Blood pressure related information display device

Abstract

This blood-pressure-related information display device comprises: a measured value acquisition unit (S1-S9) for acquiring measured values including a subject's systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, and / or pulse rate; a determining unit (S10, S11) for determining whether the measured value is classified as a first range set in advance in specifications, a second range that is set in advance adjacent to the first range on the side lower than the first range and that corresponds to possible measured values that humans can exhibit, or a third range that is set in advance adjacent to the second range on the side lower than the second range and that corresponds to abnormal measured values that humans cannot possibly exhibit; and a display processing unit (S12-S14). When the measured value is classified as the first range, the display processing unit displays the measured value on a display screen. When the measured value is classified as the second range, the display processing unit displays, on the display screen, deviation information indicating that the measured value is classified as the second range, or the measured value in addition to the deviation information. When the measured value is classified as the third range, the display processing unit displays, on the display screen, an indication of a measurement error.

Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a blood pressure related information display device, and more particularly to a device that displays information related to blood pressure, such as blood pressure values ​​and pulse rate, on a display screen. [Background technology]

[0002] In a typical electronic blood pressure monitor, as described on page 47 (Specifications) of Non-Patent Document 1 ("Upper Arm Blood Pressure Monitor HCR-7501T Instruction Manual", Omron Healthcare Co., Ltd.), for example, the systolic blood pressure measurement range is 60 to 260 mmHg, the diastolic blood pressure measurement range is 40 to 215 mmHg, and the pulse rate measurement range is 40 to 180 beats / min. These measurement ranges are preset by the manufacturer as ranges in which the manufacturer evaluates the blood pressure monitor and can guarantee its measurement accuracy (more specifically, ranges evaluated and verified using measurements made by a doctor using auscultation as a standard value, which is an evaluation method for electronic blood pressure monitors).

[0003] In the above blood pressure monitor, when the systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, and pulse rate acquired by the measurement are within the corresponding measurement ranges, the above acquired systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, and pulse rate are displayed on the display screen, for example, as shown in FIG. 8(A). In the example of FIG. 8(A), the acquired systolic blood pressure (systolic blood pressure) SYS is 124 mmHg, which is within the systolic blood pressure measurement range of 60 to 260 mmHg. The acquired diastolic blood pressure (diastolic blood pressure) DIA is 74 mmHg, which is within the diastolic blood pressure measurement range of 40 to 215 mmHg. In addition, the acquired pulse rate PLS is 61 beats / min, which is within the pulse rate measurement range of 40 to 180 beats / min. In response to this, the above acquired systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, and pulse rate are displayed on the display screen, respectively.

[0004] On the other hand, in the above blood pressure monitor, if any one of the systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, and pulse rate obtained by the measurement is out of the corresponding measurement range, a display indicating a measurement error (in this example, the character string "Err") is displayed on the display screen, as shown in FIG. 8(D). For example, even if the obtained systolic blood pressure SYS is 75 mmHg and is within the systolic blood pressure measurement range of 60 to 260 mmHg, and the obtained diastolic blood pressure DIA is 41 mmHg and is within the diastolic blood pressure measurement range of 40 to 215 mmHg, when the obtained pulse rate PLS is 39 beats / min and is out of the pulse rate measurement range of 40 to 180 beats / min, not only the pulse rate but also the systolic blood pressure and the diastolic blood pressure are not displayed on the display screen, and a display indicating a measurement error is displayed as shown in FIG. 8(D). Note that the character strings "SYS", "DIA", and "PLS" are fixedly displayed on the display screen. In the example of FIG. 8(D), the character string "Err" is displayed to the right of the character string "SYS", but the position of the character string "Err" is meaningless.

[0005] [Non-Patent Document 1] “Upper Arm Blood Pressure Monitor HCR-7501T Instruction Manual”, [online], Omron Healthcare Co., Ltd., [Retrieved September 9, 2021], Internet < URL : https: / / www.healthcare.omron.co.jp / support / download / manual / HCR-7501T_IM_C.pdf> Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0006] In recent years, electronic blood pressure monitors capable of measuring nighttime blood pressure have been developed. Nighttime blood pressure is said to be more highly correlated with the risk of heart disease than daytime blood pressure, and is also an important index for understanding the effect of antihypertensive treatment. It is known that in healthy individuals, nighttime blood pressure and pulse rate are generally lower than daytime blood pressure and pulse rate, and it is also known that in hypertensive patients undergoing antihypertensive treatment, blood pressure may become lower due to the combined effect of the drug. This fact has been confirmed by the measurement results by the present inventor (FIG. 19 shows the measured values ​​of the systolic blood pressure SYS, diastolic blood pressure DIA, and pulse rate PLS for a certain subject over the night. Also, FIG. 20 shows the measured values ​​of the systolic blood pressure SYS, diastolic blood pressure DIA, and pulse rate PLS for another subject over the night.) In these cases, the above-mentioned general electronic blood pressure monitor has a problem that, even when the measurement operation itself is performed normally, the obtained measured values ​​(systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, and / or pulse rate) deviate from the preset measurement range, so a display indicating a measurement error is displayed and information regarding the subject's blood pressure is not displayed.

[0007] Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a blood pressure related information display device that can display information regarding a subject's blood pressure even if the acquired measurement value deviates from the measurement range (called the "first range") set in advance in the specifications. [Means for solving the problem]

[0008] In order to solve the above problems, the blood pressure related information display device disclosed herein comprises: A blood pressure related information display device that displays information related to blood pressure on a display screen, a measurement acquisition unit for acquiring measurements including a systolic blood pressure, a diastolic blood pressure, and / or a pulse rate of the subject; a determination unit that determines into which of three ranges the measurement value falls: a first range preset in specifications, a second range preset adjacent to the lower side of the first range and corresponding to a measurement value that a human can exhibit, and a third range preset adjacent to the lower side of the second range and corresponding to an abnormal measurement value that a human cannot exhibit; a display processing unit that performs processing to display information on a display screen, The display processing unit is When the measured value is classified into the first range, the measured value is displayed on the display screen. In a first manner having a predetermined size, thickness and color Display, When the measured value is classified into the second range, a message indicating that the measured value is classified into the second range is displayed on the display screen. Contains the first character string or mark Deviation Information Show only Or, in addition to the deviation information, the above measurements In the first aspect above Display, Alternatively, the measurement value is displayed in a second manner that is distinguishable from the first manner in at least one of the size, thickness, and color, When the measured value is classified into the third range, neither the deviation information nor the measured value is displayed on the display screen, and a display indicating a measurement error is displayed. It is characterized by:

[0009] "Measurements including systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, and / or pulse rate" includes measurements of any one of the measurement items, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, and pulse rate, as well as measurements of multiple measurement items.

[0010] "Acquiring a measurement value" includes, for example, a case where a measurement value is acquired by performing a measurement in this device, and a case where a measurement value measured outside this device is input and acquired, for example, via a communication line.

[0011] The "first range set in the specifications" is not limited to the specifications, and may be substantially set in the instruction manual for the device, etc.

[0012] The term "human" refers to a person generally, and may refer to a plurality of persons. "Human" may also include a "subject."

[0013] The "second range, which is preset adjacent to the lower side of the first range and corresponds to measurement values ​​that a human may exhibit" is set in advance based on empirical facts so as to include the distribution of measurement values ​​that a human may exhibit, for example, when he or she is sleeping at night, when he or she has consumed alcohol and his or her blood vessels have expanded, when a medication (e.g., an antihypertensive drug) he or she has taken is too effective, etc.

[0014] The "third range" is a range of abnormal measurement values ​​that humans cannot exhibit, which is set in advance based on empirical facts.

[0015] The "deviation information" may be displayed, for example, as letters or marks indicating the deviation, or may be displayed as a specific aspect of the measurement value. A "mark" refers to, for example, an upward or downward arrow. The "second aspect distinguishable from the first aspect" refers to, for example, an aspect in which the size or color of characters expressing numerical values ​​is changed from that of the first aspect.

[0016] In the blood pressure-related information display device disclosed herein, the measurement acquisition unit acquires measurement values ​​including the subject's systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, and / or pulse rate. The determination unit determines into which of three ranges the measurement value falls: a first range set in advance in the specifications, a second range set in advance adjacent to the lower side of the first range and corresponding to measurement values ​​that a human could exhibit, and a third range set in advance adjacent to the lower side of the second range and corresponding to abnormal measurement values ​​that a human could not exhibit. When the measurement value is classified into the first range (the original measurement range set in the specifications), the display processing unit displays the measurement value on the display screen. In a first manner having a predetermined size, thickness and color This allows a user (including medical personnel such as doctors and nurses, and subjects; the same applies below) to know the measurement value. When the measurement value is classified into the second range, the display processing unit displays on the display screen a message indicating that the measurement value is classified into the second range. Contains the first character string or mark Deviation Information Show only Or, in addition to the deviation information, the above measurements Displaying the measured value in the first manner, or displaying the measured value in a second manner that is distinguishable from the first manner in at least one of the size, thickness, and color.By displaying the deviation information, the user is informed that the measurement value has deviated into the second range (a range lower than the original measurement range, corresponding to a measurement value that a human can exhibit). Intuitively In addition to the deviation information, the measured values ​​are also known. In the first aspect above Displayed or when the measurement value is displayed in a second manner that is distinguishable from the first manner in at least one of the size, thickness, and color. When the measurement value is classified into the third range, the display processing unit displays neither the deviation information nor the measurement value on the display screen, but displays a message indicating a measurement error, thereby allowing the user to know that a measurement error has occurred.

[0017] In this way, according to this blood pressure related information display device, even if the acquired measured value deviates from the first range to the lower side (second range), information on the subject's blood pressure (the deviation information, or the measured value in addition to the deviation information) can be displayed, thereby improving user convenience.

[0018] In one embodiment of the blood pressure related information display device, The determination unit determines which of five ranges the measurement value falls into, including the first, second, and third ranges, a fourth range corresponding to a measurement value that a human can exhibit and preset adjacent to the higher side of the first range, and a fifth range corresponding to an abnormal measurement value that a human cannot exhibit and preset adjacent to the higher side of the fourth range; The display processing unit is When the measured value is classified into the fourth range, a message indicating that the measured value is classified into the fourth range is displayed on the display screen. Contains a second string or mark Deviation Information Show only Or, in addition to the deviation information, the above measurements In the first aspect above Display, Alternatively, the measured value is displayed in the second manner, When the measured value is classified into the fifth range, neither the deviation information nor the measured value is displayed on the display screen, and a display indicating a measurement error is displayed. It is characterized by:

[0019] The "fourth range, which is preset adjacent to the higher side of the first range and corresponds to measurement values ​​that a human may exhibit" is set in advance based on empirical facts so as to include the distribution of measurement values ​​that a human may exhibit, for example, when he or she is active during the day, when he or she experiences a rise in blood pressure due to sleep apnea syndrome, when he or she experiences a rise in blood pressure upon waking up, etc.

[0020] The "fifth range" is set in advance based on empirical facts as a range of abnormal measurement values ​​that humans cannot exhibit.

[0021] In the blood pressure related information display device of this embodiment, the determination unit determines which of five ranges the measurement value falls into, including the first, second, and third ranges, a fourth range corresponding to a measurement value that a human can exhibit, which is preset adjacent to the higher side of the first range, and a fifth range corresponding to an abnormal measurement value that a human cannot exhibit, which is preset adjacent to the higher side of the fourth range. When the measurement value is classified into the fourth range, the display processing unit displays on the display screen a message indicating that the measurement value has been classified into the fourth range. Contains a second string or mark Deviation Information Show only Or, in addition to the deviation information, the above measurements Displaying the measured value in the first manner, or displaying the measured value in the second manner By displaying the deviation information, the user is informed that the measurement value has deviated into the fourth range (a range higher than the original measurement range, corresponding to a measurement value that a human can exhibit). Intuitively In addition to the deviation information, the measured values ​​are displayed. or when the measurement value is displayed in a second manner that is distinguishable from the first manner in at least one of the size, thickness, and color. When the measurement value is classified into the fifth range, the display processing unit displays neither the deviation information nor the measurement value on the display screen, but displays a message indicating a measurement error, thereby allowing the user to know that a measurement error has occurred.

[0022] In this way, according to the blood pressure related information display device of this embodiment, even if the acquired measured value deviates from the first range to the higher side (fourth range), information on the subject's blood pressure (the deviation information, or the measured value in addition to the deviation information) can be displayed, thereby improving user convenience.

[0048] FIG. 1 shows a block diagram of a blood pressure monitor 100 as one embodiment to which a blood pressure related information display device of the present invention is applied.

[0049] This blood pressure monitor 100 is roughly divided into a blood pressure measurement cuff 20 that is worn around a measurement site such as the upper arm or wrist of a subject, and a main body 10 that is connected to the cuff 20 in a fluid communication manner via an air pipe 38. The measurement site is typically the upper arm, but is not limited to the upper arm, and may be an upper limb other than the upper arm, such as the wrist, or a lower limb, such as the ankle.

[0050] The cuff 20 is a typical one, and includes an elongated, bag-like band 29 and a fluid bag 22 contained within the band 29.

[0051] The main body 10 is equipped with a control unit 110, a display 50, an operation unit 52, a memory 51 as a storage unit, a power supply unit 53, a pressure sensor 31, an A / D conversion circuit 310, a pump 32, a pump drive circuit 320, a valve 33, and a valve drive circuit 330. In this example, an air pipe 38a connected to the pressure sensor 31, an air pipe 38b connected to the pump 32, and an air pipe 38c connected to the valve 33 join together to form a single air pipe 38 connected to the fluid bag 22 in the cuff 20 so as to be capable of fluidly communicating therewith. Hereinafter, the air pipes 38a, 38b, and 38c will be collectively referred to as the air pipe 38.

[0052] In this example, the display 50 is composed of an LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) and displays predetermined information according to a control signal from the control unit 110. In this example, as illustrated in FIG. 5(A), the display screen of the display 50 is provided with a systolic blood pressure display area 501 for displaying the systolic blood pressure SYS (systolic blood pressure, unit: mmHg), a diastolic blood pressure display area 502 for displaying the diastolic blood pressure DIA (diastolic blood pressure, unit: mmHg), and a pulse rate display area 503 for displaying the pulse rate PLS (unit: beats / min). The character strings "SYS", "DIA", and "PLS" are fixedly displayed on the left part 501a of the systolic blood pressure display area 501, the left part 502a of the diastolic blood pressure display area 502, and the left part 503a of the pulse rate display area 503, respectively. The right part 501b of the systolic blood pressure display area 501, the right part 502b of the diastolic blood pressure display area 502, and the right part 503b of the pulse rate display area 503 usually display the measured values ​​acquired each time blood pressure is measured by the sphygmomanometer 100. In FIG. 5(A), the systolic blood pressure display area 501, the diastolic blood pressure display area 502, and the pulse rate display area 503 are shown as dashed ovals, but this is for ease of understanding, and the dashed ovals are not displayed on the actual display screen. The display 50 may be an organic EL (Electro Luminescence) display or may include an LED (Light Emitting Diode).

[0053] 1 has a measurement switch 52A for receiving an instruction to start / stop blood pressure measurement, a memory switch 52B for calling up past measurement results, and a communication switch 52C for receiving an instruction to transmit data related to the measurement value to the outside. These switches 52A, 52B, 52C input operation signals to the control unit 110 according to instructions from a user (e.g., a subject).

[0054] The memory 51 stores data of a program for controlling the sphygmomanometer 100, setting data for setting various functions of the sphygmomanometer 100, data of measurement values, etc. The memory 51 is also used as a work memory when the program is executed. In this example, the memory 51 stores a classification criteria table shown in FIG. 4(A) and a flag value table shown in FIG. 4(B), which will be described later. The flag value table is not used when the sphygmomanometer 100 operates independently, but is used when the sphygmomanometer 100 operates in a medical information management system, which will be described later.

[0055] The control unit 110 includes a CPU (Central Processing Unit) as a processor, and controls the operation of the entire blood pressure monitor 100. Specifically, the control unit 110 acts as a pressure control unit according to a program for controlling the blood pressure monitor 100 stored in the memory 51, and controls the driving of the pump 32 and the valve 33 as pressure devices in response to an operation signal from the operation unit 52. The control unit 110 also acts as a measurement value acquisition unit, a determination unit, and a display processing unit, and in this example, calculates blood pressure values ​​(systolic blood pressure SYS and diastolic blood pressure DIA) by a known oscillometric method based on the output of the pressure sensor 31, and controls the display 50 and the memory 51. A specific method of blood pressure measurement will be described later. The control unit 110 also calculates the pulse rate PLS along with the blood pressure value.

[0056] In this example, the pressure sensor 31 is a piezo-resistive pressure sensor that detects the pressure of the fluid bag 22 contained in the cuff 20 (called the "cuff pressure Pc") through an air pipe 38 and outputs an electrical signal representing the cuff pressure Pc. This cuff pressure Pc contains a signal (pulse wave information) representing a fluctuation component due to the pulse wave. The A / D conversion circuit 310 A / D converts (analog-to-digital converts) the signal output by the pressure sensor 31 and inputs it to the control unit 110. The control unit 110 extracts the pulse wave information from the signal representing the cuff pressure Pc and uses it for blood pressure calculation.

[0057] In this example, the pump 32 is a commercially available rotary pump. The pump 32 is driven by a pump drive circuit 320 based on a control signal from the control unit 110. When the pump 32 is turned on, air is supplied to the fluid bag 22 contained in the cuff 20 through the air pipe 38. This can increase the pressure of the fluid bag 22 (cuff pressure Pc).

[0058] In this example, the valve 33 is a normally open type electromagnetic control valve, and is driven to open and close by a valve drive circuit 330 based on a control signal provided from the control unit 110. The valve 33 is used to exhaust air from within the fluid bag 22 through an air pipe 38, or to seal air in the fluid bag 22, thereby controlling the cuff pressure.

[0059] The power supply unit 53 supplies power to the control unit 110, the display 50, the memory 51, the pressure sensor 31, the pump 32, the valve 33, and other components within the main body 10.

[0060] When communication switch 52C is turned on, communication unit 90 transmits information (measurement value data in this example) from control unit 110 to another device (e.g., a server) via network 900. Also, communication unit 90 receives information from other devices via network 900 and passes the information to control unit 110.

[0061] The classification criteria table shown in FIG. 4(A) shows classification criteria that determine the ranges into which the measured values ​​of each measurement item, systolic blood pressure SYS, diastolic blood pressure DIA, and pulse rate PLS, should be classified. In this example, as shown in the top of the classification criteria table, five ranges are set for each measurement item: a first range RA1 set in advance in the specifications; a second range RA2 set in advance adjacent to the lower side of the first range RA1 and corresponding to the measured values ​​that a human can show; a third range RA3 set in advance adjacent to the lower side of the second range RA2 and corresponding to the abnormal measured values ​​that a human cannot show; a fourth range RA4 set in advance adjacent to the higher side of the first range RA1 and corresponding to the measured values ​​that a human can show; and a fifth range RA5 set in advance adjacent to the higher side of the fourth range RA4 and corresponding to the abnormal measured values ​​that a human cannot show. Here, "human" refers to a general person, and may be multiple people. "Human" may include "subject."

[0062] The first range RA1 is set in advance in the specifications as an original measurement range. The first range RA1 is not limited to the specifications, and may be substantially set in the instruction manual of the device, for example.

[0063] The second range RA2 is preset adjacent to the lower side of the first range RA1 based on empirical facts so as to include a distribution of measurement values ​​that may be shown, for example, when a person is sleeping at night, when a person drinks alcohol and their blood vessels dilate, or when a person takes medicine (e.g., an antihypertensive drug) that is too effective.

[0064] The fourth range RA4 is preset adjacent to the higher side of the first range RA1 based on empirical facts so as to include a distribution of measurement values ​​that may be exhibited, for example, when a person is active during the day, when a person experiences a rise in blood pressure due to sleep apnea syndrome, when a person experiences a rise in blood pressure upon waking up, etc.

[0065] The third range RA3 and the fifth range RA5 are preset based on empirical facts as ranges of abnormal measurement values ​​that cannot be exhibited by humans.

[0066] Hereinafter, the first, second, ..., fifth ranges for the systolic blood pressure SYS will be referred to as RA1_SYS, RA2_SYS, ..., RA5_SYS. The first, second, ..., fifth ranges for the diastolic blood pressure DIA will be referred to as RA1_DIA, RA2_DIA, ..., RA5_DIA. Also, the first, second, ..., fifth ranges for the pulse rate PLS will be referred to as RA1_PLS, RA2_PLS, ..., RA5_PLS. Hereinafter, the first range RA1 collectively refers to RA1_SYS, RA1_DIA, and RA1_PLS. The second range RA2 collectively refers to RA2_SYS, RA2_DIA, and RA2_PLS. Continuing in the same manner, the fifth range RA5 collectively refers to RA5_SYS, RA5_DIA, and RA5_PLS.

[0067] Specifically, the inventor observed the measured values ​​that a human can show for the pulse rate PLS under various conditions, such as night or day, at rest or active, drinking or sober, taking medicine or stopping medicine, as shown in Fig. 3. Then, for the first range RA1_PLS set in advance in the specifications, a second range RA2_PLS adjacent to the lower side of the first range RA1 and a fourth range RA4_PLS adjacent to the higher side of the first range RA1 were obtained. In response to this, a third range RA3_PLS was set adjacent to the lower side of the second range RA2, corresponding to abnormal measured values ​​that a human cannot show. In addition, a fifth range RA5_PLS was set adjacent to the higher side of the fourth range RA4, corresponding to abnormal measured values ​​that a human cannot show. As a result, as shown in the row for pulse rate PLS in the classification criteria table in Figure 4(A), the first range RA1_PLS for pulse rate PLS was set to 40 to 180 beats / minute, the second range RA2_PLS to 30 to 39 beats / minute, the third range RA3_PLS to 29 beats / minute or less, the fourth range RA4_PLS to 181 to 190 beats / minute, and the fifth range RA5_PLS to 191 beats / minute or more.

[0068] Similarly, as shown in the row for systolic blood pressure SYS in the classification criteria table in Figure 4(A), the first range RA1_SYS for the systolic blood pressure SYS was set to 60 to 260 mmHg, the second range RA2_SYS to 50 to 59 mmHg, the third range RA3_SYS to 49 mmHg or less, the fourth range RA4_SYS to 261 to 270 mmHg, and the fifth range RA5_SYS to 271 mmHg or more.

[0069] Similarly, as shown in the row for diastolic blood pressure DIA in the classification criteria table of Figure 4(A), the first range RA1_DIA for the diastolic blood pressure DIA was set to 40 to 215 mmHg, the second range RA2_DIA to 30 to 39 mmHg, the third range RA3_DIA to 29 mmHg or less, the fourth range RA4_DIA to 216 to 225 mmHg, and the fifth range RA5_DIA to 226 mmHg or more.

[0070] In this example, the measured values ​​of the systolic blood pressure SYS and the diastolic blood pressure DIA are calculated and displayed in mmHg units by rounding off the decimal point. Accordingly, the first, second, ..., fifth ranges RA1_SYS, RA2_SYS, ..., RA5_SYS for the systolic blood pressure SYS and the first, second, ..., fifth ranges RA1_DIA, RA2_DIA, ..., RA5_DIA for the diastolic blood pressure DIA are also set in mmHg units by rounding off the decimal point. In addition, the measured value of the pulse rate PLS is calculated and displayed in beats / minute units by rounding off the decimal point. Accordingly, the first, second, ..., fifth ranges RA1_PLS, RA2_PLS, ..., RA5_PLS for the pulse rate PLS are also set in beats / minute units by rounding off the decimal point.

[0071] (Measurement of blood pressure and display of measurement results) FIG. 2 shows a process flow in which the blood pressure monitor 100 alone measures the blood pressure of a subject and displays the measured systolic blood pressure SYS, diastolic blood pressure DIA, and pulse rate PLS on the display screen of the display device 50.

[0072] When the cuff 20 is attached to the part to be measured (for example, the upper arm of the subject) and the user (in this example, the subject) issues an instruction to start measurement using the measurement switch 52A provided on the main body 10, the control unit 110 performs initialization (step S1 in FIG. 2). Specifically, the control unit 110 initializes the processing memory area, stops the pump 32, and adjusts the pressure sensor 31 to 0 mmHg (sets the atmospheric pressure to 0 mmHg) with the valve 33 open.

[0073] Next, the control unit 110 functions as a pressure control unit, closes the valve 33 (step S2), and drives the pump 32 via the pump drive circuit 320 to start pressurizing the cuff 20 (step S3). That is, the control unit 110 supplies air from the pump 32 to the cuff 20 (fluid bag 22 contained therein) through the air piping 38. At the same time, the pressure sensor 31 functions as a pressure detection unit, and detects the pressure of the fluid bag 22 (cuff pressure Pc) through the air piping 38. The control unit 110 controls the pressurization speed by the pump 32 based on the output of the pressure sensor 31. This pressurization compresses the artery passing through the measurement site, causing blood flow to be blocked.

[0074] Next, the control unit 110 judges whether the cuff pressure Pc has reached a predetermined pressure based on the output of the pressure sensor 31 (step S4). This "predetermined pressure" is preset to a pressure value sufficiently higher than the expected blood pressure value of the subject. In this example, it is preset to 40 mmHg higher than the previously measured blood pressure value of the subject (systolic blood pressure SYS). When the cuff pressure Pc reaches the predetermined pressure (YES in step S4), the control unit 110 stops the pump 32 (step S5).

[0075] Next, the control unit 110 gradually opens the valve 33 (step S6). This reduces the cuff pressure Pc at a substantially constant rate. Here, a pulse wave signal (fluctuation component) as pulse wave information due to a pulse wave is superimposed on the cuff pressure Pc detected by the pressure sensor 31 through the air piping 38.

[0076] During this decompression process, the control unit 110 functions as a blood pressure calculation unit, extracts the pulse wave signal (fluctuation component) superimposed on the cuff pressure Pc, and attempts to calculate blood pressure values ​​(systolic blood pressure SYS and diastolic blood pressure DIA) using the pulse wave signal acquired at this point in time, in this example, by a known oscillometric method (step S7). Also, in this example, the control unit 110 calculates the pulse rate PLS based on the pulse wave signal. In this way, the control unit 110 functions as a measurement acquisition unit, and acquires measurement values ​​for each of the three measurement items, systolic blood pressure SYS, diastolic blood pressure DIA, and pulse rate PLS, in this example.

[0077] If the control unit 110 is still unable to calculate the blood pressure value and pulse rate due to insufficient data (NO in step S8), it repeats the processes in steps S7 to S8 until the calculations are possible.

[0078] Once the blood pressure value and pulse rate have been calculated in this manner (YES in step S8), the control unit 110 functions as a pressure control unit and performs control to open the valve 33 and rapidly exhaust the air inside the cuff 20 (fluid bag 22) (step S9).

[0079] The blood pressure value and pulse rate may be calculated not during the depressurization process as in the above example, but during the inflation process from when inflation of the cuff 20 begins until the cuff pressure Pc reaches the above-mentioned predetermined pressure.

[0080] Next, in step S10 of Fig. 2, control unit 110 reads out the classification criteria table of Fig. 4(A) stored in memory 51. Then, in step S11 of Fig. 2, control unit 110 functions as a determination unit and refers to the classification criteria table to determine, for each measurement item, into which of the first, second, ..., fifth ranges RA1, RA2, ..., RA5 the acquired measurement value falls.

[0081] When the measured value is classified into the first range RA1 in step S11, the control unit 110 functions as a display processing unit and performs processing to display the measured value on the display screen of the display unit 50 as shown in step S12.

[0082] Alternatively, when the measurement value is classified into the second range RA2 or the fourth range RA4 in step S11, the control unit 110 functions as a display processing unit and performs processing to display deviation information indicating that the measurement value has been classified into the second range RA2 or the fourth range RA4, or the measurement value in addition to the deviation information, on the display screen of the display 50, as shown in step S13.

[0083] Alternatively, when the measurement value is classified into the third range RA3 or the fifth range RA5 in step S11, the control unit 110 functions as a display processing unit and, as shown in step S14, displays neither the deviation information nor the measurement value on the display screen of the display device 50, but displays a message indicating a measurement error.

[0084] In this example, the processes of steps S12 to S14 are performed for each measurement item of systolic blood pressure SYS, diastolic blood pressure DIA, and pulse rate PLS (at the same time, the acquired systolic blood pressure SYS, diastolic blood pressure DIA, and pulse rate PLS are stored in memory 51).

[0085] For example, in the example of FIG. 5(A), the measured value of the systolic blood pressure SYS is 124 mmHg, which is within the first range RA1_SYS (60 to 260 mmHg) for the systolic blood pressure SYS. The measured value of the diastolic blood pressure DIA is 74 mmHg, which is within the first range RA1_DIA (40 to 215 mmHg) for the diastolic blood pressure DIA. In addition, the measured value of the pulse rate PLS is 61 beats / min, which is within the first range RA1_PLS (40 to 180 beats / min) for the pulse rate PLS. In this case, as shown in FIG. 5(A), on the display screen of the display 50, the measured value of the systolic blood pressure SYS is "124", the measured value of the diastolic blood pressure DIA is "74", and the measured value of the pulse rate PLS is "61" are displayed on the right part 501b of the systolic blood pressure display area 501, the right part 502b of the diastolic blood pressure display area 502, and the right part 503b of the pulse rate display area 503, respectively. This allows the subject to know the measurement value for each measurement item.

[0086] In the examples of Fig. 5(B), Fig. 5(C), Fig. 6(A), and Fig. 6(B), the measured value of the systolic blood pressure SYS is 75 mmHg, which is within the first range RA1_SYS (60 to 260 mmHg) for the systolic blood pressure SYS. The measured value of the diastolic blood pressure DIA is 41 mmHg, which is within the first range RA1_DIA (40 to 215 mmHg) for the diastolic blood pressure DIA. Meanwhile, the measured value of the pulse rate PLS is 39 beats / min, which is within the second range RA2_PLS (30 to 39 beats / min) for the pulse rate PLS. In this case, as shown in Fig. 5(B), Fig. 5(C), Fig. 6(A), and Fig. 6(B), the right part 501b of the systolic blood pressure display area 501 and the right part 502b of the diastolic blood pressure display area 502 on the display screen of the display device 50 display the measured value of the systolic blood pressure SYS of "75" and the measured value of the diastolic blood pressure DIA of "41", respectively. On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 5(B) and FIG. 5(C), the right part 503b of the pulse rate display area 503 displays deviation information indicating that the measured value of the pulse rate PLS is classified into the second range RA2_PLS. Here, in the example of FIG. 5(B), the deviation information is represented by a character string "Lo". In the example of FIG. 5(C), the deviation information is represented by a downward arrow mark. This allows the subject to know the measured value of the systolic blood pressure SYS and the measured value of the diastolic blood pressure DIA, and also to know that the measured value of the pulse rate PLS has deviated into the second range RA2_PLS (a range lower than the original measurement range and corresponding to a measured value that a human can show). Alternatively, as shown in FIG. 6(A) and FIG. 6(B), the right part 503b of the pulse rate display area 503 may display the measured value of the pulse rate PLS "39" and deviation information indicating that the measured value of the pulse rate PLS is classified into the second range RA2_PLS. In the example of Fig. 6(A), a character string "39Lo" is displayed, which is a combination of the measured value "39" of the pulse rate PLS and the deviation information "Lo". In the example of Fig. 6(B), the measured value "39" of the pulse rate PLS is displayed together with a downward arrow mark as deviation information. This allows the subject to know the measured value of the systolic blood pressure SYS and the measured value of the diastolic blood pressure DIA, as well as to know that the measured value of the pulse rate PLS has deviated into the second range RA2_PLS and the measured value that has deviated into the second range RA2_PLS.

[0087] In the examples of Fig. 5(D), Fig. 5(E), Fig. 6(C), and Fig. 6(D), the measured value of the systolic blood pressure SYS is 240 mmHg, which is within the first range RA1_SYS (60 to 260 mmHg) for the systolic blood pressure SYS. The measured value of the diastolic blood pressure DIA is 130 mmHg, which is within the first range RA1_DIA (40 to 215 mmHg) for the diastolic blood pressure DIA. Meanwhile, the measured value of the pulse rate PLS is 184 beats / min, which is within the fourth range RA4_PLS (181 to 190 beats / min) for the pulse rate PLS. In this case, as shown in Fig. 5(D), Fig. 5(E), Fig. 6(C), and Fig. 6(D), the right part 501b of the systolic blood pressure display area 501 and the right part 502b of the diastolic blood pressure display area 502 on the display screen of the display device 50 display the measured value of the systolic blood pressure SYS of "240" and the measured value of the diastolic blood pressure DIA of "130", respectively. On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 5(D) and FIG. 5(E), the right part 503b of the pulse rate display area 503 displays deviation information indicating that the measured value of the pulse rate PLS is classified into the fourth range RA4_PLS. Here, in the example of FIG. 5(D), the deviation information is represented by a character string "Hi". In the example of FIG. 5(E), the deviation information is represented by an upward arrow mark. This allows the subject to know the measured value of the systolic blood pressure SYS and the measured value of the diastolic blood pressure DIA, and also to know that the measured value of the pulse rate PLS has deviated into the fourth range RA4_PLS (a range higher than the original measurement range and corresponding to a measured value that a human can exhibit). Alternatively, as shown in FIG. 6(C) and FIG. 6(D), the right part 503b of the pulse rate display area 503 may display the measured value of the pulse rate PLS "184" and deviation information indicating that the measured value has been classified into the fourth range RA4_PLS. In the example of Fig. 6(C), a character string "184Hi" is displayed, which is a combination of the measured value "184" of the pulse rate PLS and the deviation information "Hi". In the example of Fig. 6(D), the measured value "184" of the pulse rate PLS is displayed together with an upward arrow mark as deviation information. This allows the subject to know the measured value of the systolic blood pressure SYS and the measured value of the diastolic blood pressure DIA, as well as to know that the measured value of the pulse rate PLS has deviated into the fourth range RA4_PLS and the measured value that has deviated into the fourth range RA4_PLS.

[0088] In the example of FIG. 7(A) and FIG. 7(B), the measured value of the systolic blood pressure SYS is 262 mmHg, which is within the fourth range RA4_SYS (261-270 mmHg) for the systolic blood pressure SYS. The measured value of the diastolic blood pressure DIA is 130 mmHg, which is within the first range RA1_DIA (40-215 mmHg) for the diastolic blood pressure DIA. The measured value of the pulse rate PLS is 184 beats / min, which is within the fourth range RA4_PLS (181-190 beats / min) for the pulse rate PLS. In this case, as shown in FIG. 7(A), on the display screen of the display 50, for example, a character string "262Hi" combining the measured value of the systolic blood pressure SYS "262" and the deviation information "Hi" is displayed on the right part 501b of the systolic blood pressure display area 501. The measured value of the diastolic blood pressure DIA "130" is displayed on the right part 502b of the diastolic blood pressure display area 502. Also, in the right part 503b of the pulse rate display area 503, for example, a character string "184Hi" is displayed, which is a combination of the measured value "184" for the pulse rate PLS and the deviation information "Hi". Alternatively, as shown in FIG. 7(B), in the right part 501b of the systolic blood pressure display area 501, for example, a measured value "262" for the systolic blood pressure SYS and an upward arrow mark as deviation information are displayed together. In the right part 502b of the diastolic blood pressure display area 502, a measured value "130" for the diastolic blood pressure DIA is displayed. In the right part 503b of the pulse rate display area 503, for example, a measured value "184" for the pulse rate PLS and an upward arrow mark as deviation information are displayed together. This allows the subject to know the measured value of the diastolic blood pressure DIA, and also to know that the measured value of the systolic blood pressure SYS and the measured value of the pulse rate PLS have deviated into the fourth ranges RA4_SYS and RA4_PLS, respectively, and the measured values ​​that have deviated into the fourth ranges RA4_SYS and RA4_PLS. Alternatively, the right part 501b of the systolic blood pressure display area 501 and the right part 503b of the pulse rate display area 503 may not display the measured values ​​of the systolic blood pressure SYS and the pulse rate PLS, but may display only deviation information (for example, the character string "Hi" or an upward arrow mark) indicating that the measured values ​​are classified into the fourth ranges RA4_SYS and RA4_PLS, respectively.

[0089] In the examples of Figures 7(C) and 7(D), the measured value of the systolic blood pressure SYS is 58 mmHg, which falls within the second range RA2_SYS (50 to 59 mmHg) for the systolic blood pressure SYS. The measured value of the diastolic blood pressure DIA is 38 mmHg, which falls within the second range RA2_DIA (30 to 39 mmHg) for the diastolic blood pressure DIA. The measured value of the pulse rate PLS is 39 beats / min, which falls within the second range RA2_PLS (30 to 39 beats / min) for the pulse rate PLS. In this case, as shown in FIG. 7(C), on the display screen of the display device 50, for example, the character string "58Lo" combining the measurement value "58" of the systolic blood pressure SYS and the deviation information "Lo", the character string "38Lo" combining the measurement value "38" of the diastolic blood pressure DIA and the deviation information "Lo", and the character string "39Lo" combining the measurement value "39" of the pulse rate PLS and the deviation information "Lo" are displayed in the right portion 501b of the systolic blood pressure display area 501, the right portion 502b of the diastolic blood pressure display area 502, and the right portion 503b of the pulse rate display area 503, respectively. 7(D), the measurement value of the systolic blood pressure SYS "58" is displayed together with a downward arrow mark as deviation information, the measurement value of the diastolic blood pressure DIA "38" is displayed together with a downward arrow mark as deviation information, and the measurement value of the pulse rate PLS "39" is displayed together with a downward arrow mark as deviation information, respectively, on the right part 501b of the systolic blood pressure display area 501, the right part 502b of the diastolic blood pressure display area 502, and the right part 503b of the pulse rate display area 503. This allows the subject to know that the measurement value of the systolic blood pressure SYS, the measurement value of the diastolic blood pressure DIA, and the measurement value of the pulse rate PLS have deviated into the second ranges RA2_SYS, RA2_DIA, and RA2_PLS, respectively, and the measurement values ​​that have deviated into the second ranges RA2_SYS, RA2_DIA, and RA2_PLS. Alternatively, the right portion 501b of the systolic blood pressure display area 501, the right portion 502b of the diastolic blood pressure display area 502, and the right portion 503b of the pulse rate display area 503 may not display the measurement values ​​for the systolic blood pressure SYS, the measurement values ​​for the diastolic blood pressure DIA, and the measurement values ​​for the pulse rate PLS, and may only display deviation information (e.g., the string "Lo" or a downward arrow mark) indicating that the measurement values ​​are classified into the second ranges RA2_SYS, RA2_DIA, and RA2_PLS, respectively.

[0090] In the above-mentioned examples of Fig. 5(B) to Fig. 5(E), Fig. 6(A) to Fig. 6(D), Fig. 7(A) to Fig. 7(D), the deviation information is displayed as a character string "Lo" or "Hi", or a downward or upward arrow mark, but is not limited thereto. For example, when the measured value of the systolic blood pressure SYS, the measured value of the diastolic blood pressure DIA, and the measured value of the pulse rate PLS are all within the first range RA1, as shown in Fig. 8(A), the measured value of the systolic blood pressure SYS, the measured value of the diastolic blood pressure DIA, and the measured value of the pulse rate PLS are displayed in a first manner on the display screen of the display 50 in the right part 501b of the systolic blood pressure display area 501, the right part 502b of the diastolic blood pressure display area 502, and the right part 503b of the pulse rate display area 503. Here, the first manner refers to a predetermined size, thickness, and color in which the measured value is displayed. In contrast, for example, when the measured values ​​of the systolic blood pressure SYS and diastolic blood pressure DIA are within the first range RA1, but the measured value of the pulse rate PLS is within the second range RA2, the measured value of the systolic blood pressure SYS (in this example, "75") and the measured value of the diastolic blood pressure DIA (in this example, "41") may be displayed in a first manner on the right part 501b of the systolic blood pressure display area 501 and the right part 502b of the diastolic blood pressure display area 502, respectively, as shown in Fig. 8(B) and Fig. 8(C), while the measured value of the pulse rate PLS (in this example, "39") may be displayed in a second manner that is distinguishable from the first manner on the right part 503b of the pulse rate display area 503. Here, the second manner refers to a manner in which at least one of the size, thickness, and color of the measured values ​​is different from the first manner. In the example of Fig. 8(B), the measured value "39" of the pulse rate PLS is displayed in the second mode in a smaller size and thinner than the size of the measured value displayed in the first mode. In the example of Fig. 8(C), the measured value "39" of the pulse rate PLS is displayed in the second mode in a color (orange in the actual product, but shown with black hatching on a white background for convenience of illustration) different from the color of the measured value in the first mode (black in this example).

[0091] If any one of the measured values ​​of the systolic blood pressure SYS, diastolic blood pressure DIA, and pulse rate PLS falls within the third range RA3 or the fifth range RA5, a message indicating a measurement error (in this example, the character string "Err") is displayed on the display screen of the display 50 as shown in Fig. 8(D) in the same manner as described in the conventional example. For example, assume that the measured value of the systolic blood pressure SYS is 124 mmHg, which falls within the first range RA1_SYS (60 to 260 mmHg) for the systolic blood pressure SYS, and the measured value of the diastolic blood pressure DIA is 74 mmHg, which falls within the first range RA1_DIA (40 to 215 mmHg) for the diastolic blood pressure DIA. Even in this case, for example, if the measured value of the pulse rate PLS is 29 beats / min and falls within the third range RA3_PLS (29 beats / min or less) for the pulse rate PLS, not only the measured value of the pulse rate PLS but also the measured value of the systolic blood pressure SYS and the measured value of the diastolic blood pressure DIA are not displayed on the display screen of the display 50, and a display indicating a measurement error as shown in FIG. 8(D) is displayed. This allows the subject to know that a measurement error has occurred. In the example of FIG. 8(D), the character string "Err" is displayed to the right of the character string "SYS" (the right part 501b of the systolic blood pressure display area 501), but the position of the character string "Err" is meaningless.

[0092] In this way, according to the blood pressure monitor 100, even if the acquired measured value deviates from the first range RA1 to the lower side (second range RA2) or higher side (fourth range RA4) for each measurement item, information on the subject's blood pressure (deviation information, or the measured value in addition to the deviation information) can be displayed. Therefore, the convenience of the subject as a user can be improved. In particular, when the deviation information is displayed as a mark (e.g., a downward arrow or an upward arrow), the subject can intuitively recognize that the measured value has deviated into the second range RA2 or the fourth range RA4 by looking at the mark. Similarly, when the deviation information is displayed in a second manner (e.g., a smaller size, a thinner thickness, or a different color) that is distinguishable from the first manner, the subject can intuitively recognize that the measured value has deviated into the second range RA2 or the fourth range RA4 by looking at the measured value displayed in the second manner. Therefore, the convenience of the subject as a user can be further improved.

[0093] Second embodiment FIG. 9 shows a schematic configuration of a medical information management system 800 as another embodiment to which the blood pressure-related information display device of the present invention is applied. The system 800 includes the above-mentioned sphygmomanometer 100, a smartphone 400 communicably connected to the sphygmomanometer 100 via a short-distance communication line 900N, a cloud server 300 communicably connected to the sphygmomanometer 100 and the smartphone 400 via a network (the Internet in this example, the same applies below) 900, and a medical institution terminal 200 communicably connected to the cloud server 300 via the network 900. In this example, the sphygmomanometer 100 and the smartphone 400 are managed and used by an individual subject. The short-distance communication line 900N refers to Wi-Fi (registered trademark), Bluetooth (registered trademark), etc. The medical institution terminal 200 is managed and used not by the subject but by a medical professional (doctor, nurse, etc.) working at a medical institution (hospital, clinic, etc.). The sphygmomanometer 100, the smartphone 400, the cloud server 300, and the medical institution terminal 200 are spatially separated from each other.

[0094] 10, medical institution terminal 200 includes a main body 200M, and a control unit 210, a memory 220, an operation unit 230, a display unit 250, and a communication unit 290 mounted on main body 200M. Medical institution terminal 200 is made up of a commercially available notebook personal computer, on which application software (computer program) is installed to perform the processes described below.

[0095] The control unit 210 includes a CPU (Central Processing Unit) and its auxiliary circuits, controls each unit of the medical institution terminal 200, and executes the processes described below according to the programs and data stored in the memory 220. That is, the control unit 210 processes data input from the operation unit 230 and the communication unit 290, stores the processed data in the memory 220, displays the processed data on the display 250, and outputs the processed data from the communication unit 290.

[0096] The memory 220 includes a RAM (Random Access Memory) used as a working area required for executing a program in the control unit 210, and a ROM (Read Only Memory) for storing basic programs to be executed by the control unit 210. In addition, a semiconductor memory (memory card, SSD (Solid State Drive)) or the like may be used as a storage medium of an auxiliary storage device for supplementing the storage area of ​​the memory 220.

[0097] In this example, the operation unit 230 is configured with a keyboard and a mouse, and typically inputs an operation signal indicating an operation by a medical professional (in this example, a doctor) to the control unit 210. Also, instead of or in addition to the keyboard and mouse, the operation unit 230 may be configured with another operation device such as a touch panel.

[0098] The display 250 includes a display screen, such as an LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) or an EL (Electro Luminescence) display. The display 250 is controlled by the control unit 210 to display a predetermined image on the display screen. In this example, the above-mentioned application software provides the display screen of the display 250 with a systolic blood pressure display area 501 for displaying the systolic blood pressure SYS (systolic blood pressure, unit: mmHg), a diastolic blood pressure display area 502 for displaying the diastolic blood pressure DIA (diastolic blood pressure, unit: mmHg), and a pulse rate display area 503 for displaying the pulse rate PLS (unit: beats / min) in order from the top, as illustrated in FIG. 14(B) (for simplicity, the display areas are denoted by the same reference numerals as those in the display 50 of the sphygmomanometer 100). The display contents of the left part 501a of the systolic blood pressure display area 501, the left part 502a of the diastolic blood pressure display area 502, and the left part 503a of the pulse rate display area 503 are the character strings "SYS", "DIA", and "PLS", respectively, similar to those of the display 50 of the sphygmomanometer 100. The right part 501b of the systolic blood pressure display area 501, the right part 502b of the diastolic blood pressure display area 502, and the right part 503b of the pulse rate display area 503 usually display the measured values ​​processed by the application software. In FIG. 14(B), the systolic blood pressure display area 501, the diastolic blood pressure display area 502, and the pulse rate display area 503 are each shown as a dashed oval, but this is for ease of understanding, and the dashed oval is not displayed on the actual display screen.

[0099] In this example, communication unit 290 receives information about the subject's measurement values ​​(blood pressure value, pulse rate) from cloud server 300 via network 900. In addition, communication unit 290 transmits information from control unit 210 to cloud server 300 via network 900.

[0100] (Measurement of blood pressure and display of measurement results) FIG. 11 shows an operation flow of the sphygmomanometer 100 included in the above-mentioned system 800, and FIG. 12 shows an operation flow of the medical institution terminal 200 which cooperates with the operation flow of the sphygmomanometer 100 of FIG.

[0101] When the cuff 20 of the blood pressure monitor 100 is attached to the part to be measured (e.g., the upper arm of the subject) and the subject instructs the start of measurement using the measurement switch 52A provided on the main body 10, the control unit 110 of the blood pressure monitor 100 performs the same processing as steps S1 to S9 in FIG. 2, as shown in steps S101 to S109 in FIG. 11, to obtain measurement values ​​for each of the three measurement items, namely, systolic blood pressure SYS, diastolic blood pressure DIA, and pulse rate PLS.

[0102] Next, in step S110 of Fig. 11, control unit 110 reads out the classification criteria table of Fig. 4(A) stored in memory 51. Then, in step S111 of Fig. 11, control unit 110 functions as a determination unit and refers to the classification criteria table to determine, for each measurement item, into which of the first, second, ..., fifth ranges RA1, RA2, ..., RA5 the acquired measurement value falls.

[0103] When the measurement value is classified into the first range RA1 in step S111, the control unit 110 functions as a second display processing unit, and performs processing to display the measurement value on the display screen of the display 50 (which functions as the second display screen in this embodiment; the same applies below), as shown in step S112.

[0104] Alternatively, when the measurement value is classified into the second range RA2 or the fourth range RA4, or into the third range RA3 or the fifth range RA5 in step S111 of FIG. 11, the control unit 110 functions as a second display processing unit and, as shown in step S113, displays neither the deviation information nor the measurement value on the display screen of the display unit 50, but displays a message indicating a measurement error.

[0105] In this example, the processes in steps S112 to S113 are performed for each of the measurement items of the systolic blood pressure SYS, diastolic blood pressure DIA, and pulse rate PLS (at the same time, the acquired systolic blood pressure SYS, diastolic blood pressure DIA, and pulse rate PLS are stored in the memory 51.) Display examples on the display screen of the display device 50 will be described later.

[0106] Next, in step S114 of FIG. 11, the control unit 110 functions as a flag adding unit, and refers to the flag value table of FIG. 4(B) stored in the memory 51, and adds a flag having an integer value from -2 to 2 to the measurement value according to which of the first, second, ..., fifth ranges RA1, RA2, ..., RA5 the measurement value is classified into. The flag table of FIG. 4(B) shows the value of the flag to be added according to which of the first, second, ..., fifth ranges RA1, RA2, ..., RA5 the measurement value is classified into for each measurement item. For example, when the measurement value of the systolic blood pressure SYS is classified into the first range RA1, the flag value is set to 0, when the measurement value is classified into the second range RA2, the flag value is set to -1, when the measurement value is classified into the third range RA3, the flag value is set to -2, when the measurement value is classified into the fourth range RA4, the flag value is set to 1, and when the measurement value is classified into the fifth range RA5, the flag value is set to 2. The same flag values ​​are added to the measured values ​​of the diastolic blood pressure DIA and the pulse rate PLS.

[0107] As a result, the control unit 110 creates a data set as information regarding the subject's measurement values, having a format in which the measurement value of the systolic blood pressure SYS and a flag value FSYS for that measurement value, the measurement value of the diastolic blood pressure DIA and a flag value FDIA for that measurement value, and the measurement value of the pulse rate PLS and a flag value FPLS for that measurement value are arranged in this order, as shown in, for example, Figures 13(A) to 13(E).

[0108] For example, in the example of FIG. 13(A), the measured value of systolic blood pressure SYS, 124 mmHg, falls within the first range RA1_SYS (60 to 260 mmHg) for systolic blood pressure SYS, so the flag value FSYS for that measured value is 0. The measured value of diastolic blood pressure DIA, 74 mmHg, falls within the first range RA1_DIA (40 to 215 mmHg) for diastolic blood pressure DIA, so the flag value FDIA for that measured value is 0. In addition, the measured value of pulse rate PLS, 61 beats / min, falls within the first range RA1_PLS (40 to 180 beats / min) for pulse rate PLS, so the flag value FPLS for that measured value is 0. In this case, a data set is created in which the numerical values ​​"124", "0", "74", "0", "61", and "0" are arranged in order.

[0109] In the example of FIG. 13(B), the measured value of 75 mmHg for the systolic blood pressure SYS is within the first range RA1_SYS (60 to 260 mmHg) for the systolic blood pressure SYS, so the flag value FSYS for that measured value is 0. The measured value of 41 mmHg for the diastolic blood pressure DIA is within the first range RA1_DIA (40 to 215 mmHg) for the diastolic blood pressure DIA, so the flag value FDIA for that measured value is 0. In addition, the measured value of 39 beats / min for the pulse rate PLS is within the second range RA2_PLS (30 to 39 beats / min) for the pulse rate PLS, so the flag value FPLS for that measured value is -1. In this case, a data set is created in which the numerical values ​​"75", "0", "41", "0", "39", and "-1" are arranged in order.

[0110] In the example of FIG. 13(C), the measured value of systolic blood pressure SYS, 262 mmHg, falls within the fourth range RA4_SYS (261 to 270 mmHg) for systolic blood pressure SYS, so the flag value FSYS for that measured value is 1. The measured value of diastolic blood pressure DIA, 130 mmHg, falls within the first range RA1_DIA (40 to 215 mmHg) for diastolic blood pressure DIA, so the flag value FDIA for that measured value is 0. In addition, the measured value of pulse rate PLS, 184 beats / min, falls within the fourth range RA4_PLS (181 to 190 beats / min) for pulse rate PLS, so the flag value FPLS for that measured value is 1. In this case, a data set is created in which the numerical values ​​"262", "1", "130", "0", "184", and "1" are arranged in order.

[0111] In the example of FIG. 13(D), the measured value of 75 mmHg for the systolic blood pressure SYS is within the first range RA1_SYS (60 to 260 mmHg) for the systolic blood pressure SYS, so the flag value FSYS for that measured value is 0. The measured value of 41 mmHg for the diastolic blood pressure DIA is within the first range RA1_DIA (40 to 215 mmHg) for the diastolic blood pressure DIA, so the flag value FDIA for that measured value is 0. In addition, the measured value of 29 beats / min for the pulse rate PLS is within the third range RA3_PLS (29 beats / min or less) for the pulse rate PLS, so the flag value FPLS for that measured value is -2. In this case, a data set is created in which the numerical values ​​"75", "0", "41", "0", "29", and "-2" are arranged in order.

[0112] In the example of FIG. 13(E), the measured value of systolic blood pressure SYS, 262 mmHg, falls within the fourth range RA4_SYS (261 to 270 mmHg) for systolic blood pressure SYS, so the flag value FSYS for that measured value is 1. The measured value of diastolic blood pressure DIA, 130 mmHg, falls within the first range RA1_DIA (40 to 215 mmHg) for diastolic blood pressure DIA, so the flag value FDIA for that measured value is 0. In addition, the measured value of pulse rate PLS, 201 beats / min, falls within the fifth range RA5_PLS (191 beats / min or more) for pulse rate PLS, so the flag value FPLS for that measured value is 2. In this case, a data set is created in which the numerical values ​​"262", "1", "130", "0", "201", and "2" are arranged in order.

[0113] In this manner, the control unit 110 creates a data set having a format in which the measurement value of the systolic blood pressure SYS, the flag value FSYS for that measurement value, the measurement value of the diastolic blood pressure DIA, the flag value FDIA for that measurement value, and the measurement value of the pulse rate PLS, and the flag value FPLS for that measurement value are arranged in that order, as information regarding the subject's measurement values ​​(step S114 in FIG. 11).

[0114] 11, the control unit 110 operates the communication unit 90 as a transmission unit to associate the created data set with an ID (identification number) that identifies the subject, and transmits (uploads) the data set to the cloud server 300 shown in Fig. 9 via the network 900 in this example. The cloud server 300 stores the data set as information related to the measurement values, in association with the ID (identification number) that identifies the subject.

[0115] After that, a medical professional (in this example, a doctor) as a user operates the operation unit 230 of the medical institution terminal 200 to launch application software (computer program) and input an instruction to start display processing (including an ID that identifies the subject). In step S201 of FIG. 12, the control unit 210 of the medical institution terminal 200 operates the communication unit 290 as a receiving unit and receives a data set as information regarding the measurement values ​​of the subject from the cloud server 300 via the network 900.

[0116] 12, the control unit 210 functions as a flag recognition unit, reading and recognizing the measured value of systolic blood pressure SYS and its flag value FSYS, the measured value of diastolic blood pressure DIA and its flag value FDIA, and the measured value of pulse rate PLS and its flag value FPLS, all of which are included in the data set. Then, based on the flag values ​​FSYS, FDIA, and FPLS, the control unit 210 recognizes into which of the first, second, ..., fifth ranges RA1, RA2, ..., RA5 the measured value is classified for each measurement item.

[0117] When it is recognized in step S202 that the measurement value falls within the first range RA1, the control unit 210 functions as a first display processing unit, and performs processing to display the measurement value on the display screen of the display 250 (which functions as the first display screen in this embodiment; the same applies below), as shown in step S203.

[0118] Alternatively, when it is recognized in step S202 that the measurement value is classified into the second range RA2 or the fourth range RA4, the control unit 210 functions as a first display processing unit and performs processing to display deviation information indicating that the measurement value is classified into the second range RA2 or the fourth range RA4, or the measurement value in addition to the deviation information, on the display screen of the display 250, as shown in step S204.

[0119] Alternatively, when it is recognized in step S202 that the measurement value is classified into the third range RA3 or the fifth range RA5, the control unit 210 functions as a first display processing unit and, as shown in step S205, displays neither the deviation information nor the measurement value on the display screen of the display device 250, but displays a message indicating a measurement error.

[0120] In this example, the processes of steps S203 to S205 are performed for each measurement item of systolic blood pressure SYS, diastolic blood pressure DIA, and pulse rate PLS (at the same time, the acquired systolic blood pressure SYS, diastolic blood pressure DIA, and pulse rate PLS are stored in memory 220).

[0121] For example, in the example of FIG. 14(B), the measured value of the systolic blood pressure SYS is 124 mmHg, which is within the first range RA1_SYS (60 to 260 mmHg) for the systolic blood pressure SYS. The measured value of the diastolic blood pressure DIA is 74 mmHg, which is within the first range RA1_DIA (40 to 215 mmHg) for the diastolic blood pressure DIA. The measured value of the pulse rate PLS is 61 beats / min, which is within the first range RA1_PLS (40 to 180 beats / min) for the pulse rate PLS. In this case, as shown in FIG. 14(B), on the display screen of the display unit 250 of the medical institution terminal 200, the right part 501b of the systolic blood pressure display area 501, the right part 502b of the diastolic blood pressure display area 502, and the right part 503b of the pulse rate display area 503 respectively display the measured value of the systolic blood pressure SYS "124", the measured value of the diastolic blood pressure DIA "74", and the measured value of the pulse rate PLS "61". This allows the doctor to know the measured value for each measurement item. On the other hand, as shown in Fig. 14(A), the display screen of the display 50 of the sphygmomanometer 100 also displays the measured value "124" for the systolic blood pressure SYS, the measured value "74" for the diastolic blood pressure DIA, and the measured value "61" for the pulse rate PLS in the right part 501b of the systolic blood pressure display area 501, the right part 502b of the diastolic blood pressure display area 502, and the right part 503b of the pulse rate display area 503, respectively. This allows the subject to know the measured value for each measurement item.

[0122] In the example of FIG. 15(B) and FIG. 15(C), the measured value of the systolic blood pressure SYS is 75 mmHg, which is within the first range RA1_SYS (60 to 260 mmHg) for the systolic blood pressure SYS. The measured value of the diastolic blood pressure DIA is 41 mmHg, which is within the first range RA1_DIA (40 to 215 mmHg) for the diastolic blood pressure DIA. On the other hand, the measured value of the pulse rate PLS is 39 beats / min, which is within the second range RA2_PLS (30 to 39 beats / min) for the pulse rate PLS. In this case, as shown in FIG. 15(B) and FIG. 15(C), on the display screen of the display unit 250 of the medical institution terminal 200, the measured value of the systolic blood pressure SYS is "75" and the measured value of the diastolic blood pressure DIA is "41", respectively, are displayed on the right part 501b of the systolic blood pressure display area 501 and the right part 502b of the diastolic blood pressure display area 502. On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 15(B) and FIG. 15(C), for example, the right part 503b of the pulse rate display area 503 displays the measured value of the pulse rate PLS "39" together with deviation information indicating that the measured value of the pulse rate PLS is classified into the second range RA2_PLS. Here, in the example of FIG. 15(B), the deviation information is represented by a character string "Lo". In the example of FIG. 15(C), the deviation information is represented by a downward arrow mark. This allows the doctor to know the measured value of the systolic blood pressure SYS and the measured value of the diastolic blood pressure DIA, and also to know that the measured value of the pulse rate PLS has deviated into the second range RA2_PLS and the measured value of the pulse rate PLS that has deviated into the second range RA2_PLS. On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 15(A), neither the deviation information nor the measured value is displayed on the display screen of the display 50 of the sphygmomanometer 100, and a display indicating a measurement error (display of the character string "Err") is displayed. As a result, the subject recognizes that the measured value deviates from the first range RA1 and that a measurement error has occurred, as in the case of a typical electronic blood pressure monitor.

[0123] As shown in FIG. 9, the subject can communicate the data set between the sphygmomanometer 100 and the smartphone 400 via the short-distance communication line 900N. For example, the display shown in FIG. 15(B) (shown by a balloon DS1 in FIG. 9) is displayed on the display screen of the display 250 of the medical institution terminal 200, and the display shown in FIG. 15(A) (shown by a balloon DS2 in FIG. 9) is displayed on the display screen of the display 50 of the sphygmomanometer 100. In this case, the display screen of the smartphone 400 displays the same display (shown by a balloon DS3 in FIG. 9) as that on the display screen of the display 50 of the sphygmomanometer 100, by application software (computer program) pre-installed in the smartphone 400. As a result, the subject recognizes that the measured value deviates from the first range RA1 and a measurement error has occurred not only on the display screen of the display 50 of the sphygmomanometer 100 but also on the display screen of the smartphone 400.

[0124] In the examples of FIG. 15(D) and FIG. 15(E), the measured value of the systolic blood pressure SYS is 262 mmHg, which is within the fourth range RA4_SYS (261 to 270 mmHg) for the systolic blood pressure SYS. The measured value of the diastolic blood pressure DIA is 130 mmHg, which is within the first range RA1_DIA (40 to 215 mmHg) for the diastolic blood pressure DIA. The measured value of the pulse rate PLS is 184 beats / min, which is within the fourth range RA4_PLS (181 to 190 beats / min) for the pulse rate PLS. In this case, as shown in FIG. 15(D), on the display screen of the display unit 250 of the medical institution terminal 200, for example, a character string "262Hi" combining the measured value of the systolic blood pressure SYS "262" and the deviation information "Hi" is displayed in the right part 501b of the systolic blood pressure display area 501. The measurement value "130" of the diastolic blood pressure DIA is displayed in the right part 502b of the diastolic blood pressure display area 502. In addition, for example, a character string "184Hi" combining the measurement value "184" of the pulse rate PLS and the deviation information "Hi" is displayed in the right part 503b of the pulse rate display area 503. Alternatively, as shown in FIG. 15(E), on the display screen of the display 250 of the medical institution terminal 200, for example, the measurement value "262" of the systolic blood pressure SYS and an upward arrow mark as deviation information are displayed in the right part 501b of the systolic blood pressure display area 501. The measurement value "130" of the diastolic blood pressure DIA is displayed in the right part 502b of the diastolic blood pressure display area 502. In addition, for example, the measurement value "184" of the pulse rate PLS and an upward arrow mark as deviation information are displayed in the right part 503b of the pulse rate display area 503. This allows the doctor to know the measured value of the diastolic blood pressure DIA, that the measured value of the systolic blood pressure SYS and the measured value of the pulse rate PLS have deviated into the fourth range RA4_SYSRA4_PLS, and that the measured value of the systolic blood pressure SYS and the measured value of the pulse rate PLS have deviated into the fourth ranges RA4_SYS and RA4_PLS. On the other hand, as shown in Fig. 15(A), the display screen of the display 50 of the sphygmomanometer 100 does not display either the deviation information or the measured value, but displays a message indicating a measurement error (displaying the character string "Err"). This allows the subject to recognize that the measured value has deviated from the first range RA1 and that a measurement error has occurred, as in the case of a general electronic sphygmomanometer.

[0125] In the example of FIG. 15(F) and FIG. 15(G), the measured value of the systolic blood pressure SYS is 240 mmHg, which is within the first range RA1_SYS (60 to 260 mmHg) for the systolic blood pressure SYS. The measured value of the diastolic blood pressure DIA is 130 mmHg, which is within the first range RA1_DIA (40 to 215 mmHg) for the diastolic blood pressure DIA. Meanwhile, the measured value of the pulse rate PLS is 184 beats / min, which is within the fourth range RA4_PLS (181 to 190 beats / min) for the pulse rate PLS. In this case, as shown in FIG. 15(F) and FIG. 15(G), on the display screen of the display unit 250 of the medical institution terminal 200, the measured value of the systolic blood pressure SYS is "240" and the measured value of the diastolic blood pressure DIA is "130" are displayed in the first manner on the right part 501b of the systolic blood pressure display area 501 and the right part 502b of the diastolic blood pressure display area 502, respectively. Here, the first aspect refers to a predetermined size, thickness, and color in which the measured value is displayed. On the other hand, as shown in Fig. 15(F) and Fig. 15(G), the measured value of the pulse rate PLS ("184" in this example) is displayed in a second aspect that is distinguishable from the first aspect in the right part 503b of the pulse rate display area 503. In the example of Fig. 15(F), the measured value of the pulse rate PLS "184" is displayed in a color (orange in the actual product, but shown with black hatching on a white background for convenience of illustration) different from the color of the measured value in the first aspect (black in this example) as the second aspect. In the example of Fig. 15(G), the measured value of the pulse rate PLS "184" is displayed in a size smaller than the size in which the measured value is displayed in the first aspect and with a thinner thickness as the second aspect. This allows the doctor to know the measured value of the systolic blood pressure SYS and the measured value of the diastolic blood pressure DIA, as well as to know that the measured value of the pulse rate PLS has deviated into the fourth range RA4_PLS and the measured value of the pulse rate PLS that has deviated into the fourth range RA4_PLS. On the other hand, as shown in Fig. 15(A), the display screen of the display 50 of the sphygmomanometer 100 displays neither the deviation information nor the measured value, but displays a message indicating a measurement error (displaying the character string "Err"). This allows the subject to recognize that the measured value has deviated from the first range RA1 and that a measurement error has occurred, as in the case of a general electronic sphygmomanometer.

[0126] If any one of the measured values ​​of the systolic blood pressure SYS, diastolic blood pressure DIA, and pulse rate PLS falls within the third range RA3 or the fifth range RA5, a message indicating a measurement error (in this example, the character string "Err") is displayed on the display screen of the display 250 of the medical institution terminal 200 as shown in Fig. 16(B) in the same manner as described in the conventional example. For example, assume that the measured value of the systolic blood pressure SYS is 124 mmHg, which falls within the first range RA1_SYS (60 to 260 mmHg) for the systolic blood pressure SYS, and the measured value of the diastolic blood pressure DIA is 74 mmHg, which falls within the first range RA1_DIA (40 to 215 mmHg) for the diastolic blood pressure DIA. Even in this case, for example, if the measured value of the pulse rate PLS is 29 beats / min and falls within the third range RA3_PLS (29 beats / min or less) for the pulse rate PLS, not only the measured value of the pulse rate PLS but also the measured value of the systolic blood pressure SYS and the measured value of the diastolic blood pressure DIA are not displayed on the display screen of the display 250 of the medical institution terminal 200, and a display indicating a measurement error as shown in FIG. 16(B) is displayed. This allows the doctor to know that a measurement error has occurred. On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 16(A), neither the deviation information nor the measured value is displayed on the display screen of the display 50 of the sphygmomanometer 100, and a display indicating a measurement error (display of the character string "Err") is displayed. This allows the subject to know that a measurement error has occurred. In the examples of FIG. 16(A) and FIG. 16(B), the character string "Err" is displayed to the right of the character string "SYS" (the right part 501b of the systolic blood pressure display area 501), but the position of the character string "Err" is meaningless, as in FIG. 8(D).

[0127] In this way, according to the operation of the medical information management system 800, even if the acquired measured value deviates from the first range RA1 to the lower side (second range RA2) or higher side (fourth range RA4), information on the subject's blood pressure (deviation information, or the measured value in addition to the deviation information) can be displayed on the display screen of the display device 250 of the medical institution terminal 200. Therefore, the convenience of the medical staff as a user can be improved. In particular, when the deviation information is displayed as a mark (e.g., a downward arrow or an upward arrow), the medical staff can intuitively recognize that the measured value has deviated into the second or fourth range RA4 by looking at the mark. Similarly, when the deviation information is displayed in a second manner (e.g., a smaller size, a thinner thickness, or a different color) that is distinguishable from the first manner, the medical staff can intuitively recognize that the measured value has deviated into the second or fourth range RA4 by looking at the measured value displayed in the second manner. Therefore, the convenience of the medical staff as a user can be further improved.

[0128] (Modification) Fig. 17 shows another operation flow of the sphygmomanometer 100 included in the medical information management system 800, and Fig. 18 shows an operation flow of the medical institution terminal 200 which cooperates with the operation flow of the sphygmomanometer 100 shown in Fig. 17. In this modification, the medical institution terminal 200 stores in the memory 220 the same classification criteria table as that shown in Fig. 4(A).

[0129] When the cuff 20 of the blood pressure monitor 100 is attached to the part to be measured (e.g., the upper arm of the subject) and the subject instructs the start of measurement using the measurement switch 52A provided on the main body 10, the control unit 110 of the blood pressure monitor 100 performs the same processing as steps S1 to S9 in FIG. 2, as shown in steps S301 to S309 in FIG. 17, to obtain measurement values ​​for each of the three measurement items, namely, systolic blood pressure SYS, diastolic blood pressure DIA, and pulse rate PLS.

[0130] Next, in step S310 of Fig. 17, control unit 110 reads out the classification criteria table of Fig. 4(A). Then, in step S311 of Fig. 17, control unit 110 acts as a second determination unit and refers to the classification criteria table to determine, for each measurement item, whether the acquired measurement value is classified into the first range RA1, the second to third ranges RA2-RA3, or the fourth to fifth ranges RA4-RA5. Note that in this step S311, control unit 110 does not need to distinguish between the second range RA2 and the third range RA3, and does not need to distinguish between the fourth range RA4 and the fifth range RA5.

[0131] When the measurement value is classified into the first range RA1 in step S311, the control unit 110 functions as a second display processing unit, and performs processing to display the measurement value on the display screen of the display 50 (in this modified example, it functions as the second display screen; the same applies below), as shown in step S312.

[0132] Alternatively, when the measurement value is classified into the second to third range RA2-RA3 or the fourth to fifth range RA4-RA5 in step S311 of FIG. 17, the control unit 110 functions as a second display processing unit and, as shown in step S313, displays neither the deviation information nor the measurement value on the display screen of the display unit 50, but displays a message indicating a measurement error.

[0133] In this example, the processes in steps S312 to S313 are performed for each of the measurement items of the systolic blood pressure SYS, diastolic blood pressure DIA, and pulse rate PLS (at the same time, the acquired systolic blood pressure SYS, diastolic blood pressure DIA, and pulse rate PLS are stored in the memory 51.) Display examples on the display screen of the display device 50 will be described later.

[0134] As a result, the control unit 110 creates a data set having a format in which the measured value of the systolic blood pressure SYS, the measured value of the diastolic blood pressure DIA, and the measured value of the pulse rate PLS are arranged in this order as information on the measured values ​​of the subject. This format does not use the flag values ​​FSYS, FDIA, and FPLS, and is therefore simpler than the data set format shown in Fig. 13. Therefore, the flag value table in Fig. 4(B) can be omitted.

[0135] Next, in step S314 in Fig. 17, the control unit 110 operates the communication unit 90 as a transmission unit to transmit (upload) the created data set to the cloud server 300 shown in Fig. 9 via the network 900 in this example, in association with an ID (identification number) that identifies the subject. The cloud server 300 stores the data set as information related to the measurement value, in association with an ID (identification number) that identifies the subject. Note that even if not in the blood pressure measurement operation flow, the subject can upload the above data set to the cloud server 300 at a desired timing by turning on the communication switch 52C provided on the main body 10 of the sphygmomanometer 100.

[0136] After that, a medical professional (in this example, a doctor) as a user operates the operation unit 230 of the medical institution terminal 200 to launch application software (computer program) and input an instruction to start display processing (including an ID that identifies the subject). In step S401 of FIG. 18, the control unit 210 of the medical institution terminal 200 operates the communication unit 290 as a receiving unit and receives a data set as information regarding the measurement values ​​of the subject from the cloud server 300 via the network 900.

[0137] Next, in step S402 of Fig. 18, control unit 210 reads out the classification criteria table of Fig. 4(A) stored in memory 220. Then, in step S403 of Fig. 18, control unit 210 acts as a first determination unit and refers to the classification criteria table to determine, for each measurement item, into which of the first, second, ..., fifth ranges RA1, RA2, ..., RA5 the acquired measurement value falls.

[0138] When the measurement value is classified into the first range RA1 in step S403, the control unit 210 functions as a first display processing unit, and performs processing to display the measurement value on the display screen of the display 250 (in this modified example, functions as the first display screen; similarly below), as shown in step S404.

[0139] Alternatively, when the measurement value is classified into the second range RA2 or the fourth range RA4 in step S403, the control unit 210 functions as a first display processing unit and performs processing to display deviation information indicating that the measurement value has been classified into the second range RA2 or the fourth range RA4, or the measurement value in addition to the deviation information, on the display screen of the display 250, as shown in step S405.

[0140] Alternatively, when the measurement value is classified into the third range RA3 or the fifth range RA5 in step S403, the control unit 210 functions as a first display processing unit and, as shown in step S406, displays neither the deviation information nor the measurement value on the display screen of the display unit 250, but displays a message indicating a measurement error.

[0141] In this example, the processes of steps S404 to S406 are performed for each measurement item of the systolic blood pressure SYS, diastolic blood pressure DIA, and pulse rate PLS (at the same time, the acquired systolic blood pressure SYS, diastolic blood pressure DIA, and pulse rate PLS are stored in memory 220).

[0142] Display examples on the display 250 of the medical institution terminal 200 and the display 50 of the sphygmomanometer 100 according to this modification (operation flows of FIGS. 17 and 18) are the same as the display examples described using FIGS. 14(A) to 16(B).

[0143] For example, when the measured values ​​of the three measurement items, systolic blood pressure SYS, diastolic blood pressure DIA, and pulse rate PLS, are all within the first range RA1, the display screen of the display 250 of the medical institution terminal 200 displays as shown in Fig. 14(B). This allows the doctor to know the measured value for each measurement item. Meanwhile, the display screen of the display 50 of the sphygmomanometer 100 also displays as shown in Fig. 14(A). This allows the subject to know the measured value for each measurement item.

[0144] When the measured values ​​of some of the three measurement items, systolic blood pressure SYS, diastolic blood pressure DIA, and pulse rate PLS, are classified into the first range RA1 and the measured values ​​of the remaining measurement items are classified into the second range RA2 or the fourth range RA4, the display screen of the display 250 of the medical institution terminal 200 displays as shown in FIG. 15(B) to FIG. 15(G) (Note that even when the measured values ​​of all the measurement items are classified into the second range RA2 or the fourth range RA4, the same display is made for each measurement item). This allows the doctor to know the measured values ​​of some of the measurement items classified into the first range RA1 among the measured values ​​of the multiple measurement items, and to know that the measured values ​​of the remaining measurement items have deviated into the second range RA2 or the fourth range RA4, and that the measured values ​​have deviated into the second range RA2 or the fourth range RA4. Meanwhile, the display screen of the display 50 of the sphygmomanometer 100 displays as shown in FIG. 15(A). As a result, the subject recognizes that the measured value deviates from the first range RA1 and that a measurement error has occurred, as in the case of a typical electronic blood pressure monitor.

[0145] If any one of the measured values ​​of the systolic blood pressure SYS, the diastolic blood pressure DIA, and the pulse rate PLS falls within the third range RA3 or the fifth range RA5, as described in the conventional example, the display screen of the display 250 of the medical institution terminal 200 displays neither the deviation information nor the measured value, and displays a measurement error (in this example, the character string "Err") as shown in FIG. 16(B). This allows the doctor to know that a measurement error has occurred. On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 16(A), the display screen of the display 50 of the sphygmomanometer 100 displays neither the deviation information nor the measured value, and displays a measurement error (the character string "Err") as shown in FIG. 16(A). This allows the subject to know that a measurement error has occurred.

[0146] Thus, according to the operation of the modified example of the system 800 (operation flow of FIG. 17, FIG. 18), as in the previous example (operation flow of FIG. 11, FIG. 12), even if the acquired measured value deviates from the first range RA1 to the lower side (second range RA2) or higher side (fourth range RA4), information on the subject's blood pressure (deviation information, or the measured value in addition to the deviation information) can be displayed on the display screen of the display device 250 of the medical institution terminal 200. Therefore, the convenience of the medical staff as a user can be improved. Moreover, in this modified example, in the medical institution terminal 200, the control unit 210 works as a first determination unit and determines, for each measurement item, into which of the first, second, ..., fifth ranges RA1, RA2, ..., RA5 the acquired measured value is classified. Therefore, it is not necessary to include information (for example, a flag value) indicating into which range the measured value is classified as a data set (information on the measured value) transmitted by the communication unit 90 of the sphygmomanometer 100. Therefore, the processing by the control unit 110 of the sphygmomanometer 100 can be simplified, and the content of communication between the communication unit 90 of the sphygmomanometer 100 and the communication unit 290 of the medical institution terminal 200 can be simplified.

[0147] In the above-mentioned operation example of the system 800 (operation flow of FIG. 11, FIG. 12, or operation flow of FIG. 17, FIG. 18), when the acquired measurement value deviates from the first range RA1 to the lower side (second range RA2) or higher side (fourth range RA4), the display screen of the display 250 of the medical institution terminal 200 displays information about the subject's blood pressure (deviation information, or deviation information plus measurement value), while the display screen of the display 50 of the sphygmomanometer 100 displays neither deviation information nor measurement value, but displays a measurement error. However, this is not limited to this. The same content as that on the display screen of the display 250 of the medical institution terminal 200 may be displayed on the display screen of the display 50 of the sphygmomanometer 100. This satisfies the needs of the subject when the subject has an understanding of information about blood pressure.

[0148] In the above-described configuration example of the system 800 (see FIG. 9), the sphygmomanometer 100 and the smartphone 400 communicate with the medical institution terminal 200 via the cloud server 300, but this is not limited thereto. The sphygmomanometer 100 and the smartphone 400 may directly communicate with the medical institution terminal 200 through a network (the Internet in this example) 900 without going through the cloud server 300. Furthermore, the sphygmomanometer 100 and the smartphone 400 may communicate with the medical institution terminal 200 through a dedicated communication line other than the Internet.

[0149] In addition, the operation flow of Fig. 12 or the operation flow of Fig. 18 may be recorded as software (computer program) of the blood pressure-related information display method on a recording medium capable of non-transitory data storage, such as a CD (compact disc), a DVD (digital versatile disc), a flash memory, etc. By installing the software recorded on such a recording medium on a substantial computer device, such as a personal computer, a PDA (personal digital assistant), or a smartphone, the computer device can be made to execute the above-mentioned operation flow.

[0150] The above-mentioned embodiments are merely examples, and various modifications are possible without departing from the scope of the present invention. The above-mentioned embodiments can be realized independently, but the embodiments can also be combined with each other. In addition, the various features of the different embodiments can be realized independently, but the features of the different embodiments can also be combined with each other.
