A goal management system receives input of a qualitative first goal related to a body of a user (step S), identifies a quantitative second goal related to the body of the user from the first goal thus received (step Sto step S), and presents the second goal thus identified (step S). The first goal is converted into the quantitative goal for at least one of a plurality of feature amounts related to the body, thereby identifying the second goal including at least one goal obtained by such conversion. The first goal is converted into the quantitative goal for each feature amount corresponding to a meaning obtained by linguistic analysis. When there are a plurality of meanings obtained by linguistic analysis of the first goal, the first goal is converted into the quantitative goal for each feature amount on the basis of a range of each feature amount per meaning. This makes it possible to indicate a quantitative goal related to the body without receiving input of a goal that is a quantitative numerical value related to the body.

A blood pressure measurement method includes wrapping a cuff around a site. The cuff includes: a first bladder that swells due to receiving fluid and is arranged at an outer surface of the site that corresponds to a first half surface where an artery is; and a second bladder that swells due to receiving fluid and is arranged at the outer circumferential surface of the measurement site that corresponds to a second half surface opposite to the first half surface. During inflation, the pressure of the second bladder is made larger than the first bladder by supplying more fluid such that the stroke amount by which the second fluid bladder swells is larger in the thickness direction. Then, the two bladders are inflated at equal rates. In the process of inflating, or in the process of deflating at rates equal to each other after inflating, blood pressure is measured.

Whether intervention is necessary is assessed due to an occurrence of a divergence of a current value of a predetermined index from a route corresponding to a transition in value of the predetermined index to a target value of the predetermined index for reaching a target relating to a body of a user (steps Sto S), and, when intervention is assessed to be necessary, using an intervention result per each of persons intervening relating to a target index stored in a storage unit, a person with a high contribution toward reaching the target from among persons intervening for the user is determined (steps Sand S), and processing for prompting the determined person for intervention is executed (step S). A timing with a high contribution is determined using an intervention result stored in the storage unit that further stores intervention results per each intervention timing relating to a target index. Processing for prompting the person intervening for intervention at the determined timing is executed. This can effectively prompt the user to improve to reach a target relating to the body.

An appliance includes a belt that is worn by being wound around a wrist. The appliance includes: at least a first display region that is positioned in an area of the belt that corresponds to a volar-side surface or a radius-side surface of the wrist; and a second display region that is positioned in an area of the belt that corresponds to a back-side surface of the wrist. During a blood pressure measurement period, first control for displaying ongoing blood pressure measurement information only on the first display region is performed, and during a period other than the blood pressure measurement period, second control for displaying information that needs to be displayed on the first or second display region is performed.

A fluid bladder has a first fluid bladder region that inflates due to receiving a supply of fluid and is contained in a portion of an outer circumferential surface of a measurement site in a lengthwise direction of a cuff, the portion corresponding to a first half surface, where an artery is. Also, the fluid bladder has an expansion region that is expanded due to an action from outside, and is contained at a portion of the outer circumferential surface of the measurement site that corresponds to a second half surface, in the lengthwise direction of the cuff. During inflation for blood pressure measurement, a stroke amount by which the expansion region expands is larger in the thickness direction than a stroke amount by which the first fluid bladder region swells.

A blood pressure measurement device includes a cuff and a control unit. The cuff includes a first securing portion, provided on one surface of the cuff, for securing the cuff to the measurement area in a wrapped state, and a second securing portion, provided on another surface of the cuff, for securing the cuff to the measurement area in a wrapped state. At least one of the first securing portion and the second securing portion includes an electromagnet portion. The control unit secures the cuff to the measurement area by controlling a magnetic force emitted from the electromagnet portion and causing the second securing portion to be attracted to the first securing portion.
