A general method for data communication between a mobile management terminal and various household medical instruments

Abstract

The invention discloses a universal method for data communication among a mobile management side and multiple household medical instruments. Data transmission among household medical health equipment (including a blood pressure instrument, a glucometer, a weighing machine and a thermometer) and a mobile side management system is realized. After acquiring data, mobile equipment (such as a mobile phone and a tablet personal computer) can transmit the data to a server side to record, analyze and manage. The method describes the following processes: connection is established between medical equipment and a management system; the medical equipment transmits data to the system; and connection is disconnected after transmission is completed; and a unified format in a data transmission process is provided. The method disclosed by the invention is simple to realize, and can be integrated in the existing household medical equipment and applied to acquiring and managing data of the household medical equipment.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of medical instrument data communication, specifically a connection and transmission between a personal medical terminal device and a mobile device (such as a mobile phone, a tablet computer), and is especially suitable for existing household medical equipment, including blood pressure meters, blood sugar Instruments, weighing scales and thermometers, etc. Background technique [0002] my country's economy is developing day by day, and the trend of population aging is gradually serious. In order to prevent problems before they happen, household medical equipment (blood pressure meter, blood glucose meter, weight scale and thermometer) have been widely used, followed by home health equipment on the market become diverse. With the development of Internet technology, it has become a new trend to use mobile management terminals to collect and store the measurement results of health devices, and then upload them to remote ...

Problems solved by technology

At present, most of the medical devices provided by various medical companies have their own mobile management terminals. This method has a serious problem that the data measurement unit and format between each health device and the terminal are not uniform, and the transmission methods of each medical device are different. As a result, there are great obstacles in collecting data, and the IEEE 11073 standard came into being

[0003] However, although IEEE 11073 proposes a set of data format and transmission rules for health devices and mobile management terminals, this standard has not been widely used. The reasons are: First, the 11073 protocol defines all involved objects (such as events, Configuration information, finite machine status, data packet type, etc.), and uniformly encode these objects, all data needs to be represented by these predefined objects, making the definition of data very cumbersome and complicated; second, 11073 It is necessary to encapsulate the data layer by layer, support complex expansion configuration methods, and support various data organization forms, all of which need to be sent from the medical device to the management terminal

The management side analyzes the incoming data according to the configuration information, which makes the data transmission volume very large and the processing difficulty is also high; third, due to the complexity of implementation, 11073 has high requirements on the hardware environment of health devices, while the existing Most of the home health equipment is still based on a simple hardware environment, such as an eight-bit single-chip microcomputer, and the IEEE11073 standard cannot be implemented under such hardware resources

Based on these reasons, most medical equipment manufacturers still choose to abandon the adoption of IEEE 11073 and do their own thing, resulting in a large number of inconsistencies in the software of the mobile management terminal that collects data.
