Abstract
Methods, systems, and products measure health data related to a user. A time-stamped device identifier is received that uniquely identifies a communications device. A time-stamped sensor measurement is separately received. A difference in time between the time-stamped device identifier and the time-stamped sensor measurement is determined. When the difference in time is within a window of time, then the sensor measurement is associated with the device identifier.
Claims20
A method of monitoring physiological data via the Internet, comprising:
- receiving, by a server, a device identifier sent via the Internet, the device identifier uniquely identifying a mobile communications device;
- receiving, by the server, the physiological data sent via the Internet;
- determining, by the server, a difference in time between the device identifier and the physiological data;
- determining, by the server, that the difference in time satisfies a confidence in contemporaneousness;
- and
- storing, by the server, an electronic association between the device identifier and the physiological data in response to the difference in time satisfying the confidence in contemporaneousness.
A system, comprising:
- a hardware processor;
- and
- a memory device, the memory device storing instructions, the instructions when executed causing the hardware processor to perform operations, the operations comprising:
- receiving a device identifier sent via the Internet, the device identifier uniquely identifying a mobile communications device;
- receiving physiological data sent via the Internet;
- determining a difference in time between the device identifier and the physiological data;
- determining that the difference in time satisfies a confidence in contemporaneousness;
- and
- storing an electronic association between the device identifier and the physiological data in response to the difference in time satisfying the confidence in contemporaneousness.
