Abstract

A blood glucose measurement device comprises a sensor connector, a blood glucose value calculator, a barcode reader, a liquid crystal display, a data storage component, a report storage area, a central controller, and a touch sensor. The central controller causes the liquid crystal display to activate an input screen for inputting a comment for each measurement by the blood glucose value calculator. When a comment is inputted to the touch sensor, the central controller associates the comment with identification information in correspondence with each measurement by the blood glucose value calculator and stores the result in the report storage area. When a patient ID is read by the barcode reader, the central controller checks whether there is a comment on the basis of the information stored in the report storage area, and if there is a comment, the comment is displayed on the liquid crystal display.

Claims (15)

1. A biological information measurement device, comprising:

a sensor mounting portion to which is mounted a sensor for measuring biological information about a subject;

a measurement component configured to measure biological information of the subject by using the sensor mounted to the sensor mounting portion;

an identification information reader configured to read identification information about the subject;

a display component configured to display the identification information read by the identification information reader and measurement results measured by the measurement component;

a storage component configured to store the identification information and the measurement results, which are associated with each other;

a controller that is connected to the sensor mounting portion, the measurement component, the identification information reader, the display component, and the storage component; and

a report item input component to which are inputted report items that are to be transmitted from a first measurer who conducted measurement of the biological information to a second measurer who will conduct the next measurement on the same subject,

wherein the controller:

activates an input screen for inputting the report items on the display component for each measurement at the measuring component,

when the report items are inputted at the report item input component, stores the report items and the identification information associated each other in correspondence with each measurement at the measuring component in the storage component, and

when the identification information about the subject is read by the identification information reader, confirms whether or not there are report items on the basis of the information stored in the storage component, and if there are report items, displays them on the display component,

wherein the controller causes the display component to display a selection screen that allows the user to select a comment related to the subject or measurement from among a plurality of choices prepared beforehand,

wherein the controller causes the display component to display a selection screen that allows the user to select whether or not a comment selected by the user on the selection screen shall be in the report items, and

wherein, for a comment that has already been selected as a report comment during the previous measurement, the controller causes the display component to display the selection screen that allows the user to select whether or not that comment will be in the report items, regardless of whether or not any comments have been selected during the current measurement.
