without making a patient perform unnecessary measurement and an answer.
