Heat detection device, heat detection method, and program

Abstract

This fever detection device comprises: a heart rate measurement unit (1) that measures the heart rate of a person subject to measurement; an acceleration measurement unit (2) that measures the acceleration of the person subject to measurement; an exercise intensity calculation unit (4) that calculates the exercise intensity of the person subject to measurement from the acceleration; and a fever detection unit (5) that, on the basis of the heart rate and the exercise intensity, determines whether the person subject to measurement has a fever.

Claims

1. A heart rate measurement unit configured to measure the heart rate of a subject; An acceleration measurement unit configured to measure the acceleration of the subject; An exercise intensity calculation unit configured to calculate the exercise intensity of the subject from the acceleration; A fever detection unit configured to determine the presence or absence of fever of the subject based on the heart rate and the exercise intensity; and The fever detection unit determines that the subject has a fever when the difference between the heart rate and the heart rate corresponding to the exercise intensity exceeds a threshold value. A fever detection device characterized by this.

2. In the fever detection device according to Claim 1, The acceleration measurement unit measures the one-axis acceleration or the three-axis acceleration of the subject. A fever detection device characterized by this.

3. In the fever detection device according to Claim 1, The fever detection unit calculates the heart rate corresponding to the exercise intensity based on the exercise intensity, the known resting heart rate of the subject, the maximum heart rate, the resting oxygen uptake, and the maximum oxygen uptake. A fever detection device characterized by this.

4. In the fever detection device according to Claim 1 or 3, The fever detection unit calculates the threshold value based on the allowable limit value of the body temperature of the subject, the normal body temperature at rest, and the heart rate increase value with respect to the body temperature increase. A fever detection device characterized by this.

5. In the fever detection device according to Claim 4, The fever detection unit sets the allowable limit value of the body temperature according to the presence or absence of heat acclimatization of the subject. A fever detection device characterized by this.

6. A first step of measuring the heart rate of a subject; A second step of measuring the acceleration of the subject; A third step of calculating the exercise intensity of the subject from the acceleration; and A fourth step of determining the presence or absence of fever of the subject based on the heart rate and the exercise intensity, The fourth step includes a step of determining that the subject has a fever when the difference between the heart rate and the heart rate corresponding to the exercise intensity exceeds a threshold value. A fever detection method characterized by this.

7. A fever detection program characterized by causing a computer to execute each step according to Claim 6.
