The first display unit 61 is provided at a location (remote location) away from the plurality of bedside terminals 55 . A caregiver or the like can know the state of the bed 51 connected to the plurality of bedside terminals 55 or the state of the user of the bed 51 from the display on the first display unit 61 provided at a remote location.

The first display unit 61 displays a plurality of images 61G on one screen 61D based on the plurality of bedside terminal information 55i obtained by the obtaining unit 61I. A plurality of images 61G correspond to a plurality of bedside terminals 55, respectively.

A plurality of images 61G corresponding to the plurality of bedside terminals 55 are displayed side by side on one screen 61D. As a result, the caregiver or the like can grasp the state of each user of the plurality of beds 51 efficiently and in an easy-to-understand manner. A bed system that can improve usability can be provided.

In the embodiment, for example, the state of the user of the bed 51 is detected, and notification (such as notification or warning) is provided based on the detection result. Notification includes at least one of display and sound, for example. Notification is performed by the first input/output device 60, for example. In this case, the notification about the plurality of bed apparatuses 50 is performed. On the other hand, the notification may be made by the bedside terminal 55 . In this case, one of the plurality of bedside terminals 55 notifies the user corresponding to that one bedside terminal 55 .

For example, a plurality of items are defined for the state of the user of bed 51 . The multiple items are, for example, the heartbeat of the user of the bed 51 and the breathing of the user of the bed 51 . Items may include user behavioral states (eg, getting out of bed, sleeping, awake, getting up, sitting on the edge, etc., for the user of bed 51).

Such items are measured. This measurement is performed by the bed apparatus 50 (the bed 51, the accessory device 52 of the bed 51, the measuring device 53, etc.). For example, measurement results (measurement values) may be provided to the first input/output device 60, the second display unit 62, etc. as a plurality of bedside terminal information 55i.

A setting value (management value) is determined for each of the plurality of items described above. When the measured value deviates from (exceeds) the range defined by the set value, notification is given.

This set value is defined for each of a plurality of users. The set value is determined based on, for example, the states (medical conditions, etc.) of multiple users. Setting values for a plurality of users may be set by, for example, bedside terminals 55 corresponding to each of the plurality of users.

In the embodiment, setting values for multiple users can be set (input) by the first input/output device 60 . This makes it easier to set (input) the set values than when the set values are set using the bedside terminals 55 corresponding to each of a plurality of users. A bed system that can improve usability can be provided.

That is, in the embodiment, the first input/output device 60 performs the first operation. In the first operation, the first input/output device 60 receives input of a first set value regarding the first item set for each of the plurality of bed devices 50 . At least one of the first input/output device 60 and the plurality of bed devices 50 performs an operation according to the first set value. The operation according to the first set value is, for example, notification when the measured value exceeds the range defined by the first set value. According to the embodiment, it is possible to provide a bed system that can improve ease of use.

Examples of a plurality of items and set values in the first input/output device 60 will be described below.

FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram illustrating display in the bed system according to the second embodiment.
FIG. 2 shows an example of display on the first display unit 61 of the first input/output device 60. As shown in FIG. The first display unit 61 has, for example, a viewing mode and an editing mode. FIG. 2 shows an example of a viewing mode display 61B.

View mode display 61B includes a table. In the browsing mode display 61B, a column for recognition information I1 and columns for a plurality of items (first item 31, second item 32, etc.) are provided.

The recognition information I1 specifies a user (target user) of one of the plurality of beds 51 (target bed 51). The recognition information I1 includes, for example, the target user's name. In this example, the date of birth is displayed in addition to the name of the user in the column of recognition information I1. In this example, the user's room number and the user's number in the room are displayed in the column of recognition information I1.

In this example, the column of the first item 31 includes a “heartbeat” column 31a and a “breathing” column 31b. As a column of the second item 32, a column of "getting out of bed" is provided.

For example, for "user number 01 in room 2225", cell 32B for setting values for "getting out of bed", cell 31aB for setting values for "heartbeat", and cell 31bB for setting values for "breathing" are displayed. ing. Each of these cells is surrounded by, for example, two vertical lines and two horizontal lines. Borders do not have to be displayed.

In the setting value cell 32B related to "getting out of bed", for example, a pictogram (picture of a bell and letters "ON") indicating that the notification operation is on is displayed. In addition, the display of "function: awakening 10 seconds" and the display of "weight: low (30 to 45 kg)" are displayed. The display of "Function: Awakening 10 seconds" indicates that the notification operation will be performed when the user remains awake for 10 seconds or more. For example, detection of the user's condition is performed according to the weight of the user. Appropriate detection is performed by setting (inputting) information (data) about the weight of the user. In this example, the weight of the user is set to "low (30-45 kg)".

A pictogram (a picture of a bell and the letters "ON") indicating that the notification operation is on is displayed in the cell 31aB for the setting value related to "heartbeat". In addition, a combination of an upward-pointing triangle display and a display of "110 times/minute" is displayed. The display of this combination indicates that the upper limit set value (control value) for heartbeat is "110 beats/minute". That is, when the measured heart rate exceeds 110 beats/minute, the notification action is performed. In this cell 31aB, a combination of a downward pointing triangle and "OFF" is further displayed. The display of this combination indicates that the lower limit setting value (control value) regarding heart rate is not set. For example, at least one of the upper limit setting value and the lower limit setting value may be set for at least one of the plurality of items.

In cell 31aB, the pictogram is surrounded by, for example, a yellow line (indicated by a thick line in FIG. 2). This yellow line indicates that "notification display", which will be described later, is performed when the measured value exceeds the range defined by the set value (management value).

A pictogram (a picture of a bell and the letters "ON") indicating that the notification operation is on is displayed in the cell 31bB for the setting value relating to "breathing". In addition, a combination of an upward-pointing triangle display and a display of "30 times/minute" is displayed. The display of this combination indicates that the upper limit set value (control value) for respiration is "30 times/minute". That is, when the respiratory measurements exceed 30 breaths/minute, a notification action is taken. In this cell 31bB, a combination of the display of a triangle pointing downward and the display of "8 times/minute" is displayed. The display of this combination indicates that the lower limit set value (control value) for respiration is "8 times/minute". That is, when the respiratory measurements are less than 8 breaths/minute, a notification action is taken.

In cell 31bB, the pictogram is surrounded by, for example, a red line (shown in FIG. 2 by a thicker line than the line in cell 31aB). This red line indicates that a "warning display", which will be described later, is performed when the measured value exceeds the range defined by the set value (control value).

In the example shown in FIG. 2, for "user number 01 in room 2224", setting values for "getting out of bed" and "heartbeat" are not set, but setting values for "heartbeat" are set. As described above, in one bed apparatus 50 (corresponding to one user), there are cases where one of a plurality of items is set with a set value and other items are not set with set values.

In the example shown in FIG. 2, setting values are set for users corresponding to numbers "02" to "04" in "room 2224" and users corresponding to "02" and "03" in "room 2225". It is in a state where it is not.

In this way, the "notification setting list" is displayed in the browsing mode display 61B illustrated in FIG. Further, in the browsing mode display 61B, for example, an "edit" button 61Ba (an area for accepting input) is displayed. When the button 61Ba receives an input from an input/output device (a mouse or a touch panel), the first display section 61 shifts to the edit mode.

FIG. 3 is a schematic diagram illustrating another display screen in the bed system according to the first embodiment.
FIG. 3 shows an example of an edit mode display 61E. Edit mode display 61E includes a table. The edit mode display 61E also has a column for recognition information I1 and columns for a plurality of items (first item 31, second item 32, etc.). In this example, the column of the first item 31 also includes a "heartbeat" column 31a and a "breathing" column 31b. As a column of the second item 32, a column of "getting out of bed" is provided.

For example, for "user number 01 in room 2225", cell 32E for setting values for "getting out of bed", cell 31aE for setting values for "heartbeat", and cell 31bE for setting values for "breathing" are displayed. ing.

In this example, the first input/output device 60 cannot set (input) a setting value (management value) related to "getting out of bed". A setting value (management value) related to “getting out of bed” can be set (input) in the bedside terminals 55 of the plurality of bed apparatuses 50 .

On the other hand, a setting value related to “getting out of bed” and a setting value related to “breathing” can be set (input) by the first input/output device 60 .

In the setting value cell 31aE related to "heartbeat", a "threshold change" button 34 (an area for receiving an input) is provided. For example, when this button 34 receives an input from an input/output device (mouse, touch panel, etc.), the set value (threshold value) relating to "heartbeat" is in an edit state in cell 31aE. For example, for "heartbeat", the color of the display of "121 beats/minute" changes. For example, the color becomes red. Alternatively, the display may be "blinking display" or "inverted display". In the edit state, when the up triangular button accepts input, the heartbeat number increases. In the edit state, when the down triangle button accepts input, the number for the heart rate will drop. For example, a cursor may be displayed at the position of "121 times/minute", and a "value" may be entered using a keyboard or the like.

For example, when the heartbeat upper limit set value (threshold value) reaches a desired value, the "threshold change" button 34 is pressed to change the heartbeat lower limit set value (threshold value) into an edit state. Become. After the lower limit set value (threshold value) of the heartbeat is set to a desired value, the "change threshold value" button 34 is pressed to complete the setting (input) of the set value related to "heartbeat". .

A "change threshold" button 34 (area for accepting input) is also provided in the cell 31bE for the setting value relating to "breathing". By pressing the "change threshold" button 34, the set value relating to "breathing" is put into an edit state. Similarly, a set value (at least one of the upper limit and the lower limit) related to "breathing" is set (input). Then, the "threshold change" button 34 further accepts an input, and the editing (setting or input) of the set value relating to "breathing" is completed.

In the edit mode display 61E illustrated in FIG. 3, a "cancel" button 61Ea (input receiving area) and a "confirm" button 61Eb (input receiving area) are displayed. When the "cancel" button 61Ea receives an input from an input/output device (mouse, touch panel, etc.), the edited (input) setting value is canceled and returns to its original state. When the "confirm" button 61Eb receives an input from an input/output device (mouse, touch panel, etc.), for example, the display shifts to the browsing mode display 61B. Edited (set or input) setting values can be confirmed in the viewing mode display 61B.

The viewing mode display 61B and the editing mode display 61E exemplified in FIGS. 2 and 3 display an end button 61e (area for accepting input). For example, when the end button 61e receives an input from an input/output device (mouse, touch panel, etc.), the first display unit 61 returns to another screen (eg, home screen, notification display screen, etc.). Examples of other screens will be described later.

As described above, in this example, the first input/output device 60 does not accept the input of the second set value for the second item 32 ("get out of bed" in this example). The input of the second setting value for the second item 32 is performed in each of the plurality of bed apparatuses 50 (for example, the plurality of bedside terminals 55). The second item 32 is set while observing the state of the user or the state of the bed 51, for example. As a result, the second set value can be set more appropriately. On the other hand, even if the first setting value related to the first item 31 is set (inputted) by the first input/output device 60 provided at a location away from the plurality of bed apparatuses 50, it is possible to perform appropriate setting. Due to such differences, the first item 31 and the second item 32 may be distinguished.

For example, the bedside terminal 55 (bed input/output unit) inputs the first set value of the first item 31 of one of the plurality of bed apparatuses 50, and the input of the second item 32 of the one of the plurality of bed apparatuses 50. An input of a second setting value can be accepted. The first input/output device 60 can receive input of the first set value of the first item 31 for the plurality of bed devices 50 . The first input/output device 60 does not accept input of the second set value of the second item 32 for the plurality of bed devices 50 . Alternatively, as will be described later, the first input/output device 60 can accept inputs of second set values of the second item 32 for a plurality of bed devices 50, but the operation based on the accepted second set values is It is not performed before the conditions described below are obtained.

Since the first setting value of the first item 31 for the plurality of bed apparatuses 50 can be set (input) by the first input/output device 60, an easy-to-use bed system can be obtained. Furthermore, the second item 32, which is preferably set near each of the plurality of bed apparatuses 50, cannot be set by the first input/output device 60, or an operation in which the input value is used as it is is not performed. , the user can be provided with better medical or nursing care.

In an embodiment, the first item 31 relates to the heartbeat of the user of the bed 51 and/or the breathing of the user. The user's heartbeat and the user's breathing are obtained from the bed 51 or an accessory 52 of the bed 51 .

On the other hand, the second item 32 relates to user behavior information regarding the user of the bed 51, including at least one of getting out of bed, sleeping, waking, getting up, and sitting on the edge.

As described above, the input of the first setting value of the first item 31 is performed by each of the plurality of bed apparatuses 50 (the plurality of bedside terminals 55). Then, the input of the first set value of the first item 31 is also performed through the first input/output device 60 . In this case, settings may be made on multiple terminals at the same time, and collisions may occur.

In the embodiment, in such a case, the first input/output device 60 or the plurality of bedside terminals 55 (bed input/output unit) is notified that the first set value is being input by another input/output device. may be displayed. Alternatively, while the first input/output device 60 is performing the first operation (accepting input of the first set value for the first item 31), the bedside terminal 55 (bed input/output unit) performs another setting for the first item 31. Upon receiving the value input, at least one of the first input/output device 60 and the plurality of bed devices 50 performs an operation (notification or warning) according to the other set value. This avoids collisions, for example.

As an operation according to the set value, for example, notification display or warning display, which will be described later, is performed. As an operation according to the setting value, for example, a notification sound or a warning sound may be generated. The operation according to the set value is, for example, a range defined by a management value (threshold value) such as a first set value for the first item 31 and a second set value for the second item 32, and a measurement for these items. This is done based on the result of the comparison between the value and An example of the operation according to the setting value will be described later.

(Second embodiment)
In this embodiment, the first input/output device 60 receives input of the second set value. The configuration of the bed system according to the first embodiment is applied to the configuration of the bed system according to this embodiment. The browsing mode display 61B in this embodiment is similar to the browsing mode display 61B according to the first embodiment, for example. The edit mode display 61E in this embodiment differs from, for example, the edit mode display 61E according to the first embodiment. An example of the edit mode display 61E in this embodiment will be described below.

FIG. 4 is a schematic diagram illustrating a display screen of the bed system according to the second embodiment.
FIG. 4 shows an example of an edit mode display 61E according to this embodiment. Also in this example, the edit mode display 61E is provided with a column of recognition information I1 and columns of a plurality of items (first item 31, second item 32, etc.). The column of the first item 31 includes a “heartbeat” column 31a and a “breathing” column 31b. As a column of the second item 32, a column of "getting out of bed" is provided. The setting value cell 31aE for "heartbeat" and the setting value cell 31bE for "breathing" in the present embodiment are the same as those in the first embodiment (see FIG. 3). The setting value cell 32E for "getting out of bed" in this embodiment differs from that in the first embodiment (see FIG. 3).

As shown in FIG. 4, in a setting value cell 32E related to "getting out of bed", a "change threshold" button 34 (an area for receiving an input) is provided. For example, when this button 34 receives an input from an input/output device (mouse, touch panel, etc.), the set value (threshold value) relating to "getting out of bed" is in an edit state in cell 32E.

For example, it is possible to input the duration of the "awake" state when determining "getting out of bed". For example, in the edit state, if the up triangle button accepts input, the duration increases. In the edit state, when the down triangle button accepts input, the duration decreases. For example, a cursor may be displayed at a position between "awakening" and "seconds", and a keyboard or the like may be used to input a "value" related to the duration.

As shown in FIG. 4, for example, the user's "weight" can be input when "getting out of bed" is detected. For example, in the edit state, if the upward triangular button receives an input, "Increase weight." In the edit state, if the downward triangular button receives an input, the "weight" decreases. For example, a cursor may be displayed at a position between "weight" and "kg", and a "value" related to weight may be entered using a keyboard or the like.

For example, in the setting value cell 32E for "getting out of bed", the "change threshold value" button 34 further receives an input, and editing (setting or inputting) of the setting value related to "getting out of bed" is completed.

Thus, in the present embodiment, the second setting value for the second item 32 can be input from the first display section 61 of the first input/output device 60 .

Thus, the first input/output device 60 can perform the second operation in addition to the first operation described above. In the second operation, the first input/output device 60 performs a non-accepting operation or an accepting operation. In the non-accepting operation, the first input/output device 60 does not accept the input of the second set value regarding the second item 32 set for each of the plurality of bed apparatuses 50 (first embodiment). As already described, even when the first input/output device 60 performs a non-receiving operation, the first input/output device 60 is set in at least one of the plurality of bed devices 50 in the viewing mode display 61B, for example. The second setting value that is set can be displayed.

On the other hand, in the receiving operation, the first input/output device 60 receives input of the second set value (second embodiment). When performing the acceptance operation, the inputted second setting value is not used as it is, and a confirmation operation is performed. For example, at least one of the first input/output device 60 and the plurality of bed devices 50 responds to the second setting value when at least one of the plurality of bed devices 50 accepts approval of the second setting value after the acceptance operation. take action (such as notification or warning). Also when the first input/output device 60 performs the reception operation, for example, the first input/output device 60 displays the second set value set in at least one of the plurality of bed devices 50 in the viewing mode display 61B. can be displayed.

For example, the second item 32 is the parameter that is ultimately desired to be checked at the bedside. Such parameters, which are desired to be finally confirmed at the bedside, can be viewed, for example, at a remote location, and setting (input) is prohibited (first embodiment). Alternatively, if a parameter that should be finally confirmed at the bedside is edited (or entered) at a remote location, is the value obtained at the bedside and used instead of being used immediately? A caregiver or the like is required to make a decision (approval) (second embodiment).

An example of approval of the second set value will be described below. For example, in the edit mode display 61E illustrated in FIG. 4, the "confirm" button 61Eb accepts the input, and the edit in the first input/output device 60 ends. After that, for example, a message or the like is displayed on the screen of one bedside terminal 55 of the plurality of bed apparatuses 50 . The second setting value corresponding to this one of the plurality of bed devices 50 is edited (set or input) by the first input/output device 60 .

FIG. 5 is a schematic diagram illustrating a display screen of the bed system according to the second embodiment.
FIG. 5 shows an example of a message 50DM displayed on the display unit 50D of the bedside terminal 55 (bed apparatus 50) after the edit mode display 61E according to this embodiment.

As shown in FIG. 5, for example, "Please log in" and "Your settings will be reflected" are displayed as a message 50DM. In this way, when the first input/output device 60 performs the acceptance operation (accepting the input of the setting value of the second setting item), at least one of the plurality of bed devices 50 is set to the second setting value. A notification (for example, display of message 50DM or the like) prompting the user to approve the performance of the corresponding action is provided. This notification may be made, for example, by sound (including voice).

With the notification prompting approval, the caregiver of the user of the bed 51 confirms the state of the bed 51 and the state of the user, and performs an operation (for example, notification or warning) using the second set value. approve. By avoiding an operation in which the input value is used as it is, it is possible to provide the user with more appropriate medical care or nursing care.

In this embodiment, prior to approval, a notification may be provided indicating that no action (such as notification or warning) will be performed in accordance with the second set value. For example, in one example, the first input/output device 60 may notify "before approval of the second set value" in the acceptance operation (for example, edit mode display 61E). This notification is displayed by, for example, the color (and flashing state) of the cell 32E of the setting value related to "getting out of bed" being different from the color (and flashing state) of other cells (cell 31aE, cell 31bE, etc.). may include. This notification may include, for example, providing a message (display, sound, or the like) when editing of the setting value cell 32E related to "getting out of bed" is completed. For example, in one example, the first input/output device 60 may notify, for example, in the viewing mode display 61B that "the second set value has not been approved". Such a notification makes it clear that "before receiving approval for the second set value". As a result, ease of use can be further improved.

For example, according to the edit mode display 61E illustrated in FIG. 3 or 4, the first set value of the first item 31 and the second set value of the second item 32 are set by a plurality of bed apparatuses 50 (a plurality of users). About

At this time, if there is a bed device that is not connected to the first input/output device 60, information on the bed device that is not connected is not displayed on the first display section 61 of the first input/output device 60. can be For example, bed system 110 may include another bed device that is not connected to first input/output device 60 . Another bed apparatus is, for example, a bed apparatus including a bedside terminal 55C. This bedside terminal 55C has not yet been connected to the first input/output device 60 . In this case, the first input/output device 60 may display information about a plurality of bed devices 50 on one screen and not display information about another bed device on this one screen.

For example, when there is a bed device that is not connected to the first input/output device 60, a display that is easier to see than when displaying information about the bed device can be obtained.

For example, when displaying information about a plurality of bed apparatuses 50, the plurality of setting information (first set value, second set value, etc.) are displayed in one small area. At this time, the display can be made easier to see by hiding the information about the unconnected bed devices.

In the embodiment, when the setting value of the first item 31 is input, a reference range may be defined for the input value. This reference range is defined, for example, in a facility where a plurality of bed apparatuses 50 are provided. For example, if the entered value is outside this reference range, the entered value may be erroneous. By notifying when the input value is out of this reference range, the input person (for example, a caregiver, etc.) is likely to notice the error.

For example, in the edit mode display 61E illustrated in FIG. 3, for example, if the value set (input) in the cell 31aE of the setting value related to "heartbeat" exceeds the defined range, the cell 31aE or the cell 31aE part of (such as a number that exceeds the range) flashes. Alternatively, the color of the cell 31aE or part of the cell 31aE changes, which makes it easy to see that the input value is out of the reference range. If the entered value is incorrect, the error is easily noticed.

In this way, the first input/output device 60 notifies when at least one of the first set value of the first item 31 and the second set value of the second item 32 exceeds the reference range. good. As a result, ease of use can be further improved.

In the above-described first and second embodiments, the first input/output device 60 obtains measured values (for example, multiple bedside terminal information 55i illustrated in FIG. 1) from multiple bed devices 50 . Then, as an operation according to the set value, notification is performed. For example, from one of the plurality of bed apparatuses 50 in which the first set value of the first item 31 is set, the first measured value (at least part of one of the plurality of bedside terminal information 55i) regarding the first item 31 to obtain. In this case, the operation according to the first set value includes providing notification when the measured value exceeds the range defined by the first set value. For example, from one of the plurality of bed apparatuses 50 in which the second set value of the second item 32 is set, a second measured value for the second item 32 (another part of one of the plurality of bedside terminal information 55i ). In this case, the operation according to the second set value includes providing notification when the measured value exceeds the range defined by the second set value. This notification includes, for example, at least one of notification and warning. This notification includes, for example, at least one of display and sound. Notification is performed by the first input/output device 60 . The notification may be made on the second display unit 62 (for example, mobile terminal). The notification may be made by the bedside terminal 55 of each of the plurality of bed apparatuses 50 .

An example of notification performed by the first input/output device 60 will be described below.
FIG. 6 is a schematic diagram illustrating a screen of the bed system according to the embodiment.
FIG. 6 shows an example of a screen 61D of the first display section 61. As shown in FIG. As shown in FIG. 6, a plurality of images 61G are displayed side by side on one screen 61D. In this example, a message is displayed in the message area 61M. For example, the message may be, for example, a communication state error.

One of the multiple images 61G includes a first partial area R1, a second partial area R2 and a third partial area R3. In this example, an outer edge partial region R4 is further provided. The outer edge partial region R4 is provided around the first partial region R1, the second partial region R2 and the third partial region R3. A plurality of images 61G are displayed in the background area R5 of one screen 61D. The boundary between the background region R5 and the image 61G is made clear by the outer edge partial region R4.

For example, the background region R5 is white, for example. The outer edge partial region R4 is, for example, a pale color (pale blue, etc.).

At least part of the second partial region R2 is located between the first partial region R1 and the third partial region R3. For example, the third partial region R3 is located around the first partial region R1 and the second partial region R2. The third partial region R3 is, for example, frame-shaped.

One of the multiple images 61G corresponds to one of the multiple bedside terminals 55 (target bedside terminal 55). That is, one of the plurality of images 61G corresponds to one of the plurality of bedside terminal information 55i. The target bedside terminal 55 corresponds to one bed 51 (target bed 51) and one user (target user). Accordingly, one of the plurality of images 61G corresponds to the target bed 51 and the target user. One of the plurality of images 61G will be described below.

The first display unit 61 displays, for example, a pictogram in the first partial area R1. The first display portion 61 displays recognition information I1 that identifies the user on at least part of the second partial region R2. The first display portion 61 displays a warning display 30A in the third partial region R3. These examples are described below.

A pictogram is displayed in the first partial region R1. The pictogram includes status indications corresponding to status information (at least one of bed status information and user status information). The pictogram includes, for example, bed movable part information 51i. As already explained, the bed movable part information 51 i includes information on at least one of the height and angle of one of the multiple beds 51 . For example, the pictogram includes a pattern (including letters) corresponding to the height of the bed 51 of interest. For example, the pictogram includes patterns (including letters) corresponding to the angles of the bed 51 of interest. Pictograms contain user status information (eg, vital sign information and user behavior information). Pictograms are at least part of the state information.

Recognition information I1 is displayed in the second partial region R2. In this example, vital sign information I2 is further displayed in the second partial region R2. The recognition information I1 specifies a user (target user) of one of the plurality of beds 51 (target bed 51). The recognition information I1 includes, for example, the target user's name. The vital sign information I2 includes information about the target user's vital signs. The vital sign information I2 includes information on at least one of the target user's blood pressure, blood oxygen saturation, blood sugar level, heart rate, pulse rate, respiration rate, weight, and body temperature.

For example, the recognition information I1 includes character information (characters of a name, etc.). The vital sign information I2 is displayed in different colors. That is, the color of the area other than the recognition information I1 in the second partial area R2 is changed based on the target user's vital signs. In this way, the vital signs information I2 may be displayed in different colors around the recognition information I1. This makes it easier to recognize the condition (vital signs) of the target user while maintaining good visibility of the recognition information I1. An example of color display of the vital sign information I2 will be described later.

Thus, the first display unit 61 displays the recognition information I1 and the vital signs information I2 in the second partial region R2. Vital sign information I2 is at least part of the status information.

On the other hand, a warning display 30A is displayed in the third partial region R3. The warning display 30A is performed under specific conditions. When the status information is abnormal, the warning display 30A is displayed in one third partial region R3 of the multiple images 61G. For example, the first display unit 61 performs the warning display 30A when at least one of the target user's getting out of bed, the target user's heartbeat, and the target user's breathing is in an abnormal state. The first display unit 61 may display the warning display 30A in the third partial region R3 when the bed state information is abnormal.

A criterion (threshold value) for determining whether the condition is abnormal may be determined according to, for example, the condition (such as the condition) of the target user. For example, for a user who has difficulty walking alone, when the bed 51 or the attached device 52 detects that the user is out of bed, there is a possibility of a serious accident such as the user falling from the bed 51 . In such cases, prompt action is required. In such a case, when the bed leaving state is detected, the warning display 30A is performed. On the other hand, for users who can easily walk by themselves, the possibility of a serious accident occurring even if getting out of bed is detected is relatively low. In such a case, the warning display 30A may not be performed even if the bed leaving state is detected.

The criterion for determining whether the condition is abnormal may be determined based on, for example, a combination of the condition of the target user and the condition of the bed 51 . For a user who has difficulty walking by himself/herself, there is a possibility that the user has fallen from the high bed 51 when the bed 51 is high and the bed leaving state is detected. In such a case, warning display 30A is performed.

For example, heartbeat and respiration information is continuously detected by the accessory 52 (or bed 51) or the like. This accumulates information about the target user's regular heartbeat and respiration. A warning display 30A is provided if significant changes to the steady heart rate and respiration are observed. If the degree of change is moderate, a notification display 30N described below may be performed.

In this example, a notification display 30N is displayed in the third partial region R3. For example, the first display unit 61 may further perform the notification display 30N when at least one of the target user's heartbeat and the target user's breathing changes beyond a reference.

For example, the target user's heartbeat and the target user's respiration may be monitored by the target bed 51 (one of the beds) or the attachment 52 of the target bed 51 (one of the beds). obtained from As already explained, the accessory 52 may be considered part of the bed 51 .

The target user's heartbeat and the target user's breathing are continuously detected. When the continuously detected heartbeat or respiration changes beyond the standard (when there is an event), the user's condition may be deteriorating. When there is such a sign of deterioration, performing the notification display 30N enables more prompt and appropriate facing.

A criterion for performing the notification display 30N is determined, for example, according to the condition of the target user. As a criterion (threshold value) for determining whether or not to perform the notification display 30N, for example, a criterion that is looser than the criterion for performing the warning display 30A is adopted. For example, a nurse or the like gives priority to a user displaying the warning display 30A over a user displaying the notification display 30N.

By performing the warning display 30A, it is possible to make a nurse or the like easily recognize the user (care receiver) with the highest priority. Further, by performing the notification display 30N, it is possible to make the caregiver or the like easily recognize the user (care recipient) having the second highest priority. This can improve the quality of medical or nursing care, for example.

In this example, one screen 61D is provided with a window area 61H. At least part of the information about one of the users is displayed in the window area 61H, for example. In this example, information about temperature, blood pressure (systolic and diastolic), heart rate (pulse), respiration, SpO ₂ and blood glucose is displayed. For example, by clicking (touching) one of the plurality of images 61G, information about the target user corresponding to the image 61G is displayed in the window area 61H.

In this way, when one of the multiple images 61G receives an input, the first display unit 61 may display information corresponding to that one of the multiple images 61G. This information is, for example, at least part of the information about the target user corresponding to the image 61G. The information corresponding to that one of the plurality of images 61G may be displayed, for example, in a portion of one screen 61D (for example, window area 61H). By providing the window area 61H on the same screen 61D, for example, even when the caregiver or the like is looking at the information displayed on the window area 61H, the warning display 30A can be presented to the nurse or the like. It is possible to prevent the warning display 30A from being overlooked.

In embodiments, the window area 61H may be provided on another screen. For example, when one of the plurality of images 61G receives an input, one screen 61D may be switched to another screen. In this case, another screen can be used to display detailed information about the target user.

FIGS. 7A to 7C are schematic diagrams illustrating images in the bed system according to the embodiment.
FIG. 7(a) shows a state in which no information is displayed in the third partial region R3. FIG. 7B shows a state in which the notification display 30N is displayed in the third partial area R3. FIG. 7(c) shows a state where the warning display 30A is displayed in the third partial area R3.

As shown in FIG. 7A, when no information is displayed in the third partial region R3, the state of the third partial region R3 is the same as the state of at least part of the second partial region R2. For example, the color of the third partial region R3 is the same as the color of the vital sign information I2 of the second partial region R2.

The recognizability of the notification display 30N shown in FIG. 7B is, for example, higher than the recognizability of the vital sign information I2 of the second partial region R2. The color of the notification display 30N is dark red, for example. On the other hand, the vital sign information I2 is displayed in a pale color (for example, pale pink, pale yellow, pale green, or pale blue). The notification display 30N can be easily recognized.

The alertness (recognizability) of the warning display 30A shown in FIG. 7C is, for example, higher than the alertness (recognizability) of the notification display 30N. For example, the warning display 30A may include blinking. On the other hand, the notification display 30N does not blink. For example, the warning display 30A includes a special shape pattern 30Aa. This special shape pattern 30Aa is not provided in the notification display 30N. In this example, the special shape pattern 30Aa displays a "bell" shape. Due to the special shape pattern 30Aa, the area of the warning display 30A is larger than the area of the notification display 30N. Thus, for example, the warning display 30A has at least one of an area larger than that of the notification display 30N and a pattern different from the pattern included in the notification display 30N. Accordingly, the alertness of the warning display 30A is higher than that of the notification display 30N.

The color of the warning display 30A may differ from the color of the notification display 30N. For example, warning indicator 30A has a dark red color. The notification display 30N may have a lighter red color than the color of the warning display 30A. For example, the saturation of the warning display 30A is higher than the saturation of the notification display 30N.

As shown in FIG. 7(c), the area where the special shape pattern 30Aa, which is part of the warning display 30A, is displayed is regarded as part of the third partial area R3. As shown in FIGS. 7A and 7B, when the warning display 30A is not displayed, this portion of the third partial region R3 is at least part of the second partial region R2. are the same. For example, the color of this portion of the third partial region R3 is the same as the color of the vital sign information I2 of the second partial region R2.

An example of the bedside terminal according to the embodiment will be described below.
FIG. 8 is a schematic diagram illustrating information in the bed system according to the embodiment;
As shown in FIG. 8, as user information I0 (for example, user information record), for example, recognition information I1 (user recognition information) specifying the user of the bed and recognition information specifying the bed input/output unit (bedside terminal identification information IB1). Recognition information I1 (user recognition information) identifying the user of the bed is associated with recognition information (bedside terminal recognition information IB1) identifying the bed input/output unit.

In this example, attribute information IC1 is further provided as user information I0. The attribute information IC1 is information about the user. The attribute information IC1 includes, for example, the user's sex, the user's age, and the user's address (or contact information). Attribute information IC1 is associated with, for example, bedside terminal recognition information IB1.

Information such as that illustrated in FIG. 8 is stored, for example, in a storage unit provided in the bed system.

In the bed system 110 (see, for example, FIG. 1) according to the embodiment, a plurality of bed devices 50 and a memory are provided. The storage unit may be provided at any location. An example of the storage unit will be described later.

As already explained, one (each) of the plurality of bed apparatuses 50 includes a bed 51 and a bed input/output unit (eg, bedside terminal 55). The bed input/output section is connected to the bed 51 . The bed input/output unit is separate from the bed 51 . The bed input/output unit is provided separately from the bed 51 (or parts included in the bed 51 (side rails, frames, etc.)). Since the bedside terminal 55 is separate from the bed 51, for example, the combination of the bedside terminal 55 and the bed 51 can be changed. This makes it easier to deal with various situations. Ease of use can be improved. For example, as will be described later, when the user of the bed 51 moves from one room to another, even if the user's bedside terminal 55 is moved from the room before movement to the room after movement, good.

A bed input/output (eg, bedside terminal 55) can obtain status information. The state information includes, for example, at least one of bed state information regarding the bed 51 and user state information regarding the state of the user of the bed 51 . The bed state information includes bed movable part information. The bed movable part information is information about at least one of the height and angle of the bed 51 . The user condition information includes at least one of the user's vital signs information and the user's user behavior information. The vital sign information includes information on at least one of blood pressure, blood oxygen saturation, blood sugar level, heart rate, pulse rate, respiration rate, weight and body temperature of the user. The user behavior information includes information regarding at least one of getting out of bed, sleeping, waking, getting up, and sitting on the edge of the user. The status information includes, for example, measurement information 53 i obtained by the measuring instrument 53 . State information includes user behavior information 52 i obtained by accessory 52 or bed 51 .

The storage unit stores at least part of the state information obtained by the bed input/output unit (for example, the bedside terminal 55) as recognition information I1 that identifies the user, and recognition information that identifies the bed input/output unit (bedside terminal It is stored in association with at least one of the recognition information IB1).

Thus, in the embodiment, information about the bed 51 and information about the user of the bed 51 are collected in the bedside terminal 55, for example. The aggregated information is supplied to the server 65, the electronic medical chart storage unit 66, the first input/output device 60, the mobile terminal including the second display unit 62, or the like. The aggregated information may be stored in the server 65, the electronic medical chart storage unit 66, the first input/output device 60, or the storage unit provided in the mobile terminal including the second display unit 62 or the like. The aggregated information may be stored in a storage unit provided in the bedside terminal 55 .

In this way, by aggregating the information (bed information and user information) about one bed 51, for example, even when the combination of one bed 51 and the user of the bed 51 is changed, , can easily change the association of information (data).

For example, a general nurse call system does not have a function of updating user information. Therefore, for example, when there is a change in the combination of the bed 51 and the user of the bed 51, there is a delay in changing the relationship (for example, linking) between the bed 51 and the user. There is For example, any delay in changing the relationship between the bed 51 and the occupant may result in erroneous recording of measured occupant condition information.

On the other hand, in the embodiment, at least part of the state information obtained by the bed input/output unit (for example, the bedside terminal 55) is combined with the recognition information I1 that identifies the user and the bed input/output unit that identifies the bed input/output unit. Recognition information (bedside terminal recognition information IB1) is stored in association with at least one of them. This allows the measured user condition information to be stored with correct association.

In the embodiment, the bedside terminal 55 displays the user's recognition information I1 and the bedside terminal recognition information IB1, so that the user can easily recognize whether or not the association between the two is correct.

FIG. 9 is a schematic diagram illustrating a display of the bed system according to the embodiment;
FIG. 9 is an example of a display screen of a bed input/output unit (for example, bedside terminal 55). FIG. 89 shows an example of the message 50DMA displayed on the display section 50D of the bedside terminal 55. FIG. As shown in FIG. 9, the bed input/output unit can display recognition information I1 identifying the user and recognition information (bedside terminal recognition information IB1) identifying the bed input/output unit. As a result, the user corresponding to the bed input/output unit (bedside terminal 55) can easily recognize whether or not it is correct. And if there is an error in this relationship, it can be corrected.

For example, the bed input/output unit performs an operation prompting approval of the correspondence relationship between the recognition information I1 identifying the user and the recognition information (bedside terminal recognition information IB1) identifying the bed input/output unit. . In this case, a display (“Register” button) prompting approval of the correspondence relationship is displayed. When an input is made to the "Register" button, the displayed correspondence is stored. If it is desired to correct the correspondence relationship, for example, an input is made to the "correction" button. In this case, for example, a correction screen is displayed and corrections are made. Alternatively, notification to the administrator of the bedside system is performed. As a result, data (information) is exchanged based on the correct correspondence.

Thus, in the embodiment, for example, user information is newly acquired, and the user information is linked to information specifying the bedside terminal 55 . Then, the bedside terminal 55 prompts the staff to approve the linking. For example, even if there is a difference in facing relationship between the acquired user state information and the actual user of the bed 51, it can be corrected correctly.

After approval, the user information (sensor information, input information, etc.) acquired by the bedside terminal 55 is stored in association with the recognized user's recognition information I1. For example, the approved data is supplied to the electronic chart storage unit 66 or the like.

Such a bed input/output unit (for example, the bedside terminal 55) can provide a bed system that can improve ease of use.

An example of changing the settings of the bedside terminal 55 when the user of the bed 51 moves from one room to another will be described below. For example, the bedside terminal 55 can change the recognition information of the room before movement to the recognition information of the room after movement. As already explained, the recognition information I1 identifying the user is associated with the recognition information (bedside terminal identification information IB1) identifying the bed input/output unit (for example, the bedside terminal 55). For example, by changing the room recognition information regarding the bedside terminal 55, the movement of the user's room is stored (set) as information.

FIGS. 10(a) to 10(d), 11(a) to 11(d), and 12 are schematic diagrams illustrating displays in the bed system according to the embodiment.
These figures illustrate the display of the display unit 50D of the bedside terminal 55 when the settings of the bedside terminal 55 are changed. In this example, the user of bed 51 moves from room "2201" to room "0501".
