Information processing apparatus, portable communication terminal, and control methods and control programs thereof

An information processing method comprising:

• when a medical measurement device is connected to a portable communication terminal, acquiring specifying information for specifying the medical measurement device via the portable communication terminal;
• executing a driver program corresponding to the specifying information without downloading a measuring program into the portable communication terminal;
• receiving, via the portable communication terminal, measurement result information of a measurement target person measured by the medical measurement device;
• receiving, from the portable communication terminal, measurement target person information for specifying the measurement target person measured by the medical measurement device;
• accumulating the measurement target person information and the measurement result information in association with each other;
• and
• transmitting accumulated information to one of the portable communication terminal and a medical care worker communication terminal.

A non-transitory computer readable medium storing an information processing program for causing a computer to execute a method, comprising:

• when a medical measurement device is connected to a portable communication terminal, acquiring specifying information for specifying the medical measurement device via the portable communication terminal;
• executing a driver program corresponding to the specifying information without downloading a measuring program into the portable communication terminal;
• receiving, via the portable communication terminal, measurement result information of a measurement target person measured by the medical measurement device;
• receiving, from the portable communication terminal, measurement target person information for specifying the measurement target person measured by the medical measurement device;
• accumulating the measurement target person information and the measurement result information in association with each other;
• and
• transmitting accumulated information to one of the portable communication terminal and a medical care worker communication terminal.

A portable communication terminal comprising:

• a determinator that determines, when a medical measurement device is connected via a communication interface, whether a local terminal can control the medical measurement device;
• a request unit that, when said determinator determines that the local terminal cannot control the medical measurement device, accesses a server via a wireless communication network, and requests acquisition of measurement result information from the medical measurement device on the basis of specifying information that specifies the medical measurement device;
• a signal transfer control unit that controls signal transfer between the medical measurement device and the server via the communication interface and the wireless communication network so as to be able to establish communication between the medical measurement device and the server and acquire, by the server, measurement result information measured by the medical measurement device as a result of the server executing a driver program corresponding to the specifying information without downloading a measuring program into the portable communication terminal;
• and
• a transmitter that transmits, to the server in association with each other, the measurement result information and measurement target person information for specifying a measurement target person.

A control method of a portable communication terminal, comprising:

• determining, when a medical measurement device is connected via a communication interface, whether a local terminal can control the medical measurement device;
• when the local terminal is determined in the determining not to be able to control the medical measurement device, accessing a server via a wireless communication network, and requesting acquisition of measurement result information from the medical measurement device on the basis of specifying information that specifies the medical measurement device;
• controlling signal transfer between the medical measurement device and the server via the communication interface and the wireless communication network so as to be able to establish communication between the medical measurement device and the server and acquire, by the server, measurement result information measured by the medical measurement device as a result of the server executing a driver program corresponding to the specifying information without downloading a measuring program into the portable communication terminal;
• and
• transmitting, to the server in association with each other, the measurement result information and measurement target person information for specifying a measurement target person.
