Abstract
A blood pressure measurement and reminder system comprising a blood pressure measuring unit, a reminder unit, and an input unit is disclosed. The system is configured to transmit reminder signal(s) noticeable to its users for alerting them to take blood pressure measurement within a pre-determined measurement time schedule, and send confirmation signal(s) to the reminder unit to switch off the reminder state once the user has successfully taken a blood pressure measurement.
Claims9
A reminder method for taking blood pressure measurement in a blood pressure measurement reminder system, wherein said blood pressure measurement reminder system comprises:
- I. a blood pressure measuring unit comprising a measurement subunit adapted for a user to take blood pressure measurement;
- II. a signal transmitter connected to said measuring subunit and adapted for transmitting signal(s);
- III. at least one reminder unit comprising:
- i. an alarm subunit adapted to send reminder signal(s) to remind said user to take said blood pressure measurement;
- and
- ii. a communication subunit adapted to receive signal(s) transmitted from said signal transmitter;
- wherein said reminder unit is adapted to be switchable between a reminder state and a reminder-off state;
- IV. a projector module for projecting a result of said blood pressure measurement and a blood pressure classification thereof;
- wherein said reminder unit is remote and physically separate from said blood pressure measuring unit and capable of wireless interaction and wireless communication therewith;
- said reminder unit is triggerable to switch to said reminder state according to said user's input;
- wherein upon taking said blood pressure measurement by said user within a measurement time schedule, said signal transmitter transmits confirmation signal(s) to said communication subunit to switch said reminder unit from said reminder state to said reminder-off state;
- said reminder method comprising the steps of:
- a). receiving said measurement time schedule from said user;
- b). checking whether a starting time of said measurement time schedule has been reached;
- c). triggering said reminder unit to switch to said reminder state and triggering said alarm subunit to send said reminder signal(s) to said user once said starting time is reached;
- d). transmitting said confirmation signal(s) from said signal transmitter to said communication subunit of said reminder unit upon taking said blood pressure measurement by said user;
- e). triggering said reminder unit to switch from said reminder state to said reminder-off state;
- and
- f). projecting said result of said blood pressure measurement and said blood pressure classification thereof on a wall.
