Description

本発明の実施形態は、瞬時心拍評価装置、方法およびプログラムに関する。   Embodiments of the present invention relate to an instantaneous heartbeat evaluation apparatus, method and program.

自律神経には、交感神経と迷走神経の2つがある。交感神経および迷走神経は各臓器などに広く分布し、循環や代謝をはじめとする不随意な身体機能を制御する。多くの場合、交感神経と迷走神経が1つの臓器を拮抗的に支配すると言われている。   There are two autonomic nerves, the sympathetic nerve and the vagus nerve. The sympathetic nerve and the vagus nerve are widely distributed in various organs, and control involuntary physical functions such as circulation and metabolism. In many cases, it is said that the sympathetic nerve and the vagus nerve antagonistically control one organ.

自律神経活動の1つである交感神経活動は、暗算負荷などのストレス刺激によって亢進することが知られている。   It is known that sympathetic nerve activity, which is one of autonomic nerve activity, is enhanced by stress stimulation such as mental arithmetic load.

一方、もう1つの自律神経活動である迷走神経活動は、当該迷走神経が各臓器において主に副交換性の神経活動を担うことから、副交感神経活動と同等に理解されることも多い。なお、迷走神経とは、厳密には脳神経の1つである第X神経の名称であり、脳から各臓器などに至る当該神経すべてを指す。このため、例えば心臓迷走神経のように、支配対象となっている臓器の名称を付記することで、対象臓器における副交感神経活動を示す場合がある。   On the other hand, vagal nerve activity, which is another autonomic nerve activity, is often understood to be equivalent to parasympathetic nerve activity, since the vagus nerve is mainly responsible for parasympathetic nerve activity in each organ. The vagus nerve is, strictly speaking, the name of the Xth nerve, which is one of the cranial nerves, and refers to all the nerves from the brain to each organ. Therefore, for example, by adding the name of the organ to be controlled, such as the cardiac vagus nerve, the parasympathetic nerve activity in the target organ may be indicated.

自律神経が支配する臓器の1つに心臓がある。心臓は交感神経および迷走神経によって拮抗的に支配されており、交感神経活動と迷走神経活動の静的なバランスを反映すると言われている(例えば非特許文献2参照)。   The heart is one of the organs controlled by the autonomic nerves. The heart is antagonistically dominated by the sympathetic nerve and the vagus nerve, and is said to reflect the static balance between the sympathetic nerve activity and the vagus nerve activity (for example, see Non-Patent Document 2).

図4は、瞬時心拍(RRI)の一例を示す図である。特に、図4に示すような、時系列で隣接する(以下、単に隣接すると称することがある)2つのR波の間隔である瞬時心拍(RRI:R-R interval)のゆらぎは交感神経活動と迷走神経活動の両方によって変化することが知られている。なお、R波とは、心電図計測によって得られる心電波形の1つであり、心臓の脱分極活動を反映している(例えば非特許文献3参照)。   FIG. 4 is a diagram showing an example of an instantaneous heartbeat (RRI). In particular, as shown in FIG. 4, fluctuations in an instantaneous heartbeat (RRI: RR interval), which is an interval between two R waves that are adjacent in time series (hereinafter sometimes simply referred to as “adjacent”), are caused by sympathetic nerve activity and vagus nerve. It is known to change with both activities. The R wave is one of the electrocardiographic waveforms obtained by electrocardiogram measurement, and reflects the depolarization activity of the heart (for example, see Non-Patent Document 3).

心電図は常に正常な状態で計測できるとは限らない。心電図で生じる異常は、(1)計測対象(被験者)の異常と(2)計測系(計測機器)の異常とに大別される。計測対象の異常は、被験者の不整脈をはじめとする病変状態などを指す。また、計測系の異常は、電極やリード線など計測に用いる機器において異常が生じている状態を指す。   An electrocardiogram cannot always be measured in a normal state. The abnormalities occurring in the electrocardiogram are roughly classified into (1) abnormalities in the measurement target (subject) and (2) abnormalities in the measurement system (measuring device). The abnormality of the measurement target refers to a lesion state such as arrhythmia of the subject. Further, the abnormality of the measurement system refers to a state where an abnormality occurs in a device used for measurement such as an electrode or a lead wire.

計測対象の異常の代表的なものとしては不整脈が挙げられる。不整脈は、(1)瞬時心拍の間隔が平常状態よりも短縮する頻脈と、(2)瞬時心拍の間隔が平常状態よりも延長する徐脈とに大別される。   Arrhythmia is a typical example of the abnormality to be measured. Arrhythmias are roughly classified into (1) tachycardia in which the interval of instantaneous heartbeats is shorter than in a normal state, and (2) bradycardia in which the interval of instantaneous heartbeats is longer than in a normal state.

心電図を計測する手段の1つとして、ホルター(Holter)心電計などのウェアラブルなデバイスがある。これらのデバイスを用いて取得する心電図は、電極の変形やズレをはじめとする電極異常、あるいは、体動、発汗、静電気など様々な要因によって計測異常が生じる(例えば非特許文献4参照)。図5は、心電図における計測異常の一例を示す図である。この計測異常は、心電図では図5に示すようなノイズ(W1)やアーチファクト(W2)(異常計測状態)という形で確認できる。   One of the means for measuring an electrocardiogram is a wearable device such as a Holter electrocardiograph. Electrocardiograms acquired by using these devices have abnormal measurement due to electrode abnormalities such as electrode deformation and displacement, or various factors such as body movement, sweating, and static electricity (for example, see Non-Patent Document 4). FIG. 5: is a figure which shows an example of the measurement abnormality in an electrocardiogram. This measurement abnormality can be confirmed in the form of noise (W1) or artifact (W2) (abnormal measurement state) as shown in FIG. 5 on the electrocardiogram.

計測異常のうち、アーチファクトとして観測される波形はR波と類似しており、1つ以上連続して観測される。このため、心電図を解析してR波を抽出するアルゴリズムが、アーチファクトをR波と誤判断して不必要に抽出してしまう場合がある(以降では、このような波形を計測異常R波と表記する)。計測異常R波は、その発生機序から心臓の脱分極活動を一切反映しない。このため、瞬時心拍を構成するR波のうち、少なくとも1つが計測異常R波である場合、当該瞬時心拍は誤りであると言える。   Among the measurement abnormalities, the waveform observed as an artifact is similar to the R wave, and one or more waveforms are continuously observed. Therefore, the algorithm that analyzes the electrocardiogram and extracts the R wave may erroneously determine the artifact as the R wave and unnecessarily extract it (hereinafter, such a waveform is referred to as a measurement abnormal R wave). To). The abnormal R wave of measurement does not reflect the depolarizing activity of the heart due to its generation mechanism. Therefore, if at least one of the R waves forming the instantaneous heartbeat is an abnormal measurement R wave, it can be said that the instantaneous heartbeat is erroneous.

心電図の異常を検出する代表的なシステムとして、心電図モニタ(従来手法)が挙げられる(例えば非特許文献1参照)。心電図モニタは、計測対象の徐脈・頻脈などの不整脈を検出することを目的として用いられており、一定時間内における瞬時心拍数が下限値または上限値を超えた場合、心電図の異常と判断してアラームなどを発報する。   An electrocardiogram monitor (conventional method) is a typical system for detecting an abnormality in the electrocardiogram (see Non-Patent Document 1, for example). The electrocardiogram monitor is used for the purpose of detecting arrhythmias such as bradycardia and tachycardia to be measured, and if the instantaneous heart rate exceeds a lower limit value or an upper limit value within a certain time, it is judged as an abnormal electrocardiogram. And alarms are issued.

上記の心電図モニタを用いた従来手法は、病院などの医療環境下や、あるいは医療機器を用いて心電図を計測することを前提としているため、計測系の異常は基本的に考慮されていない(計測系の異常については、医療従事者が手動で回避している)。従来手法をウェアラブルデバイスに実装しても、心電図モニタは、計測異常R波を含む瞬時心拍と、病理的に異常な瞬時心拍とを区別できないため、病理的に異常な瞬時心拍に対する適切なアラーム発報を行うことが難しい。   The above-mentioned conventional method using the electrocardiogram monitor is based on the premise that the electrocardiogram is measured in a medical environment such as a hospital or using a medical device, and therefore abnormality of the measurement system is not basically considered (measurement For system abnormalities, the medical staff manually avoids it). Even if the conventional method is implemented in a wearable device, the ECG monitor cannot distinguish the instantaneous heartbeat including the abnormal measurement R wave from the pathologically abnormal instantaneous heartbeat, and therefore an appropriate alarm is issued for the pathologically abnormal instantaneous heartbeat. Difficult to report.

例えば、心電図モニタは、計測異常R波が連続する場合の心電図を頻脈と誤判断してアラーム発報したり、電極が外れている場合を徐脈と誤判断してアラーム発報したりする恐れがある。   For example, the electrocardiogram monitor may erroneously determine an electrocardiogram as a tachycardia when an abnormal R wave is continuously measured and issue an alarm, or may erroneously determine a bradycardia as an electrode is detached and issue an alarm. There is a fear.

本発明は、上記の事情に鑑みてなされたものであり、その目的は、心電図の計測系の異常に起因する波形と起因しない波形とを区別し、計測系の異常判別を実現できる瞬時心拍評価装置、瞬時心拍評価方法およびプログラムを提供することである。   The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and an object thereof is to distinguish between a waveform caused by an abnormality in a measurement system of an electrocardiogram and a waveform not caused by an abnormality, and an instantaneous heartbeat evaluation capable of realizing abnormality determination of the measurement system. An apparatus, an instantaneous heartbeat evaluation method, and a program are provided.

(Constitution)
FIG. 1 is a diagram showing a configuration example of an instantaneous heartbeat evaluation apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention. The instantaneous heartbeat evaluation apparatus 10 shown in FIG. 1 includes an electrocardiogram measurement unit 11 and an instantaneous heartbeat evaluation unit 12. As an example, in the instantaneous heartbeat evaluation apparatus 10, the electrocardiogram measurement unit 11 is a wearable device that can be worn by a subject (user), and the instantaneous heartbeat evaluation unit 12 is a computer device such as a smartphone, a tablet terminal, or a personal computer (PC). It is realized by the system. For example, the computer device includes a processor such as a CPU (Central Processing Unit), a memory connected to the processor, and a communication interface for communicating (for example, wirelessly) with the electrocardiogram measurement unit 11. Note that the implementation form of the instantaneous heartbeat evaluation apparatus 10 is not limited to this example. For example, the instantaneous heartbeat evaluation apparatus 10 may be realized as one device. Further, the electrocardiogram measurement unit 11 may be provided outside the instantaneous heartbeat evaluation device 10. In other words, the instantaneous heartbeat evaluation device 10 may acquire the result of measuring the electrocardiogram of the subject from an external electrocardiographic measurement device corresponding to the electrocardiogram measurement unit 11.
The difference between the embodiment and the conventional technique is that the measurement state of the instantaneous heartbeat is evaluated based on the potential information of the two R waves forming the instantaneous heartbeat, not the time information of the instantaneous heartbeat.

心電図計測部11は、被験者の心電図を計測し、計測結果を瞬時心拍評価部12に送る。心電は、循環器系の生体信号であり、例えば、心室の収縮と同期した周期的な信号を含む。心電図計測部11は、少なくとも2極の電極によって心電の計測を行う。計測結果は、心電図におけるR波相当の心電を抽出可能なデータを含む。例えば、計測結果は心電図のデータを含む。心電図計測部11は、R波相当の心電波形を計測することができればよく、その実現形態は問わない。例えば、心電図計測部11はホルター心電計からなる。   The electrocardiogram measurement unit 11 measures the electrocardiogram of the subject and sends the measurement result to the instantaneous heartbeat evaluation unit 12. The electrocardiogram is a biological signal of the circulatory system and includes, for example, a periodic signal synchronized with the contraction of the ventricle. The electrocardiogram measurement unit 11 measures electrocardiogram with at least two electrodes. The measurement result includes data capable of extracting the electrocardiogram corresponding to the R wave in the electrocardiogram. For example, the measurement result includes electrocardiographic data. It suffices that the electrocardiogram measurement unit 11 be capable of measuring an electrocardiographic waveform equivalent to the R wave, and the implementation thereof does not matter. For example, the electrocardiogram measurement unit 11 includes a Holter electrocardiograph.

瞬時心拍評価部12は、心電図計測部11から計測結果を受け取り、受け取った計測結果に基づいて被験者の瞬時心拍を評価する。例えば、瞬時心拍評価部12は、R波抽出部121、R波関連情報記録部122、瞬時心拍算出部123、瞬時心拍記録部124、計測状態評価部125、計測状態フィードバック部(発報部)126、フィードバック条件記録部127を備える。   The instantaneous heartbeat evaluation unit 12 receives the measurement result from the electrocardiogram measurement unit 11 and evaluates the subject's instantaneous heartbeat based on the received measurement result. For example, the instantaneous heartbeat evaluation unit 12 includes the R wave extraction unit 121, the R wave related information recording unit 122, the instantaneous heartbeat calculation unit 123, the instantaneous heartbeat recording unit 124, the measurement state evaluation unit 125, and the measurement state feedback unit (reporting unit). 126 and a feedback condition recording unit 127.

Is realized by reading and executing the program stored in the memory. Note that some or all of these functions may be realized by a circuit such as an application specific integrated circuit (ASIC).

R波抽出部121は、心電図計測部11で取得した心電図を解析し、R波を抽出する。また、R波抽出部121は、抽出したR波の情報を、R波関連情報記録部122に記録する。   The R wave extraction unit 121 analyzes the electrocardiogram acquired by the electrocardiogram measurement unit 11 and extracts the R wave. The R wave extraction unit 121 also records the extracted R wave information in the R wave related information recording unit 122.

R波関連情報記録部122は、不揮発性メモリなどの記憶媒体を含み、この記憶媒体に対し、R波抽出部121で抽出したR波の情報を記録する。本実施形態は、R波の計測状態として、正常計測状態とアーチファクトとの少なくとも2種類の計測状態が区別可能な情報をR波関連情報記録部122への記録対象とするが、それ以外の情報については特に指定しない。例えば、正常計測状態とアーチファクトとに加え、ノイズを記録対象としても良いし、抽出したR波が出現した時間の情報をR波関連情報記録部122への記録対象としても良い。また、具体的な記録形式については特に指定しない。   The R-wave related information recording unit 122 includes a storage medium such as a non-volatile memory, and records the R-wave information extracted by the R-wave extraction unit 121 in the storage medium. In the present embodiment, as the R-wave measurement state, information that allows at least two types of measurement states, that is, a normal measurement state and an artifact, to be discriminated is recorded in the R-wave related information recording unit 122, but other information is recorded. Is not specified. For example, in addition to the normal measurement state and artifacts, noise may be recorded, or information on the time when the extracted R wave appears may be recorded in the R wave related information recording unit 122. The specific recording format is not specified.

瞬時心拍算出部123は、R波抽出部121で抽出したR波に基づき、隣接する二つのR波間の間隔である瞬時心拍を算出する。瞬時心拍算出部123は、算出した瞬時心拍の情報を瞬時心拍記録部124に記録する。   The instantaneous heartbeat calculating unit 123 calculates an instantaneous heartbeat that is the interval between two adjacent R waves based on the R wave extracted by the R wave extracting unit 121. The instantaneous heartbeat calculating unit 123 records information on the calculated instantaneous heartbeat in the instantaneous heartbeat recording unit 124.

瞬時心拍記録部124は、不揮発性メモリなどの記憶媒体を含み、この記憶媒体に対し、瞬時心拍算出部123で算出した瞬時心拍の情報を記録する。瞬時心拍記録部124への具体的な記録形式については特に指定しないが、例えば、(1)瞬時心拍の行列や、(2)瞬時心拍を構成する1つ目のR波の時刻情報と瞬時心拍との2つから構成されるデータ行列、が挙げられる。   The instantaneous heartbeat recording unit 124 includes a storage medium such as a non-volatile memory, and records the information of the instantaneous heartbeat calculated by the instantaneous heartbeat calculating unit 123 in the storage medium. Although a specific recording format for the instantaneous heartbeat recording unit 124 is not particularly specified, for example, (1) a matrix of instantaneous heartbeats, (2) time information of the first R wave forming the instantaneous heartbeats and the instantaneous heartbeats. And a data matrix composed of two.

なお、瞬時心拍記録部124の機能は本実施形態において必須の機能ではない。この機能は、R波の電位情報に加え、瞬時心拍の時間情報も考慮して心電図の計測状態を評価する場合のみに必要となる。   The function of the instantaneous heartbeat recording unit 124 is not an essential function in this embodiment. This function is necessary only when the measurement state of the electrocardiogram is evaluated in consideration of the time information of the instantaneous heartbeat in addition to the potential information of the R wave.

計測状態評価部125は、R波関連情報記録部122に記録される情報を基に、瞬時心拍の計測状態を評価する。具体的な評価手法については、後述する動作例で述べる。   The measurement state evaluation unit 125 evaluates the measurement state of the instantaneous heartbeat based on the information recorded in the R wave related information recording unit 122. A specific evaluation method will be described in an operation example described later.

計測状態フィードバック部126は、計測状態評価部125で瞬時心拍の計測状態が正常でないと評価した場合に、アラーム発報等を用いてユーザへのフィードバックを行なう。計測状態フィードバック部126による処理は、ユーザへのフィードバックを行なう際は必須である一方で、計測状態の評価のみを行い、ユーザへのフィードバックを行なわない場合は必ずしも具備しなくても良い。なお、フィードバックの実現方法については特に限られない。   When the measurement state evaluation unit 125 evaluates that the measurement state of the instantaneous heartbeat is not normal, the measurement state feedback unit 126 provides feedback to the user by using an alarm report or the like. The processing by the measurement state feedback unit 126 is indispensable for providing feedback to the user, but may not be necessarily provided only when evaluating the measurement state and not providing feedback to the user. Note that the method for realizing feedback is not particularly limited.

フィードバック条件記録部127は、不揮発性メモリなどの記憶媒体を含み、この記録媒体に対し、計測状態フィードバック部126によるフィードバック(アラーム発報)を行なうための条件(フィードバック条件(アラーム条件))を記録する。例えば、フィードバック条件記録部127では、フィードバック対象となる計測状態や、当該計測状態の継続時間などが記録対象となる。フィードバックを行なう条件としては、計測状態フィードバック部126によるフィードバックを行なう1つ以上の条件であれば良い。本実施形態では、フィードバック条件記録部127に記録すべき情報の詳細は特に限られない。   The feedback condition recording unit 127 includes a storage medium such as a non-volatile memory, and records a condition (feedback condition (alarm condition)) for performing feedback (alarm reporting) by the measurement state feedback unit 126 on this recording medium. To do. For example, the feedback condition recording unit 127 records the measurement state to be fed back, the duration of the measurement state, and the like. The conditions for performing feedback may be one or more conditions for performing feedback by the measurement state feedback unit 126. In this embodiment, details of information to be recorded in the feedback condition recording unit 127 are not particularly limited.

(動作例)
次に、実施形態の動作例について説明する。本実施形態では、R波の計測状態の例として、アーチファクト、ノイズ、正常計測状態の3種類を考慮する場合を仮定し、R波の電位情報を記録する場合について説明する。また、ノイズを考慮せず、アーチファクト、正常計測状態の2種類を考慮してもよい。以降では、電位情報のみを使用して瞬時心拍を評価する場合について述べる。
(Operation example)
Next, an operation example of the embodiment will be described. In this embodiment, as an example of the measurement state of the R wave, a case where three types of artifacts, noise, and a normal measurement state are considered is assumed, and a case of recording the potential information of the R wave will be described. Also, two types of artifacts and normal measurement states may be considered without considering noise. In the following, a case where the instantaneous heartbeat is evaluated using only the potential information will be described.

具体的な処理手順を以下に示す。図2は、本発明の実施形態における瞬時心拍評価装置による処理手順の一例を示すフローチャートである。
心電図計測部11は、最低でも2極の電極によって心電図の計測を行う(S1)。
R波抽出部121は、心電図計測部11で計測した心電図からR波を抽出する。R波抽出部121は、抽出した各R波の電位情報をR波関連情報記録部122に記録する。
The specific processing procedure is shown below. FIG. 2 is a flowchart showing an example of a processing procedure by the instantaneous heartbeat evaluating apparatus according to the embodiment of the present invention.
The electrocardiogram measurement unit 11 measures the electrocardiogram with at least two electrodes (S1).
The R wave extraction unit 121 extracts the R wave from the electrocardiogram measured by the electrocardiogram measurement unit 11. The R wave extraction unit 121 records the extracted potential information of each R wave in the R wave related information recording unit 122.

瞬時心拍算出部123は、R波抽出部121で抽出したR波に基づき、隣接する2つのR波から瞬時心拍を算出する(S2)。瞬時心拍の時間情報も考慮に入れて瞬時心拍の計測状態の評価を行なう場合のみ、瞬時心拍算出部123は、算出した瞬時心拍の情報を瞬時心拍記録部124に記録する。   The instantaneous heartbeat calculating unit 123 calculates an instantaneous heartbeat from two adjacent R waves based on the R wave extracted by the R wave extracting unit 121 (S2). The instantaneous heartbeat calculating unit 123 records the calculated instantaneous heartbeat information in the instantaneous heartbeat recording unit 124 only when the measurement state of the instantaneous heartbeat is evaluated in consideration of the time information of the instantaneous heartbeat.

計測状態評価部125は、R波関連情報記録部122に記録した、R波の電位情報に基づいて、瞬時心拍の計測状態を評価する。なお、同等の評価が行えるのであれば、計測状態評価部125は、R波の電位情報に代えて別の基準を用いて瞬時心拍の計測状態を評価しても良い。例えば、計測状態評価部125は、心電図の統計情報に基づいて計測状態の異常判別を行い、当該異常判別の結果と、計測したR波の情報とを組み合わせた情報に基づいて瞬時心拍の計測状態を評価しても良い。   The measurement state evaluation unit 125 evaluates the measurement state of the instantaneous heartbeat based on the R wave potential information recorded in the R wave related information recording unit 122. Note that the measurement state evaluation unit 125 may evaluate the measurement state of the instantaneous heartbeat using another reference instead of the potential information of the R wave, as long as the same evaluation can be performed. For example, the measurement state evaluation unit 125 performs the abnormality determination of the measurement state based on the statistical information of the electrocardiogram, and the measurement state of the instantaneous heartbeat based on the information obtained by combining the result of the abnormality determination and the information of the measured R wave. May be evaluated.

瞬時心拍の計測状態の評価の一例を説明する。本実施形態では、計測状態評価部125は、瞬時心拍を構成する2つのR波の電位情報に基づいて、正常計測状態、ノイズ、アーチファクトの3種類の計測状態をR波の計測状態として判別する。   An example of evaluation of the measurement state of the instantaneous heartbeat will be described. In the present embodiment, the measurement state evaluation unit 125 determines three types of measurement states of a normal measurement state, noise, and an artifact as R wave measurement states based on the potential information of the two R waves forming the instantaneous heartbeat. ..

本実施形態では、計測状態評価部125の図示しない内部メモリは、以下の表1に記載される、R波の計測状態の評価基準を記憶しており、計測状態評価部125は、この評価基準に基づき、当該R波の計測状態がアーチファクトであるかどうかを判別する(S3)。   In the present embodiment, the internal memory (not shown) of the measurement state evaluation unit 125 stores the evaluation standard of the measurement state of the R wave described in Table 1 below, and the measurement state evaluation unit 125 uses the evaluation standard. Based on, it is determined whether or not the measurement state of the R wave is an artifact (S3).

計測状態評価部125は、S3でアーチファクトではないと判別されたR波の計測状態について、ノイズ(正常計測状態と比較して電位の基線が一定以上変動している波形)であるかどうかの判別を行なう(S4)。この判別についても、基線変動を検出できる手法であれば実現手段は問わない。   The measurement state evaluation unit 125 determines whether or not the measurement state of the R wave that is determined to be not an artifact in S3 is noise (a waveform in which the baseline of the potential changes by a certain amount or more compared to the normal measurement state). (S4). As for this discrimination, any means can be used as long as it can detect the baseline fluctuation.

本実施形態では、計測状態評価部125は、判別対象のR波の電位(図3中の矢印の先端部)と、判別対象のR波を含むQRS群(心電)の電位振幅の絶対値(図3参照)が閾値を超えた場合に当該R波をノイズと判別する。本実施形態では、この閾値を0.5mVと仮定する。図3は、QRS群の電位振幅の絶対値と、R波の電位の関係の一例を示す図である。   In the present embodiment, the measurement state evaluation unit 125 uses the potential of the R wave to be discriminated (the tip of the arrow in FIG. 3) and the absolute value of the potential amplitude of the QRS complex (electrocardiogram) including the R wave to be discriminated. When (see FIG. 3) exceeds the threshold value, the R wave is determined as noise. In this embodiment, this threshold is assumed to be 0.5 mV. FIG. 3 is a diagram showing an example of the relationship between the absolute value of the potential amplitude of the QRS complex and the potential of the R wave.

計測状態評価部125は、S3、S4でアーチファクトやノイズであると判別されなかったR波の計測状態が正常計測状態であると判別する(S5)。
計測状態評価部125は、各R波について判別された計測状態に基づき、隣接する2つのR波から構成される瞬時心拍の計測状態を評価する(S6)。正常計測状態、ノイズ、アーチファクトの3種を考慮する場合、瞬時心拍を構成するR波の計測状態の判別結果の組み合わせは、以下の表2に示す通し番号#1〜#9で示されるパタンのいずれかとなる。なお、通し番号の形式は上記に限られない。
The measurement state evaluation unit 125 determines that the measurement state of the R wave that has not been determined to be an artifact or noise in S3 and S4 is a normal measurement state (S5).
The measurement state evaluation unit 125 evaluates the measurement state of the instantaneous heartbeat composed of two adjacent R waves based on the measurement state determined for each R wave (S6). When considering three types of normal measurement state, noise, and artifact, the combination of the determination results of the measurement state of the R wave that constitutes the instantaneous heartbeat is one of the patterns shown by serial numbers # 1 to # 9 shown in Table 2 below. It becomes The format of the serial number is not limited to the above.

表2における判別結果の「R」は正常計測状態を示し、「N」はノイズを示し、「A」はアーチファクトを示す。つまり、表2における通し番号#1に対応する判別結果の「R、R」は、隣接する1つ目および2つ目のR波の計測状態の判別結果がともに正常計測状態であることを示す。表2における通し番号#2に対応する判別結果の「R、N」は、隣接する1つ目のR波の計測状態の判別結果が正常状態で、2つ目のR波の計測状態の判別結果がノイズであることを示す。表2における通し番号#3に対応する判別結果の「N、R」は、隣接する1つ目のR波の計測状態の判別結果がノイズで、2つ目のR波の計測状態の判別結果が正常状態であることを示す。表2における通し番号#4に対応する判別結果の「N、N」は、隣接する1つ目および2つ目のR波の計測状態の判別結果がともにノイズであることを示す。   “R” of the determination result in Table 2 indicates a normal measurement state, “N” indicates noise, and “A” indicates an artifact. That is, "R, R" of the determination result corresponding to the serial number # 1 in Table 2 indicates that the determination results of the adjacent first and second R-wave measurement states are both normal measurement states. “R, N” of the determination result corresponding to the serial number # 2 in Table 2 indicates that the determination result of the measurement state of the adjacent first R wave is normal and the determination result of the measurement state of the second R wave is Indicates that is noise. In the determination result “N, R” corresponding to the serial number # 3 in Table 2, the determination result of the measurement state of the adjacent first R wave is noise, and the determination result of the measurement state of the second R wave is Indicates a normal state. “N, N” of the discrimination result corresponding to the serial number # 4 in Table 2 indicates that the discrimination results of the measurement states of the first and second adjacent R waves are both noise.

表2における通し番号#5に対応する判別結果の「R、A」は、隣接する1つ目のR波の計測状態の判別結果が正常状態で、2つ目のR波の計測状態の判別結果がアーチファクトであることを示す。表2における通し番号#6に対応する判別結果の「A、R」は、隣接する1つ目のR波の計測状態の判別結果がアーチファクトで、2つ目のR波の計測状態の判別結果が正常状態であることを示す。表2における通し番号#7に対応する判別結果の「N、A」は、隣接する1つ目のR波の計測状態の判別結果がノイズで、2つ目のR波の計測状態の判別結果がアーチファクトであることを示す。表2における通し番号#8に対応する判別結果の「A、N」は、隣接する1つ目のR波の計測状態の判別結果がアーチファクトで、2つ目のR波の計測状態の判別結果がノイズであることを示す。表2における通し番号#9に対応する判別結果の「A、A」は、隣接する1つ目および2つ目のR波の計測状態の判別結果がともにアーチファクトであることを示す。   “R, A” of the determination result corresponding to the serial number # 5 in Table 2 indicates that the determination result of the measurement state of the adjacent first R wave is normal and the determination result of the measurement state of the second R wave is Indicates that is an artifact. In “A, R” of the determination result corresponding to the serial number # 6 in Table 2, the determination result of the measurement state of the adjacent first R wave is an artifact, and the determination result of the measurement state of the second R wave is Indicates a normal state. In “N, A” of the determination result corresponding to the serial number # 7 in Table 2, the determination result of the measurement state of the adjacent first R wave is noise, and the determination result of the measurement state of the second R wave is Indicates an artifact. In “A, N” of the determination result corresponding to the serial number # 8 in Table 2, the determination result of the measurement state of the adjacent first R wave is an artifact and the determination result of the measurement state of the second R wave is Indicates noise. “A, A” of the discrimination result corresponding to the serial number # 9 in Table 2 indicates that the discrimination results of the measurement states of the first and second adjacent R waves are both artifacts.

表2における「状態の詳細」は、表2における同じ行の判別結果に基づく、隣接する2つのR波の計測状態の詳細を示す。
「状態の詳細」の表現では、瞬時心拍を構成する2つのR波の計測状態の判別結果の組み合わせのみを区別し、時系列の前後を区別しない。つまり、表2に示した例では、計測状態の判別結果の組み合わせは通し番号#1〜#9に対応する9通りであるが、#2、#3に対応する「状態の詳細」は同じ「片方は正常計測状態、他方はノイズ」で、#5、#6に対応する「状態の詳細」は同じ「片方は正常計測状態、他方はアーチファクト」で、#7、#8に対応する「状態の詳細」は同じ「片方はノイズ、他方はアーチファクト」となる。このため、表2における「状態の詳細」は6通りである。
“Details of state” in Table 2 indicates details of measurement states of two adjacent R waves based on the determination result of the same row in Table 2.
In the expression "details of state", only the combination of the determination results of the measurement states of the two R waves forming the instantaneous heartbeat is distinguished, and the front and rear of the time series are not distinguished. That is, in the example shown in Table 2, there are nine combinations of measurement state determination results corresponding to serial numbers # 1 to # 9, but the “details of state” corresponding to # 2 and # 3 are the same “one side”. Is a normal measurement state, the other is noise, and the "details of states" corresponding to # 5 and # 6 are the same "one is a normal measurement state, the other is an artifact", and the "state of “Details” is the same “one is noise and the other is artifact”. Therefore, there are six “details of states” in Table 2.

計測状態評価部125は、「状態の詳細」が後述するフィードバックの要否の判断において容易に区別できるよう、各状態に別個の評価情報を少なくとも1種類割り当てる。評価情報の一例として、表2に示す「状態名」と「状態区分」の2種類の評価情報を用いる場合の例を説明する。   The measurement state evaluation unit 125 assigns at least one kind of separate evaluation information to each state so that the “details of state” can be easily distinguished in the determination of necessity of feedback described later. As an example of the evaluation information, an example of using two kinds of evaluation information of “state name” and “state classification” shown in Table 2 will be described.

次に、表2における「状態名」について説明する。この「状態名」は、表2における同じ行の「状態の詳細」で示される状態である、瞬時心拍を構成する2つのR波のそれぞれの計測状態を、アルファベット2文字で表現したものである。R波の判別状態と同様に、表2において、あるR波の計測状態が正常計測状態を示すときは「R」が用いられ、ノイズを示すときは「N」が用いられ、アーチファクトを示すときは「A」が用いられる。   Next, the “state name” in Table 2 will be described. This “state name” is a state represented by “details of state” in the same row in Table 2 and represents the measurement states of the two R waves forming the instantaneous heartbeat by two letters of the alphabet. .. Similar to the R wave discrimination state, in Table 2, “R” is used when the measurement state of a certain R wave indicates a normal measurement state, “N” is used when it indicates noise, and when an artifact is indicated. "A" is used for.

例えば、表2に示すように、通し番号#1における「状態の詳細」が「2つとも正常計測状態」のとき、この通し番号#1における「状態名」は、「RR」となる。
また、「状態の詳細」の表現と同じく、「状態名」の表現では、瞬時心拍を構成する2つのR波の計測状態の判別結果の組み合わせのみを区別し、時系列の前後を区別しない。つまり、表2に示すように、通し番号#2における「判別結果」が「R、N」で、通し番号#3における「判別結果」が、時系列の前後が入れ替わった「N、R」であるのに対し、これら通し番号#2、#3における「状態の詳細」は、共通した「片方は正常計測状態、他方はノイズ」であり、これら通し番号#2、#3における「状態名」は、共通した「RN」である。
また、通し番号#4における「状態の詳細」は、「2つともノイズ」であって、この通し番号#4における「状態名」は「NN」である。
For example, as shown in Table 2, when the "details of state" in serial number # 1 is "both are normal measurement states", the "state name" in serial number # 1 is "RR".
Further, like the expression of “details of status”, the expression of “status name” distinguishes only the combination of the determination results of the measurement statuses of the two R waves forming the instantaneous heartbeat, and does not distinguish before and after the time series. That is, as shown in Table 2, the "discrimination result" for the serial number # 2 is "R, N", and the "discrimination result" for the serial number # 3 is "N, R" in which the front and back of the time series are interchanged. On the other hand, the "details of state" in these serial numbers # 2 and # 3 are common "one is a normal measurement state, the other is noise", and the "state name" in these serial numbers # 2 and # 3 is common. It is "RN".
The “state details” in serial number # 4 is “two noise”, and the “state name” in serial number # 4 is “NN”.

通し番号#5、#6における「状態の詳細」は、共通した「片方は正常計測状態、他方はアーチファクト」であり、これら通し番号#5、#6における「状態名」は、共通した「RA」である。   The "details of state" in the serial numbers # 5 and # 6 are common "one is a normal measurement state, the other is an artifact", and the "state name" in these serial numbers # 5 and # 6 is a common "RA". is there.

通し番号#7、#8における「状態の詳細」は、共通した「片方はノイズ、他方はアーチファクト」であり、これら通し番号#7、#9における「状態名」は、共通した「NA」である。
通し番号#9における「状態の詳細」は、「2つともアーチファクト」であり、この通し番号#9における「状態名」は「AA」である。
The “details of state” in the serial numbers # 7 and # 8 are common “one is noise and the other is artifact”, and the “state name” in these serial numbers # 7 and # 9 is the common “NA”.
The "details of state" in the serial number # 9 is "two artifacts", and the "state name" in the serial number # 9 is "AA".

次に、表2における「状態区分」について説明する。この「状態区分」は、表2における同じ行の「状態名」の種別に応じて、瞬時心拍の計測状態を「正常」、「準正常」、「異常」で区分して表現したものである。   Next, the “state classification” in Table 2 will be described. This "state classification" is a representation of the instantaneous heartbeat measurement state divided into "normal", "quasi-normal", and "abnormal" according to the type of "state name" in the same row in Table 2. ..

ここでは、「状態名」で示される2文字のアルファベットがともに「R」である場合のみ、「状態区分」として「正常」が用いられる。また、「状態名」で示されるアルファベットが「RN」または「NN」である、つまり2文字のアルファベットの少なくとも一方が「N」を含むが、2文字のアルファベットがともに「A」を含まない場合は、「状態区分」として「準正常」が用いられる。また、「状態名」で示される2文字のアルファベットが「RA」、「NA」または「AA」である、つまり2文字アルファベットの少なくとも一方が「A」である場合は、「状態区分」として「異常」が用いられる。   Here, "normal" is used as the "state classification" only when the two-letter alphabets indicated by the "state name" are both "R". Further, when the alphabet indicated by "state name" is "RN" or "NN", that is, at least one of the two alphabets includes "N", but the two alphabets do not include "A". "Quasi-normal" is used as the "state classification". If the two-letter alphabet indicated by "state name" is "RA", "NA", or "AA", that is, if at least one of the two-letter alphabets is "A", the "state classification" is " "Abnormal" is used.

例えば、表2に示すように、通し番号#1における「状態名」が「RR」のとき、この通し番号#1における「状態区分」は、「正常」となる。
また、通し番号#2、#3における「状態名」が「RN」で、通し番号#4における「状態名」が、「NN」であるのに対し、通し番号#2、#3、#4における「状態区分」は、共通した「準正常」となる。
For example, as shown in Table 2, when the "state name" in the serial number # 1 is "RR", the "state classification" in the serial number # 1 is "normal".
The “state name” in serial numbers # 2 and # 3 is “RN” and the “state name” in serial number # 4 is “NN”, whereas the “state” in serial numbers # 2, # 3, and # 4 is The “category” is the common “quasi-normal”.

また、通し番号#5、#6における「状態名」が「RA」で、通し番号#7、#8における「状態名」が「NA」で、通し番号#9における「状態名」が、「AA」であるのに対し、通し番号#5、#6、#7、#8、#9、における「状態区分」は、共通した「異常」となる。   Further, the "state name" in the serial numbers # 5 and # 6 is "RA", the "state name" in the serial numbers # 7 and # 8 is "NA", and the "state name" in the serial number # 9 is "AA". On the other hand, the "state classification" in the serial numbers # 5, # 6, # 7, # 8, and # 9 is a common "abnormal".

なお、上記の評価情報の種別はあくまでも一例であり、評価情報の決め方は特に限られない。例えば、「状態の詳細」に対し、隣接する2つのR波の前後の関係を示す情報がユーザにとって簡潔に判別可能な評価情報を定めても良いし、「状態の詳細」に対し、3種類以上の評価情報を設定しても良い。   Note that the types of evaluation information described above are merely examples, and the method of determining evaluation information is not particularly limited. For example, for the “details of the state”, the evaluation information may be set such that the information indicating the relationship before and after two adjacent R waves can be easily discriminated by the user. The above evaluation information may be set.

計測状態評価部125は、表2に示すように、R波で構成される瞬時心拍の計測状態の「状態の詳細」、「状態名」、「状態区分」を区別できる情報を生成する。本実施形態では、計測状態評価部125は、上記の「状態の詳細」、「状態名」、「状態区分」を通し番号(#1、#2、…)を用いて関連付けた情報を生成して内部メモリに記憶しておく。
そして、計測状態評価部125は、表2に示す情報と、R波関連情報記録部122に記録した情報で示されるR波のうち、瞬時心拍算出部123で算出した瞬時心拍を構成する2つのR波の計測状態の判別結果とを照合して、該当する「状態の詳細」と、「状態名」と、「状態区分」とを表2に示す情報から特定し、この特定した結果を、瞬時心拍算出部123により算出した瞬時心拍の計測状態の評価結果として求める(S6)。
As shown in Table 2, the measurement state evaluation unit 125 generates information capable of distinguishing the “state details”, the “state name”, and the “state classification” of the measurement state of the instantaneous heartbeat configured by the R wave. In the present embodiment, the measurement state evaluation unit 125 generates information in which the above “details of state”, “state name”, and “state classification” are associated using serial numbers (# 1, # 2, ...). Store in internal memory.
Then, the measurement state evaluation unit 125, among the R waves shown in the information shown in Table 2 and the information recorded in the R wave related information recording unit 122, the two of the R heart waves that form the instantaneous heartbeat calculated by the instantaneous heartbeat calculation unit 123 By collating with the determination result of the measurement state of the R wave, the corresponding "details of state", "state name", and "state classification" are identified from the information shown in Table 2, and the identified result is It is obtained as an evaluation result of the measurement state of the instantaneous heartbeat calculated by the instantaneous heartbeat calculating unit 123 (S6).

計測状態フィードバック部126は、計測状態評価部125による評価の結果と、フィードバック条件記録部127に記録された情報とを照合し、この照合の結果に基づいて、瞬時心拍の計測状態のフィードバックを行なう(S7)。   The measurement state feedback unit 126 collates the evaluation result of the measurement state evaluation unit 125 with the information recorded in the feedback condition recording unit 127, and based on the result of the collation, feeds back the measurement state of the instantaneous heartbeat. (S7).

フィードバック条件の一例として、以下に示す(1)第1のアラーム条件、(2)第2のアラーム条件がフィードバック条件記録部127に記録されていると仮定し、計測状態フィードバック部126が、一定時間ごとに、この一定時間内に計測された心電図に基づいた瞬時心拍について評価された各計測状態(「状態名」または「状態区分」)の割合を算出してフィードバックの要否の判別の例について述べる。この例で規定する、アラーム対象の状態や、30秒間に計測した心電図に対して評価した所定の種別の瞬時心拍の割合は一例であり、本発明ではその詳細を規定しない。   As an example of the feedback condition, it is assumed that the following (1) first alarm condition and (2) second alarm condition shown below are recorded in the feedback condition recording unit 127, and the measurement state feedback unit 126 displays For each example, calculate the ratio of each measurement state (“state name” or “state category”) evaluated for the instantaneous heartbeat based on the electrocardiogram measured within this fixed time, and determine the feedback necessity. State. The state of the alarm target and the proportion of the instantaneous heartbeat of a predetermined type evaluated with respect to the electrocardiogram measured in 30 seconds, which are defined in this example, are examples, and details thereof are not defined in the present invention.

(1)第1のアラーム条件
第1のアラーム条件は以下の(1−1)〜(1−4)でなる。
(1) First Alarm Condition The first alarm condition is (1-1) to (1-4) below.

(1−1)フィードバック対象である状態区分(状態名):「異常」(状態名「RA」、「NA」、「AA」のいずれか)

(1-1) Status classification (status name) to be fed back: "abnormal" (any of status names "RA", "NA", and "AA")
(1-2) Detection conditions: 15% or more of the instantaneous heartbeats evaluated for the electrocardiogram measured in 30 seconds correspond to (1-1). (1-3) Feedback means: (1- If 2) is satisfied, an audio alarm is issued (1-4) Priority: High (higher than the second alarm condition)

(2−1)フィードバック対象である状態名:「NN」
(2−2)検出条件:30秒間に計測した心電図に対して評価した瞬時心拍の15%の状態名が、(2−1)に該当すること
(2−3)フィードバック手段:(2−2)を満たす場合に音声アラームを発報する
(2−4)優先度:中(第1のアラーム条件より低い)
計測状態フィードバック部126は、30秒毎に、この30秒間に計測した心電図に対して評価した瞬時心拍の各状態名または各状態区分の割合、つまり、(a)30秒間における、評価した瞬時心拍の全体に対する、状態名「RR」、「RN」、「NN」、「RA」、「NA」、「AA」のそれぞれに該当する瞬時心拍の割合、または、(b)30秒間における、評価した瞬時心拍の全体に対する、状態区分「正常」、「準正常」、「異常」のそれぞれに該当する瞬時心拍の割合を算出する。
(2-1) State name that is the feedback target: "NN"
(2-2) Detection condition: The state name of 15% of the instantaneous heartbeat evaluated for the electrocardiogram measured in 30 seconds corresponds to (2-1). (2-3) Feedback means: (2-2 (2-4) Priority: Medium (lower than the first alarm condition)
The measurement state feedback unit 126, every 30 seconds, the ratio of each state name or each state segment of the instantaneous heartbeat evaluated for the electrocardiogram measured in the 30 seconds, that is, (a) the evaluated instantaneous heartbeat in 30 seconds. Of the instantaneous heartbeats corresponding to each of the state names "RR", "RN", "NN", "RA", "NA", and "AA", or (b) evaluated for 30 seconds. The ratio of the instantaneous heartbeats corresponding to each of the status categories “normal”, “quasi-normal”, and “abnormal” with respect to the entire instantaneous heartbeats is calculated.

計測状態フィードバック部126は、各アラーム条件で定められ優先度に従い、まず、優先度が高い第1アラーム条件を用いた判別を行う。具体的には、計測状態フィードバック部126は、30秒間における、評価した瞬時心拍の15%以上の状態区分が「異常」である、つまり、30秒間における評価した瞬時心拍の数を100%としたときに対し、この30秒間における、状態名が「RA」と評価された瞬時心拍、状態名が「NA」と評価された瞬時心拍、状態名が「AA」と評価された瞬時心拍の合計割合が15%以上である場合に、音声でアラームを発報する。   The measurement state feedback unit 126 first makes a determination using the first alarm condition having a high priority, according to the priority determined by each alarm condition. Specifically, the measurement state feedback unit 126 determines that 15% or more of the evaluated instantaneous heartbeats in 30 seconds are “abnormal”, that is, the evaluated instantaneous heartbeat number in 30 seconds is 100%. On the other hand, the total ratio of the instantaneous heartbeats whose state name was evaluated as "RA", the instantaneous heartbeats whose state name was evaluated as "NA", and the instantaneous heartbeats whose state name was evaluated as "AA" during this 30 seconds. If the value is 15% or more, an alarm is sounded.

第1のアラーム条件を満足しない場合は、計測状態フィードバック部126は、第2のアラーム条件を用いた判別に移行する。具体的には、計測状態フィードバック部126は、30秒間における評価した瞬時心拍の数を100%としたときに対し、この30秒間における、評価した瞬時心拍の15%以上の状態名が「NN」である場合は、音声でアラームを発報する。   When the first alarm condition is not satisfied, the measurement state feedback unit 126 shifts to the determination using the second alarm condition. Specifically, the measurement state feedback unit 126 sets the state name of 15% or more of the evaluated instantaneous heartbeats for 30 seconds as "NN", when the evaluated instantaneous heartbeat rate for 30 seconds is 100%. If it is, an alarm is sounded.

また、各R波の計測状態として、ノイズを考慮せずに、アーチファクト、正常計測状態の2種類を考慮するときは、表2における各R波の計測状態の判別結果を「R、R」、「R、A」、「A、R」、「A、A」の4通りとして、「状態の詳細」を、(1)判別結果「R、R」に対応する「2つとも正常計測状態」および、(2)判別結果「R、A」、「A、R」、「A、A」に対応する「少なくとも一方がアーチファクト」の2通りとしてもよい。
この場合、「状態の詳細」の「2つとも正常計測状態」に対応する状態名を「RR」とし、「状態の詳細」の「少なくとも一方がアーチファクト」に対応する状態名を「RA」とすることができる。
また、状態名「RR」に対応する状態区分を「正常」とし、状態名「RA」に対応する状態区分を「異常」とすることができる。
Further, when considering two types of measurement states of each R wave without considering noise, that is, an artifact and a normal measurement state, the determination result of the measurement state of each R wave in Table 2 is “R, R”, There are four types of “R, A”, “A, R”, and “A, A”, and “Details of state” are (1) “Both are normal measurement states” corresponding to the determination result “R, R”. Further, (2) the determination results “R, A”, “A, R”, and “A, A” may be two types of “at least one is an artifact”.
In this case, the state name corresponding to "both normal measurement states" of "state details" is set to "RR", and the state name corresponding to "at least one is an artifact" of "state details" is set to "RA". can do.
Further, the status classification corresponding to the status name "RR" can be set to "normal", and the status classification corresponding to the status name "RA" can be set to "abnormal".

次に、本発明によって生じる効果について説明する。
本発明では、R波の電位情報に基づいて瞬時心拍の計測状態を評価することで、計測対象(被験者)の異常と計測系(計測機器)の異常とを判別することが可能となる。
Next, effects produced by the present invention will be described.
In the present invention, by evaluating the measurement state of the instantaneous heartbeat based on the potential information of the R wave, it is possible to distinguish between the abnormality of the measurement target (subject) and the abnormality of the measurement system (measuring device).

通常、計測対象の心電に異常な心電が含まれる場合であっても、この計測対象について計測されるR波の電位は正常のままである。一方、計測系(計測機器)に異常が発生した場合、計測されるR波の電位は正常とはならない。このことから、本実施形態で示された技術と従来技術とを組み合わせることで、計測対象の異常と計測系の異常とを別個に判別し、フィードバックの要否を判別することが可能となる。   Usually, even when the electrocardiogram of the measurement target includes an abnormal electrocardiogram, the potential of the R wave measured for the measurement target remains normal. On the other hand, when an abnormality occurs in the measurement system (measuring device), the measured R-wave potential is not normal. From this, by combining the technique shown in the present embodiment and the conventional technique, it is possible to separately determine the abnormality of the measurement target and the abnormality of the measurement system, and to determine the necessity of feedback.

また、本発明では、実施形態で示したように、瞬時心拍の複数種類の計測状態と複数種類のフィードバック条件とを設定することで、計測状態の異常の段階を評価することも可能となる。よって、フィードバックの要否を高い精度で判別できる。   Further, in the present invention, as shown in the embodiment, it is also possible to evaluate the abnormal stage of the measurement state by setting a plurality of types of measurement states of the instantaneous heartbeat and a plurality of types of feedback conditions. Therefore, the necessity of feedback can be determined with high accuracy.

特に、ウェアラブルデバイスにおいては、ノイズと判別された波形の計測後に、アーチファクトの計測に移行することが多い。このことから、例えば一定割合の瞬時心拍を構成するR波の計測状態がノイズであることをフィードバックすることで、瞬時心拍を構成するR波の計測状態がアーチファクトに陥ることを未然に防ぐことも可能になる。   Especially in wearable devices, measurement of an artifact is often performed after measurement of a waveform determined to be noise. From this, for example, by feeding back that the measurement state of the R wave forming the instantaneous heartbeat is noise, it is possible to prevent the measurement state of the R wave forming the instantaneous heartbeat from falling into an artifact. It will be possible.

また、本発明では、計測状態フィードバック部126がアラームを一度発報した後も、継続的に計測異常の判別を行うことができるため、アラームの発報後に、管理者により実施した対応策が有効であったかを確認できる。例えば、先の30秒間における瞬時心拍の評価結果とアラーム条件とに応じたアラーム発報後に、管理者により計測機器の電極をずらすなどの対応を施した後に、計測状態フィードバック部126が、任意の30秒間における瞬時心拍の評価結果とアラーム条件と再度照合することにより、当該対処が正しかったかを確認できる。   Further, according to the present invention, even after the measurement state feedback unit 126 has issued an alarm once, it is possible to continuously determine the measurement abnormality. Therefore, the countermeasure implemented by the administrator after the alarm is issued is effective. Can be confirmed. For example, after the alarm is issued according to the evaluation result of the instantaneous heartbeat and the alarm condition in the previous 30 seconds, the measurement state feedback unit 126 performs an arbitrary operation after the administrator takes measures such as shifting the electrodes of the measuring device. By collating the evaluation result of the instantaneous heartbeat for 30 seconds with the alarm condition again, it is possible to confirm whether the countermeasure was correct.
