Abstract
A bio-signal detection device and a method of managing the health of a user is used with a health management system. The device includes a main body having palm support portions formed on the top of both sides thereof, a sensing unit formed on at least one of the palm support portions to detect a bio-signal of a user and including electrodes, and an operation unit receiving a signal from the sensing unit to operate. The method includes maintaining a first and second database including inquiry information and information on the normal physical condition of a user; comparing a measured present physical condition with the normal physical condition and detecting a changed item associated with the physical condition of the user; outputting lifestyle inquiry information associated with the detected changed item; receiving a reply to the outputted lifestyle inquiry information; analyzing a health condition of the user; and reporting health condition information.

28. A method of managing the health of a user in a health management system, comprising:
-
maintaining a first database including inquiry information and a second database including information on a normal physical condition of a user;
measuring a present physical condition of the user;
comparing the measured present physical condition with the normal physical condition information using the second database and detecting a changed item associated with the present physical condition of the user;
outputting lifestyle inquiry information associated with the detected changed item of the inquiry information using the first database;
receiving information from a reply to the outputted lifestyle inquiry information from the user;
analyzing a health condition of the user based on the measured present physical condition and the inputted inquiry reply information; and
reporting health condition information of the user according to the result of the analysis. - View Dependent Claims (29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43)
