Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

The present invention makes it possible to register and additionally register and distribute personal healthcare information under security management for long-term storage of personal healthcare information, to perform remote reference and integrated use. Business model centered on personal healthcare information trust services.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Patient information, which is personal medical information, has long been a medical record (medical record), which is mainly text information,
It has been physically stored by film, which is image information. In such a physical storage form, in many cases, patient information only exists in one place, and this is usually stored in the possession of the medical institution where the medical treatment and treatment was performed. Therefore, when receiving medical treatment or treatment at another medical institution, the patient information is transmitted by a letter of introduction, etc., but in principle, the patient information itself does not move, and the cost and cost of the other medical institution are reduced. By time, and sometimes invasion of the patient,
New patient information was being collected. In addition, patient information itself, which is only one piece of physical information, is often lost, damaged, or deteriorated. In such a case, it is not difficult to imagine that duplicate tests, medical treatments, and treatments are performed, and it is clear that this contributes to the inefficiency of the medical economy.

[0003] In recent years, the digitization and digitization of patient information have been promoted, which has increased the portability of patient information and enabled simultaneous storage at a plurality of medical institutions. In addition, the transfer of patient information to remote locations is now performed via the Internet, and in the event of an accident or illness at a travel destination, patient information is exchanged between medical institutions. It is expected that good medical treatment and treatment will be possible.

[0004] There has been remarkable progress in recent medical diagnostic apparatuses, and the amount of patient information output from the medical diagnostic apparatus is extremely large, mainly from image information of several hundred to sometimes more than 1,000 sheets. It is becoming a quantity. Burning these output images to analog film for output
It is already becoming impossible in terms of both cost and actual work, and it is thought that in the future, observation will be predominantly carried out on a computer monitor in the form of digital information.

[0005] Attempts have been made to store patient information outside medical institutions, and methods have been devised for storing patient information in a memory card or the like and carrying the information with an individual. However,
The amount of patient information that can be stored here is extremely small,
There is a possibility that the memory card itself is lost, and it is not widely used at present.

[0006] The medical information service using the Internet distributes general medical / health information to an unspecified number of users, and allows individual patients to view specific test results by a specific laboratory on the Internet. What you can do is emerging.

[0007] Patient information is originally generated as a result of a highly public service called medical care. Epidemiologically useful information contained in this patient information is returned to the entire society while maintaining anonymity. However, such information is not always effectively used at present.

[0008] The medical and epidemiological effects of electronic preservation of medical information are widely recognized, and technical attempts on electronic preservation of medical information are being vigorously studied. At present, the question of who and how to bear the costs required to store patient information, which is increasingly increasing over time, remains unresolved. The burden on patients is limited, and the burden on medical institutions is also difficult due to the worsening economic situation in healthcare.

[0009]

Conventionally, patient information has been stored in medical records and films. Since there is only one patient information in such a physical storage form, the patient information is stored as possessed by the medical institution that performed the medical treatment and treatment. Along with this, when medical treatment / treatment is performed at another medical institution, patient information is transmitted by a letter of introduction, etc., but since detailed patient information does not move, a new examination must be performed at another medical institution. If you have to do.
Thus, there is a problem in the effective use of patient information.

[0010] Further, since patient information is stored in a medical chart and a film, the medical chart and the film are often lost, damaged, or deteriorated even in the same medical facility. Therefore, in such a case, duplicate inspection may be performed.

[0011] For medical institutions, the cost of storing increasing patient information is increasing, and it is becoming difficult to bear necessary costs due to the deterioration of medical economic circumstances. Although there are many advantages to implementing the conventional physical storage method and the electronic storage method in parallel and to switch from the conventional physical storage method to the electronic storage method, there are many costs. It is not realized because it is difficult for medical institutions to bear the burden.

Although there is an idea that the cost associated with the electronic storage method is borne by the patient, it is difficult to realize this over a wide area in terms of the patient's burden capacity. There is also an idea that by including personal health information in electronic storage to motivate the cost burden in terms of health management, the cost associated with the electronic storage method is borne by the user. Participation of a range of users has not been realized.

Originally, patient information should be attributed to the individual patient. However, it is difficult for a patient to store physical patient information by himself and for a long period of time, and to utilize the information effectively.
In reality it is very difficult and impossible.

In the future, even if a means is established for long-term storage of patient information belonging to an individual patient by a large-capacity portable physical medium, the physical medium may be lost or damaged. Sex cannot be solved.

Considering a case where a patient himself / herself stores patient information belonging to a patient by a large-capacity portable physical medium for a long period of time, the physical medium and the data written therein have a length of one hundred years. Lifetime and compatibility must be ensured over time. Therefore, when implemented as a social system, the problem of ensuring the longevity and compatibility of a large-capacity portable physical medium distributed to an individual patient cannot be easily solved.

Considering a case where a patient himself / herself stores patient information belonging to a patient by a large-capacity portable physical medium for a long period of time, it is difficult for a medical institution to use data written on the physical medium on a daily basis. ， It is often difficult in reality. For example, even if the data recorded at the medical institution is displayed as it is, it is of little value to the patient, so some processing is required, but it is difficult to perform processing that matches the needs at the time of viewing the patient offline. It is conceivable that a patient goes to a medical institution and requests processing and browses the results, but it is difficult to perform this method on a daily basis due to geographical restrictions.

Although it is useful to measure and record daily personal data such as body temperature and blood pressure at home as management of a health condition by a patient himself, calibration of a large number of test equipment provided in each home is required. Performing and maintaining the measured data as meaningful data is a difficult problem offline.

In many cases, a test is performed when a patient receives a medical examination or a medical examination at a medical institution. At present, the patient is returned to the medical institution to hear the result. Listening to the results is time consuming for both patients and healthcare providers.

Although epidemiological information is indispensable for medical progress, it is difficult to use medical record and film information in a nationwide model in managing patient information using medical records and films. Use of the information in the limited range. Because patient information is generated as a result of highly public services such as medical care, this information is used for epidemiological purposes as data that constitutes a statistically significant population while maintaining anonymity. Therefore, it is a character that should contribute to healthcare as a whole, but is not effectively used for such purposes at present.

According to the present invention, in order to improve the above-mentioned situation, personal healthcare information is registered and additionally registered, distributed, and remotely referenced under security control for the purpose of long-term digital storage of personal healthcare information. It aims to provide a business model centered on personal healthcare information trust services that enable integrated use.

[0021]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made to alleviate the drawbacks of conventional storage and utilization of patient medical information. The present invention is based on
Renewing the premise that the medical institution will keep the information, the patient will, under his own responsibility, trust the electronic storage and use of his personal health care information with a third-party organization that specializes in medical information. The third party acts as a repeater, collects all personal healthcare information belonging to the user from each medical institution via the Internet on behalf of the user, and stores this information on a server for a long time. This third party organization, upon receiving a request from the user, performs necessary processing on the personal health information stored on the server and distributes it to the designated destination via the Internet. The system is designed to make effective use of medical information.

The user can view the entrusted personal health care information at any time and from any place via the Internet using dedicated or general-purpose browser software.

A user can register personal data such as daily body temperature and blood pressure in a server of a third party via the Internet. This will help you manage your health,
Also, it is possible to accumulate as useful medical history information in case of illness in preparation for future illness.

When personal data such as daily body temperature and blood pressure is measured at home and registered as a user's own health management, an extremely large number of test devices provided in each home are calibrated. It is necessary to maintain the measured data as meaningful data, but it has enabled calibration of inspection equipment via the Internet.

When a user consults a medical institution or a laboratory for medical examination or illness, medical information and laboratory information from those institutions are automatically added to a server of a third-party organization. The user can browse the data that is sequentially added to the server of the third-party organization via the Internet immediately after the medical treatment or test result is issued without waiting for the next medical treatment day.

When a user wishes to view his / her own data, the data is stored in a server of a third party organization, and the data is processed according to the level required by the user. Data can be distributed via the Internet. As a result, temporal and geographical restrictions can be removed.

Since personal medical information includes information that is very personal and socially important, keeping information confidential is the most important issue. In order to ensure such confidentiality, strict security control is applied to medical information, and a mechanism that allows each user to set the information disclosure level arbitrarily or to specify the disclosure level in advance. Provided. This has made it possible to perform higher-dimensional information management than personal management.

Since the server of the third party stores the data of a wide range of patients electronically, the medical information with the prior permission of the patient can be stored while maintaining anonymity for epidemiological research purposes. It can be used as data that constitutes a statistically significant population.

The present invention proposes a business model for solving the problem of the cost required for long-term storage of patient information, which is increasing due to medical advances.

According to the present invention, it is possible to perform registration, additional registration, distribution, reference to a remote place, and integrated use of personal healthcare information under security management for the purpose of long-term storage of personal healthcare information. It aims to provide a business model centered on personal healthcare information trust services.

The present invention renews the premise that each medical institution stores patient medical information, and allows patients to
Trust the electronic storage and use of your own medical information with a third-party organization that specializes in medical information, and this third-party organization collects all patient medical information from each medical institution via the Internet and distributes it. Store on the server for a long time. In response to this request, the third party provided a mechanism for processing the medical information stored on the server and then delivering it to designated destinations via the Internet. This has made it possible to make effective use of patient medical information.

The present invention provides a mechanism by which a user can view health care information entrusted by the user at any time and from any place via the Internet using dedicated or general-purpose browser software.

The user can record personal data such as daily body temperature and blood pressure on a server of a third party organization via the Internet. This will help you manage your health,
In addition, a mechanism was provided that could be stored as useful medical history information in case of illness in preparation for future illness.

When personal data such as daily body temperature and blood pressure are measured at home and registered for the user's own health management, calibration of a large number of test equipment provided in each home must be performed. It is necessary to perform measurement and maintain the measured data as meaningful data, but provided a mechanism that allows calibration of inspection equipment via the Internet.

When a user consults a medical institution or a laboratory for medical examination or illness, a system is provided in which medical information and test information from those institutions are automatically added to a server of a third-party organization. . This makes it possible for patients to browse the data that is added sequentially to the server of the third-party organization via the Internet immediately after the medical treatment or test results are issued, without waiting for the next medical treatment day. Was.

If the user wishes to view his or her own data, the user's data stored in the server of the third party is adjusted to the level required by the user. After processing, we provided a mechanism to distribute this via the Internet. This has made it possible to remove temporal and geographical constraints.

Since medical information contains very personally and socially important information, keeping information confidential is the most important issue. In order to ensure such confidentiality, strict security control is applied to medical information, and each user can freely set the information disclosure level.
Alternatively, a mechanism is provided that allows the user to specify the disclosure level in advance. As a result, it has become possible to perform higher-dimensional information management than personal management.

Since the server of the third party stores the data of a wide range of patients electronically, the data of the patients with the prior permission of the patient is kept anonymously for epidemiological research purposes. However, it can be used as data that constitutes a statistically significant population.

The present invention employs a format in which each individual registers his / her personal health / medical information in a personal health / medical information database operated by the center in a form of trust. In addition, each individual entrusts to each medical institution / laboratory at their own responsibility the registration of their personal health / medical information possessed by each medical institution / laboratory in the personal health / medical information database managed by the center. Was taken. Therefore, it was possible to solve the previously discussed problem of who records personal health care information in an electronic medium or a database and in what position.

The present invention employs a method of registering personal health care information in the personal health care information database of the center via the Internet. Therefore, it was possible to solve the problem that the database for storing personal healthcare information, which had been a problem in the past, must be placed in a location that is easily geographically accessible.

The present invention provides a method for controlling body temperature via the Internet.
Employed means to allow personal data such as blood pressure and medication to be additionally registered in the personal health information database, and means to allow individuals to view their own personal health information registered in the personal health information database on the Internet Therefore, it was motivated for individuals to participate in this system. This has solved the problem of how to motivate participants to record personal health care information in an electronic medium or a database, which has been discussed in the past.

According to the present invention, each individual can register his or her personal health information registered in the personal health information database on the Internet according to security standards set by each individual or instructions of each individual, individuals, relatives, and medical institutions. , Medical insurance companies, public institutions, etc. In addition, there is provided a means for processing the data stored in the personal health care information database at the center in accordance with the security level of the communication partner and presenting the result. As a result, when receiving medical treatment and treatment at a new medical institution, it is possible to transmit past medical histories and personal health care information, eliminating duplicate examinations and medical treatment and treatment,
It can contribute to the efficiency of the medical economy.

According to the present invention, each individual discloses his / her own personal health / medical information registered in the personal health / medical information database to a public institution or the like on the Internet according to security standards set by each individual or each individual's instruction. Was adopted. This made it possible to handle medical information statistics on a nationwide scale. This is expected to advance epidemiological research.

The present invention provides means for normalizing, detecting abnormal values, and issuing an alarm for test data collected by individuals and medical facilities. By normalizing the inspection data, it has become possible to uniformly handle inspection data that is inspected by an extremely large number of types of inspection equipment manufactured by an extremely large number of manufacturers.

Since the function of detecting an abnormal value of the test data is provided, when the collected test data indicates an abnormal value, the abnormal value is caused by the abnormality of the subject or the abnormal condition of the biological test equipment. It is now possible to investigate what to do.

A means for transmitting an alarm when the test data has an abnormal value is provided, so that a medical alarm is generated when the abnormal value is caused by an abnormality of the subject, and that an abnormality of the biopsy device is detected. If it is determined that the problem is caused by the above, it is possible to indicate that the biopsy device needs to be recalibrated or repaired.

According to the present invention, a remote maintenance system is provided for each of the center, the individual, and the medical facility. This remote maintenance system has made it possible to maintain the state of a very large number of types of biopsy devices manufactured by a large number of manufacturers in a normal state. This remote maintenance system calibrates the biometric device. In addition, the preprocessing system calculates a normalization parameter when normalizing the inspection data. If the preprocessing system detects an abnormal value and determines that the abnormal value is due to an abnormality in the biopsy device, it recalibrates or repairs the biopsy device so that the status of the biopsy device becomes normal. It became possible to maintain.

The present invention is based on the personal health care information trust service provided by an employer on an Internet site providing the personal health care information trust service.
By distributing public information on illness, drugs, and insurance, advertising revenues from third-party companies can be obtained, and the advertising revenues of these third-party companies can make the personal healthcare information trust service itself free or inexpensive. The business model offered at the price was shown.
