Abstract
Disclosed is an on-line healthcare system using a domestic medical device and a method thereof. The on-line healthcare system comprises a portable measurement unit for performing a biological measurement for diagnosing a user'"'"'s health and converting measured data so as to generate biological measurement information data and/or measurement information data including a part of the biological measurement data; and a cradle connected to the portable measurement unit so as to automatically transmit/receive the measurement information data to/from the portable measurement unit by means of a program accommodated therein. The on-line healthcare system is economical because the on-line healthcare system does not require an additional personal computer in order to provide tele-healthcare services. Also, the on-line healthcare system does not require additional handling in order to transfer data, so that usage of the on-line healthcare system is simple.

34. An on-line healthcare method by using a domestic medical device including a portable measurement unit having a measurement part, a signal processing part, and a first communication module of the portable measurement unit, and a cradle having a program included therein and a second communication port of the cradle, the on-line healthcare method comprising the steps of:
-
(a) allowing the cradle to perform biological measurement for diagnosing health of a user;
(b) allowing the signal processing module to convert a result of the biological measurement into biological measurement data;
(c) determining whether or not an emergency occurs according to an analysis result of the biological measurement data measured by the portable measurement unit;
(d) transferring the measurement information data including a part of the biological measurement data to the cradle by using the second communication module of the cradle, the first communication module of the portable measurement unit, and the program included in the cradle, the cradle being automatically operated when the portable measuring unit makes contact with the cradle, if step (c) determines that no emergency occurs; and
(e) transferring the measurement information data received by the cradle to the server by using the program included in the cradle and the second communication module of the cradle. - View Dependent Claims (35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 43, 45, 46, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56, 58, 59, 70, 71, 72, 73)
