1. A method for continuously monitoring a medical condition of a user, the method comprising:
- providing a pulse-oximeter configured to continuously monitor the SpO2 and pulse of the user;
providing an skin temperature monitor configured to continuously monitor the user;
storing, using a memory coupled to the monitors, medical values that indicate an emergency state of the user;
continuously determining, using a processor, whether the medical condition of the user is within the medical values;
assigning, using the processor, an emergency code based on the medical condition of the user and the medical values;
determining, using a navigation unit, a current location of the processor; and
transmitting, using the processor, via a cellular-based communications system, the emergency code and the current location to an emergency response provider;
transmitting, using the processor, via a wireless (WiFi®
, Bluetooth®
or Encrypted) based communications system, the emergency code and the current location to an emergency response provider.

Abstract
The Mobile Companion is a wrist or ankle worn device that combines the attributes of a watch, smartphone, pulse-oximeter, temperature monitor and accelerometer into a health monitoring device that can maintain and transmit both positional and medical conditions of the wearer. The System also has a programmable processing unit that can set parameters to allow the device to automatically alert military or civilian emergency services without the users input when certain emergency criteria is met. The System can also maintain full medical records for secured data transmission to authorized personnel.

11. A method for continuously monitoring for violent impacts of a user, the method comprising:
-
providing an accelerometer to continuously monitor a g-force of the user; storing, using a memory coupled to the accelerometer, values that indicate an emergency state of the user; continuously determining, using a processor, whether the g-force of the user is within dangerous values; assigning, using the processor, an emergency code based on the g-force of the user and the values that indicate the emergency state of the user; determining, using a navigation unit, a current location of the processor; and transmitting, using the processor, via a cellular-based communications system, the emergency code and the current location to an emergency response provider. transmitting, using the processor, via a wireless (WiFi®
, Bluetooth®
or Encrypted) based communications system, the emergency code and the current location to an emergency response provider. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
