 図4は、生体情報測定装置1の測定動作を説明する図である。尚、生体情報測定装置2の測定動作は、生体情報測定装置1の測定動作と同様でよいため、その説明は省略する。図4において、発光部20及び受光部30は、筐体211内に設けられた基板212上に設けられている。発光部20が発光する光は、筐体211に設けられたセンシング窓213を介して放出される。受光部30は、センシング窓213を介して光を受光する。 FIG. 4 is a diagram for explaining the measurement operation of the biological information measurement device 1.

The light emitted by the light emitting unit 20 is emitted through the sensing window 213 provided in the housing 211. The light receiving unit 30 receives light through the sensing window 213.

 測定時には、生体情報測定装置1のセンシング窓213にユーザ5の指(人体)が接触する。この接触状態で、発光部20が外部へと光を放出すると、図4に矢印R1で模式的に示すように、光の一部は人体を通って受光部30側に向かう。人体を通った光の一部は、受光部30に入射する。受光部30は、受光結果に応じた電気信号(受光信号)を生成する。受光部30が出力する受光信号は、CPU138に供給され、CPU138で処理される。 At the time of measurement, the finger (human body) of the user 5 contacts the sensing window 213 of the biological information measurement device 1.

 生体情報測定装置1のCPU138は、受光量の変化に基づいて、生体情報として、第1測定値の一例である、脈波及びヘモグロビンに関連する測定値を周知の方法で生成する。受光量の変化は、血管の容積変化に応じて生じるため、脈波情報(容積脈波)を得ることができる。また、受光量の変化は、血流内のヘモグロビンの濃度変化に応じて生じるため、ヘモグロビンに関連する測定値を得ることができる。本実施例では、一例として、生体情報測定装置1のCPU138は、脈波の測定値と、ヘモグロビンに関連する測定値の一例であるΔHbの測定値を生成する第1測定値生成部の一例を形成する。本実施例では、一例として、ΔHbは、オキシヘモグロビンの濃度と、デオキシヘモグロビンの濃度と、それらの合計値の3種類の値を有する。 The CPU 138 of the biological information measuring device 1 generates, as biological information, measurement values related to a pulse wave and hemoglobin, which are an example of the first measurement value, according to a known method, as biological information. Since changes in the amount of received light occur in response to changes in blood vessel volume, pulse wave information (volume pulse wave) can be obtained. In addition, since changes in the amount of received light occur in response to changes in the concentration of hemoglobin in the bloodstream, measurement values related to hemoglobin can be obtained. In the present embodiment, as an example, the CPU 138 of the biological information measuring device 1 generates an example of a first measurement value generation unit that generates a measurement value of pulse wave and a measurement value of ΔHb which is an example of a measurement value related to hemoglobin.

 生体情報測定装置1のCPU138は、ユーザの指先での脈波とΔHbの各測定値を生成すると、指先での脈波とΔHbの各測定値を情報機器200に供給する。尚、変形例では、指先での脈波とΔHbの各測定値の生成を、情報機器200により実現してもよい。この場合、指先での脈波とΔHbの各測定値に代えて、生体情報測定装置1の受光部30における受光結果が生体情報測定装置1から情報機器200に供給できる。 The CPU 138 of the living body information measuring device 1 supplies each measurement value of the pulse wave and ΔHb at the fingertip to the information device 200 when generating each measurement value of the pulse wave and ΔHb at the user's fingertip. In the modification, the information device 200 may realize the generation of each measurement value of the pulse wave and ΔHb at the fingertip. In this case, the light reception result in the light receiving unit 30 of the biological information measuring device 1 can be supplied from the biological information measuring device 1 to the information device 200 in place of the pulse wave at the fingertip and each measurement value of ΔHb.

 生体情報測定装置2の測定動作は、上記生体情報測定装置1の測定動作と実質的に同一である。生体情報測定装置2の場合、測定時には、センシング窓にユーザの額(人体)が接触する。生体情報測定装置2のCPU138は、ユーザの額での脈波とΔHbの各測定値を生成すると、額での脈波とΔHbの各測定値を情報機器200に供給する第2測定値生成部の一例を形成する。尚、変形例では、額での脈波とΔHbの各測定値の生成を、情報機器200により実現してもよい。この場合、額での脈波とΔHbの各測定値に代えて、生体情報測定装置2の受光部30における受光結果が生体情報測定装置2から情報機器200に供給できる。 The measurement operation of the biological information measurement device 2 is substantially the same as the measurement operation of the biological information measurement device 1 described above. In the case of the biological information measuring device 2, the user's forehead (human body) contacts the sensing window at the time of measurement. The CPU 138 of the biological information measurement device 2 generates a second measurement value generation unit that supplies each measurement value of the pulse wave and ΔHb to the information device 200 when the pulse wave and ΔHb measurement values of the user's forehead are generated. Form an example. In the modification, the information device 200 may realize the generation of the pulse wave and the measurement value of ΔHb on the forehead. In this case, the light reception result in the light receiving unit 30 of the biological information measurement device 2 can be supplied from the biological information measurement device 2 to the information device 200 instead of the pulse wave on the forehead and the measurement values of ΔHb.

 以下では、区別のため、生体情報測定装置1が生成する脈波及びΔHbの各測定値を、「末梢部の脈波及びΔHb」とも称し、生体情報測定装置2が生成する脈波及びΔHbの各測定値を、「頭部の脈波及びΔHb」とも称する。 Hereinafter, for the purpose of distinction, each measurement value of pulse wave and ΔHb generated by the biological information measurement device 1 is also referred to as “pulse wave and ΔHb of peripheral part”, and pulse wave and ΔHb generated by the biological information measurement device 2 Each measured value is also referred to as "head pulse wave and ΔHb".

 処理装置70は、第1指標値生成部701と、第2指標値生成部702と、支援情報出力部703とを含む。第1指標値生成部701、第2指標値生成部702、及び支援情報出力部703の機能は、CPU71が例えばROM73、補助記憶装置74等のような記憶部内の1つ以上のプログラムを実行することで実現できる。 The processing device 70 includes a first index value generation unit 701, a second index value generation unit 702, and a support information output unit 703. For the functions of the first index value generation unit 701, the second index value generation unit 702, and the support information output unit 703, the CPU 71 executes one or more programs in a storage unit such as the ROM 73 or the auxiliary storage device 74, for example. It can be realized by

 第1指標値生成部701は、末梢部の脈波に基づいて、ユーザの血液循環状態に関連する第1指標値(以下、「末梢部の第1指標値」とも称する)を生成すると共に、頭部の脈波に基づいて、ユーザの血液循環状態に関連する第1指標値(以下、「頭部の第1指標値」とも称する)を生成する。 The first index value generation unit 701 generates a first index value (hereinafter also referred to as “first index value of peripheral portion”) related to the user's blood circulation state based on the pulse wave of the peripheral portion, and A first index value (hereinafter also referred to as “first head index value”) related to the blood circulation state of the user is generated based on the pulse wave of the head.

 第1指標値は、例えば血液循環の良好度合いを表す指標値である。第1指標値は、脈波から導出できる脈拍数、脈拍振幅、及び脈間隔のうちのいずれか1つ、2つの組み合わせ、又は全ての組み合わせから算出してもよい。本実施例では、一例として、第1指標値は、脈拍数が0よりも有意に高いか否か、及び、所定閾値Th1を超えるか否かの3段階("無"、"弱"、及び"有")を表す。具体的には、第1指標値は、脈拍数が略0であるとき、"無"を表す値であり、脈拍数が0よりも有意に高いが所定閾値Th1よりも低い場合は、"弱"を表す値であり、脈拍数が所定閾値Th1よりも高い場合は、"有"を表す値である。 The first index value is, for example, an index value representing a good degree of blood circulation. The first index value may be calculated from any one, a combination of two, or all combinations of the pulse rate that can be derived from the pulse wave, the pulse amplitude, and the pulse interval. In the present embodiment, as an example, the first index value has three levels (“absent”, “weak”, and “not” whether the pulse rate is significantly higher than 0 and whether it exceeds a predetermined threshold Th1. Indicates "Yes"). Specifically, the first index value is a value representing "absent" when the pulse rate is approximately 0, and "weak" when the pulse rate is significantly higher than 0 but lower than a predetermined threshold Th1. It is a value representing ", and it is a value representing" presence "when the pulse rate is higher than a predetermined threshold Th1.

 第2指標値生成部702は、末梢部のΔHbに基づいて、オキシヘモグロビンとデオキシヘモグロビンとの間のバランス(以下、「血液酸素バランス」とも称する)に関連する第2指標値(以下、「末梢部の第2指標値」とも称する)を生成すると共に、頭部のΔHbに基づいて、血液酸素バランスに関連する第2指標値(以下、「頭部の第2指標値」とも称する)を生成する。 The second index value generation unit 702 is configured to calculate a second index value (hereinafter referred to as “periphery” hereinafter) related to a balance between oxyhemoglobin and deoxyhemoglobin (hereinafter also referred to as “blood oxygen balance”) based on ΔHb of the peripheral part. And a second index value related to blood oxygen balance (hereinafter also referred to as “second head index value”) based on ΔHb of the head). Do.

 第2指標値は、例えばオキシヘモグロビンの濃度の、デオキシヘモグロビンの濃度に対する有意度を表す指標値である。本実施例では、一例として、第2指標値は、オキシヘモグロビンの濃度(又はデオキシヘモグロビンの濃度との合計値)が0よりも有意に高いか否か、及び、オキシヘモグロビンの濃度からデオキシヘモグロビンの濃度を引いた差分(以下、「オキシ-デオキシ差分」と称する)が所定閾値Th2を超えるか否かの3段階("無"、"弱"、及び"有")を表す。具体的には、第2指標値は、オキシヘモグロビンの濃度が略0であるとき、"無"を表す値であり、オキシヘモグロビンの濃度が0よりも有意に大きいオキシ-デオキシ差分が所定閾値Th2よりも小さい場合は、"弱"を表す値であり、オキシ-デオキシ差分が所定閾値Th2よりも大きい場合は、"有"を表す値である。 The second index value is, for example, an index value representing the significance of the concentration of oxyhemoglobin to the concentration of deoxyhemoglobin. In this embodiment, as an example, the second index value indicates whether the concentration of oxyhemoglobin (or the sum of the concentration with deoxyhemoglobin) is significantly higher than 0, and from the concentration of oxyhemoglobin, deoxyhemoglobin The difference obtained by subtracting the concentration (hereinafter referred to as "oxy-deoxy difference") represents three stages ("none", "weak", and "presence") whether or not a predetermined threshold Th2 is exceeded. Specifically, the second index value is a value representing "absent" when the concentration of oxyhemoglobin is approximately 0, and the oxy-deoxy difference at a concentration of oxyhemoglobin significantly greater than 0 is a predetermined threshold value Th2 If smaller than the threshold value, it is a value representing "weak", and if the oxy-deoxy difference is larger than a predetermined threshold Th2, it is a value representing "presence".

 支援情報出力部703は、末梢部の脈波及びΔHb、及び、頭部の脈波及びΔHbを表示装置8に出力する。表示装置8の表示例については後述する。 The support information output unit 703 outputs the pulse wave and ΔHb of the peripheral portion and the pulse wave and ΔHb of the head to the display device 8. A display example of the display device 8 will be described later.

 支援情報出力部703は、好ましくは、ユーザの部位(末梢部及び頭部の各部位)ごとの第1指標値と部位ごとの第2指標値とに基づいて、ユーザに対する治療に係る支援情報を出力する。支援情報の出力例については後述する。 The support information output unit 703 preferably provides support information relating to the treatment for the user based on the first index value for each part of the user (peripheral part and each part of the head) and the second index value for each part. Output. An output example of the support information will be described later.

 図7は、支援情報の生成方法の一例を説明する図である。図7は、推定するカテゴリごとに、ユーザの末梢部及び頭部の各部位の第1指標値と第2指標値との関係を示す。 FIG. 7 is a diagram for explaining an example of a method of generating support information. FIG. 7 shows, for each category to be estimated, the relationship between the first index value and the second index value of each part of the peripheral part and head of the user.

 図7では、例えば、血液循環状態として末梢部の第1指標値及び頭部の第1指標値がともに"無"であり、かつ、血液酸素バランスとして末梢部の第2指標値及び頭部の第2指標値がともに"無"であるとき、支援情報出力部703は、現在のユーザの状態を"カテゴリ0"と推定する。この場合、支援情報出力部703は、例えば支援情報として、無呼吸群(生命徴候無)の可能性が高いことを表す黒のマークを表示装置8に出力する。 In FIG. 7, for example, the first index value of the peripheral part and the first index value of the head are both "absent" as the blood circulation state, and the second index value of the peripheral part and the head of the blood oxygen balance When the second index values are both "absent", the support information output unit 703 estimates the current state of the user as "category 0". In this case, the support information output unit 703 outputs a black mark indicating that the possibility of the apnea group (without vital signs) is high as the support information to the display device 8, for example.

 また、血液循環状態として末梢部の第1指標値及び頭部の第1指標値がともに"弱"であり、かつ、血液酸素バランスとして末梢部の第2指標値が"弱"であり頭部の第2指標値が"無"であるとき、支援情報出力部703は、現在のユーザの状態を"カテゴリI"と推定する。この場合、支援情報出力部703は、例えば支援情報として、最優先治療群(生命に関わる重篤な状態)の可能性が高いことを表す赤のマークを表示装置8に出力する。 In addition, the first index value in the peripheral area and the first index value in the head are both "weak" as the blood circulation state, and the second index value in the peripheral area is "weak" as the blood oxygen balance, and the head is When the second index value of is “none”, the support information output unit 703 estimates the current state of the user as “category I”. In this case, the support information output unit 703 outputs, for example, a red mark indicating that the possibility of the highest priority treatment group (serious life-threatening condition) is high as the support information to the display device 8.

 また、血液循環状態として末梢部の第1指標値が"有"であり頭部の第1指標値が"弱"であり、かつ、血液酸素バランスとして末梢部の第2指標値が"有"であり頭部の第2指標値が"弱"であるとき、支援情報出力部703は、現在のユーザの状態を"カテゴリII"と推定する。この場合、支援情報出力部703は、例えば支援情報として、待機的治療群(早期に処置をすべき状態)の可能性が高いことを表す黄のマークを表示装置8に出力する。 In addition, the first index value of the peripheral part is "present", the first index value of the head is "weak" as the blood circulation state, and the second index value of the peripheral part is "present" as the blood oxygen balance. If the second index value of the head is "weak", the support information output unit 703 estimates the current state of the user as "category II". In this case, the support information output unit 703 outputs, to the display device 8, a yellow mark indicating that the possibility of the standby treatment group (the state to be treated early) is high, for example, as the support information.

 また、血液循環状態として末梢部の第1指標値及び頭部の第1指標値がともに"有"であり、かつ、血液酸素バランスとして末梢部の第2指標値及び頭部の第2指標値がともに"有"であるとき、支援情報出力部703は、現在のユーザの状態を"カテゴリIII"と推定する。この場合、支援情報出力部703は、例えば支援情報として、保留群(直ちに処置や搬送の必要がない状態)の可能性が高いことを表す緑のマークを表示装置8に出力する。 In addition, both the first index value of the peripheral part and the first index value of the head are "valid" as the blood circulation state, and the second index value of the peripheral part and the second index value of the head as blood oxygen balance When both are “present”, the support information output unit 703 estimates the current state of the user as “category III”. In this case, the support information output unit 703 outputs, to the display device 8 as a support information, for example, a green mark indicating that the possibility of the holding group (the state where there is no need for treatment or transport immediately) is high.

 尚、図7では、マークの各色は、トリアージの各色に対応している。これにより、医療従事者にとって分かり易い支援情報を出力できる。但し、変形例では、支援情報として、マークの色に代えて又は加えて、推定するカテゴリを出力してもよいし、表示以外の音声等を出力してもよい。 In FIG. 7, each color of the mark corresponds to each color of the triage. This makes it possible to output support information that is easy for medical staff to understand. However, in the modification, a category to be estimated may be output as the support information instead of or in addition to the color of the mark, or voice or the like other than display may be output.

 図10に示す処理によれば、ユーザの手の指に取り付けられた生体情報測定装置1と、ユーザの額に取り付けられた生体情報測定装置2とから、脈波及びΔHbの各測定値を同時に得ることができる。これにより、ユーザの血液循環状態及び血液酸素バランスを、額と手の指の双方の個所で総合的に評価できる。この結果、各カテゴリの推定精度(即ち、実際の医師が判断するカテゴリとの整合性)が向上し、支援情報の有用性を高めることができる。 According to the process shown in FIG. 10, each measurement value of pulse wave and ΔHb is simultaneously measured from the biological information measuring device 1 attached to the finger of the user's hand and the biological information measuring device 2 attached to the user's forehead You can get it. Thereby, the user's blood circulation state and blood oxygen balance can be comprehensively evaluated at both the forehead and the finger of the hand. As a result, the estimation accuracy of each category (that is, the consistency with the category determined by the actual doctor) can be improved, and the usefulness of the support information can be enhanced.

 ところで、近年、病気、事故、救命救急現場で心肺蘇生法(CPR:Cardio Pulmonary Resuscitation)や自動体外式除細動器(AED:Automated External Defibrillator)により蘇生処置を行うことがある。蘇生処置は、例えば日本蘇生協議会 (JRC:Japan Resuscitation Council)の蘇生ガイドラインで定められているが、蘇生処置方法を定量的に簡単に計測することが求められている。CPR時には、抹消血流循環と頭部への酸素循環を計測することが求められている。 By the way, in recent years, resuscitation treatment may be performed by a cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR: Cardio Pulmonary Resuscitation) or an automatic external defibrillator (AED: Automated External Defibrillator) at an illness, an accident, a critical care site. Although resuscitation treatment is defined, for example, in the resuscitation guidelines of the Japan Resuscitation Council (JRC: Japan Resuscitation Council), it is required that the resuscitation treatment method be measured quantitatively and simply. During CPR, it is required to measure peripheral blood circulation and oxygen circulation to the head.

 この点、本実施例によれば、生体情報測定装置1及び生体情報測定装置2における光センサ方式は反射型であり、生体情報測定装置1及び生体情報測定装置2がユーザの各部位(例えば、手の指及び額)に取り付けるだけでよく、救命の現場で簡単に使用できる生体情報測定システム100を実現できる。即ち、簡単に装着し、抹消血流循環と頭部への酸素循環が計測できるため、救命救急時には手の指及び頭部(例えば、額)へ装着し、短時間で手の指及び頭部への酸素循環が確認できる。 In this respect, according to the present embodiment, the optical sensor system in the biological information measuring device 1 and the biological information measuring device 2 is a reflection type, and the biological information measuring device 1 and the biological information measuring device 2 are each part of the user (for example, It is only necessary to attach it to the finger and forehead of the hand, and it is possible to realize the biological information measurement system 100 that can be easily used at the lifesaving site. That is, since it can be easily worn and the peripheral blood flow circulation and oxygen circulation to the head can be measured, it is worn on the finger and head (for example, forehead) of the hand at the time of critical care and the finger and head of the hand in a short time The oxygen circulation to can be confirmed.

 特に救命救急時には頭部(例えば、額)での酸素状態の把握が望ましいが、本実施例によれば、脳に酸素が循環しない状態か否かを判断するための有意な生体情報(例えば、頭部の脈波及びΔHb)を出力できる。例えば、上述したカテゴリIは、頭部での血液酸素バランスが良好でない状態であり、このような状態を精度良く検出でき、救命救急に有用な支援情報を出力できる。 It is desirable to grasp the state of oxygen at the head (for example, forehead) especially at the time of critical care, but according to this embodiment, significant biological information (for example, for determining whether oxygen does not circulate in the brain) The pulse wave of the head and ΔHb) can be output. For example, the above-described category I is a state in which the blood oxygen balance in the head is not good, such a state can be accurately detected, and support information useful for critical care can be output.

 また、本実施例によれば、医師等は、患者の手の指及び額のそれぞれでの血液循環状態及び血液酸素バランスを見ながら、速やかに、かつ、正しい蘇生を行うことが容易となる。即ち、CPR中の血流循環回復と、頭部への酸素循環状態を把握しながら、患者の蘇生を行うことが容易となる。例えば、頭部(具体的には、脳)へ酸素循環が無い状態で蘇生をすると患者が植物状態に陥る場合があるが、本実施例によれば、患者がこのような植物状態に陥りやすい状況の発生を低減できる。 Moreover, according to the present embodiment, it becomes easy for the doctor etc. to perform resuscitation promptly and correctly while observing the blood circulation state and blood oxygen balance in each of the finger and forehead of the patient. That is, it becomes easy to perform resuscitation of the patient while grasping the blood flow circulation recovery during CPR and the oxygen circulation state to the head. For example, if resuscitation is performed without oxygen circulation to the head (specifically, the brain), the patient may fall into the vegetative state, but according to the present embodiment, the patient tends to fall into such a vegetative state It can reduce the occurrence of situations.

 また、本実施例によれば、計測データは無線通信で送受できるため、救済時に有線の煩わしさを無くすことが可能である。但し、変形例では、有線で計測データを送受してもよい。また、子供から高齢者まで計測可能であり、救命以外にスポーツ選手の体調管理や未病の被験者の体調管理等にも使用できる。 Moreover, according to the present embodiment, since measurement data can be transmitted and received by wireless communication, it is possible to eliminate the troublesomeness of wired communication at the time of relief. However, in the modification, measurement data may be transmitted and received by wire. In addition, it can be measured from children to elderly people, and it can be used for physical condition management of athletes and physical condition management of undiseased subjects in addition to lifesaving.

 以上、各実施例について詳述したが、特定の実施例に限定されるものではなく、特許請求の範囲に記載された範囲内において、種々の変形、変更及び置換が可能である。また、前述した実施例の構成要素の少なくとも一部を組み合わせることも可能である。 As mentioned above, although each Example was explained in full detail, it is not limited to a specific example, A various deformation | transformation, change, and substitution are possible within the limits described in the claim. Moreover, it is also possible to combine at least one part of the component of the Example mentioned above.

 例えば、上述した実施例では、生体情報測定装置1及び生体情報測定装置2における光センサ方式は反射型であるが、透過型を使用してもよい。反射型の光センサを使用する場合、発光部が被験者の部位に光を当て、受光部が部位からの反射光を受光し、受光量の変化に基づいて、脈波及びヘモグロビンに関連する測定値を生成する。一方、透過型の光センサ方式を使用する場合、発光部が被験者の部位に光を当て、受光部が被験者の部位からの透過光を受光し、受光量の変化に基づいて、脈波及びヘモグロビンに関連する測定値を生成する。透過型のセンサ方式自体は周知であり、受光量の変化に基づいて脈波及びヘモグロビンに関連する測定値を生成する方法自体は上述の如く周知であるため、これらの詳細な説明は省略する。 For example, in the embodiment described above, the optical sensor system in the biological information measurement device 1 and the biological information measurement device 2 is a reflection type, but a transmission type may be used. When a reflection type light sensor is used, the light emitting unit applies light to the site of the subject, the light receiving unit receives the reflected light from the site, and the measurement value related to the pulse wave and hemoglobin based on the change in the amount of light received. Generate On the other hand, when using a transmission-type optical sensor system, the light emitting unit applies light to the site of the subject, the light receiving section receives transmitted light from the site of the subject, and pulse wave and hemoglobin based on the change in the amount of light received. Generate measurements related to The transmission type sensor system itself is known, and the method of generating the measurement values related to the pulse wave and the hemoglobin based on the change in the light reception amount is known as described above, and thus the detailed description thereof is omitted.
