ABSTRACT:
A wrist wearable device for the detection and monitoring of possible allergy symptoms and relation to specific triggering conditions. The device has a visual display and is operatively attached to a human pulse point. It also has a clock/calendar timer, pulse measurement mechanism and alarm, an addressable memory with an input control, preinstalled icons and user controlled identification symbols and a logic circuit system. The device is adapted to be worn constantly with pulse measurements, related to time and date, being stored in memory. Average pulse rates are determined, based on time and day of week and stored in memory. Excessively elevated pulse rate spikes (relative to determined average pulse rates) are monitored and the wearer is warned of the elevated level. Absent ostensible physical and emotional causes, elevated pulse rates are attributable to allergic reactions. To ascertain the source of the allergy, the wearer of the device, scrolls through pre-programmed icon representations of common allergy inducing foods or conditions and sets the device to monitor conditions present at the time of pulse rate spike. Thereafter, the device is addressed by the wearer when any or all of the conditions are replicated. The device relates time (time and day) with elevated pulse rate and replicated condition and stores pulse spikes in memory. After a pre-determined time period, correlated and stored conditions are downloaded for analysis of possible allergic reactions and causes.
