Abstract
A remote monitoring system that includes a portable measuring device that can be coupled to a portable wireless gateway. The portable measuring device obtains measurements including physiological data, movement data and ambient measurements and provides these measurements to the portable wireless gateway. The portable wireless gateway can interface with a networked personal computer through an USB connector. Once interfaced to the computer, the measurement data can be loaded into the computer and delivered to a central system through the networked personal computer. The system enables the monitoring of a user's medical information to allow diagnostics of the user.
Claims11
A method for remotely monitoring a subject, the method implemented as executable program instructions stored in a storage medium and executed by a processor, both the storage medium and processor being associated with a host computer, the storage medium providing storage of personal information and/or setting parameters, the executable program instructions, when executed, perform a process comprising the acts of:
- downloading the executable program instructions to the host computer;
- and
- in the host computer, executing the executable program instructions to perform a process comprising the acts of:
- accessing at least one of:
- personal information of a user stored in said machine-readable storage medium;
- and
- at least one setting parameter for a measuring device stored in said machine-readable storage medium;
- receiving physiological data pertaining to a user from a measuring device coupled to the host computer through a wireless communication unit;
- processing the received physiological data;
- and
- providing an alert.
A method for remotely monitoring a subject, the method comprising the acts of:
- a host computer interfacing to a storage medium and downloading an executable program into the host computer;
- and
- the host computer executing the executable program instructions to perform the acts of:
- interfacing to a measuring device over a wireless interface, the measuring device being associated with the subject;
- configuring the measuring device;
- receiving physiological data pertaining to the subject from the measuring device coupled;
- processing the received physiological data;
- and
- providing an alert.
A method of remotely monitoring a subject, the method comprising the acts of:
- a host system interfacing to a gateway system to obtain an executable program;
- the host system, in response to executing the executable program, performing a process comprising the acts of:
- obtaining operational data from the gateway system;
- and
- obtaining measurement data from the gateway system;
- the gateway system operating to perform the acts of:
- providing the executable program to the host system;
- interfacing to a measuring device over a wireless interface to obtain measurement data;
- and
- provide the measurement data to the host system.
