[0023] The present embodiment is described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. In addition, the same or equivalent parts in the drawings are marked with the same reference numerals, and their description is not repeated in principle. The embodiments and modifications to be described below are predetermined from the original application, including combinations not mentioned in the specification, and the structures described in the embodiments are appropriately combined within the scope that does not cause adverse conditions or contradictions.

[0024] [Structure of the health management system 10]

[0025] Figure 1 1 is a diagram showing the structure of a health management system 10 according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 1 As shown, the health management system 10 includes a measurement device 1, a server device 2, and a display device 3. The server device 2 includes a control device 21, a storage device 22, and a communication device 23.

[0026] The measuring device 1 measures the biometric information of the user. The server device 2 stores the biometric information of the user measured by the measuring device 1 in the storage device 22 for each individual user. Based on the measured value of the biometric information of the individual user stored, the control device 21 of the server device 2 performs the following control: sets a target value of the biometric information of the individual user and updates the target value. The display device 3 displays the target value set by the control device 21 of the server device 2 for each individual user and the measured value stored in the storage device 22 of the server device 2.

[0027] The measuring device 1 is a device for measuring biological information of the user. The measuring device 1 can measure, for example, advanced glycation end products (AGEs, hereinafter referred to as "AGEs") as biological information. AGEs is a general term for a variety of compounds, and sugars bind to proteins and react through oxidation, dehydration, and condensation to generate AGEs.

[0028] AGEs are believed to accumulate in the body due to a disordered lifestyle, causing senile diseases and lifestyle-related diseases (eg, diabetes and dementia). Therefore, the health management system 10 can manage the user's health status by measuring and managing AGEs.

[0029] The measurement device 1 is installed in various facilities such as medical institutions, pharmacies, nursing facilities, and fitness centers.

[0030] The server device 2 is a server built on the cloud. By building the server device 2 on the cloud, the server device 2 can be accessed from the measurement devices 1 installed in various facilities. In the server device 2, a control device 21, a storage device 22, and a communication device 23 are connected via a bus 24.

[0031] The control device 21 is an example of a computer, and is a computing entity that performs various processing according to various programs. The control device 21 includes, for example, at least one of a CPU (Central Processing Unit), an FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array), a GPU (Graphics Processing Unit), and an MPU (Multi Processing Unit). In addition, the control device 21 may also include volatile memories such as DRAM (Dynamic Random Access Memory) and SRAM (Static Random Access Memory), and non-volatile memories such as ROM (Read Only Memory) and flash memory. In addition, the control device 21 may also be composed of a computing circuit (Processing Circuitry).

[0032] The storage device 22 includes a nonvolatile memory such as a HDD (Hard Disk Drive) and a SSD (Solid State Drive) and stores an information processing program 221 , user-specific measurement value information 222 , user-specific display information 223 , and user identification information 224 .

[0033] The information processing program 221 is a program executed by the control device 21 in order for the control device 21 to perform various controls in the server device 2. The information processing program 221 includes a server control program for the control device 21 to control the communication device 23 and the storage device 22, and a health management program for the control device 21 to perform health management of the user.

[0034] The user-specific measurement value information 222 is information that accumulates and stores the measurement values ​​of biological information measured by the measurement device 1 for each user. The user-specific display information 223 is display information for displaying information such as target values ​​and measurement values ​​of biological information for each user on the display device 3 .

[0035] The user identification information 224 is information for identifying a user. The user identification information 224 includes information for identifying a user, such as a user ID, a password, and a user name. The server device 2 can identify a user using the user identification information 224.

[0036] The communication device 23 transmits and receives information (data) with each device in the measurement device 1 and the display device 3 through wired communication or wireless communication.

[0037] The display device 3 is constituted by an information terminal having a display unit. The display device 3 is, for example, a portable information terminal such as a smartphone owned by a user.

[0038] [Operation Example of the Health Management System 10]

[0039] Next, an operation example of the health management system 10 will be described.

[0040] When the user measures the biometric information using the measurement device 1 in accordance with the user's instruction, the measurement value of the biometric information and the user identification information are transmitted from the measurement device 1 to the communication device 23 of the server device 2 .

[0041] In the server device 2, the biological information measurement value information and the user identification information sent from the measuring device 1 are sent from the communication device 23 to the control device 21. In the control device 21, based on the comparison between the user identification information sent from the communication device 23 and the user identification information 224, the user authentication is performed.

[0042] In the health management system 10 , for example, user identification information 224 is associated with each registered user. The health management system 10 can store the biological information of the registered users as the user-specific measurement value information 222 .

[0043] In user authentication, when the user corresponding to the user identification information transmitted from the communication device 23 is authenticated as a registered user, the control device 21 causes the storage device 22 to store the transmitted measurement value information as user-specific measurement value information 222 corresponding to the authenticated user.

[0044] The control device 21 obtains the target value of the biometric information corresponding to the authenticated user by performing a statistical method such as processing to obtain, for example, quartiles using the current and past data in the different user measurement value information 222 corresponding to the authenticated user. Then, the control device 21 causes the storage device 22 to store an image (e.g., a text file) for displaying on the display device 3 an image that can compare the target value of the biometric information corresponding to the authenticated user with the current measurement value. Figure 2The display data of the image shown) is used as display information 223 for different users.

[0045] Furthermore, in the health management system 10 , the measured values ​​of the biological information of the unregistered user may be stored, and the same health management process as that of the registered user may be executed.

[0046] Next, the operation when the user's biometric information is viewed on the display device 3 will be described. When the user performs an operation for viewing the user's biometric information on the display device 3, the user identification information is transmitted from the display device 3 to the communication device 23 of the server device 2.

[0047] In the server device 2, the user identification information transmitted from the display device 3 is transmitted from the communication device 23 to the control device 21. In the control device 21, user authentication is performed based on the comparison between the transmitted user identification information and the user identification information 224.

[0048] If the user is authenticated as a registered user in user authentication, the control device 21 reads out the different user display information 223 corresponding to the authenticated user. Then, the control device 21 transmits the display data in the different user display information 223 from the communication device 23 to the display device 3 that has transmitted the user identification information.

[0049] In the display device 3, based on the display data transmitted from the communication device 23, an image (for example, Figure 2 Thus, the display device 3 can display an image that can compare the target value of the biological information corresponding to each user with the current measured value.

[0050] [Health care image example]

[0051] Figure 2 3 is a diagram showing an example of a health management image 30 displayed on the display device 3. The health management image 30 is an image that displays the target value and the measured value of the biological information for each user in a manner that allows comparison. The health management image 30 shows a graph with the AGEs score (0 to 0.8) on the vertical axis and the date (March 31 to September 30) on the horizontal axis.

[0052] The AGEs score is a score indicated by the measured value of AGEs obtained by the measuring device 1. The smaller the score, the less the amount of AGEs accumulated in the body. Therefore, the AGEs score indicates that the health status improves as the score decreases. On the other hand, the more the AGEs score increases, the more the amount of AGEs accumulated in the body increases. Therefore, the AGEs score indicates that the health status deteriorates as the score increases.

[0053] All the black circular dots displayed in the health management image 30 are the measurement values ​​4 of AGEs obtained by the user using the measurement device 1. In the health management image 30, the measurement values ​​4 show the relationship between the AGEs score and the date, so the transition of the measurement values ​​4 can be easily shown.

[0054] In the health management image 30, the target value A of the user's personal AGEs score is shown by statistically processing the user's personal past measurement values ​​4. The target value A is set by the control device 21 as follows. The control device 21 uses quartiles as a statistical method to classify all the user's personal measurement values ​​4 into four numerical ranges of Q1, Q2, Q3, and Q4. Then, the control device 21 sets the numerical range Q1 of the measurement values ​​belonging to the category with a relatively high evaluation related to the health status among these numerical ranges Q1 to Q4 as the user's personal target value A.

[0055] The numerical range Q1 is the numerical range of the AGEs score between the first boundary value 61 and the second boundary value 62. The numerical range Q2 is the numerical range of the AGEs score between the second boundary value 62 and the third boundary value 63. The numerical range Q3 is the numerical range of the AGEs score between the third boundary value 63 and the fourth boundary value 64. The numerical range Q4 is the numerical range of the AGEs score between the fourth boundary value 64 and the fifth boundary value 65.

[0056] The first boundary value 61 is the value with the best AGEs score among the user's past measurement values ​​4. The second boundary value 62 is a value corresponding to the 25% from the minimum value when the user's past measurement values ​​4 are arranged in order of AGEs score from small to large. The third boundary value 63 is a value corresponding to the 55% from the minimum value when the user's past measurement values ​​4 are arranged in order of AGEs score from small to large. The fourth boundary value 64 is a value corresponding to the 75% from the minimum value when the user's past measurement values ​​4 are arranged in order of AGEs score from small to large.

[0057] In the health management system 10, each time the biological information is measured by the measurement device 1, the control device 21 updates the four numerical ranges Q1 to Q4 by executing statistical processing using the data of the past measurement values ​​4 of the individual user stored in the different user measurement value information 222. Thus, in the health management system 10, each time the biological information is measured by the measurement device 1, the numerical range Q1 is updated, and thus the target value A of the individual AGEs score of the individual user is updated by statistical processing using the data of the past measurement values ​​4 of the individual user stored in the different user measurement value information 222.

[0058] The target value A is obtained by selecting the numerical range of the measurement value Q1 belonging to the category with relatively high evaluation related to health in consideration of the data of the measurement value 4 of the user's past biological information, and is therefore a value that is easily achievable for the user.

[0059] In addition, in the health management system 10, each time the measurement device 1 performs multiple measurements of the user's biological information, the numerical range Q1 to Q4 may be updated by statistical processing using the data of the user's past measurement values ​​4 stored in the different user measurement value information 222. In this case, in the health management system 10, each time the measurement device 1 performs multiple measurements of the user's biological information, the target value A of the user's personal AGEs score is updated.

[0060] In the health management image 30, when the user's personal measurement value 4 reaches the target value A, that is, the numerical value within the numerical range Q1, the high evaluation display 5 is executed. The high evaluation display 5 includes a hand image 51 indicating a high evaluation and an image 52 indicating a high evaluation text ("GOOD!").

[0061] exist Figure 2 As an example, as shown in the measurement value group 40 during the period from August 31 to September 30, it is shown that the high evaluation display 5 is executed in the health management image 30 each time the measurement value 4 reaches the target value A, that is, the value within the numerical range Q1. In addition, the high evaluation display 5 may be executed each time the measurement value 4 reaches the target value A, or the high evaluation display 5 may be executed when the measurement value 4 reaches the target value A multiple times in a row.

[0062] By displaying such a health management image 30 on the display device 3, the user can visually compare the measured value 4 of the user's personal biological information in the past with the target value A of the user's personal biological information. In addition, the target value A is set to a value that is easy for the user to achieve in consideration of the measured value 4 of the user's personal biological information in the past. Thus, in the health management system 10, the user's personal health management can maintain or improve the health promotion enthusiasm.

[0063] [Specific Example of Health Management Processing by the Health Management System 10]

[0064] Figure 3 and Figure 4 This is a flowchart showing an example of a process for realizing a health management method of the health management system 10 . Figure 3 and Figure 4 The illustrated processes collectively show the processes performed in the entire health management system 10 .

[0065] exist Figure 3 , a series of processes executed in the health management system 10 when the biological information of the user is measured in the measurement device 1 according to the user's instruction is shown. Figure 4 , a series of processes executed in the health management system 10 when the measurement results of the biological information of the user are displayed on the display device 3 according to the instruction of the user are shown.

[0066] Reference Figure 3 In step S1, the measuring device 1 performs the measurement of the user's biological information according to the user's instruction. In step S2, the information of the measured value of the biological information obtained by the measuring device 1 in step S1 is transmitted from the measuring device 1 to the server device 2 together with the user identification information. The information transmitted from the measuring device 1 to the server device 2 is received by the communication device 23 and transmitted to the control device 21.

[0067] In step S3 , user authentication is performed in the server device 2 . Specifically, in step S3 , in the server device 2 , the control device 21 compares the user identification information received from the measurement device 1 with the user identification information 224 stored in the storage device 22 to perform user authentication.

[0068] In step S4, it is determined whether the user has been authenticated in the user authentication in step S3. If it is determined in step S4 that the user has not been authenticated, the process ends.

[0069] On the other hand, when it is determined in step S4 that the user has been authenticated, in step S5, the server device 2 stores the measurement value information received from the measurement device 1 as the user-specific measurement value information 222. Specifically, in step S5, in the server device 2, the control device 21 assigns the measurement value information received from the measurement device 1 to different users based on the user identification information received from the measurement device 1, and stores the measurement value information as the user-specific measurement value information 222.

[0070] In step S6, the server device 2 creates first display information and stores it in the storage device 22 as part of the different user display information 223. The first display information is used to display the target value A obtained by the previous statistical processing and the new measurement value information. Figure 2 In the health management system 10, through step S6, it is possible to obtain a method for displaying the target value A obtained by the previous statistical processing and the new measurement value information as shown in FIG. Figure 2 The first display information of the health management image 30 as shown.

[0071] The last statistical processing refers to statistical processing performed to obtain the target value A based on the measurement value information including the measurement value information obtained by the user in the last measurement using the measurement device 1 and the measurement value information in the past compared to the measurement value information. Information for displaying the target value A obtained by such statistical processing is stored in the storage device 22 as a part of the different user display information 223, that is, the second display information, in the later-described step S7 when the measurement device 1 performs the last measurement, for example.

[0072] Specifically, in step S6, in the server device 2, the control device 21 reads out the last second display information stored in the storage device 22 as different user display information 223, and the read last second display information is used as information for displaying the target value A obtained by the last statistical processing.

[0073] In step S7, the server device 2 performs statistical processing based on the measurement value information including the new measurement value information and the past measurement value information received from the measurement device 1, and creates a display for displaying the new target value A obtained by the statistical processing and the new measurement information. Figure 2 The second display information of the health management image 30 is stored in the storage device 22 as a part of the different user display information 223, thereby ending the processing. In the health management system 10, through step S7, it is possible to obtain a method for displaying the target value A obtained through the statistical processing this time and the new measurement value information as shown in FIG. Figure 2 The second display information of the health management image 30 as shown.

[0074] Reference Figure 4 In step S11, according to the user's instruction, the user identification information is sent from the display device 3 to the server device 2. The information sent from the display device 3 to the server device 2 is received by the communication device 23 and sent to the control device 21.

[0075] In step S12 , user authentication is performed in the server device 2 . Specifically, in step S12 , in the server device 2 , the control device 21 compares the user identification information received from the measurement device 1 with the user identification information 224 stored in the storage device 22 to perform user authentication.

[0076] In step S13, it is determined whether the user has been authenticated in the user authentication performed by the server device 2 in step S12. If it is determined in step S13 that the user has not been authenticated, the process ends.

[0077] On the other hand, if it is determined in step S13 that the user has been authenticated, the first display information and the second display information are sent from the server device 2 to the display device 3 in step S14. The first display information sent in step S14 is Figure 3 The first display information is stored in the storage device 22 as part of the different user display information 223 in step S6. The second display information sent in step S14 is Figure 3 The second display information is stored in the storage device 22 as a part of the different user display information 223 in step S7.

[0078] Specifically, in step S14, the server device 2 reads out the first display information and the second display information of the different user display information 223 corresponding to the user who has passed the authentication in the user authentication from the storage device 22. Then, in step S14, the read first display information and the second display information are transmitted from the communication device 23 to the display device 3 to which the user identification information has been transmitted. The first display information and the second display information transmitted in this way are received by the display device 3.

[0079] In step S15, the display device 3 that has received the first display information uses the received first display information to display the target value A obtained by the previous statistical processing and the new measured value information. Figure 2 Such health management image 30.

[0080] In step S16, it is determined whether the condition for performing high evaluation display 5 in the health management image 30 displayed by the display device 3 is satisfied. Specifically, in step S16, based on the target value A obtained by the last statistical processing and the new measurement value information contained in the received first display information, if the new measurement value reaches the target value A, it is determined that the condition for performing high evaluation display 5 is satisfied.

[0081] If it is determined in step S16 that the condition for high evaluation display 5 is not satisfied, the process ends. On the other hand, if it is determined in step S16 that the condition for high evaluation display 5 is satisfied, image display with high evaluation display 5 added to the health management image 30 is performed in step S17.

[0082] After the health management image 30 displayed in steps S15 and S17 is displayed on the display device 3 for a predetermined time, in step S18, the display device 3 uses the second display information received from the server device 2 to display the target value A obtained by the new statistical processing and the new measurement value information. Figure 2 Such a health management image 30 is displayed. Then, the process ends. By displaying such an image on the display device 3, the user can recognize the new target value A of the user himself.

[0083] [Modification of the embodiment]

[0084] (1) In the health management system 10 of the implementation mode, the measuring device 1 may be a device that is not limited to measuring AGEs as biological information, but also measures other biological information such as blood pressure, blood sugar level, respiratory rate, body temperature, brain waves, electrocardiogram, blood flow, heart sounds, blood oxygen concentration, cholesterol, blood alcohol concentration, sweating, electromyography, and activity level as biological information.

[0085] (2) In the health management system 10 of the embodiment, an example is shown in which the server device 2 is a server built on the cloud. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the server device 2 may use a server other than a server built on the cloud.

[0086] (3) In the health management system 10 of the embodiment, an example is shown in which the measurement value information of the biological information and the user identification information are sent from the measuring device 1 to the server device 2. However, the present invention is not limited to this. The measuring device 1 may also generate a one-dimensional code or a two-dimensional code based on the measurement value information when the measurement of the biological information is completed, and print the code information on a printer. In this case, the user may also obtain the measurement information by reading the code printed on the receipt using a camera in an information terminal such as a smartphone owned by the user, and send the obtained measurement information and user identification information to the server device 2.

[0087] (4) In the health management system 10 of the embodiment, the display device 3 is not limited to the information terminal owned by the user, and may be, for example, a personal computer terminal or a tablet terminal installed in various facilities such as medical institutions, pharmacies, nursing facilities, and gyms.

[0088] (5) In the health management system 10 of the implementation mode, an example of obtaining a target value by using quartile statistical processing is described, but the present invention is not limited to this. If a target value corresponding to a relatively high measurement value related to health among the measurement values ​​of the user's personal biological information stored in the storage device 22 can be set as the target value of the user's personal biological information through other types of statistical processing, other types of statistical processing can also be used to obtain the target value.

[0089] (6) In the health management system 10 of the embodiment, an example is shown in which the target value of the biological information is updated in response to one measurement of the biological information by the measurement device 1. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the target value of the biological information may be updated in response to multiple measurements of the biological information by the measurement device 1.

[0090] (7) In the health management system 10 of the embodiment, an example is shown in which the target value of the biological information is updated in accordance with one measurement of the biological information by the measurement device 1. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the target value of the biological information may be updated in accordance with the passage of a period, such as updating the target value of the biological information every week.

[0091] (8) In the health management system 10 of the embodiment, the following example is shown: by displaying an image showing the numerical range Q1 set as the target value A and the measured value 4 in a graph on the display device 3, the target value of the biological information and the measured value of the biological information are displayed in a manner that allows comparison. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the target value of the biological information and the measured value of the biological information may be displayed in a manner that allows comparison by showing both the numerical range Q1 set as the target value A and the measured value 4 in a numerical display such as a digital display.

[0092] (9) In the health management system 10 of the embodiment, as the health management image 30, the target value A and new measurement value information obtained through the previous statistical processing described in step S15 and the high evaluation display 5 described in step S17 may be displayed instead of the target value A and new measurement value information obtained through the new statistical processing described in step S18.

[0093] (10) In the health management system 10 of the implementation mode, the target value A and the new measurement value information obtained by the new statistical processing described in step S18 can also be displayed as the health management image 30, without displaying the target value A and the new measurement value information obtained by the previous statistical processing described in step S15, and the high evaluation display 5 described in step S17.

[0094] [Effects obtained by implementing the method]

[0095] (1) Figure 3 As shown in FIG. 1 , the target value A of the user's personal biometric information is set based on the measured value of the user's personal biometric information stored in the storage device 22, as shown in FIG. Figure 2 By displaying the target value A set for each user and the measured value 4 stored in the storage device 22 as shown, the user's motivation for improving health can be enhanced.

[0096] For example, even when the biological information measurement value is poorly evaluated, it is easy to set a target value that can be achieved even by the user with the poor evaluation, thereby preventing the user from losing motivation and increasing the user's enthusiasm for health improvement. In addition, for example, even when the biological information measurement value is well evaluated, it is easy to set an appropriate new target value for the user with the good evaluation, thereby preventing the user from being unable to find a new target due to a sense of security and increasing the user's enthusiasm for health improvement. In addition, Figure 3 As shown in FIG. 1 , the target value A of the user's personal biometric information is set based on the measured value 4 of the user's personal biometric information stored in the storage device 22, as shown in FIG. Figure 2 By displaying the target value A set for each user and the measured value 4 stored in the storage device 22 as shown, the user's enthusiasm for improving health can be increased, and thus the user's enthusiasm for improving health can be increased without giving the user a reward such as money.

[0097] (2) Figure 2 As shown in the numerical range Q1, the target value A corresponding to the measurement value 4 with a relatively high health-related evaluation among the measurement values ​​4 of the user's personal biological information stored in the storage device 22 is set as the target value of the user's personal biological information, so that the target value suitable for the state of the user's personal biological information can be set.

[0098] (3) Figure 3 In the embodiment, each time measurement value information is sent from the measuring device 1 to the server device 2, that is, each time the measuring device 1 performs measurement, the target value A is updated in relation to the measured personal biometric information of the user, so that the target value A that is more suitable for the state of the personal biometric information of the user can be set.

[0099] (4) Figure 3 As shown, specifically, the predetermined condition for updating the target value A is satisfied when the measuring device 1 measures the user's personal biometric information a predetermined number of times. Therefore, each time the number of measurements increases, a target value A suitable for the state of the user's personal biometric information can be set.

[0100] (5) Figure 3 As shown, specifically, the predetermined condition for updating the target value A is satisfied each time the measuring device 1 measures the user's personal biometric information. Therefore, each time the biometric information is measured, the target value A suitable for the state of the user's personal biometric information can be set.

[0101] (6) Figure 2As shown in FIG. 1 , the measured value 4 of the user's personal biological information and the target value A are displayed in a comparable manner, so the user can easily confirm the relationship between the measured value 4 of the biological information and the target value A.

[0102] (7) Figure 3 As shown in step S7, the target value A is updated based on the statistics of the measured values ​​4 of the user's personal biometric information stored in the storage device 22, so that the target value A corresponding to the tendency of the measured values ​​4 of the user's personal biometric information in the past can be provided to the user.

[0103] (8) Figure 2 As shown, when updating the target value A, the measurement values ​​4 of the user's personal biological information stored in the storage device 22 are classified into four categories using quartiles, and the range Q1 of the measurement values ​​belonging to the category with relatively high health-related evaluation is set as the target value A, thereby further providing the user with a target value corresponding to the tendency of the measurement values ​​4 of the user's personal biological information in the past.

[0104] (9) Figure 2 As shown, when the measured value 4 of the user's personal biological information reaches the target value A, a high evaluation display 5 is performed, so that the user's motivation for improving health can be enhanced.
