Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a medical diagnostic system in which a patient's own physical symptoms are heard, applied to a medical diagnostic system, and diseases assumed from the symptoms are listed and shown. The present invention relates to a computer-readable recording medium on which a program for realizing an inquiry simulation that indicates a medical subject is recorded.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, when a patient himself / herself feels a physical disorder and makes a self-diagnosis of what kind of illness, a home medical book is used. In this home medical book, a two- or three-step check from the main symptoms indicates a potential illness and allows the patient to determine if the symptoms are the main symptoms for the patient. is there. For example, when a person feels cold / cold, first, as shown in FIG.
Is "Cold / Cold" for the whole body or "Cold / Cold for the limbs"?
Check if it is "whole body cold / cold" and check if it is "sudden cold" or "chronic cold". "Sudden cold" indicates "suspension of fever" as a suspicious illness, indicating that the main symptom is "tremor", and "chronic cold".
If so, suspected diseases are "heart failure", "hypothyroidism", "hypoadrenocorticism", "malnutrition and malnutrition"
The main symptom, the subject to be examined, etc. are shown for each. The same applies to other symptoms.

[0003] On the other hand, medical technical books are described in technical terms that are difficult for laymen to understand, and when diagnosing a plurality of symptoms, the disease is assumed depending on which symptom is emphasized. The groups are different, and physicians use a variety of tests to confirm the diagnosis and observe the progress.

[0004]

The main diseases that can be distinguished only by the symptoms of the disease are about 130. In addition, the symptoms of the disease are generally rough, such as fever, pain, sluggishness, bad complexion, and if there is fever, whether the fever has suddenly come on, a slight fever continues, or a high fever , Etc., and these symptoms can range from hundreds to thousands. Then, a plurality of combinations of these symptoms are diagnosed as a suspicious disease. Therefore, it is extremely difficult to indicate a possible illness by a two- or three-step check from the main symptoms in a home medical book, and to let the patient determine whether the symptoms are the main symptoms for the patient. Not only is it dangerous, but it can cause unnecessary anxiety to the patient. Furthermore, if the checkpoints are too small or the self-diagnosis is wrong, it may be too late to find the essential disease.

The present invention enumerates as many possible diseases as possible by combining as many symptoms as possible, gives an approximate examination of one's own diseases, and enables early detection and early treatment to be performed more appropriately. It is an object of the present invention to provide a computer-readable recording medium on which a program for realizing a questionnaire simulation for performing a computer is recorded.

[0006]

According to the present invention, there is provided a recording medium recording a program for realizing a medical interview simulation by a computer, wherein the program comprises:
A procedure for sequentially expanding and displaying the interview screen, a procedure for selecting a corresponding interview answer from the interview development screen, a procedure for storing a symptom code corresponding to the selected interview answer, and A step of comparing a symptom code with disease name determination data stored in advance to determine an estimated disease name.

[0007] By performing a medical interview simulation using the recording medium as described above, it is possible to hear the physical symptoms felt by the patient himself without using medical jargon, and to list and show possible diseases based on the symptoms. Can be. Therefore, the patient can be aware of the possibility of the illness that the patient is suffering from, and can select the medical department that the patient has and the medical institution of the medical department.

[0008]

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS One embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. In FIG. 1, reference numeral 10 denotes a data bus to which various devices to be described later are connected via the data bus 10. The CPU 11 performs calculations, switching, comparison, and other controls. The input device 12 inputs a program operation command, a response to a medical inquiry, a name, an age, and other information.

The display and voice output device 13 displays information input from the input device, data stored in the ROM 25, and the like, and outputs a voice of the operation sequence and questions of the medical examination. The RAM 14 is for temporarily storing information input from the input device 12, a part of data called from the ROM group 24, and the like. The printer 15 is for printing the created medical chart, items of the symptoms selected in the interview, commentary on the disease, medical institution information taken from the outside, and the like. I / O 16 for external connection
Is for connecting to an external host computer via an Internet connection or the like.

The ROM group 24 includes a number of ROMs 17 to 23 as described below. RO for program control
M17 stores all the program control data necessary for the interview simulation, such as the method and order of the interviews, the judgment of the disease, the control for creating the medical chart, the program for connecting to the outside, and the like. I have.

The consultation simulation ROM 18 includes a consultation wording data storage unit 18a, a disease name determination data storage unit 18
b, includes an inquiry screen development data storage unit 18c. The medical inquiry wording data storage unit 18a stores, in a consultation room, an easy-to-understand medical inquiry item such that a doctor asks a patient for a symptom associated with a disease, without using specialized medical terms such as those in a medical book. 6
00 or more are stored. More specifically, as shown in FIG.
"Interview display screen number", "item number in display screen", "interview wording", and "symptom code" are given. In most cases, if the "interview item No." is different, the "interview wording" is also different, but the "interview item No.", "interview display screen number", and "item number in the display screen" are different. Nevertheless, there is a case where the “interview wording” and the “symptom code” are the same.
This is because the words of the medical inquiry on the medical inquiry screen may be the same even for different disease symptoms.

The disease name judgment data storage section 18b stores a group of diseases. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 4, about 130 main diseases are provided with "code / disease name" and "symptom judgment". The number of matches indicating the number of acquired codes, the "indispensable code for symptom determination", and the "optional code for symptom determination" are provided.
For example, the "match number 2" of "acute gastritis" is determined to be "acute gastritis" if "at least one of four arbitrary codes" matches "one essential code". . In addition, since the essential code is “0000” for the “number of matches” of “appendicitis”, if there is no essential code and “at least any three of nine arbitrary codes” match, “appendicitis” Is determined. In addition, "the number of matches representing the number of acquired codes for symptom determination" necessary for diagnosis of the main disease
"Required code for symptom judgment""Optional code for symptom judgment"
Is given by the knowledge of medical diagnostics to create a look-up table.

[0013] The inquiry screen development data storage unit 18c includes:
A "screen number", "question of a doctor", "a plurality of inquiry messages representing symptoms of a patient", "a symptom code corresponding to the inquiry message", and a "number of the next screen" are stored for each inquiry screen. Among these, "screen number""several interview texts expressing the patient's symptoms"
The “symptom code corresponding to the inquiry message” corresponds to the content stored in the inquiry message data storage unit 18a, and the inquiry screen expansion data storage unit 18c stores “next” in accordance with the selected inquiry message. "Screen number" is stored.

For example, as shown in FIG. 7, "screen number / 3-1-3-1""How is the question / appetite of the doctor?" No. " Suddenly, my appetite disappeared. 10183 ・ 3-1-3-2 2. In recent months, the amount of food has dropped significantly. 10184 ・ 3-1-3-2 3. For a long time, meals became unpalatable. 10184 ・ 3-1-3-2 4. Suddenly, I stopped eating. 40123 ・ 3-1-3-2 5. Food tastes strange. 40141 ・ 3-1-3-2 6. There is no particular abnormality. None ・ 3-1-3-2 is displayed. In addition, the symptom codes corresponding to the interview question words "2. The amount of food has decreased significantly in recent months." And "3. This is because even if the expressions are different, the contents are substantially the same. In addition, an interview text without a symptom code cannot be a factor for determining a disease.

The disease explanation ROM 19 stores data for knowing the details of the disease determined in the inquiry, and is displayed when the disease name is clicked on the screen displayed according to the inquiry result. In addition, as a search from a body part, for example, “head”, “chest”, “abdomen”, “lumbar back”
Searches for "hands and feet", "whole body" and "mental spirit", and searches for medical departments include "General Internal Medicine / Gastroenterology", "Respiratory and Cardiology", "Neurosurgery / Neurology", "Urology / Dermatology" Searches from "", otolaryngology, ophthalmology, and dentistry, "obstetrics and gynecology", "orthopedics", "psychiatry", "pediatrics", and "trauma" can also be displayed. In addition, the displayed commentary can be printed out.

The inspection commentary ROM 20 receives data describing approximately 400 types of inspections. In the search for this test, “search for sample test”, “search for clinical test”, and “search by test name” can be performed. Of these, "search for specimen test" is to collect blood, urine, etc.
It examines what kind of illness you may have, and is classified into "blood test", "urine test", "stool test", and "other (sputum / puncture)". The "search for a clinical test" is to check the condition of the body using an instrument like an X-ray test, and to check how the condition of the body is, what kind of illness is possible, and the like. The "search from examination name" is to perform a character string search when the examination name is known in advance. It is possible to print out the commentary of the displayed examination name.

The checkpoint ROM 21 for medical treatment is
It stores data describing common symptoms and illnesses that, in principle, should not be performed by a doctor during medical treatment. They are listed under "Diagnosis", "Symptoms" and "Disease".
For example, when there is a symptom of "headache", data that explains in detail the problem caused by prescribing only a headache medicine without checking the cause is stored. You can print out the commentary of the displayed checkpoint.

The body structure ROM 22 stores data that explains the mechanism of the body mainly for each part in an easy-to-understand manner. For example, "Cranial nerve""Eye""Ear"
“Nose” “Thyroid / parathyroid” “Respiratory” “Heart” “Vascular” “Gastrointestinal tract” “Liver” “Gall bladder” “Pancreas” “Kidney” “Female genitalia” “Skin” “Muscle / Bone / Joint” “ It describes about 20 sites, such as blood, endocrine, and allergies. You can print out the commentary on the displayed body structure.

The personal medical record ROM 23 stores data to be used for health management by recording illnesses and examinations received by the patient and his / her family, and printing them out as necessary. I have. For example, as shown in FIG. 9, name, gender, date of birth, age,
In addition to the blood type, medical history, lifestyle, major medical history in the past, illness currently being treated, recently taken tests, etc., the symptoms selected by the inquiry simulation of the present invention and further added symptoms are described. The displayed personal chart can be printed out.

Next, the general sequence of the interview simulation will be described with reference to FIG. After starting, from the display screen,
If any one of “interview simulation”, “explanation of illness”, “explanation of examination”, “checkpoint of medical treatment”, “body structure”, and “personal chart” is selected by the input device 12, the program control R via the CPU 11 is selected.
The program of the OM 17 is called, and the selected data is displayed on the display and audio output device 13. For example,
Assuming that "interview simulation" is selected,
A screen similar to that shown in FIG. 6 is called from the medical inquiry wording data storage unit 18a of the medical inquiry simulation ROM 18, displayed on the display and voice output device 13, and asked by the doctor.
On the screen, to make you feel like you are facing a doctor,
The doctor wearing the white coat is displayed, and the question is made by voice. One corresponding one is selected from the plurality of answers displayed here.

The selected answer has a unique symptom code, which is temporarily stored in the RAM 14. The screen is developed based on the data from the inquiry screen development data storage unit 18c, and the inquiry is repeated several times (up to 12 times). If there is a symptom code, the symptom code is sequentially stored in the RAM.
14 is stored. After a predetermined number of these symptom codes are stored in the RAM 14, when a result display command is issued from the input device 12, the CPU 11 compares the storage code in the RAM 14 with the data in the disease name determination data storage unit 18b, and displays and displays the voice. As shown in FIG. 8, one or more estimated disease names are displayed on the output device 13. In addition, the procedure for sequentially expanding and displaying the inquiry screen is a procedure for asking a symptom that is likely to be any disease, a procedure for asking a question to identify the disease system, and further for a disease of the same system. It is performed in the order of the procedure for asking questions in detail.

After the name of the disease is displayed, the user may click "end" to end the procedure as it is, or may click "request a new question" to re-examine the patient. By clicking on the displayed disease name, the data from the disease explanation ROM 19 is called into the RAM 14 and displayed on the display and voice output device 13. Print out.

After the display of the disease name, "Preparation of symptom list"
By clicking, a personal chart as shown in FIG. 9A is displayed, and necessary items are written by the input device 12 to create a personal chart. A symptom list as shown in FIG. 9B is also displayed. Input device 1
2, a network connection program in the program control ROM 17 is called, and medical institution data related to the disease name is acquired and displayed from an external host computer via the external connection I / O 16, and printed out as necessary.

A specific example of the interview simulation will be described with reference to FIG. (1) First question "How is heat?" A question screen for the first question from the question screen development data storage unit 18c is displayed on the display and voice output device 13. There are five answers to this question, but 1-4 have symptoms such as "slight fever" or "high fever", and specific symptoms as shown in FIG. Although he has the code, the answer 5 is "no fever", and there is no code acquisition because he does not have the symptom code. After selecting, click “Proceed”. Note that, from the first question to the second question, no matter which answer is selected, the interview screen development data storage unit 1
All the screens are shifted to the same screen by the data sent from 8c.

(2) The second question "How is your weight?" Here, it is assumed that answer 2 "Weight has hardly changed" without any symptom code is selected. There is no symptom code, so there is no code acquisition. After selecting, click “Proceed”. Note that, from the second question to the third question, regardless of which answer is selected, the screen moves to the same screen. Any answer from the first question to the second question and from the second question to the third question is switched to the same screen. This is the first of these,
The second question is because it shows the procedure for asking the symptoms likely to be of any disease.

(3) The third question, "From when and where is bad?" Here, it is assumed that the answer 2 is selected. Here, there is no code acquisition because there is no symptom code in all answers. After the selection, click "Suggest" to move to the next question screen. When answer 1 or 3 is selected, answer 2
Move to a different question screen.

(4) Fourth question "How are you feeling bad?" Here, it is assumed that answer 1 "No appetite" has been selected. Here, there is no code acquisition because there is no symptom code in all answers. After selecting, click "Suggest".
Moves to the next question screen. When answers 2 to 5 are selected, the screen moves to a question screen different from answer 1. The development of the screen from the third question to the fourth question and the fourth question to the fifth question is shifted to a different screen according to the answer. This is because these third and fourth questions are related to the disease system, for example,
This is due to the fact that the procedure for asking questions to identify the digestive system, respiratory system, cranial nervous system, etc. is indicated.

(5) Fifth Question "How is your appetite?" Here, it is assumed that answer 1 "Appetite suddenly disappeared." Here, among the answers from 1 to 6,
Since the answer up to 5 has a symptom code in the answer, the symptom code “10183” corresponding to the answer 1 is obtained and stored in the RAM 14. If you get at least one symptom code, you can estimate the disease.
Click appears. Disease name determination data storage unit 18b
In the disease judgment data stored in, there is not enough information to judge a specific disease with only the symptom code of this example. Not done. After selecting the answer 1, do not click "To the result" but click "Proceed". After the fifth question, the same screen is displayed. This is due to the fact that it provides a more detailed questioning procedure for similar strains of disease. However, we will mainly ask about the same type of disease, but depending on the code of the symptom answered, it may match other types of disease, so in that case,
A disease name other than the previously detected disease name may be displayed.

(6) Question 6: "Do you have nausea or sickness?" Here, it is assumed that answer 3 "I suddenly became sick and became vomit." Here, of the answers 1 to 6, since the answers 1 to 5 have symptom codes in the answers, the symptom code “10169” corresponding to the answer 3 is obtained.
This is also stored in the RAM 14. Since two symptom codes have been acquired, when "to result" is clicked, the CPU 11 compares the symptom code stored in the RAM 14 with the data in the disease name determination data storage unit 18b, and estimates the disease name as matched disease name data. "Acute gastritis" is displayed. After selecting answer 1, do not click "To the result" and proceed with "Proceed"
If you click, move to the next screen.

(7) Question 7: "Do you have pain in the lower abdomen?" Here, it is assumed that answer 4 "sudden abdominal pain" has been selected. Here, among the answers 1 to 5, 1 to 4
Until the answer has a symptom code, a symptom code "10197" corresponding to answer 4 is obtained, which is also stored in the RAM 14.
To be stored. Since three symptom codes have been acquired, when "to result" is clicked, the symptom code stored in the RAM 14 and the data in the disease name determination data storage unit 18b are stored in the CPU.
The estimated disease name is displayed as the disease name data that has been compared and matched in 11. Specifically, as shown in FIG.
Required code "10183" and optional code "10169"
"Acute gastritis" that matches the two, optional code "1016
"Appendicitis" where three of "9", "10183" and "10197" match, and "Cholelithiasis" where two of the essential code "10197" and the optional code "10169" match are displayed. After selecting answer 4, do not click “To result”
If the user clicks "Suggest", the screen moves to the next screen.

(8) Question 8: "Is there any pain on the right side of the belly?" Here, it is assumed that answer 5 "No particular abnormality" has been selected. Here, among the answers 1 to 5, the answers 1 to 4 have symptom codes in the answers, but there is no symptom code corresponding to the answer 5. Three symptom codes "10183" and "101"
Since “69” and “10197” have been acquired, clicking “To result” displays the three estimated disease names “Acute gastritis”, “Appendicitis”, and “Cholelithiasis” as in the seventh question. After selecting Answer 5, do not click "To the result" and proceed
If you click, move to the next screen.

(9) Question 9: "Is there pain around the stomach?" Here, select all of the answers 8 that apply. It is assumed that two answers are selected: answer 1 "stomach suddenly starts to hurt" and answer 4 "nausea before." Here, among the answers 1 to 8, the answers 1 to 7 have symptom codes in the answers, but there is no symptom code corresponding to the answer 8. Therefore, two symptom codes are added and RAM is added.
14 is stored.

In the same manner, (10) Question 10: "Is there an abnormality in the flight?" Answer 9 out of the nine answers, "There is no applicable item."
Select (No symptom code) and proceed to the next step. (11) Question 11: "Is there any itching?" Answer 7 of the seven answers: "There are no applicable items."
Select (No symptom code) and proceed to the next step. (12) Question 12: “Do you have any of these symptoms?” Answer 8 out of the 8 answers “There is no applicable item.”
Select (No symptom code).

Since there are a maximum of 12 questions,
Regardless of whether the user clicks “Proceed” or “Go to result” on the question display screen, the next screen displays the symptom selection items selected so far as shown in FIG. The names "Cholelithiasis", "Acute gastritis" and "Appendicitis" are displayed. The disease name after question 7 and the twelfth
The disease names after the question match, but this means that even if a different symptom code is input after that, the symptom code did not satisfy the condition that matches the different disease name. The name, gender, and age are input to the result of the interview simulation shown in FIG. The creation date and time are automatically entered. When one of the displayed disease names "cholelithiasis", "acute gastritis", and "appendicitis" is clicked, the explanation of the disease stored in the disease explanation ROM 19 is displayed on the display and voice output device 13, and detailed information is displayed. You can know the contents of the disease. A commentary on the disease can be printed out.

On the screen shown in FIG. 8, in addition to the fields for clicking on the disease name, there are also click fields for "prepare symptom list" and "re-examination". Click "Create Symptom List"
A symptom list as shown in FIG. 9B is displayed, and a symptom to be added is further input as necessary. This symptom list can be printed out.
