The Related Art

The invention relates to a systematic and integrated health and disease management system designed for individuals who have life risk and whose health data are required to be monitored remotely.

The invention relates to a system wherein health data of person are collected, stored and assessments thereof are conducted, various results and gaining are achieved. Said system is particularly designed for remote patient monitoring. When patients are out of hospital, their important health data (EKG, pulse etc.) are collected on the system of the invention and are sent to artificial intelligence software in said invention technology. Said artificial intelligence executes logical comments regarding patient in line with the received data and starts guiding and responding stages for patient and patient treatment stage. The invention relates to a system which will be used in all areas containing medical device, health, mining, power, military, defense industry, weapons industry and all areas having dangerous work branches, and any area requiring current status and monitoring of human health.

Background of the Invention In an existing application, measurement of health data such as EKG, diabetics, pulse, blood pressure are taken as basis. When said application is examined, it is seen that only instant measurements are made. In other words, in order to conduct EKG measurement, start command is given to the system and after taking measurements, the system is shut down. This system does not measure individuals' health parameters on constant basis and does not give information about any negative situation. If health condition of the individual gets worse, various systems are needed to discover such case. On the other hand, said existing application has difficulties in transmission of health data received from the individuals to health professionals for assessment of such data (because of no real time data transmission, communication systems such as telephone, mail etc. are used) and thus time loss and incorrect data transmission may occur. This causes delay in trio-process of individual-physician-intervention and causes need for more infrastructures.

Existing systems do not allow estimation of ambience based variables and comparison of differences in body system and thus concluding an algorithmic result on whether or not there is a problematic situation. For instance, a person sitting by stove may cause waste of health professional's time unnecessarily assuming that s/he has temperature. Whereas, having raising body temperature of a person sitting by stove is very natural. For that reason, it is necessary to monitor body changes (body temperature increase, pulse increase etc.) upon taking into account the ambience based variables. As a result, due to above described disadvantages and inadequacy of existing solutions, it has been necessary to make development in the related art.

Purpose of the Invention

The invention has been developed with inspiration from existing situation and aims to eliminate the above mentioned disadvantages. Main purpose of the invention is to provide continued and real time related health data of the individual in order to keep his/her health status under control. Because of it, the general system disclosed under the invention works on 7/24 basis.

Another purpose of the invention is to provide that individuals are not required to perform any special procedure for operation of all components of the system. A wearable device has been designed for it. When the individual wears the wearable device, the components start to receive data from body automatically and transmit them to required database instantly. Thus the individual is not required to conduct any extra operation.

Another purpose of the invention is to collect the individual's ambience data about his/her living area on 7/24 basis and provide transmission of them on real time basis. (Existing systems also run on storage basis and do not provide transmission on 7/24 basis.) .

A further purpose of the invention is to provide instant measurement of 16 different status data (emergency case, severe pain, dizziness, blood from mouth, vomiting, diarrhea, instantly developed loss of power, urinating, defecating, swelling, bleeding, going to urinate, exercise, water consumption, food consumption, chest pain) by help of smart button which can be developed. For instance, vomiting button (smart button) is placed near washbasin and patient is instructed to press vomiting button each time s/he vomits in advance and thus transmission of such data instantly to the main system is provided as the patient presses button in case of vomiting.

Another purpose of the invention is to conduct real time evaluation automatically upon sending all health data received from the individuals to the central control system by use of wireless technologies. Thus the system can be reached to level to intervene individual's health issue not only very fast but also with minimum infrastructure whenever required.

In order to achieve above described purposes, the invention is health monitoring system providing remote monitoring, storing and assessment of health data by decision aiding system

EKG circuit (10.1 ) to measure health data, Sp0 ₂ circuit (10.2), body temperature and humidity circuit (10.3), movement circuit (10.4) and multi-sensor input apparatus (C) are located on said wearable device (10). The purpose of multi-sensor apparatus (C) is to provide data communication between all circuits (Sp0 ₂ circuit (10.2), body temperature and humidity circuit (10.3), movement circuit (10.4)) on the wearable device (10) and all sensors (Sp0 ₂ sensor (10.2.1 ), body temperature and humidity sensor (10.3.1 ), movement sensor (10.4.1 )) located on the patient body. One end of the sensors (Sp0 ₂ sensor (10.2.1 ), body temperature and humidity sensor (10.3.1 ), movement sensor (10.4.1 )) is located on the body and other end is inserted into multi- sensor input apparatus (C). Thus all circuits ((Sp0 ₂ circuit (10.2), body temperature and humidity circuit (10.3), movement circuit (10.4)) receive the data from multi-sensor input apparatus (C).

Wearable device (10) receives the measurement values of above mentioned sensors every second and transmits them to gateway device (50) via wireless communication module -1 (10.5) located thereon, through zigbee/ bluetooth/ wifi while the patient is in the environment where system is.

SP0 ₂ sensors in existing systems are designed to make measurements from finger. However, said SpC>2 sensor (10.2.1 ) in our invention is revised to conduct measurement on human body (sensor is adhered to chest space from around chest space). Sp02 sensor (10.2.1 ) adhered to chest space works with the function same as the one conducting measurement from finger.

Body temperature and humidity circuit (10.3) is located on the wearable device (10) to measure body temperature and humidity. Body temperature and humidity circuit (10.3) is in communication with the body temperature and humidity sensor (10.3.1 ) by means of multi-sensor input apparatus (Q) and measurements are conducted automatically.
