DEVICES, SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR CONTEXTUALIZED RECORDING OF BIOMETRIC MEASUREMENTS

摘要

Described are apparatuses (e.g., devices, systems, software), and methods for monitoring the cardiac health of a patient which incorporates secondary information. The apparatus may be a heart rate monitor, a blood pressure monitor, an ECG or other biometric device in communication with an electronic device having communication ability. The devices detect a cardiac or other biometric measurement and correlate the detected information with secondary information, such as GPS data, to produce a contexualized measurement.

主权项

1. An apparatus adapted to correlate a blood pressure measurement with GPS data comprising:
a cuff for wrapping around a limb of a subject the cuff further having an inflatable bladder formed integrally therein, wherein the cuff is substantially rectangular in shape having a first surface, a second surface, a first end, a second end, and two sides, and a securement mechanism; one or more tubes positioned within the cuff in communication with the inflatable bladder; an exhaust valve; a housing connected to one of a first end and a second end of the cuff wherein the housing includes one or more of a controller, a memory, a pump, a power supply, and a motor; a GPS sensor in communication with the apparatus; and a transmitter for wirelessly transmitting blood pressure data to a second device.
