Description

Sample testing device

Technical Field

The application relates to the technical field of sample detection, in particular to sample detection equipment.

Background

For sample detection equipment such as blood detection, under a manual sample loading scene, when a user processes scattered samples and needs to frequently switch a measurement mode, most of the existing products need to interact through a computer (PC) end or an instrument end screen interface. Under the condition of unidirectional auditing software (LIS), a rapid sample loading interaction mode is lacked. Especially for some high-end models, the more the number of the carried measurement parameters is, the more the measurement mode is set by clicking a mouse on a matched PC interface, which is very inconvenient. Or even if an instrument end touches the screen, an interaction scheme aiming at the scene is lacked; furthermore, instrument-side touch screens are typically in a high position and are not suitable for sitting operation.

Generally, the PC side screen adopts an interactive mode of setting a measurement mode by clicking a mouse for multiple times, and cannot meet the requirement of a user on quickly switching the mode; the interaction level and the click frequency of the touch screen of the instrument end are large, so that the requirement of a user for rapidly switching the modes cannot be met; the position of the screen of the instrument touch screen is high, so that the instrument touch screen is not suitable for sitting posture operation.

Detailed Description

In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present application more apparent, exemplary embodiments according to the present application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present application and not all embodiments of the present application, and that the present application is not limited by the example embodiments described herein. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments of the application described in the application without inventive step, shall fall within the scope of protection of the application.

First, a sample detection apparatus according to an embodiment of the present application is described with reference to fig. 1. FIG. 1 shows a schematic block diagram of a sample testing device 100 according to one embodiment of the present application. As shown in fig. 1, the sample testing device 100 may include the following structure: at least one blood test module 110, each blood test module 110 being adapted to perform at least one measurement mode required for performing an assay on a blood sample; a controller 120 for controlling the blood detection module 110 to perform measurement on the blood sample; a measurement mode selection module 130 including a plurality of keys communicatively coupled to the controller 120, each key corresponding to a measurement mode, each key capable of being activated with another one or more keys of the plurality of keys to select a combined measurement mode, each key capable of generating a signal when activated, the controller 120 controlling the blood detection module 110 to perform the corresponding combined measurement mode in response to a combination of signals generated when at least two keys are activated; a display screen 140 for displaying at least the currently selected combination measurement mode and/or the measurement result corresponding to the combination measurement mode; wherein the measurement mode selection module 130 is disposed in an area independent of the display screen 140.

In an embodiment of the present application, the sample detection apparatus 100 has a measurement mode selection module 130 for interacting with a user, such that the user selects a measurement mode, and the measurement mode selection module 130 is disposed in an area independent of the display screen 140, i.e., the sample detection apparatus 100 does not interact with the user via the display screen 140, such that the user selects the measurement mode, thereby providing a possibility to solve the problem that the instrument-side (sample detection apparatus 100) display screen 140 is generally high and is not suitable for sitting posture operation. In addition, the measurement mode selection module 130 includes a plurality of keys, each key corresponds to a measurement mode, and each key can be triggered together with other one or more keys of the plurality of keys to select a combined measurement mode, so that a user can quickly implement the combined measurement mode by simply selecting two or more keys, and the requirement of the user for quickly switching the modes can be met without the trouble of multiple interaction levels. Further, since each key corresponds to one measurement mode and each key can be activated together with other one or more keys among the plurality of keys to select a combined measurement mode, a user is allowed to freely and flexibly select various combinations of measurement modes, thereby being able to satisfy various clinical requirements.

The following describes an implementation of the measurement mode selection module 130 by way of example.

In one embodiment, the device 100 may further include a housing (not shown), and the display screen 140 and the measurement mode selection module 130 may each be disposed in different regions on the housing. In this embodiment, the measurement mode selection module 130 is a structure disposed on the device housing, such as implemented as a touch key panel or a push type mechanical feedback key panel. In one example, the measurement mode selection module 140 can be disposed on the housing at a position suitable for sitting operation of the user, which can conveniently enable the user to quickly select various combined measurement modes while sitting near the device.

In another embodiment, the apparatus 100 further comprises a housing (not shown), and the measurement mode selection module 130 may be a retractable structure disposed in a receiving cavity enclosed by the housing, wherein when the apparatus 100 is opened, the measurement mode selection module 130 extends from the receiving cavity for user selection, and when the apparatus 100 is closed, the measurement mode selection module 130 retracts into the receiving cavity. In this embodiment, the measurement mode selection module 130 is a structure (such as a touch button panel pressing type mechanical feedback button panel) disposed in the device housing and capable of extending and retracting along with the device switch, which not only facilitates various freely combined selections of the measurement modes, but also better protects the measurement mode selection module 130 because it is retracted into the receiving cavity when not in use, and reduces the possibility of being damaged by an unintentional collision.

In yet another embodiment, the measurement mode selection module 130 may be implemented as a remote control module, and the controller 120 may be configured to control the apparatus to switch to the corresponding measurement mode in response to a wireless signal generated when a key is triggered. In this embodiment, the measurement module selection module 130 is implemented as a remote control module that communicates with the controller 120 wirelessly, and the remote control module may be fixed on the device 100 or may be independent of the device 100, so that the user may select the measurement mode in a remote and freely combined manner, which is more convenient.

The measurement mode selection module 130 is exemplarily described below with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 2 illustrates a schematic diagram of one example of a measurement mode selection module of a sample detection device according to one embodiment of the present application. As shown in fig. 2, the measurement mode selection module includes 5 buttons of measurement modules corresponding to a reticulocyte count (RET) measurement mode, a differential blood Count (CD) measurement mode, a C-reactive protein (CRP) measurement mode, a Serum Amyloid A (SAA) measurement mode, and an Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate (ESR) measurement mode, respectively. It should be understood that the number and type of measurement modes shown in fig. 2 are exemplary. In the example shown in fig. 2, the measurement mode selection module provides 5 measurement modes, each corresponding to 5 keys, each of which can be individually triggered to select the measurement mode corresponding to the key; each of these keys can also be activated along with one or more of the remaining keys to select a combination measurement mode.

In the embodiment of the application, each key surface or the vicinity of the key in the measurement mode selection module may be provided with an identification symbol indicating the measurement mode corresponding to the key. For example, as shown in fig. 2, RET, CD, CRP, SAA, and ESR are identifiers of the measurement mode corresponding to each key. This enables the user to be more clearly aware when making the measurement mode selection. Of course, in some examples, these identification symbols may also be absent, e.g. keys at different positions correspond to particular known measurement patterns.

In one embodiment of the present application, the measurement mode selection module may further include an indicator light and a driving circuit for driving the indicator light, each of a plurality of keys of the measurement mode selection module may be configured with the indicator light, the indicator light corresponding to each key may be disposed near or integrated with the key, and when the key is activated, the driving circuit drives the corresponding indicator light to illuminate, change brightness, or change color to be distinguished from an inactivated state. For example, as shown in fig. 2, the 5 measurement modes corresponding to the current 5 keys are all in an inactive (i.e., not activated, not selected) state, so that the indicator light of each key is in an unlit state.

In another embodiment of the present application, the measurement mode selection module may further include an indication screen and a driving circuit that drives the indication screen; the indication screen is integrated with the keys of the measurement mode selection module, and when the keys are triggered, the driving circuit drives the indication screen corresponding to the triggered keys to light or display identification symbols for representing corresponding measurement modes; or the indication screen is arranged near the key, and when the key is triggered, the driving circuit drives the indication screen to display an identification symbol for representing the corresponding measurement mode. For example, as shown in fig. 2, the 5 measurement modes corresponding to the current 5 keys are all in an inactive (i.e., inactive, unselected) state, so that the position of the indicator screen of each key is in an unlit state.

Fig. 3 shows a schematic diagram in which the three measurement modes are selected in combination in the example shown in fig. 2. In the example shown in fig. 3, the user currently selects three measurement modes, namely CD, CRP, and SAA, so that the indicator lights (or indicator screen positions) corresponding to the three keys are turned on, and the measurement mode representing the sample to be detected next is CD + CRP + SAA.

In the examples shown in fig. 2 and 3, the measurement mode selection module is implemented as a touch key panel. In this example, as an exemplary implementation manner, the user may sequentially touch the CD, CRP, and SAA keys to implement a CD + CRP + SAA combined measurement mode, and this touch manner may be referred to as multi-touch pointing. As another exemplary implementation, the user may touch the CD mode and slide to the right through the CRP mode and the SAA mode to implement a combined measurement mode of CD + CRP + SAA, which may be referred to as sliding multi-selection. If the multiple measurement modes to be selected are not adjacent but spaced apart from each other, for example, the combination measurement mode of CD + CRP + ESR needs to be selected, the multiple selection can be performed by sliding, and only the CD mode needs to be touched and slid to the right side to pass through the CRP mode and then pass over the SAA key, and then the CD mode is slid to the ESR key from other areas on the panel. For example, when a user selects a certain key, sound and/or vibration feedback can be received to better play a role of prompt feedback.

In an embodiment of the present application, the measurement mode selection module may include other keys, such as at least one of a switch key, an indicator light, a start key, and the like, in addition to the key indicating the measurement mode. Wherein a switch key, such as shown in the rightmost key of fig. 2 and 3, may be used to implement a switch of the measurement mode selection module and/or a switch of the entire sample detection device. An indicator light, such as shown by the leftmost bar key of fig. 2 and 3, may be used to indicate the operational status of the entire sample testing device, and so forth. A start key, such as the triangular key to the right of the ESR keys of fig. 2 and 3, may be used to confirm the selection of the measurement mode and cause the device to initiate a measurement of the blood sample based on the selected measurement mode. In the example shown in fig. 2 and 3, to the right of the triangular key representing the start key, there is also a key in the form of a double arrow representing a count key which can be used for the activation of a measurement mode related to cell counting.

In the embodiment of the present application, the measurement mode selection module may have a default measurement mode, and the default measurement mode may be automatically set when the device is shipped from a factory, or may be customized by a user. Each time the current sample measurement mode is confirmed, the device automatically returns to the default measurement mode, and the indicator light or indicator screen corresponding to the default measurement mode in the measurement mode selection module is normally on (with sound and/or vibration feedback).

Fig. 4 shows a schematic diagram of a default measurement mode in the example shown in fig. 2. In the example shown in fig. 4, the default measurement mode is the CD + CRP combination measurement mode. Assuming that the measurement mode of the current sample is selected by the user as the CD + CRP + SAA mode as shown in fig. 3, after the combined measurement mode is confirmed, the device may automatically return to the default measurement mode, CD + CRP, and at this time, the key indicator of the measurement mode selection module is automatically updated to be the indicator corresponding to CD and CRP that is normally on (which may be accompanied by sound and/or vibration feedback), prompting the user that the next test will be performed by default in the CD + CRP mode. If the user does not change the test mode, the "start" or "count" button can be pressed directly and the device will confirm that the test is performed in the CD + CRP mode.

In embodiments of the present application, the measurement mode selection module may also support deselection of a certain key or keys. Fig. 5 shows a schematic diagram in which the measurement mode is deselected in the example shown in fig. 4. As shown in fig. 5, assuming that the current measurement mode is the CD + CRP mode shown in fig. 4, if the user touches the CPR button, the indicator light or screen location corresponding to the CPR button goes off (possibly accompanied by sound and/or vibration feedback), leaving only the CD mode. The user may then touch the "start" or "count" key and the device will confirm that the test is in CD mode.

In the embodiment of the application, the number of the keys for indicating the measurement mode in the measurement mode selection module can be customized. For example, when the device does not include a measurement mode corresponding to a partial key, the controller of the device (the controller 120 shown in fig. 1) may control the indicator light or the indicator screen corresponding to the partial key not to display the identifier of the measurement mode corresponding to the partial key.

Fig. 6 is a schematic diagram showing a model of the sample testing device including all the measurement modes in the example shown in fig. 2. Fig. 7 is a schematic diagram showing another model of a sample testing device equipped with a part of the measurement modes in the example shown in fig. 2. The model of the sample testing device shown in fig. 6 has all the measurement modes (including RET, CD, ESR, CRP, and SAA) in the example shown in fig. 2, and the model of the sample testing device shown in fig. 7 has some of the measurement modes (including ESR, CRP, and SAA) in the example shown in fig. 2, so that the indicator lights or indicator screens corresponding to the RET key and the CD key are positioned so that the two identification symbols RET and CD are not visible in the measurement mode selection module shown in fig. 7. This allows the same measurement mode selection module to be shared by the various models.

In an embodiment of the application, at least one key in the measurement mode selection module is configurable to customize a measurement mode corresponding to the at least one key. FIG. 8 is a schematic diagram illustrating that at least one key in a measurement mode selection module of a sample testing device can be custom configured according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in FIG. 8, a humanoid key represents a key that is customizable here, for example, by a touch screen, a measurement mode corresponding to the key, such as CDR, RET, ESR, CD-ESR, etc., can be defined. In this embodiment, at least one key in the measurement mode selection module is capable of customizing its corresponding measurement mode, and can flexibly meet the user's requirements. Correspondingly, the identifier number of the measurement mode corresponding to at least one key in the measurement mode selection module can also be editable. After the measuring mode of a certain key is customized, the corresponding identification symbol can be edited and modified correspondingly, so that the measuring mode is clearer visually and convenient for a user to select.

In the embodiment of the application, the measurement mode selection module can also be a replaceable key panel, so that the measurement mode selection module can be customized in a modularization mode, the requirements of different sample detection devices are met, and the measurement mode selection module can be conveniently replaced when the detection requirements of the sample detection devices are changed.

Based on the above description, the sample detection apparatus 100 according to the embodiment of the present application can realize fast switching of the measurement mode, improving the efficiency of sample detection; in addition, the sample detection device according to the embodiment of the application can realize any combination of measurement modes, so that various clinical requirements can be met.

A sample detection device 900 according to another embodiment of the present application is described below in conjunction with fig. 9. As shown in FIG. 9, device 900 includes a plurality of keys, shown as key 1 through key n, where n is natural greater than 1, each key corresponding to a measurement mode, each key capable of being activated with one or more other keys of the plurality of keys to select a combined measurement mode.

Illustratively, the plurality of keys are touch keys or push-type mechanical feedback keys and are disposed on a housing (not shown) of the device 900. Illustratively, at least one of the plurality of keys is configurable for customizing a measurement mode corresponding to the at least one key. For example, an identifier indicating a measurement mode corresponding to each key is arranged on the surface of each key or in the vicinity of each key, and the identifier indicating the measurement mode corresponding to at least one key in the plurality of keys is editable.

The sample detection apparatus 900 according to the embodiment of the present application includes the functions that can be realized by the measurement mode selection module in the above embodiments, so that any combination of the measurement mode and the fast switching of the measurement mode can also be realized.
