Abstract

A system for associating physiological measurements with environmental information corresponding the physiological measurements is disclosed. For example, the environmental information may correspond to the time and location at which the physiological measurements were taken.

Claims (23)

Claims
1. A computer-implemented method comprising: receiving, from a measurement device, data indicative of a physiological measurement of a user; determining metadata associated with the physiological measurement; sending, to a server, the metadata; and receiving, from the server, environmental data based on the metadata.
2. The computer-implemented method of any preceding claim, wherein the metadata includes at least one of: a location at which the physiological measurement was taken; and a time at which the physiological measurement was taken.
3. The computer-implemented method of any preceding claim, comprising sending, to the server, the data indicative of the physiological measurement.
4. The computer-implemented method of claim 3, comprising receiving, from the server, advice for the user based on the data and/or environmental data obtained based on the metadata.
5. The computer-implemented method of any preceding claim, comprising: receiving profile data associated with the user, wherein the profile data comprises a plurality of data points; and sending, to the server, at least one of the plurality of data points of the profile data.
6. The computer-implemented method of any preceding claim, wherein the data indicative of the physiological measurement is received from the measurement device over a wireless data connection.
7. The computer-implemented method of any preceding claim, wherein the measurement device is a spirometer, and the physiological measurement is a volume, flow rate and/or a speed of air expelled by the user.
8. A computer-implemented method comprising: receiving, from a user device, metadata associated with a physiological measurement of a user; sending, to a server, a request for environmental data based on the metadata, wherein the request comprises the metadata; and receiving environmental data based on the metadata.
9. The computer-implemented method of any of claims 8, comprising sending the received environmental data to the user device.
10. The computer-implemented method of any of claims 8 or 9, wherein the metadata includes at least one of: a location at which the physiological measurement was taken; and a time at which the physiological measurement was taken.
11. The computer-implemented method of any of claims 8 to 10, comprising receiving, from the user device, data indicative of the physiological measurement of the user.
12. The computer-implemented method of claim 11 , comprising: determining advice for the user based on the data indicative of the physiological measurement and/or environmental data; and sending, to the user device, the advice.
13. The computer-implemented method of any of claims 11 or 12, comprising receiving, from the user device, at least one data point of profile data.
14. The computer-implemented method of claim 13, comprising: storing, in a database, the data indicative of the physiological measurement, the metadata associated with the physiological measurement, and the at least one data point of profile data; and providing access to the database.
15. The computer-implemented method of any of claim 14, wherein access is provided to a third party and the user is not identifiable when access is provided to the database.
16. The computer-implemented method of claims 8 to 15, wherein the physiological measurement is a volume, flow rate and/or a speed of air expelled by the user.
17. A device comprising a processor configured to perform the steps of the method of any one of claims 1 to 16.
18. A computer-readable storage medium comprising instructions which, when executed by a computer, cause the computer to carry out the steps of the method of any one of claims 1 to 16.
19. A spirometer for measuring lung function of a user, the spirometer comprising: a housing having: a first aperture; a second aperture; and a passageway between the first aperture and the second aperture, wherein the passageway comprises a constriction; and a pressure sensor configured to measure a pressure in the passageway.
20. The spirometer of claim 19, wherein the first aperture is an inlet configured to receive air expelled by the user, and the constriction causes an increase in pressure in the passageway between the inlet and the constriction.
21. The spirometer of any of claims 19 or 20, comprising a processor configured to: determine, based on the measured pressure, data indicative of a volume and/or a speed of air expelled by the user; and send the data to a user device.
22. The spirometer of claim 21 , wherein the data is wirelessly sent to the user device.
23. The spirometer of any of claims 19 to 22, wherein the pressure sensor is configured to measure an increase in pressure in the passageway when the spirometer is in use.
