Abstract

A physiological information measuring apparatus includes: a display controller that, based on information indicating a respiration interval of a patient, is configured to produce a respiration interval graph in which a first axis indicates time information, and a second axis indicates a length of the respiration interval, and that is configured to control a displaying section to display the respiration interval graph, the display controller that is configured to reset a value of the second axis of the respiration interval graph, at each time when the respiration interval starts.

Claims

1. A physiological information measuring apparatus comprising:

a display controller that, based on information indicating a respiration interval of a patient, is configured to produce a respiration interval graph in which a first axis indicates time information, and a second axis indicates a length of the respiration interval, and that is configured to control a displaying section to display the respiration interval graph,

the display controller that is configured to reset a value of the second axis of the respiration interval graph, at each time when the respiration interval starts.

2. The physiological information measuring apparatus according to claim 1, wherein

the display controller is configured to control the display section to display the respiration interval graph together with information indicating an abnormal value.

3. The physiological information measuring apparatus according to claim 1, further comprising:

a storage section that is configured to store a history of the respiration interval, wherein

the display controller is configured to get the history from the storage section, produce the respiration interval graph, and control the displaying section to display the respiration interval graph.

4. The physiological information measuring apparatus according to claim 1, further comprising:

an abnormality detector that is configured to determine whether the respiration interval detected by a respiration interval detector is abnormal or not.

5. The physiological information measuring apparatus according to claim 4, wherein

the abnormality detector is configured to detect an abnormality based on whether the respiration interval meets a predetermined standard or not.

6. The physiological information measuring apparatus according to claim 4, wherein

the abnormality detector is configured to detect an abnormality based on a changing of the respiration interval.

7. The physiological information measuring apparatus according to claim 1, wherein

the display controller is configured to control the displaying section to display the respiration interval graph together with a measurement value or a measurement waveform of a vital sign.

8. The physiological information measuring apparatus according to claim 1, further comprising:

a respiration interval detector that is configured to detect the respiration interval of the patient based on respiration information which is acquired from a living body of the patient.

9. A respiration interval displaying method comprising:

based on information indicating a respiration interval of a patient, producing a respiration interval graph in which a first axis indicates time information, and a second axis indicates a length of the respiration interval, and controlling a displaying section to display the respiration interval graph; and

resetting a value of the second axis of the respiration interval graph, at each time when the respiration interval starts.

10. A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program causing a computer to perform a process, the process comprising:

based on information indicating a respiration interval of a patient, producing a respiration interval graph in which a first axis indicates time information, and a second axis indicates a length of the respiration interval, and controlling a displaying section to display the respiration interval graph; and

resetting a value of the second axis of the respiration interval graph, at each time when the respiration interval starts.
