System method and device for determining the risk of dehydration
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- receiving heart rate data associated with a heart rate of a person from a first sensor configured to be worn externally on a body of the person;
receiving posture data associated with a posture of the person from a second sensor;
determining, via a processor, that a first posture of the person satisfies a first posture criteria for a first predetermined time period;
determining, via the processor, a first heart rate for the person based on the heart rate data, the first heart rate associated with the first predetermined time period;
determining, via the processor, that the posture of the person transitions from the first posture to a second posture within a second time period after the first predetermined time period;
if the length of the second time period is within a predetermined time period;
determining, via the processor, that the second posture of the person satisfies a second posture criteria for a third time period, the third time period being after the second time period;
determining, via the processor, a second heart rate for the person based on the heart rate data, the second heart rate associated with the third time period;
determining, via the processor, a change in heart rate based on a difference between the second heart rate and the first heart rate; and
determining, via the processor, a probability of dehydration based, at least in part, on the change in heart rate.

Abstract
A system, device and method of determining the probability of dehydration of a person is provided. In one embodiment, the method comprises receiving data of a heart rate of the person; receiving data of a posture of the person; determining that a first posture of the person satisfies first posture criteria for a first predetermined time period; determining a first heart rate for the person during the first predetermined time period; subsequent to determining that the first posture of the person satisfies first posture criteria for a first predetermined time period, determining that a second posture of the person satisfies second posture criteria for at least a second predetermined period; determining a second heart rate for the person during the second predetermined time period; determining a change in heart rate as the second heart rate minus the first average heart rate; determining a first probability of dehydration based, at least in part, on the change in heart rate; and outputting the first probability of dehydration.

8. A computer program stored in a non-transitory computer readable medium and executable by a computer system, the computer program comprising code to cause the computer system to:
-
determine that a first posture of a person satisfies a first posture criteria during a first predetermined time period; determine a first heart rate of the person associated with the first predetermined time period; determine that the posture of the person transitions from the first posture to a second posture within a second time period after the first predetermined time period; if the length of the second time period is within a predetermined time period, the computer program further comprising code to cause the computer system to; determine that the second posture of the person satisfies a second posture criteria for a third time period, the third time period being after the second time period; determine a second heart rate of the person associated with the third time period; determine an activity level of the person associated with the third time period; determine a change in heart rate, the change in heart rate being a difference between the second heart rate and the first heart rate; determine a probability of dehydration based, at least in part, on the change in heart rate; and output an alert configured to alert the person of the probability of dehydration when the probability of dehydration exceeds a dehydration risk threshold and when the activity level of the person associated with the third time period is below an activity threshold. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12)

13. A method, comprising:
-
receiving, from a first sensor, an indication of a first posture of a person during a first predetermined time period; determining, via a processor, a first heart rate of the person, the first heart rate being associated with the first predetermined time period and based on heart rate data received from a second sensor configured to be worn externally on a body of the person; receiving, from the first sensor, an indication of a transition of the person from the first posture to a second posture during a second time period, the second time period being after the first predetermined time period; if the length of the second time period is within a predetermined time period; determining, via the processor, that the second posture of the person satisfies a second posture criteria for a third time period, the third time period being after the second time period; determining, via the processor, a second heart rate of the person associated with the third time period, the second heart rate determined based on heart rate data received from the second sensor; determining, via the processor, a probability of dehydration based, at least in part, on the first heart rate and the second heart rate. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19)
