Detailed Description

A health support system 1 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure will be described with reference to the drawings.

Fig. 1 is a schematic diagram of a health support system 1 according to the present embodiment.

Fig. 2 is a block diagram of the wearable device 10 and the portable terminal device 20 of the health support system 1.

The health support system 1 of the present embodiment includes: a wearable device 10 of a wrist band type, and a portable terminal device 20 such as a smartphone. The wearable device 10 and the portable terminal device 20 are connected by short-range wireless communication or the like, and perform information communication with each other. The wearable device 10 of the present embodiment is not limited to a wrist band type such as a wristwatch, and may be of various types such as a clip type, a band type, and a smart glasses type. The portable terminal device 20 may be a multifunctional portable terminal such as a tablet computer, or various devices such as a personal computer.

The wearable device 10 includes: a body temperature measuring unit 11, a heart rate measuring unit 12, a blood pressure measuring unit 13, an activity amount calculating unit 14, a communication unit 15, a storage unit 16, and a display unit 17.

The body temperature measuring unit 11 measures the body temperature of the user. The heart rate measuring unit 12 measures the heart rate of the user per unit time. The blood pressure measuring unit 13 measures the blood pressure of the user. The measurement methods of the body temperature measurement unit 11, the heart rate measurement unit 12, and the blood pressure measurement unit 13 are not limited as long as the body temperature, the heart rate, and the blood pressure of the user can be effectively measured. In addition, the body temperature measuring unit 11 can measure 0 to 50 ℃ as a measured value, the heart rate measuring unit 12 can measure 0 to 200 times/minute as a measured value, and the blood pressure measuring unit 13 can measure 0 to 300mmHg as a measured value. The body temperature measuring unit 11, the heart rate measuring unit 12, and the blood pressure measuring unit 13 may perform measurement at all times or at predetermined time intervals (for example, 1 minute or 1 hour).

The activity amount calculation unit 14 calculates the amount of activity (the number of steps, the amount of exercise (energy consumption), and the like) of the user. The activity amount calculation unit 14 includes an acceleration sensor, a GPS (Global Positioning System) sensor, and the like, and calculates the number of steps or the amount of exercise based on information from these sensors. The activity calculation unit 14 calculates the sleep time of the user based on the acceleration sensor and the heart rate.

The communication unit 15 performs wireless communication with the communication unit 21 of the portable terminal device 20, and transmits the measurement values measured by the body temperature measurement unit 11, the heart rate measurement unit 12, and the blood pressure measurement unit 13, and information such as the amount of physical activity and the sleep time calculated by the activity amount calculation unit 14 to the portable terminal device 20. The information transmitted by the communication unit 15 also includes time information indicating the time at which each measurement value, the exercise amount, and the sleep time is measured.

The storage unit 16 stores: the measurement values measured by the body temperature measuring unit 11, the heart rate measuring unit 12, and the blood pressure measuring unit 13, and information such as the amount of physical activity and the sleep time calculated by the activity amount calculating unit 14. The information stored in the storage unit 16 also includes time information indicating the time at which each measurement value, exercise amount, and sleep time is measured. The communication unit 15 transmits the information stored in the storage unit 16 to the portable terminal device 20.

The display unit 17 is a display such as a liquid crystal display or an organic EL display, and displays: the measurement values measured by the body temperature measuring unit 11, the heart rate measuring unit 12, and the blood pressure measuring unit 13, and the amount of physical activity, the sleep time, the time of day, and the like calculated by the physical activity amount calculating unit 14.

The mobile terminal device 20 includes: communication unit 21, storage unit 22, display unit 23, and control unit 30.

The communication unit 21 receives the measurement value, the activity amount, the sleep time, and other information transmitted from the communication unit 15 of the wearable device 10, and transmits the received information to the control unit 30 and the storage unit 22. The storage unit 22 stores: information transmitted from the communication unit 21, and data, programs, etc. processed by the control unit 30. The display unit 23 is a touch panel display such as a liquid crystal display or an organic EL display, displays an image transmitted from the control unit 30, receives an operation by a user, and transmits a signal corresponding to the received operation to the control unit 30. The storage unit 22 stores an application program of a program to be executed by the control unit 30, which will be described later, and the display unit 23 displays an icon a corresponding to the application program.

The control Unit 30 is, for example, a CPU (Central Processing Unit), and includes: an acquisition unit 31, a reference value determination unit 32, a health information generation unit 33, an analysis unit 34, an abnormality information determination unit 35, an option control unit 36, an improvement information control unit 37, and a day control unit 38.

The acquisition unit 31 acquires a plurality of kinds of information on the health of the user from the wearable device 10. Specifically, the acquisition unit 31 acquires information such as a measurement value and an activity amount from the wearable device 10. The information includes: information on the measurement values measured by the body temperature measuring unit 11, the heart rate measuring unit 12, and the blood pressure measuring unit 13 immediately before acquisition, and information stored in the storage unit 16. The information acquired from the storage unit 16 is, for example, information of a past one week period. The timing at which the acquiring unit 31 acquires these pieces of information may be when the user touches the icon a to start the application, or may be when the user touches a touch icon for grasping the health status when the user desires to grasp the health status of the user after the application is started.

The reference value determination section 32 determines a reference value for determining whether or not the health state of the user is abnormal. For example, the reference value of the body temperature is calculated by taking the average value of the body temperature of the past week around the current time as the reference value. Instead of the current time, the average value of the body temperatures of the past week at the predetermined time may be calculated as a reference value, or the average value of all the body temperatures during the past week may be calculated as a reference value. As described later, the user may calculate the reference value using only the body temperature on the desired day of the week. The reference value is calculated similarly for the blood pressure. The blood pressure is systolic blood pressure (maximum blood pressure). The storage unit 22 stores an ideal exercise amount during one week and an ideal sleep time during one day, for example, based on age, and the exercise amount and the sleep time are used as reference values. The reference values of the exercise amount and the sleep time may be set by the user.

The health information generating unit 33 generates health information on the health status of the user based on the acquisition information acquired by the acquiring unit 31, and causes the display unit 23 to display the health information. The health information refers to the radar chart R shown in fig. 3 relating to the health status of the user. The radar map R shows the result of comparison of the measured values with the reference values for body temperature, blood pressure (systolic blood pressure), sleep time, and exercise amount.

The measured values include body temperature and blood pressure at the present time, sleep time of the previous day, and exercise amount of the past week. The user can see the radar chart R at a glance, so that the current health state of the user can be grasped. As shown in fig. 3, the measured values and reference values of the body temperature, blood pressure, sleep time, and exercise amount may be displayed together with the radar map R.

Note that the health information on the health state of the user may be an icon F of a human face as shown in fig. 4, instead of the radar map R of fig. 3. In the icon F, the result of comparison between the reference value and the measurement value is represented by the color of the face F1 for body temperature, the result of comparison between the reference value and the measurement value is represented by the angle of the eyebrows F2 for blood pressure, the result of comparison between the reference value and the measurement value is represented by the degree of opening of the eyes F3 for sleep time, and the result of comparison between the reference value and the measurement value is represented by the outline of the face F4 for exercise amount. As shown in fig. 4, the measurement values and reference values of body temperature, blood pressure, sleep time, and exercise amount may be displayed together with the icon F.

For example, regarding the body temperature, if the current body temperature is about the same as the reference value, the color of the face F1 is a skin color, if the current body temperature is higher than the reference value, the color of the face F1 is red, and if the current body temperature is lower than the reference value, the color of the face F1 is blue. Regarding the blood pressure, if the current blood pressure is about the same as the reference value, the angle of the eyebrows F2 is horizontal, if the current blood pressure is higher than the reference value, the angle of the eyebrows F2 is a shape with both ends raised (inverted figure of eight), and if the current blood pressure is lower than the reference value, the angle of the eyebrows F2 is a shape with both ends dropped (figure of eight). As for the sleep time, if the sleep time of the previous day is the same as the reference value, the degree of opening of the eye F3 is in a normal state, if the sleep time of the previous day is longer than the reference value, the eye F3 is in a state of being widely opened, and if the sleep time of the previous day is shorter than the reference value, the eye F3 is in a semi-closed state. Regarding the motion amount, if the motion amount of one week in the past is about the same as the reference value, the contour of the face F4 is about the same as the user face contour, if the motion amount of one week in the past is more than the reference value, the contour of the face F4 is narrower, and if the motion amount of one week in the past is less than the reference value, the contour of the face F4 is wider. In this way, a part of the face icon F changes depending on the value of the corresponding health-related type of information. Thus, the user can see the icon F at a glance to grasp the current health status of the user.

The analysis unit 34 analyzes whether or not there is an abnormality in the health status of the user based on the information acquired by the acquisition unit 31. For example, the analysis unit 34 determines that the body temperature is low if the body temperature is lower than 36.0 ℃, determines that the body temperature is micro fever if the body temperature is 36.8 to 37.0 ℃, determines that the body temperature is fever if the body temperature is 37.0 to 38.5 ℃, and determines that the body temperature is high fever if the body temperature is 38.5 ℃ or more, i.e., determines that the body temperature is abnormal. If the blood pressure is lower than 100mmHg, the analyzer 34 determines that the blood pressure is low blood pressure, and if the blood pressure is higher than 140mmHg, the analyzer 34 determines that the blood pressure is high, that is, it determines that the blood pressure is abnormal. If the sleeping time is shorter than 5 hours, the sleep is judged to be insufficient, namely the sleeping time is judged to be abnormal. If the quantity of motion is less than 500kcal, it is judged that the motion is insufficient, that is, it is judged that there is an abnormality in the quantity of motion.

When the analysis unit 34 determines that there is an abnormality in the health state of the user, the abnormality information determination unit 35 determines information relating to the abnormality and displays a character string indicating the information relating to the abnormality on the display unit 23. For example, in the healthy state of the radar chart R shown in fig. 3, the blood pressure is low than 100mmHg and therefore hypotension, the sleep time is short than 5 hours and therefore it is insufficient, and "hypotension" and "insufficient sleep" are determined as information relating to abnormality, and the display unit 23 is caused to display "insufficient sleep and hypotension". "is a character string M indicating information on an abnormality. As shown in fig. 5, the abnormality information determination unit 35 displays the character string M on the lower side of the radar chart R. This display processing is executed by combining information on an abnormality on a prescribed template.

The option control unit 36 displays a plurality of option icons C1 to C3 selectable by the user for improving the information on the abnormality on the display unit 23. As shown in fig. 5, the option control part 36 displays diet C1, exercise C2, and life C3 as option icons. The user can select at least any one of diet C1, exercise C2, and life C3. After selection, the icon of D is identified by touching, and information for improving the information on the abnormality is displayed on the display unit 23.

The improvement information control unit 37 displays the improvement information corresponding to the option icon selected by the user on the display unit 23. The improvement information corresponding to the option icon selected by the user is determined based on the improvement information table T of fig. 6. The improvement information table T is stored in the storage unit 22. The improvement information table T includes a first table T1 and a second table T2. The first table T1 is a table in which improvement methods for "low body temperature", "slight fever", "fever", and "high fever" by "diet", "exercise", and "life" are associated with each other. The second table T2 is a table in which improvement methods for "improving hypotension", "hypertension", "sleep deficiency", and "lack of exercise" by "diet", "exercise", and "life" are associated with each other.

For example, as shown in fig. 5, when the information on the abnormality is "insufficient sleep" and "low blood pressure", if the user selects the life C3, "please sleep early and early" is displayed on the display unit 23. Please ensure sleep for more than 7 hours. ". Here, the improvement information control unit 37 may cause the display unit 23 to perform the display at a predetermined time. For example, the display unit 23 may display "please sleep early and get up early at about 10 o' clock later. And please ensure sleep for more than 7 hours. In addition, when the information on the abnormality is "hypotension" and the user selects diet C1, display unit 23 may display "please eat three meals" at 6 am, 11 am, and 6 pm.

Further, the display unit 17 of the wearable device 10 may perform these displays. When the wearable device 10 and/or the portable terminal device 20 has an alarm function, the display may be performed in conjunction with the alarm function.

The day control unit 38 causes the display unit 23 to display day selection information for the user to select a plurality of day of the week. When the day selection icon is provided and the user touches the icon, "monday", "tuesday", "wednesday", "thursday", "friday", "saturday" and "sunday" are displayed on the display section 23, the user is asked to select the day of the week which is not used in the calculation of the reference value. For example, in the case where the user is working on monday through friday, and is resting on saturday and sunday, saturday and sunday are selected because the values of body temperature, blood pressure are different on monday through friday, and saturday and sunday. The reference value determination unit 32 calculates the reference value without using the values of saturday and sunday when calculating the reference values of body temperature and blood pressure. Further, the user may be requested to select the day of the week used for calculation of the reference value, and the reference value may be calculated using the value of the selected day of the week.

According to the health support system 1 as described above, the health information generating unit 33 generates the health information on the health state of the user based on the information acquired by the acquiring unit 31, and causes the display unit 23 to display the health information. The health information is: radar chart R (fig. 3) or icon F (fig. 4) of a human face relating to the health of the user. Thus, the user can see the radar map R or the face icon F at a glance to grasp the current health status of the user.

When the analysis unit 34 determines that there is an abnormality in the health state of the user, the abnormality information determination unit 35 determines information relating to the abnormality and displays a character string indicating the information relating to the abnormality on the display unit 23. Thus, the user can grasp the current health status of the user by reading the character string.

The option control unit 36 displays a plurality of options C1 to C3 that can be selected by the user for improving the information on the abnormality on the display unit 23. The plurality of options include a diet option (diet C1) regarding diet, a sport option (sport C2) regarding sport, and a lifestyle option (lifestyle C3) regarding lifestyle habits. Thus, the user can select a desired improvement method.

The improvement information control unit 37 causes the display unit 23 to display information (information for improving the abnormality) on the option selected by the user at a predetermined time. This can prompt the user to take action to improve the abnormality at an appropriate time.

The reference value determination unit 32 calculates a reference value for determining whether or not the health state of the user is abnormal in the analysis unit 34, based on the day of the week selected by the user, using the body temperature and the blood pressure of the user acquired by the acquisition unit 31. Thus, the abnormality determination accuracy can be improved because it is possible to exclude the life rhythm from the normal day of the week when calculating the reference value.

Further, the present disclosure is not limited to the above-described embodiments. Those skilled in the art can make various additions, modifications, and the like within the scope of the present disclosure.

For example, instead of the health support system 1, a wearable device 110 as shown in fig. 7 may be configured, which has all the configurations of the wearable device 10 and the portable terminal device 20. The band-type wearable device 110 is provided with, over substantially the entire outer peripheral surface thereof: a touch display of organic EL that can be bent and extended as the display portion 123. Information such as a radar chart R relating to the health status of the user is displayed on the display unit 123. The display unit 17 and the storage unit 16 of the wearable device 10 may be absent from the wearable terminal 110.

As shown in the health support system 201 of fig. 8, the control unit 230 of the portable terminal device 220 may include a blood vessel analysis unit 39. For example, it is possible to capture an image (still image or moving image) of a blood vessel (capillary vessel) such as a fingertip of a user by using a device capable of capturing an image of the blood vessel, and transmit information of the blood vessel image to the wearable device 10 by short-range wireless communication or the like, and store the information in the storage unit 16. The blood vessel analysis unit 39 analyzes the blood vessel based on the information of the blood vessel image acquired by the acquisition unit 31 from the wearable device 10.

In this analysis, a plurality of types of blood vessel elements such as length (μm), thickness (μm), number of bends (number of parts bent at an angle of a predetermined degree or more)/mm), sharpness (brightness), and the like are analyzed to determine whether or not there is an abnormality in the blood vessel. This determination may be made by integrating all of the above-described blood vessel elements, or may be made based on any one or more of the above-described blood vessel elements. For example, if the sharpness (brightness) is smaller than a predetermined determination value, it is determined that the blood vessel state is abnormal. As shown in fig. 9, an axis related to blood vessel information may be set in the radar map R. In fig. 9, the sharpness of a relatively healthy blood vessel is set to 3 as a reference value of the blood vessel state. In addition, an improvement method for the "blood vessel state" abnormality may be provided in the improvement information table T and may be displayed on the display unit 23.

Instead of providing the blood vessel analysis unit 39 in the control unit 230 of the portable terminal device 220, the blood vessel image may be transmitted from the wearable device 10 to a server device, not shown, having blood vessel analysis software via a communication network such as the internet, and the wearable device 10 may receive the analysis result from the server device, not shown, and transmit the analysis result from the wearable device 10 to the portable terminal device 220.

As shown by the broken line in fig. 8, the portable terminal device 220 may be provided with a camera 24 capable of capturing an image, and the blood vessel analyzing unit 39 may capture an image of a blood vessel of a fingertip of the user by attaching a microscope accessory 40 having a magnifying lens 41 and a light source 42 to the camera 24.

In addition to body temperature, blood pressure, and blood vessel state, information on saliva, oral cavity state, perspiration amount, urine component, blood, and the like may be acquired and analyzed. The wearable device 10 or 110 or the portable terminal device 20 itself may measure the information, or the information measured by another device may be provided to the wearable device 10 or 110 or the portable terminal device 20.
