The present invention provides a method for predicting the user vital signs, which may predict future vital sign signal values from vital sign signals (or biometric signals) measured from a patient, such as the blood pressure, pulse rate, body temperature, respiratory rate, oxygen saturation, etc., and inform the medical professional or patient of the predicted results. The method includes the steps of: measuring vital sign data of a user by measuring equipment; preprocessing, by a preprocessing unit executed by a processor, the measured vital sign data; and, by a machine learning model executed by the processor, predicting the future vital sign data based on the preprocessed vital sign data. 본 발명은 혈압, 맥박수, 체온, 호흡률, 산소포화도 등과 같은 환자로부터 측정된 활력 징후 신호(또는 생체 신호)로부터 미래의 활력 징후 신호 값들을 예측하고, 그 예측 결과를 의료인 또는 환자에게 알려주는데 특징이 있다.
