ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND METHOD OF MEASURING OXYGEN SATURATION BASED ON USER CONTEXT IN THE ELECTRONIC DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17712689 titled 'ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND METHOD OF MEASURING OXYGEN SATURATION BASED ON USER CONTEXT IN THE ELECTRONIC DEVICE
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes an electronic device that can measure oxygen saturation and display the results. Here are the key points:
- The device includes a communication module, a display, a memory, a biosensor, and at least one processor.
- The processor can obtain electronic medical record (EMR) data from an external server.
- Based on the EMR data, the processor can identify oxygen saturation-related medical records.
- When an event occurs, the processor determines a specified oxygen saturation measurement period and a specified reference oxygen saturation range based on the medical records.
- The biosensor is used to measure oxygen saturation during the specified measurement period.
- The processor then checks if the measured oxygen saturation falls within the specified reference range.
- The results, along with information indicating whether the measurement is within the range, are displayed on the device's display.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Monitoring oxygen saturation levels in patients with respiratory conditions.
- Tracking oxygen saturation during physical activities or workouts.
- Assessing oxygen saturation in high-altitude environments or during air travel.
Problems solved by this technology:
- Provides a convenient and portable way to measure and monitor oxygen saturation levels.
- Allows for quick identification of abnormal oxygen saturation levels.
- Enables easy access to historical oxygen saturation data through EMR integration.
Benefits of this technology:
- Enables early detection of oxygen saturation abnormalities, potentially leading to timely medical intervention.
- Provides a user-friendly interface for individuals to monitor their own oxygen saturation levels.
- Facilitates seamless integration with existing electronic medical record systems.
Original Abstract Submitted
An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a communication module, a display, a memory, a biosensor configured to measure oxygen saturation, and at least one processor. The at least one processor may be configured to obtain electronic medical record (EMR) data from an external server through the communication module, identify oxygen saturation-related medical records based on the EMR data, based on occurrence of an event, determine a specified oxygen saturation measurement period and a specified reference oxygen saturation range based on the oxygen saturation-related medical records, measure oxygen saturation based on the specified oxygen saturation measurement period by using the biosensor, identify whether the measured oxygen saturation satisfies the specified reference oxygen saturation range, and display the measured oxygen saturation and information indicating whether the measured oxygen saturation satisfies the specified reference oxygen saturation range on the display.
