SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR OBTAINING BODILY FUNCTION MEASUREMENTS USING A MOBILE DEVICE

摘要

Methods, systems, computer-readable media, and apparatuses for obtaining at least one bodily function measurement are presented. A mobile device includes an outer body sized to be portable for user, a processor contained within the outer body, and a plurality of sensors physically coupled to the outer body. The sensors are configured to obtain a first measurement indicative of blood volume and a second measurement indicative of heart electrical activity in response to a user action. A blood pressure measurement is determined based on the first measurement and the second measurement. The sensors also include electrodes where a portion of a user's body positioned between the electrodes completes a circuit and a measurement to provide at least one measure of impedance associated with the user's body. A hydration level measurement is determined based on the measure of impedance.

1. A mobile device for obtaining at least one bodily function measurement, comprising:
an outer body sized to be portable for a user; a processor contained within the outer body; a plurality of sensors physically coupled to the outer body for obtaining data accessible by the processor; wherein one or more of the sensors is configured to obtain a first measurement indicative of blood volume in response to a user action, wherein at least one of the sensors configured to obtain the first measurement is contained within a contact button coupled to the outer body; wherein one or more of the sensors is configured to obtain a second measurement indicative of heart electrical activity in response to the user action; and wherein the processor is configured to facilitate generation of a blood pressure measurement based on the first measurement and the second measurement.
