Portable biological information monitor apparatus and information management apparatus
First Claim
1. A portable biological information monitor apparatus which is attached to a body of a test subject when it is used, comprising:
- biological information detection means for repeatedly detecting biological information reflecting at least one of pulse, body motion, and autonomic nervous function of the test subject;
barometer generation means that has a plurality of generation modes corresponding to the test subject'"'"'s actions and operates in any of the generation modes, wherein the generation modes include at least a first generation mode to generate a sleep evaluation barometer as a barometer for evaluation of a test subject'"'"'s status in sleep based on the biological information detected by the biological information detection means and a second generation mode to generate a wake evaluation barometer as a barometer for evaluation of a test subject'"'"'s status in wake based on the biological information detected by the biological information detection means; and
storage means for storing the barometer generated by the barometer generation means.

Abstract
In a portable biological information monitor apparatus, a pulse wave detection signal obtained by light emission from a green LED and a body motion detection signal obtained by light emission from an infrared LED are detected as biological information. This biological information is analyzed to compute various barometers. In a wake normal mode of a set generation mode, body motion and pulse are calculated as wake evaluation barometers for evaluation of a test subject'"'"'s status in wake. In a wake steady state motion mode, body motion, pulse, and pitch are calculated as motion evaluation barometers for evaluation of the test subject'"'"'s status in steady state motion. In a sleep mode, body motion, pulse, and autonomic nervous function are calculated as sleep evaluation barometers for evaluation of the test subject'"'"'s status in sleep. Necessary barometers are thereby generated regardless of the test subject'"'"'s action using the portable monitor apparatus alone.
