Vital information measurement device
An objective of the present invention is to provide a vital information measurement device which measures vital information using a biosensor, with which it is possible to adjudicate more precisely whether a mounted biosensor is usable, and to alleviate inconsistency in measured values therefrom. Specifically, the present invention provides a vital information measurement device comprising: an input terminal to which a biosensor is connected; a voltage application unit which applies a voltage to the input terminal; an adjudication unit which is connected to the input terminal; a control unit which is connected to the adjudication unit; and a display unit which is connected to the control unit. The control unit causes the adjudication unit to carry out a first adjudication, a second adjudication, and a third adjudication.
1. A vital information measurement device comprising:
an input terminal to which a biosensor is connected;
a display; and
a processor configured to:
apply voltage to the input terminal;
measure a measurement value based on a value of electric current flowing in the biosensor;
measure a first measurement value and a second measurement value based on a value of the electric current flowing in the biosensor when the voltage is applied to the biosensor through the input terminal before a biological sample is supplied to the biosensor, and the second measurement value is a value measured after the first measurement value is measured;
perform a first determination and a second determination to determine whether the biosensor is usable based on results of the first determination and the second determination and the display to display information indicating that the biosensor is usable or unusable for measurement before the biological sample is supplied to the biosensor;
compare the first measurement value with a first threshold value; and
compare the first measurement value or the second measurement value with a second threshold value, wherein the second threshold value is smaller than the first threshold value.
2. The vital information measurement device according to claim 1 , wherein the processor is further configured to:
when the first measurement value is smaller than the first threshold value in the first determination, and the second measurement value is smaller than the second threshold value in the second determination,
cause the display to display information indicating that the biosensor is ready for measurement.
3. The vital information measurement device according to claim 1 , wherein the processor is further configured to:
when the first measurement value is equal to or larger than the first threshold value in the first determination, cause the display to display information indicating that the biosensor is unusable on the display.
4. The vital information measurement device according to claim 1 ,
wherein the processor is further configured to:
when the first measurement value is smaller than the first threshold value in the first determination, and the first measurement value or the second measurement value is equal to or larger than the second threshold value in the second determination, perform a third determination.
