<p>A device for supporting medical diagnosis of pocket size or wearable on the body comprises a microprocessor (3) programmed for performing a first function of collecting data regarding symptoms of a patient, a user interface (5, 6, 7, 9) connected to the microprocessor (3) for bringing instructions regarding data to be collected into human perceptible form, and a control means (15, 16; 50, 51; 56-58) for inputting the data. The device is also adapted for performing a second, day-to-day function. In operating condition, the first function is permanently and directly activable in response to an operation by the user. By incorporating a device for supporting medical diagnosis in a pocket size or wearable device fulfilling another day-to-day need, the likelihood that the support is directly available in the event of an incident is increased substantially.</p> |
