1. Method, comprising:
- receiving, at a user interface, user input indicating an identity of a user;
receiving from direct user input and/or from a biological sensor engaged with the user, numeric input representing a measurable physical parameter of the user;
storing a time associated with the numeric input along with the numeric input;
outputting for display a visualization of the user'"'"'s history of the measurable physical parameter; and
outputting for display at least one selectable parameter selectable to input numbers representative thereof, the at least one selectable parameter including “
blood pressure” and
/or “
blood glucose”
, wherein the visualization includes a graph of time versus parameter value and upper and/or lower limit lines established per guidance as to what upper and/or lower “
safe”
limits of the parameter being displayed are.

Abstract
An IPTV can receive a user name and present a screen enabling a user by means of a remote control to select health information categories, inputting numeric parameters into the selected categories which can be uploaded to an Internet server for analysis and viewed by the user for subsequent monitoring/charting.

5. Apparatus comprising:
-
at least one computer memory that is not a transitory signal and that comprises instructions executable by at least one processor for; receiving input indicating an identity of a user; receiving numeric input representing a measurable physical parameter of the user; storing a time associated with the numeric input along with the input; presenting on a display a visualization of the user'"'"'s history of the measurable physical parameter; and responsive to respective input from a user of the apparatus, disabling and enabling automatically contacting a medical caregiver responsive to a measurement of the measurable physical parameter received by the processor not being within guidelines. - View Dependent Claims (6, 7)

8. Apparatus comprising:
-
at least one computer memory that is not a transitory signal and that comprises instructions executable by at least one processor for; presenting a first user interface (UI) on a display enabling a person to log in to a health monitoring feature with a user name and password and/or to create a new account, such that the apparatus maintains health records by user name, so that it may monitor plural people; presenting a second UI on the display listing multiple parameters from which a person may select one or more to monitor by means of an input device; presenting a third UI on the display responsive to a selection of a parameter from the second UI allowing entry of numbers associated with a measurement of the parameter; recording at least a time of receipt of the numbers; presenting a fourth UI on the display presenting a history of measurements of the parameter associated with the person; wherein the fourth UI presents upper and/or lower limit lines established per standard of care guidance as to what upper and/or lower “
safe”
limits of the parameter being displayed are, and the processor presents a fifth UI on the display responsive to the numbers associated with a measurement of the parameter being within guidelines, the fifth UI being presented automatically on the display after a predetermined period of time during which the fourth UI appears on the display. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14)
