Abstract: A measurement support system includes a measurement device and a management device connected to the measurement device via a communications network. When the measurement device uses consumable materials such as reagents, the management device manages the stock of consumable materials, supplies the consumable materials, and corrects measured data in accordance with the state of the consumable materials. Thus, the measurement support system can reduce the burden on users of the measurement device. The reagents that are used in measurement by a personal measuring instrument (3) located at each of patients' homes (B, C, . . . ) are assigned a reagent ID number beforehand. This reagent ID number and measured data are transmitted to a host computer (1) of a medical institution (A). The host computer (1) determines the stock of reagents based on the consumable material identifier received from the personal measuring instrument (3) and ships the reagents to the patient's home when the stock is running low.

Abstract: A data communication adaptor (1) is provided which includes a data inputting unit (63) for inputting data from a first information processing apparatus (3) and a data outputting unit (64) for outputting data to a second information processing apparatus (2). The data communication adaptor (1) further includes a memory (65) for storing a plurality of pieces of data which are inputted through the data inputting unit (63) and include data-discriminating information for discrimination from other data pieces, while also including a selector (66) for selecting the data satisfying a particular condition from the plurality of data pieces stored in the memory (65) based on the data-discriminating information, a data processor (68) for processing the data selected by the selector (66) and a controller (69) for controlling outputting of data through the data outputting unit (64).

Abstract: It is an object of the present invention to provide a remote data management system with which, by keeping the transmission of measured data from measurers from being concentrated at particular times, the measured data can be gathered efficiently and the party managing the data can suffice with a minimal equipment investment. In patient households (B, C . . . ), a personal measuring device (3) is connected to a communications device (2) via a cable or the like, and data that are measured by the personal measuring device (3) are transferred to the communications device (2) and stored. A server (1) of a medical institution (A) sends a data transmission request to the communications device (2) in each patient's household via a public communications network 10 daily, biweekly, or monthly, for example. When the communications device (2) receives the data transmission request it transmits the stored measured data to the server (1).

Abstract: A measurement assisting system in which a point or points depending on the measurement result are given to the measurer, a reward depending on the obtained points are given to the measurer, and thus the measurer is motivated to make an accurate measurement. A patient sends data on the measurement made by using a blood sugar meter (1) to a self-measurement assisting server (6) through a game machine (2) with a communication function using a mobile telephone (3) over the Internet (4). The self-measurement assisting server (6) gives the patient a point or points corresponding to the evaluation of the measurement data. If the obtained points exceeds a predetermined value, the self-measurement assisting server (6) sends an electronic medium reward (on-line incentive) such as a game characteristic usable by the game machine (2) to the game machine (2) of the patient.
