An attachment member is attached to the inside of the recess. In the case where a display screen that displays a measurement result is provided on the casing, it is preferable that the first and second surfaces are adjacent to a third surface on which the display screen is provided. Preferably, the attachment member includes an adhesive material layer, a print layer, and an anti-slip layer that is formed of at least one of a resin material and a rubber material, and the adhesive material layer, the print layer, and the anti-slip layer are stacked in sequence. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A medical device that measures a condition of a living body, comprising: a casing; and an attachment member, wherein the attachment member is attached to an exterior of the casing. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The medical device according to claim 1, wherein a recess is provided in the exterior of the casing, and the attachment member is attached to the inside of the recess. ### Claim 3 (depends on 2) The medical device according to claim 2, wherein the casing is provided with a display screen that displays a measurement result, and the recess is provided in a surface adjacent to a surface where the display screen is provided. ### Claim 4 (depends on 2) The medical device according to claim 2, wherein the recess is provided such that a gap is formed between an opening edge thereof and the attachment member. ### Claim 5 (depends on 4) The medical device according to claim 4, wherein the medical device further comprises a cover that closes the gap, the cover is fixed to the recess via an elastic body, and the elastic body is elastically deformed when the cover is pressed toward the inside of the recess by an external force. ### Claim 6 (depends on 2) The medical device according to claim 2, wherein the casing is provided with a groove along an outer circumference of the recess. ### Claim 7 (depends on 2) The medical device according to claim 2, wherein the recess is formed such that the bottom of a cross section thereof is V-shaped. ### Claim 8 (depends on 1) The medical device according to claim 1, wherein the attachment member comprises an adhesive material layer, a print layer, and an anti-slip layer that is formed of at least one of a resin material and a rubber material, and the adhesive material layer, the print layer, and the anti-slip layer are stacked in sequence. ### Claim 9 (depends on 1) The medical device according to claim 1, wherein the attachment member comprises an adhesive material layer, and an anti-slip layer having optical transparency and being formed of at least one of a resin material and a rubber material, the anti-slip layer includes granular identification members that are dispersed therein, and the identification members are formed of any of a luminescent material, a thermochromic material, and a light reflective material. ### Claim 10 (depends on 1) The medical device according to claim 1, wherein the attachment member comprises an adhesive material layer, an identification layer, and an anti-slip layer having optical transparency and being formed of at least one of a resin material and a rubber material, the adhesive material layer, the identification layer, and the anti-slip layer are stacked in sequence, and the identification layer is formed of at least one of a luminescent material and a light reflective material. ### Claim 11 (depends on 1) The medical device according to claim 1, wherein the attachment member comprises an adhesive material layer, an anti-slip layer that is formed of at least one of a resin material and a rubber material, and an identification layer, the adhesive material layer, the anti-slip layer, and the identification layer are stacked in sequence, and the identification layer is formed of any of a luminescent material, a thermochromic material, and a light reflective material. ### Claim 12 (depends on 1) The medical device according to claim 1, wherein the attachment member comprises an adhesive material layer, a fragrance component-impregnated layer containing a fragrance component, and an anti-slip layer having porosity and being formed of at least one of a resin material and a rubber material, the fragrance component-impregnated layer is disposed on one side of the adhesive material layer, and the anti-slip layer is formed on the one side of the adhesive material layer so as to cover the fragrance component-impregnated layer. ### Claim 13 (depends on 1) The medical device according to claim 1, wherein the attachment member comprises an adhesive material layer, a circuit substrate on which a pressure sensor and a speaker are mounted, and an anti-slip layer that is formed of at least one of a resin material and a rubber material, the circuit substrate is disposed on one side of the adhesive material layer, and comprises a driving circuit that drives the speaker in accordance with a signal from the pressure sensor, and the anti-slip layer is formed on the one side of the adhesive material layer so as to cover the circuit substrate, the pressure sensor, and the speaker. ### Claim 14 (depends on 1) The medical device according to claim 1, wherein the attachment member comprises at least an adhesive material layer and an anti-slip layer that is formed of at least one of a resin material and a rubber material, and a recess is formed in the anti-slip layer.
