Abstract

A physiological surveillance system includes a wearable device and an application program. The wearable device is wore by the user for detecting the physiological status and the current location of the user, so as to generate a physiological information and a location signal. The application program allows the user to set up a plurality of contact persons and a contact location information for reaching the contact persons. The application program receives and analyzes the physiological information for acquiring a physiological analysis data. When the physiological analysis data exceeds the threshold information, a warning signal is generated. If the user does not shut down the warning signal, the application program captures and compares the location signal and each contact location information, so as to transmit the warning signal and the location signal to the nearest contact person, providing physiological surveillance and mayday functions.

Description

Physiological monitoring system

The invention relates to a monitoring system, especially a physiological monitoring system.

In today's society, the consciousness of pursuing personal health is gradually rising. The traditional data measurement of human physiological health information is mainly measured by a fixed sphygmomanometer or a bulky testing instrument, but this type of testing instrument is not conducive to Convenience of carrying and testing.

In order to facilitate ordinary people to regularly monitor their own health and make the monitoring device easy to carry, there is an increasing number of wearable health monitoring devices on the market today. Generally, wearable health monitoring devices only stop displaying some physiological signs of the user, for example: Heartbeat, blood pressure, or walking distance, etc., can not immediately generate a reminder or send a distress signal according to the monitored physiological signs. As a result, delayed medical treatment may occur.

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention provides a physiological monitoring system that monitors the user's physiological condition by wearing the device. When the user's physiological condition is abnormal, a warning signal will be issued in real time. If the user has appeared unconscious or cannot call for help on his own , The monitoring unit will send the user's location and the distress signal to the closest contact to the user; in order to achieve the effect of monitoring physiological status and distress.

An embodiment of the present invention provides a physiological monitoring system, which includes: a wearable device that provides user wearing, the wearable device has a sensing module, a positioning module, and a transmission module, the sensing module The group detects the user's physiological state to generate a physiological information; the positioning module detects the user's location to generate a position signal; the transmission module outputs the physiological information and the position signal to the outside; and an application program, which It is installed on the cloud server and runs on the mobile terminal. The application is connected to the signal transmission module of the wearable device through the wireless communication function of the mobile terminal. The application has a contact unit and a monitoring unit. Communication information of one of the contacts, the address book unit obtains the location of each contact according to the communication information to generate a contact location information; the monitoring unit provides setting a standard value information, the monitoring unit receives and analyzes the physiological information to generate a physiological Analyze the data. The monitoring unit compares the physiological analysis data with the standard value information. When the physiological analysis data exceeds the standard value information, the monitoring unit generates a warning signal, and the warning signal is transmitted to the wearing device. For the warning signal sent, the monitoring unit retrieves the position signal and each contact position information and compares the position and distance to obtain one of the contact position information closest to the position signal, and notifies the warning signal and the position signal according to the communication information The closest contact.

Through the above, the present invention monitors the user's physiological condition by wearing the device. When the user's physiological condition is abnormal, a warning signal will be issued in real time to remind the user to pay attention to their own condition or seek medical treatment as soon as possible. Or when unable to call for help on its own, the monitoring unit will send the user's location and warning signal to the closest contact to the user when the user has not canceled the warning signal; thereby, the effect of monitoring physiological state and calling for help can be achieved. Furthermore, the conventional wearable health monitoring device can only detect physiological symbols, and cannot promptly generate a reminder or call for help when the physiological symbols are abnormal.
