REMOTELY TAKING REAL-TIME PROGRAMMATIC ACTIONS RESPONSIVE TO HEALTH METRICS RECEIVED FROM WORN HEALTH MONITORING DEVICES
First Claim
1. A method for utilizing health metrics comprising:
- receiving health metrics from at least one person wearing a health monitoring device in an unencumbered fashion that permits free motion, wherein the health monitoring device wirelessly conveys the heath metrics to a remotely located computing device;
comparing the received health metrics against at least one configurable, yet previously established threshold;
inferring a change in a situation proximate to the at least one person based upon comparison results;
firing a programmatic event based upon the inferred change; and
initiating at least one programmatic action responsive to the firing of the programmatic event, wherein the programmatic action initiates a response to the inferred change.

Abstract
Health metrics can be received from at least one person wearing a health monitoring device in an unencumbered fashion that permits free motion. The health monitoring device can wirelessly convey the heath metrics to a remotely located computing device. The received health metrics can be compared against at least one configurable, yet previously established threshold. A change in a situation proximate to the person can be inferred based upon comparison results. A programmatic event can be fired based upon the inferred change. At least one programmatic action can be automatically initiated responsive to the firing of the programmatic event, wherein the programmatic action initiates a response to the inferred change.
