It may include information set to be delivered to the expert hotline system 450 and the like. Accordingly, when the controller 550 receives the data from the biometric system 300, the controller 550 refers to schedule information to transfer the corresponding information to the mobile phone 420 of the specialist, or the cloud system 440 or the PC 410. It may determine whether to deliver to the TV 420 or another user's mobile phone 420, expert hotline system 450. In this process, the controller 550 may control to encrypt and transmit the corresponding information using a security algorithm stored in the H / W security chip 530.

In addition, the controller 550 may include ID information for identifying who the data transmitted from the biometric system 300 is in the corresponding data and transmit the same. To this end, each component included in the biometric system 300 may include unique ID information for each user, and includes a blood pressure monitor 310, a thermometer 320, a weight scale 330, included in the biometric system 300. The pulse meter 340, the heart rate monitor 350, the blood glucose meter 360, and the like may transmit unique ID information for user identification or authentication upon data transfer. When data is transmitted from the biometric system 300, the controller 550 may classify the information according to the unique ID information, and include the unique ID information in the classified information and transmit the data to the communication support system 400.

In this case, the integrated gateway device 500 may support point-to-point connection between the components of the biometric system 300 or the other systems 100 and 200 or between the devices allocated to each user or system.

It is preferable to use Health Level 7 (HL7) as the standard format. The HL7 message is defined as a message delivery protocol for documenting and electronizing all medical information such as documents, messages, image data, etc. used in the medical field. This defines all the messages used in the medical field such as hospitals, and includes the patient's hospitalization / discharge, transcript, query, medical results, appointment, maternity, insurance and clinical documentation. Data provided by the other systems 100 and 200 may also be transmitted according to a certain form or standard according to a request of a receiving server for receiving the corresponding data. The integrated gateway device 500 may convert the corresponding data based on information previously defined for each data transmission standard and support the transmission thereof.
