Since the remaining parts are the same as the remote health care system of FIG. 1, detailed descriptions of the same parts will be omitted. For convenience, only two local centers 270a and 270b are shown. The local centers 270a and 270b are closer to the user side than the call center 220 which is the secondary central station. The local center may have coaches of athletes, not doctors, and thus lack a lot of medical common sense. Complementing such a local center can be performed in the call center 22.

The local centers 270a and 270b analyze the measurement data from the personal health information measuring terminals 200a to 200f and directly provide the medical data as the analysis result to the personal health information measuring terminals 200a to 200f. . Since the treatment data is displayed on the LCD display device (described later) of the personal health care measurement terminal in the form of a text message, the user can immediately know his or her current state of health without going directly to the hospital.

On the other hand, if the medical data as the result of the analysis is difficult for the user to understand easily, or if it is necessary for some other reason, and there is no intention of explaining the contents of the medical data to the local centers 270a and 270b, When only an exercise coach exists, the medical center transmits the diagnosis data from the local centers 270a and 270b to the call center 220 where the doctor resides directly through the communication network 230 or the public telephone network 240. You can request an explanation of the contents of the data.

In the preferred embodiment of the present invention, as will be described later, the personal health information measuring terminal has three operation modes (recording mode). That is, it includes an event mode for recording only when the measurement is desired, a loop mode for recording for a predetermined time before and after the measurement, and a continuous mode for continuously recording for a predetermined period of time. have.

The operation of the system in the event mode will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG. 4A. In the present invention, the health indicator, as mentioned above, pulse data, blood pressure data, oxygen saturation data, body temperature data, electrocardiogram data, body fat percentage data, blood sugar data, electrolyte data, general chemical test data, etc. Can be. For convenience of explanation, the following uses a pulse as a health indicator.

First, in order to measure the pulse, a pulse measuring sensor is attached to the personal health information terminal of the present invention, and after selecting a pulse menu using a touch pen (not shown) or the like on the LCD display device, When a pulse measuring sensor is installed to measure a pulse, measurement data indicating a pulse is output from the personal health information terminal (ST10). The measurement data is input to the microprocessor unit (described later), and the microprocessor unit determines whether the value of the input measurement data is within the allowable range (ST20), and if it is within the allowable range, for example, it is abnormal to the state of health of the body. This absence is indicated on the LCD display. If necessary, the measurement data may be stored in a memory (ST21).

On the other hand, if the value of the measurement data does not fall within the allowable range, the microprocessor unit indicates an abnormal value on the LCD display device and generates an alarm sound or vibration by driving an alarm (described later). Then, the value of the measured data is stored in a storage device such as a memory (ST30). Here, when the user interprets the value of the measurement data and the state judgment is not necessary, that is, when the pulse is recognized to be abnormal by exercise, climbing, or extreme movement, the user resets the measurement and enters the standby state (ST41). If the pulse does not fall within the allowable range due to exercise or climbing rather than the usual situation, it may be regarded as an error of the health indicator (pulse), so consultation is not necessary in this case.

However, when it is determined that the state determination is necessary, the pulse data measured by the user's health information measuring terminal is transmitted to the call center through a communication network (Internet or wired / wireless telephone network) for consultation (ST50). The call center analyzes the pulse data from the user and transmits an analysis code indicating to the user that the observation request is not yet required and continuous observation is required or that the medical examination is required (ST60). Next, after receiving the analysis code, the user can determine whether consultation with a doctor (a primary care physician, a doctor on duty, etc.) is necessary (ST70), and when consultation is necessary, the user can consult with a doctor in a call center (ST80). History, for example, blood pressure normal range, pulse normal range, etc. for each user is registered in the database of the call center. Therefore, the form of counseling is "You have a certain medical history, is there a problem with your blood pressure?" Or "Who is your doctor?" Or the like.

For example, in the continuous mode, blood pressure or pulse rate can be continuously measured, for example, over 24 hours. The measurement data obtained from this continuous measurement is stored in the flash ROM and sent to the local center or call center. The local center can analyze the measurement data obtained from the continuous measurement for 24 hours and send the analysis result obtained from the analysis to the terminal to notify the user. For example, as a result of analyzing the measurement data, a bad arrhythmia may appear several times in the last 24 hours, the pulse may be severely beaten, and the blood pressure may have been high.
