Technical field
The invention relates to a kind of collapsible and sealable bag, a kind of method and a kind of method that is used for medicament distribution is given a patient that is used to produce a collapsible and salable bag.
Background technology
In the prior art, medicine is distributed in the container such as plastic jar, bottle and bag.These container production may spend height and also cause considerable waste.In addition, in hospital or sanatorium, flow rescue facility, outpatient's facilities environment or another patient's medical care facility (being referred to as " patient's medical care facility " in this article), the tablet form medicine that will distribute is individually usually put into plastic cup and taken after a while.Usually, on this cup, comprise a paper slip that contains the information that is directed to patient and medicine (for example, with tablet form).Behind this drug administration, this paper and/or label are placed in the patient medical inking chart at hospital and other medical related facility place.
Equally in the prior art, relevant with patient's medical care facility pharmacy is generally the medicine (for example for a supply in month) that patient prepares foaming package form.Usually during making an inspection tour, the nurse comes the ward and confirms that whether patient is in the ward.The chart of reference patient, and record and preparation patient's medicine and/or program.Tablet is shifted out the foaming package and be put in the dixie cup and throw in this patient.
Fig. 1 illustrates the example how the prior art medicament distribution method of above-identified causes confusion and lead to errors.Shown in herein, pharmacy (such as the pharmacy department in the hospital) provides the medicine of foaming package form.After under medicine in the foaming package is assigned to, nurse and other patient medical care person encapsulate separately and prepare each patient's dosage with medicine from the foaming package.When the medicine that will be chosen by nurse and medical care person takes out and is delivered to patient, the very big possibility that makes the mistake is arranged from the encapsulation of original ward.Typical mistake comprises patient, medicine, dosage and the moment of mistake.
Bar code is printed on indivedual objects usually and comprises on the container of some objects.Bar code contains vertical bar or the interior at interval information that has various width and arrange with predetermined pattern that is coded in.When bar code was scanned by apparatus for reading of bar code (for example, laser scanner), these vertical bars and interval were often intersected along surface level by scanning beam, perhaps through raster scanning or omnidirectional's scanning.The bar codes technique that comprises printer, scanner and demoder comprises semiology (promptly, bar code language) with digital coding with optical readable, produce machine-readable symbol thus, the numerical data that it is caught the visual image of semiology and is translated into the computing machine compatibility.The size of bar coded sticker is partly to be determined by used type of coding, indivedual vertical bar and size at interval or data matrix or compound key.The quantity of information that comprises in the bar code is subjected to the constraint of the size limit of bar code.
There are many different bar code symbols to learn.Each semiology has himself be used for character (for example, letter, numeral, punctuate) coding, error checking, printing of a cover and conciliates the rule of code requirement.Various bar code symbols are learned on the data type of the mode of its representative data and its codified different.Some are coded digital only, and other coded digitals, letter and a little punctuate, 128 characters of other codings and even 256 character ascii character groups again.Up-to-date semiology comprises the coding multilingual and allows to define by the user option of encode special or excessive data.If symbol is destroyed, then these new semiology even permission re-construct data by deliberate redundance.
Conventional bar code symbol is " one dimension ", that is, only extend on single direction at vertical bar and interval.One-dimensional bar code is at first in the amount that may be encoded in data wherein.There are a kind of needs that contain than the bar code of conventional bar code symbol more information day by day.Respond this needs, (Reduced Space Symbology is RSS) with compound key type (composite symbology, CS) bar code to have produced Reduced Space Symbology.The RSS bar code is the one-dimensional bar code that extends in one direction.There are some modification in existing RSS (comprising stack, restraint-type and expanded type), and it especially has the ability that the excessive data outside the short identifier in the basis that is printed with bar code is usually encoded.Second kind of semiology, CS is made up of the one dimension symbol that logically is linked on this two-dimensional symensional symbol in pairs and in some cases with the two-dimensional symensional symbol that is printed in directly over it.Compound two-dimensional symensional symbol is known as the UCC/EAN-128 particular variation of PDF 417 symbols or MICRO PDF 417 in this technology.MICRO PDF 417 is PDF 417 patterns for the small project indicia designs.At present, the RSS/CS bar code is defined as having from 56 characters to 2, the data capacity of 361 character range.Sooner or later, data capacity increases possibly.
Afterwards, the RSS/CS bar code has replaced the needs with reference to the outer computer database effectively extract a value (for example UPC project numeral) from one-dimensional bar code.Before producing the RSS/CS bar code, extract a value from one-dimensional bar code after, reference data is to provide the details relevant with the extraction value in Computer Database.On the contrary, the RSS/CS bar code contains the many related datas that before are stored in the parallel database.The RSS/CS bar code is database itself substantially.
