Abstract
A body-worn monitoring system for obtaining and evaluating data from a person includes at least one sensor carried by the person to be monitored, and an evaluation unit worn by the person to be monitored which is supplied from a signal from the sensor. The evaluation unit either independently, or in communication with a remote computer, evaluates the data and initiates the generation of a message which is communicated to the monitored person by the evaluation unit. If data which is typical of the daily behavior pattern of the person fails to arrive, the person can be reminded of the necessity of undertaking a particular activity.
