However, the maximum blood pressure and the minimum blood pressure are detected by the blood pressure measuring device 6 that electronically detects the sounds generated when the maximum blood pressure and the minimum blood pressure are detected, and the pressure change caused by the delivery of blood to the artery part of the wrist is detected. The pressure-sensitive pulse measuring device 7 is attached, and the number of pressure changes occurring within the unit time width is detected as the pulse rate.
When the diagnostic device 9 determines that the measurement value measured in the toilet 1 is abnormal, a warning is displayed on the CRT or the liquid crystal display panel 3 and the emergency medical center 11 and the health management center 10 are displayed. Call. Further, it is sent to the lunch center 13 through the health management center 10, where a meal menu is created based on the measurement result, or the food menu is sent to the foodstuff distribution center 12 to prepare cooked meals corresponding to the measurement result. It is delivered to the home, and in each home, a heating process or the like is performed by the home cooking device 14.
In this way, the health management system of Patent Document 1 can transmit the information to a medical institution or the like to take emergency measures when the physical condition of the person is abnormal. Further, it is possible to transfer the diagnosis result to an institution that provides lunch, instruct a meal menu based on the measurement result, or provide food materials. Therefore, it is possible to support dietary therapy for adult patients, calorie control for healthy people, and diet.
