Abstract

PURPOSE:To make a contact and a notice to a medical agency or the like on the occurrence of abnormity of a human body by mounting a sensor, a cordless telephone set and a CPU to the human body and activating a receiver connecting to a telephone line. CONSTITUTION:A CPU 8 stores health management data in the normal state of the user corresponding to a sensor 7 and sets a management time for the output of the sensor 7. The CPU 8 finding out abnormity through the comparison between measured data of the sensor 7 and stored data informs the abnormity to the user through an alarm 9. The user discriminates contents of the abnormity and releases the operation of the CPU 8 by using a button 7 or activates a cordless telephone set circuit 10 to allow a radio wave to be emitted from an antenna 11. A receiver side main body 4 installed in advance receives a radio wave signal via a reception antenna 6. The receiver side main body 4 uses the radio wave signal to deliver a message having been recorded in advance to a medical agency or a welfare center or the like through a telephone line 5.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION The present invention is intended to help elderly people, persons with disabilities, other people with disabilities, women living alone, etc., to lead healthy and safe lives at any time in the coming aging society. It is about the system that becomes.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art When an elderly person, who lives alone, suddenly feels sick, he or she is discovered one or two days later, leading to death. Also, according to H04M 11/04 page 453, there was a mobile radio type emergency call system with the push of a button. There was also a medical examination system using a videophone. There was also a single thermometer, blood pressure monitor, exercise meter, and cordless answering machine.

[0003]

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] As the aging society advances from now on, it will be difficult for all people to enter welfare facilities such as nursing homes, and rather, more people will be able to enjoy old age at home. Currently, there are hospitals that provide home-based medical examinations and medical treatments for elderly people using videophones, company organizations that perform cancer screenings by mail, and medical systems that use communication that does not require much labor and does not cost much. However, no matter how many times doctors receive regular medical examinations, people may suddenly fall or have a seizure when they return home from the hospital. Before I go and press the button, I fall down, in the bathroom,
For the sudden illness of an old man living alone who loses consciousness while sleeping, the conventional telephone system was useless because there were no buttons at hand. In addition, there is a system (H04M 11/04 453) developed for the fire gas leak of a portable radio transmitter like the present invention, but it does not have a function of measuring the physical condition, and in case of Nouchi bleeding or When you have a heart attack,
It was difficult to press the button because of lowering consciousness. In addition, 24-hour full-time nursing and nursing care at hospitals and the like were problematic due to the lack of human resources for 24 hours and social shortage of nurses. Also, in terms of health management, the conventional system has a problem in fuzzy medical diagnosis in which each function is independent and complicated. That is, for example, it is difficult to distinguish the situation where the person's consciousness is lowered with a conventional single medical device, and since it is not cordless, it becomes large and cannot be attached all the time. With the cordless notification system attached, it is difficult to grasp the timing of pressing the button, and it is too useful and anxious. This is because there are not many people who have called 119 and the like, most of them are new to us, and we may be a little psychologically hesitant. While following such changes in the psychological state, there is a sudden loss of consciousness. In addition, in general, the person himself or herself does not understand such a foresight. Therefore, with various medical instruments such as blood pressure monitors of major electronics manufacturers, and conventional portable wireless notification systems that only push the emergency button, the functions of the elderly living alone are hardly useful. Not available in a really needed emergency. In addition, it is often the case that the measured value when a person is healthy is observed without measuring when necessary.
However, the doctor did not receive detailed information about his health or emergency, and conventional medical examinations such as just watching a videophone did not provide the necessary medical examinations. Also,
Even if you do not live alone, it is difficult to take care of your family members, such as elderly people and people with disabilities, for 24 hours. In addition, it is difficult for home helpers to become economically aging as the number of young people will decrease in an aging society. As for claim 3, for the human body, the environment in which one lives is also important for health management. Some things, such as young people, who have normal nerves, are difficult for older people to understand, and some people, for example, die from carbon monoxide poisoning. Also, the color and shape of defecation may not be visible. An old man, like a child, could get lost and even get lost, and his family would later go find him. In addition, it is difficult for general households, especially those who are relatively old, to understand the multifunctionality without the need for a cordless answering machine, which is considered to be the hit product among the last home appliances in the era from 1980 to the present. Another problem was that it was difficult to operate.

[0004]

According to claim 1 of the present invention,
Ultra-compact structure that can be worn on the body at any time A small and soft cordless phone developed by the digital clock, a thermometer, a blood pressure monitor, a pulse rate monitor, an electrocardiogram monitor, a momentum meter, etc. are combined with each other as needed to save electricity. Read the electrical signal of each element system,
Due to the mutual relationship between the electrical signal during normal times and all the data that has been measured so far (for old people, there is little change), for example, for the person wearing the alarm sound, announcement, light, vibration, etc. Check the surrounding environment for any abnormalities or changes. (In addition, it is important to confirm or not to confirm here. If you make a report only with measured values, you may end up reporting all year round.)
When it is determined that there is no abnormality in your body or surroundings, you will not be notified if you release it toward the button or voice sensor within the set time, but it will not be released within the set time, or another When the emergency button is pressed, the radio signal is transmitted from the product of the present invention, and the emergency message circuit unit attached to the receiving unit which is placed in advance indoors or in another place has a 119 or Set to flow to other numbers based on each measurement data up to. For example, an address, a name, a blood type, a past medical history, and each data measured by the product of the present invention so far are converted into words, data signals, and the like so as to flow to a medical institution, a welfare center, or the like. Moreover, by using the product of the present invention attached to the body as a monitor microphone or a cordless telephone in the field, accurate and quick first aid can be performed.

[0005]

[Function] Each sensor attached to the product of the present invention detects subtle changes in the human body, confirms with the person wearing it by words or an alarm sound, and cancels if the person thinks it is normal. However, if it is not canceled or if an abnormality is felt, there are two or more choices depending on the degree. The first is an emergency button and the second is a medical examination button. The third is
It is a button to call a specialized company organization or elderly care welfare organization as needed in the future. When the emergency button 1 is pressed, or when the alarm sound is not released, 119
The address, name, current pulse, blood pressure, body temperature, etc. are also transmitted in Japanese and other appropriate words at that time, and also transmitted as a signal. At this time, you can listen to the situation on the spot in more detail with the monitor microphone or the cordless telephone. Therefore, ambulances and elderly caregivers can come in quickly. When the medical examination button of 2 is pressed or when it is selected by the sensor etc.,
For the time being, I will call a hospital in a short distance in the area and have a medical examination, but at this time, I can also give detailed information about my address, name, current pulse, body temperature, etc. in Japanese and data signals. It is also possible to discuss the current situation in detail on the telephone and use the microphone part of the telephone as a stethoscope to have a temporary medical examination. After this, decide whether to come to the hospital or visit the hospital again and get medicine. You can easily use the hospital. It will be necessary in an aging society.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An embodiment will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Claim 1 of the product of the present invention is a product to be worn on the body at all times. Therefore, depending on the degree of integration, hardness, individual medical condition and design, etc. The points to wear will be different. First, 1 in FIG. 1 is a part of the head of the human body.
No. 2 is from top to neck, wrist, and 3 in FIG. 1 is from top to chest, abdomen, thigh, and ankle. It seems preferable to incorporate the soft print pattern into a soft material such as silicone so that it can be attached to other places. By the way, some people also need to measure brain waves. Therefore, it may be better to separate the main body and the sensor unit. Therefore, an extension terminal is provided on the main body. However, since it is always worn on the body, it is desirable to use one object as much as possible. For example, if it is attached to the wrist in 2 of FIG. 1, a wristwatch type is conceivable. In the case of the arm, it does not have to be so soft. This is because when you lie down, you will not lose weight and your body will not hurt.
Reference numeral 4 in FIG. 1 is a receiving side main body of the present invention placed indoors or the like. Reference numeral 5 in FIG. 1 is a cable that connects to a telephone line such as NTT, and a modular jack is attached to the end. Reference numeral 6 in FIG. 1 is an antenna attached to the body for receiving radio waves from the product of the present invention. In order to make the portable part of the product of the present invention 7 to 11 of FIG. 2 attached to the body as small as possible, the 4 receiving side main body of FIG. 1 stores signals sent from 10 etc. of FIG. It is better to add a function such as speech to speech.

Since the block diagram of FIG. 2 is also an example, the number of each sensor, voice sensor, and button is not three in 7 of FIG. Since there is an expansion terminal, there are multiple sensors. Data of the body and environment flow from the sensors and buttons of 7 in FIG. 2 to the CPU of 8 in FIG. 2 (including the clock circuit, each control circuit, etc.), but for the time being, test the present invention product for about 3 weeks. If you wear it for a certain period and store the data when you are in good health, malfunctions due to individual differences are unlikely to occur and more accurate judgments can be made.

Reference numeral 9 in FIG. 2 is for issuing an alarm or a word (announcement voice) for notifying the person or people around him when the product of the present invention is judged to be abnormal. When it is not released by the sensor of 7 in FIG. 2 or the will of the person, 1 in FIG.
The cordless telephone circuit of 0 is dialed with a telephone number suitable for each data such as 8 in FIG. 2 and the announcement voice such as 9 in FIG. 2 or 8 in FIG. 2 and the measurement result are converted into a signal or Japanese voice. It is sent from the antenna 11 of 2 and the result is received to prevent howling and turn into voice. However, in order to make 7 to 11 of FIG. 2 attached to the body as small as possible and to reduce the power consumption, and to operate reliably for 24 hours, it is better to transfer a part of the circuit to the receiving side body of FIG.

[0009]

As described above, the cordless health care notification medical device of the present invention is a cordless system that combines various conventional systems to make the lives of elderly people, disabled people, hospital patients, etc. safer and more comfortable. To go.
