Benefits of technology

[0008]Another objective of the present invention is to propose an exercise apparatus in interactive communication with a medical service platform, wherein while the exercise apparatus is communicated with the medical service platform, the medical service platform is enabled to acquire exercise data of a medical-care recipient from the exercise apparatus and the medical-care recipient's identification data, and timely issue suggestions for improving or maintaining the medical-care recipient's health in a form of a text message for the medical-care recipient to read, so that a medical-service provider can provide the medical-care recipient with updated professional suggestions and assistance.
[0009]Another objective of the present invention is to propose an exercise apparatus in interactive communication with a medical service platform, wherein when the exercise apparatus is applied to remote home-care, it is possible to actively acquire a medical-care recipient's exercise state and even to urge the medical-care recipient to fulfill a predetermined exercise load, so as to “maintain” and “improve” the medical-care recipient's physical and mental health.

Problems solved by technology

While the foregoing system helps for achieving short-range goals of remote home-care services, namely “controlling and maintaining” medical-care recipients' “physical health” by medical means, it unfortunately provides no approach to long-range goals of remote home-care services, namely “maintaining” and “improving” medical-care recipients'“physical and mental health”.
However, as for home-care applications, information about medical-care recipients' exercise conditions is still not accessible.

Embodiment Construction

[0013]Referring to FIG. 1, an exercise apparatus in interactive communication with a medical service platform according to the present invention comprises the exercise apparatus 40, a central control system 42, a data conversion unit 41, an exercise data storage unit 10, an ID data unit 30, a physiological data unit 33, an external data input unit 37, an alarm unit 36, a communication unit 31, and a suggestion receiver unit 35.

[0014]The exercise apparatus 40 is substantially an exercise device for a medical-care recipient to actively operate, such as a spinning bike. Alternatively, the exercise apparatus 40 may be an exercise device for a medical-care recipient to take passive exercise, such as a gymnastic bicycle that mechanically drives a medical-care recipient's legs to perform reciprocal movements. The exercise apparatus 40 also may include a pedometer that counts each step a person takes or a video game console that is connected with a multimedia electronic device and trains pl...

Abstract

An exercise apparatus in interactive communication with a medical service platform serves to convert movements of the exercise apparatus into accessible exercise data and transmit the exercise data and data about a medical-care-recipient's ID to the medical service platform.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]1. Technical Field[0002]The present invention relates to an exercise apparatus that enable an interactive communication between a medical-care recipient and a medical-service provider. More particularly, the exercise apparatus of the present invention serves to transmit exercise data it acquires to a medical service platform of a medical-service provider and receive suggestion data from the medical service platform.[0003]2. Description of Related Art[0004]In recent years, more and more researches have been made on remote home-care services in the attempt to provide medical-care recipients with more convenient and effective services for health management and health care by integrating information technology and communication technology. In Europe, North America, and Japan, there are many remote home-care systems becoming commercially available. Theses remote home-care systems are usually designed for chronic patients and serve to perform long-term phy...
