Die Schnittstelle 54 kann außerdem ausgebildet sein zur Aktualisierung der im Speicherelement 52 gespeicherten Daten, bspw. per Infrarot, Bluetooth, Wireless LAN oder ein Mobilfunknetz.Furthermore, the
Weiterhin umfasst die Speichereinrichtung 50 einen Timer 56 sowie eine Ausgabeeinheit 58, um eine Erinnerungsfunktion für den Patienten zu realisieren. Basierend auf den im Speicherelement 52 gespeicherten Anwendungsdaten des Patienten, die den Einnahmezeitraum der jeweiligen Medikamente (morgens, mittags, abends, nachts) ggf. in Bezug auf die jeweiligen Mahlzeiten (vor, während oder nach der Mahlzeit) enthält, liefert die Zeitsteuereinrichtung 56 ein Signal an die Ausgeabeeinrichtung 58, die daraufhin ein Warnsignal abgibt. Im gezeigten Beispiel handelt es sich bei der Ausgabeeinrichtung 58 um einen miniaturisierten Lautsprecher, der einen Piepton oder besser ein synthetisiertes Sprachsignal mit genauen Anwendungshinweisen wie etwa "vor dem Mittagessen rote Tablette nehmen" oder etwa "zum Abendessen Herzmittel einnehmen" ausgibt. Die Lautstärke kann dabei mittels einer (nicht dargestellten) Regeleinrichtung einstellbar sein. Alternativ kann natürlich auch eine optische Ausgabeeinrichtung verwendet werden, die die Anwendungshinweise auf einer kleinen Anzeige ausgibt. Die für den Patienten komfortabelste Erinnerungsfunktion dürfte jedoch mit Hilfe der Sprachsynthetisierung realisierbar sein.Furthermore, the
In der Speichereinrichtung sind zusätzlich zu den Anwendungsdaten dem jeweiligen Patienten zugeordnete Personenidentifikationsdaten abgespeichert. Durch die Ausgabeeinrichtung 58 können diese für den Benutzer/Patienten zur Überprüfung ausgegeben werden.In the memory device, personal identification data associated with the respective patient are stored in addition to the application data. The
Die Speichereinrichtung 50 kann wie beispielsweise eine SIM-Karte eines Mobiltelefons preisgünstig sowie platz- und gewichtssparend ausgebildet sein. Zur Stromversorgung kann eine (in Figur 2 nicht dargestellte) Stromversorgungseinheit wie etwa eine kleine Batterie oder ein Kondensator vorgesehen sein. Das Speicherelement 50 kann jedoch auch als passives Element entsprechend einem RFID-Chip ausgebildet sein und über die mit einer Radiofrequenzantenne versehene Schnittstelleneinheit 54 Radiofrequenzsignale empfangen und diese auch zur Stromversorgung nutzen.The
Zur sicheren Handhabung ist die Speichereinrichtung mit einem wasserfesten, abwaschbaren und stoßfesten, gleichwohl preiswerten Gehäuse bspw. aus Kunststoff versehen.For safe handling, the storage device is provided with a waterproof, washable and impact-resistant, yet inexpensive housing, for example. Made of plastic.
Vorzugsweise kann zusätzlich die Möglichkeit vorgesehen sein, das (möglicherweise störende) Erinnerungssignal durch Tastendruck oder dergleichen für eine bestimmte Zeitspanne wie etwa 10 Minuten zu unterdrücken. Eine derartige Funktionalität ist bspw. bei Weckern bekannt. Das unterdrückte Signal kann dann später zeitversetzt ausgegeben werden, um den Patienten nachträglich an die (möglicherweise versäumte) Produktanwendung zu erinnern.In addition, it may be possible to additionally suppress the reminder signal (possibly disturbing) by pressing a key or the like for a certain period of time, such as 10 minutes. Such functionality is known, for example, with alarm clocks. The suppressed signal can then be output later with a time delay to later remind the patient of the (possibly missed) product application.
Zur Überprüfung der verschreibungsgerechten Medikamentenanwendung (compliance) kann weiterhin eine (nicht dargestellte) Quittierungstaste vorgesehen sein, durch welche der Patient die verschreibungsgemäße Medikamentenanwendung quittiert. Alternativ kann zu diesem Zweck auch eine Sensoreinrichtung vorgesehen sein, die für jedes der Aufnahmefächer 22 ein Einreißen des entsprechenden Folienabschnitts erfasst und so auf die verschreibungsgemäße Medikamentenanwendung schließt.In order to check the prescription-compliant drug application (compliance), it is furthermore possible to provide an acknowledgment key (not shown), by means of which the patient acknowledges the prescription of the medication. Alternatively, a sensor device can be provided for this purpose, which detects a tearing of the corresponding film section for each of the receiving compartments 22 and thus closes the prescription-related medication application.
Unter Bezugnahme auf die Figuren 3 und 4 wird im folgenden ein Ausführungsbeispiel des erfindungsgemäßen Verfahrens zur automatisierten Verpackung einer jeweils individuell bestimmten Produktzusammmenstellung für eine Vielzahl von Patienten in individuellen Verpackungseinheiten erläutert.With reference to FIGS. 3 and 4, an embodiment of the method according to the invention for the automated packaging of an individually determined product composition for a plurality of patients in individual packaging units will be explained below.
Von einer Vielzahl von Patienten 100 werden in einem ersten Verfahrensschritt S1 zunächst die individuellen Verschreibungsdaten, d.h. die dem Patienten zur Anwendung verschriebenen Medikamente und anderen Produkte (Vitaminpräparate, Nahrungsergänzungsmittel, Salben etc.) vorzugsweise in der den jeweiligen Patienten betreuenden Apotheke erfasst und im nachfolgenden Verfahrensschritt S2 in einer Datenbank 80 abgespeichert. Bei der Datenbank 80 kann es sich wie in Figur 3 skizziert um eine dezentrale, in der Apotheke gepflegte oder auch um eine zentrale Datenbank handeln.Of a plurality of
Eine zur Versorgung einer großen Zahl (ggf. mehrere huderttausend) Patienten ausgerüstete Verpackungsmaschine oder Bestückungsmaschine 90 wird von Herstellern in großen Mengen mit Medikamenten versorgt. Zur personalisierten, patientenindividuellen Verpackung der einem Patienten jeweils verschriebenen Medikamente und/oder anderen Produkte in den vorher beschriebenen Blisterverpackungen für einen vorgegebenen Zeitraum werden im Verfahrensschritt S3 die Anwendungsdaten der Patienten aus der Datenbank 80 ausgelesen und jedem Patienten in dem darauffolgenden Verfahrensschritt S4 eine individuelle Blisterpackung 20 zugeordnet, in der die diesem Patienten für den Zeitraum verschriebenen Medikamente verpackt werden.A packaging machine or equipping
Basierend auf den ausgelesenen Anwendungsdaten werden im weiteren Verfahrensschritt S5 diese Anwendungsdaten außerdem auf einer dem jeweiligen Patienten zugeordneten Speichereinrichtung 50 abgespeichert und die Speichereinrichtung in Schritt S6 dann an der Verpackungseinheit 20 angebracht. Selbstverständlich können die Verfahrensschritte S5 und S6 auch in zeitlich umgekehrter Reihenfolge durchgeführt werden.Based on the read application data, in a further method step S5, these application data are also stored on a
Im weiteren Verfahrensschritt S7 wird die Übereinstimmung der in der Speichereinrichtung abgespeicherten Personenidentifikationsdaten mit der an der Verpackungseinheit angebrachten Kennung 29 überprüft. So kann eine Verifikation der Richtigkeit der Zuordnung von Verpackungseinheit 20 mit den in der Speichereinrichtung 50 abgespeicherten Anwendungsdaten erfolgen, so dass dem Patienten auf jeden Fall die ihm zugeordneten Produkte und Anwendungsdaten geliefert werden.In the further method step S7, the correspondence of the personal identification data stored in the storage device with the
Die so schnell, sicher und preisgünstig hergestellten Blisterpackungen (bspw. Wochenblister) werden an die jeweiligen Apotheken geliefert, die die mit Speicherelement versehenen Wochenblister dann den jeweiligen Patienten zur Verfügung stellen. Die Speichereinrichtung 50 kann dabei auch Anwendungsdaten von Produkten enthalten, die nicht mit dem Blister ausgeliefert werden, bspw. Salben, medizinische Tees, Bäderanwendungen oder dergleichen. Gemäß einer Variante der Erfindung kann wie erwähnt außerdem vorgesehen sein, dass die Anwendungsdaten auf der Speichereinrichtung vorzugsweise drahtlos aktualisiert werden, bspw. durch ein spezielles Mobilfunksignal oder auch eine in der Apotheke bereitgestellte Bluetooth- oder Infrarot-Schnittstelle.The blister packs (eg weekly blister) produced in such a fast, safe and reasonably priced manner are delivered to the respective pharmacies, which then provide the weekly blisters provided with the storage element to the respective patient. The
Die Erfindung ermöglicht so die schnelle, sichere und preiswerte Versorgung einer großen Anzahl von Patienten mit der individuell verschriebenen Produkt- bzw. Medikamentenzusammenstellung. Die bequeme Handhabung der Blisterpackung sowie die mitgelieferte Speichereinrichtung mit Erinnerungsfunktion unterstützt eine bedarfsgerechte Medikation des Patienten, so dass dieser länger in der Lage ist, sich selbst zu versorgen und nicht auf stationäre Pflege angewiesen ist.The invention thus enables the fast, safe and inexpensive supply of a large number of patients with the individually prescribed product or drug composition. The convenient handling of the blister pack and the memory device provided with a reminder function supports a need-based medication of the patient, so that he is more able to provide himself and is not dependent on inpatient care.
