<Device configuration>
FIG. 1 is a diagram showing a specific example of the configuration of a blood glucose / activity amount measurement display device (hereinafter abbreviated as a measurement device) 1 according to the present embodiment. Since the measurement apparatus 1 is assumed to be used by a person to be measured, such as wearing it on a part of clothes and measuring the amount of activity, the portable apparatus has a portable size, weight, and shape.

  A plurality of electrodes (not shown) of the blood glucose measurement unit 20 are arranged at positions that contact the blood glucose measurement chip 2 inserted into the insertion hole. A predetermined current flows through the electrode of the blood glucose measurement unit 20 by an oxidation-reduction reaction between the chemical applied to the blood glucose measurement chip 2 and glucose in the blood.

Furthermore, the activity amount of the measurement subject 1 carrying the measuring device 1 is measured in real time, and the activity amount from the time when the blood glucose level is measured reaches the activity amount corresponding to the target blood glucose level set in advance, and is notified. To do.

<Functional configuration>
FIG. 2 is a block diagram illustrating a specific example of a functional configuration of the processing unit 30 for executing the above-described operation in the measurement apparatus 1. The functions shown in FIG. 2 are mainly formed on the CPU 31 when the CPU 31 of the processing unit 30 reads and executes a program stored in the memory 32. At least a part of the functions is shown in FIG. It may be configured by hardware such as a circuit.

  With reference to FIG. 2, the processing unit 30 includes a first input unit 301 for receiving an input of an acceleration measurement value from the acceleration measurement unit 11 of the activity amount measurement unit 10, and a current measurement unit 21 of the blood glucose measurement unit 20. The second input unit 302 for receiving the input of the current value from the above and the formula for calculating the amount of activity using the acceleration as a parameter are stored in advance, and the measured acceleration value substituted for the formula is input. Thus, an activity amount calculation unit 303 for calculating the activity amount and an equation for calculating a blood glucose level using the current value as a parameter are stored in advance, and the current value input to the equation is substituted. A blood glucose level calculation unit 304 for calculating a blood glucose level, a control unit 305 for calculating a recommended activity amount or an estimated blood glucose level from the activity amount and the blood glucose level, and causing the display unit 40 to display a display based thereon, and an operation For operation of unit 50 Accepting an input of an operation signal from the operation unit 50 Tsu, and a setting unit 306 for setting the target blood glucose level according to the operation signal.

  The control unit 305 further includes a coefficient storage unit 101 for storing a coefficient representing a change amount of the blood glucose level with respect to the unit activity amount, a target blood glucose level storage unit 102 for storing the set target blood glucose level, and an input A recommended activity amount calculation unit 103 for calculating a recommended activity amount using the set blood glucose level and coefficient and a preset target blood glucose level, and the input blood glucose level and the input activity amount and coefficient Based on the estimated blood glucose level calculation unit 104 for calculating the estimated blood glucose level and the input activity amount and the calculated recommended activity amount, or based on the estimated blood glucose level and a preset target blood glucose level A determination unit 105 for determining the notification timing and a display control unit 106 for controlling the display of the display unit 40 are included.

  The control unit 305 may further include a coefficient calculation unit 107 for calculating the coefficient as shown in FIG.

  The coefficient calculation unit 107 calculates a coefficient from the blood glucose level and the activity amount measured when the measurement measurement mode is entered, for example, by a mode determination button (not shown) included in the operation unit 50.

Specifically, when the coefficient measurement mode is entered, the blood glucose level is first measured, and the blood glucose level at that time is stored as blood glucose level 1 together with the measurement. At that time, the memory of the activity amount in the memory 22 is reset, and the measurement of the activity amount is started. The amount of activity measured for a predetermined time is stored as activity amount 2. When the activity for the predetermined time is finished, the blood glucose level is measured once again and stored as blood glucose level 2. Then, as an example, according to the following equation (1), a coefficient representing the amount of change in blood glucose level relative to the unit activity amount, that is, a coefficient indicating how much the blood glucose level changes by performing a certain amount of activity,
(Blood glucose level 2−blood glucose level 1) / activity amount 2 = coefficient (1).

  The amount of activity between the time of measuring blood glucose level 1 and the time of measuring blood glucose level 2 may be reset at the time when blood glucose level 1 is measured, and a new amount of activity may be accumulated. The amount of activity during the blood glucose measurement time may be read from the memory 32 and calculated. The predetermined time for measuring the amount of activity is, for example, every 10 seconds. Preferably, the coefficient is calculated when fasting or at least 3 hours after eating. This is because the blood sugar level is relatively stable in a resting state, so that changes due to exercise are likely to occur.

  As described above, the coefficient calculation unit 107 is included in the control unit 305, and by calculating the coefficient from the activity amount obtained by the measurement and the blood glucose level, it is possible to obtain the optimum coefficient for the measurement subject. However, the coefficient calculation unit 107 is not included in the control unit 305, and a predetermined value may be stored in the coefficient storage unit 101 in advance as a coefficient. Since there is data that the average blood glucose level decreases by about 40 mg / dl on average at an activity level of 140 kcal, even if 0.286 (mg / dl / kcal) is stored using this data as the value used as the coefficient, for example Good.

<Operation flow of first operation>
FIG. 3 is a flowchart showing the first operation. The operation shown in the flowchart of FIG. 3 is realized by causing the CPU 31 of the processing unit 30 to read and execute a program stored in the memory 32 to exhibit each function of FIG.

  Referring to FIG. 3, in step S101, CPU 31 accepts an input of a current value obtained by reading blood glucose measurement chip 2 by blood glucose measurement unit 20, and in step S103, based on the current value, CPU 31 calculate.

  In step S105, the CPU 31 displays the calculated blood glucose level on the display unit 40 as shown in FIG. 4, for example, as the blood glucose level at the time of measurement. FIG. 4 is a diagram illustrating a display example of blood glucose measurement values.

  In step S107, the CPU 31 reads out the above-described coefficient representing the amount of change in blood sugar level relative to the unit activity amount and a preset target blood sugar level, and in step S109, the blood sugar level calculated in step S103 and the read coefficient. Then, the recommended activity amount is calculated using the target blood glucose level.

When the coefficient is obtained according to the above equation (1) or defined by the above equation (1), the CPU 31 calculates at step S109 according to the following equation (2) at step S103. Calculate the recommended amount of activity using blood glucose level 3, coefficient, and target blood glucose level.
Recommended activity amount = (blood glucose level−target blood glucose level) / coefficient (2).

  In step S111, the CPU 31 displays the calculated recommended activity amount on the display unit 40 as shown in FIG. 5, for example. FIG. 5 is a diagram illustrating a display example of the recommended activity amount.

  By performing such an operation, the person to be measured can know how much activity (for example, walking) should be performed from the current blood glucose level to the target blood glucose level, and perform an appropriate activity. Can be performed.

  FIG. 6 is a flowchart showing another example of the first operation, and is a flowchart showing an operation after the operation shown in the flowchart of FIG.

  Referring to FIG. 6, as a first operation, CPU 31 further initializes a predetermined area of memory 32 for storing an activity amount in step S113, and then in step S115, acceleration from activity amount measuring unit 10 is initialized. In step S117, an activity amount at that time is calculated based on the measurement value, and added to the previous activity amount stored in the predetermined area of the memory 32. Overwrite and store in a predetermined area. As a result, in the predetermined area of the memory 32, the integrated value of the activity amount from the initialization to the current time is stored.

  This is assumed to be a method in which the measurement subject who has measured the blood glucose level in step S101 starts the activity while carrying the measurement device 1. That is, the activity amount started after the measurement of the blood glucose level is measured.

  In step S119, the CPU 31 displays the calculated integrated value of the activity amount on the display unit 40 as shown in FIG. 7, for example, as the total activity amount up to the present time. FIG. 7 is a diagram illustrating a display example of the total activity amount.

  The input of the acceleration measurement value from the activity amount measuring unit 10 in step S115 is performed at a predetermined time interval set in advance. That is, the activity amount of the measurement subject is measured at predetermined intervals.

  The CPU 31 compares the activity amount calculated and stored in step S117 with the recommended activity amount calculated in step S109 to determine whether or not the measured activity amount has reached the recommended activity amount. to decide. As a result, when it is determined that the measured activity amount has not yet reached the recommended activity amount (NO in step S121), the CPU 31 returns the operation to step S115 and continues to measure the activity amount.

  At this time, the CPU 31 preferably notifies that the current activity amount has not reached the recommended activity amount (step S123). More preferably, the CPU 31 calculates the difference between the calculated current activity amount and the recommended activity amount and displays it on the display unit 40 as shown in FIG. 8 to determine how much the recommended activity amount is insufficient. indicate. FIG. 8 is a diagram showing an example of a notification screen, and shows an example of a screen for notifying the amount of activity that is insufficient for the recommended amount of activity.

  The notification here is not limited to the display as shown in FIG. 8, and may be a voice notification when the measurement apparatus 1 includes a speaker, or a light emitting unit such as an LED lamp. The notification based on the light emission or the color of the lamp may be used, and when a vibration function is provided, the notification based on the presence or absence of the vibration or the degree thereof may be used.

  If the measurement of the activity amount is continued and it is determined that the measured activity amount has reached the recommended activity amount (YES in step S121), it is displayed on the display unit 40 as shown in FIG. Inform the effect. FIG. 9 is a diagram showing an example of a notification screen, and shows an example of a screen for notifying that the activity amount measured by displaying a message that the recommended activity amount has been reached has reached the recommended activity amount. .

  Similarly to the above, the notification here is not limited to the display as shown in FIG. 9. If the measurement apparatus 1 includes a speaker, the notification may be performed by voice, or a light emitting unit such as an LED lamp. May be notified by the light emission or the color of the lamp, or may be notified by the presence or absence of the vibration or the degree thereof when the vibration function is provided.

  By performing such an operation, the person to be measured can perform an activity that approximately reaches the target blood glucose level without performing blood glucose measurement during the activity.

  In the flowchart of FIG. 6, the series of operations is completed as described above. However, after the notification in step S125 is performed, the operation is returned to step S115 and the activity amount measurement is continued. May be. However, in this case, since the activity exceeding the recommended activity amount calculated in step S111 is performed, there is a possibility that the blood glucose level is lower than a preset target blood glucose level. In that case, you may make it the display mode of the total activity amount in the said step S119 differ from the display mode when not reaching the recommended activity amount. Examples of the display mode include the display color, the presence / absence of character size animation, and combinations thereof. By displaying in this way, even if the person to be measured is not aware of the notification in step S125, the current blood sugar level may be below the target blood sugar level at a glance. I can know.

<Operation Flow of Second Operation>
FIG. 10 is a flowchart showing the second operation. The operations shown in the flowchart of FIG. 10 are also realized by causing the CPU 31 of the processing unit 30 to read and execute a program stored in the memory 32 to exhibit each function of FIG.

  Referring to FIG. 10, in step S201, CPU 31 accepts an input of a current value obtained by reading blood glucose measurement chip by blood glucose measurement unit 20, and calculates a blood glucose level based on the current value in step S203. To do.

  In step S205, the CPU 31 displays the calculated blood glucose level on the display unit 40 as shown in FIG. 4, for example, as the blood glucose level at the time of measurement.

  After initializing a predetermined area of the memory 32 for storing the activity amount in step S207, the input of the acceleration measurement value from the activity amount measurement unit 10 is accepted in step S209, and based on the measurement value in step S211. The activity amount at that time is calculated, added to the previous activity amount stored in the predetermined area of the memory 32, and then overwritten and stored in the predetermined area. As a result, in the predetermined area of the memory 32, the integrated value of the activity amount from the initialization to the current time is stored.

  In step S213, the CPU 31 reads the above-described coefficient representing the amount of change in blood glucose level with respect to the unit activity amount, and calculates the estimated blood glucose level using the blood glucose level calculated in step S203 and the read coefficient in step S215. .

When the coefficient is obtained according to the above equation (1) or defined by the above equation (1), the CPU 31 calculates at step S215 according to the following equation (3) at step S203. The recommended activity amount is calculated using the blood glucose level 4, the activity amount calculated in step S211 and the coefficient,
Estimated blood glucose level = blood glucose level−coefficient × blood glucose level 3 Equation (3).

  In step S217, the CPU 31 displays the calculated estimated blood sugar level on the display unit 40 as shown in FIG. 11, for example. FIG. 11 is a diagram illustrating a display example of an estimated blood sugar level. Further, in step S217, as shown in FIG. 12, the CPU 31 may display the estimated blood sugar level and the amount of activity calculated in step S211 in a switchable manner by a predetermined operation.

  By performing such an operation, the measurement subject can know the estimated value of the blood glucose level after the activity without performing the blood glucose level measurement operation. That is, it is possible to know the estimated value of the blood glucose level after the activity while suppressing the burden of blood glucose level measurement on the measurement subject.

  FIG. 13 is a flowchart showing another example of the second operation, and is a flowchart showing an operation after the operation shown in the flowchart of FIG.

  Referring to FIG. 13, as the second operation, when the estimated blood glucose level is calculated in step S215, CPU 31 reads the target blood glucose level set in advance in step S219 and calculates it in step S215. The estimated blood glucose level is compared with the target blood glucose level to determine whether or not the estimated blood glucose level has reached the target blood glucose level.

  As a result, when it is determined that the estimated blood glucose level has not yet reached the target blood glucose level (NO in step S221), the CPU 31 returns the operation to step S209 and continues to measure the activity amount.

  The input of the acceleration measurement value from the activity amount measurement unit 10 in step S209 is performed at a predetermined time interval set in advance, as in the first operation. That is, the activity amount of the measurement subject is measured at a predetermined interval, and the estimated blood glucose level is calculated at the predetermined interval.

  When it is determined that the calculated estimated blood glucose level has reached a preset target blood glucose level (YES in step S221), it is displayed on the display unit 40, for example, as shown in FIG. Is notified. FIG. 14 is a diagram showing an example of a notification screen, which notifies that the estimated blood glucose level calculated from the amount of activity measured by displaying a message that the target blood glucose level has been reached has reached the target blood glucose level. An example of the screen to be displayed is shown.

  Similarly to the above, the notification here is not limited to the display as shown in FIG. 14, and if the measurement apparatus 1 includes a speaker, the notification may be performed by voice or a light emitting unit such as an LED lamp. May be notified by the light emission or the color of the lamp, or may be notified by the presence or absence of the vibration or the degree thereof when the vibration function is provided.

  By performing such an operation, the person to be measured can perform an activity that approximately reaches the target blood glucose level without performing blood glucose measurement during the activity.

  In the flowchart of FIG. 13, the series of operations is completed as described above. However, after the notification in step S223 is performed, the operation is returned to step S209 in FIG. Measurement may be continued. However, in this case, the blood glucose level may be lower than the target blood glucose level due to subsequent activities. In this case, the notification screen in step S223 may be displayed in a display mode different from the notification screen when the target blood glucose level is first reached. Examples of the display mode include the display color, the presence / absence of character size animation, and combinations thereof. By displaying in this way, even if the person to be measured has not noticed the notification in step S223 that the target blood glucose level has been reached first, the current blood glucose level is the target blood glucose level. You can see at a glance that it may be below.

<Effect of Embodiment>

Appropriate evaluation and advice can be obtained in real time based on the activity level and blood glucose level. That is, an appropriate activity for reaching the target blood glucose level can be performed without the burden of frequently measuring the blood glucose level.

<Modification>
