Description

  The present invention relates to a triage tag used for identifying a victim in a triage in which treatment priority is determined at a disaster site or the like.

When a large number of victims occur at the same time due to a disaster or the like, a triage to determine the priority of treatment of the victims is performed in order to save as many victims as possible by making the best use of limited medical resources. In the triage, the victim is classified into four triage categories according to the degree of urgency and severity, and the transport order, transport destination, treatment order, etc. are determined according to the triage category of the victim. Usually, in triage, the victim is classified into the following four triage categories.
Category 0: Death or no lifesaving status.
Category 1: Severe state related to life.
Category 2: Although not as much as Category 1, it should be treated early.
Category 3: No need for early treatment or transportation.

  In the triage, the triage performer determines the patient's condition in a short time, and attaches a triage tag indicating the result of the triage to the victim's wrist or the like. The triage practitioner does not carry or treat the victim but concentrates only on the selection of the victim, and the triage practitioner is carried and treated based on the contents of the triage tag.

  FIG. 8 shows an existing general triage tag a. The triage tag a is a vertically long rectangular form. From the upper part to the central part of the triage tag a, there are provided columns for entering the victim's personal information, the location and date of the triage, the symptoms of the victim, the triage classification, and the like. A triage section display portion b for clearly indicating a triage section that is the most important information in the triage is formed below the triage tag a. The triage section display portion b is formed by continuously connecting the triage label pieces c colored in the color indicating each triage section in the vertical direction, and the triage mark is formed by an easily cut line d formed between the triage mark pieces c. The piece c is cut off, and the triage classification of the victim is indicated by the color of the lowermost triage marker piece c. Specifically, the triage marker piece c is in the order of black (section 0), red (section 1), yellow (section 2), and green (section 3) from the top. If the triage section is determined to be section 1, cut between the red (section 1) and yellow (section 2) triage label pieces c, and the red (section 1) triage label piece c at the bottom. To be. If the triage section is determined to be section 3, the triage section display part b is attached to the patient without being cut.

  A conventional triage tag in which an IC tag is incorporated has also been proposed (for example, Patent Document 1). In the triage system described in Patent Document 1, triage tag identification information unique to each triage tag is stored in an IC tag incorporated in the triage tag. Then, the triage practitioner enters the required information in the triage tag using the electronic pen recording system, digitizes the information entered in the triage tag, and transmits it to the data management server. According to such a system, it is possible to read the triage tag identification information from the IC tag of the triage tag at the transport destination or the like, and to inquire about the information on the victim on the data management server.

JP 2009-217449 A

  As described above, in the existing triage tag, the triage classification display section is provided at the lower part of the triage tag so that the triage classification can be clearly distinguished. However, with conventional triage tags, it is often difficult to see the triage classification display from a remote location depending on the location of the triage tag and the position of the triage tag and the patient's posture. The triage tag must be picked up and the triage classification must be confirmed.

  On the other hand, if a triage tag with an integrated IC tag is used, it is possible to read the triage classification display section from a distance where the triage classification display section cannot be clearly seen by writing information on the IC tag and making it readable by wireless communication. The classification can be determined. Further, when the information on the triage classification of the victim is managed by the server as in Patent Document 1, if the triage tag identification information is read from the IC tag and referred to the server, the triage classification of the triage tag is determined. It can be determined without visually checking the triage classification display.

  However, in order to store the triage category in the IC tag, the triage operator must operate the IC tag writer to write the triage category information on the IC tag during the triage. Further, when managing the triage classification by the server, the triage implementer must input the triage classification into the terminal and transmit it to the server together with the triage tag identification information. Triage at disaster sites is a matter of time, and the time that can be devoted to each victim is limited, so it is desirable to minimize this effort.

  The present invention has been made in view of the present situation, and an object of the present invention is to provide a triage tag that can easily determine the triage classification of a triage tag by wireless communication.

  The present invention relates to a triage tag formed by forming a tag body portion for entering required information on a tag sheet and a triage division display portion indicating a triage division. The triage division display portion has a different pattern and / or color. The same number of triage marking pieces as the number of triage divisions to be performed can be separated from each other with an easy-cut line formed at the boundary between the triage marking pieces and the triage marking pieces in one direction from the end of the tag body. The IC tag includes a plurality of IC tags each including an antenna and an IC chip that performs wireless communication via the antenna, and the IC tag is easily cut so as to straddle each easy cutting line. A cutting identification IC tag disposed for each line, and a basic IC tag disposed at a position that does not cross the easy cutting line and is not separated from the tag main body. The IC tag for the antenna is arranged so that the vicinity of the IC chip of the antenna intersects the easy cutting line. The IC chip for the cutting identification IC tag and the IC chip for the basic IC tag are arranged at the respective positions. The triage tag is characterized in that IC tag attribute information is stored.

  In such a configuration, when the triage division display unit is separated by an easy-cut line, the IC tag disposed across the easy-cut line will be damaged due to the antenna being cut near the IC chip mounting site. The IC tag becomes completely incapable of wireless communication or can only perform wireless communication over a very short distance. For this reason, the stored information of the IC tag cannot be read from the normal reading position before cutting. Therefore, the triage tag of the present invention can read the IC tag attribute information stored in all the IC tags with the IC tag reader in a state where the triage division display section is not cut at all. In the state cut by the easy cutting line, the IC tag attribute information of the IC tag destroyed by the cutting of the easy cutting line cannot be read.

  As described above, the triage tag of the present invention makes it impossible to read the IC tag attribute information of the IC tag arranged across the easy cutting line by the IC tag reader due to the cutting at the easy cutting line. On the tag reader side, the triage category indicated by the triage category display unit is determined by specifying which easy cutting line of the triage category display unit is cut based on the IC tag attribute information that could not be read. be able to. Therefore, according to the present invention, in the triage, the triage classification display unit does not need to write the triage classification information on the IC tag or send the triage tag identification information and the triage classification to the server. The triage classification to be shown can be easily determined by wireless communication.

  It is desirable that the communicable distance of each IC tag according to the present invention is substantially uniform. Further, the communicable distance of the IC tag is desirably 1 m or longer, and the longer is desirable. Further, when the corresponding easy-to-cut line is cut, the cut identification IC tag preferably has a communicable distance of at least 30 cm or less, and more preferably cannot communicate.

  In the present invention, it is proposed that the IC tag performs wireless communication in the UHF band. Here, the “UHF band” refers to a frequency of 300 to 3000 MHz. In such a configuration, since the communication distance with the IC tag reader becomes long, the convenience of the triage tag can be improved.

  According to the present invention, in the IC tag for cutting identification, the IC chip is arranged beside the easy cutting line, and the portion other than the vicinity of the IC chip of the antenna is removed by cutting along the easy cutting line. It is proposed to be configured to be separated from the IC chip.

  According to such a configuration, when the triage tag is cut along the easy cutting line, the communication function of the IC tag disposed across the easy cutting line can be significantly reduced.

  Also, in the present invention, it is proposed that triage tag identification information unique to each triage tag is stored in the IC chip of the IC tag.

  In such a configuration, since the IC tag reader can determine which triage tag the IC tag to be communicated is disposed in, a plurality of triage tags can be included in the communicable range of the IC tag reader. Even in the case where there is, the triage classification can be accurately determined without confusing the IC tag of each triage tag. It is also possible to simultaneously determine the triage classification of a plurality of triage tags by wireless communication.

  According to another aspect of the present invention, in a state where the triage tag is included in the communicable range of the IC tag reader, the IC tag reader performs a data reading process of reading IC tag attribute information of an IC tag within the communicable range. And causing the IC tag reader to execute a classification determination process for determining the triage classification indicated by the triage classification display unit of the triage tag based on the IC tag attribute information read in the data reading process. This is a triage classification discrimination method for triage tags. According to this method, the triage classification of the triage tag can be reliably determined by wireless communication.

  Another aspect of the present invention is an IC tag reader for determining the triage classification of the triage tag by wireless communication, and a communication unit capable of simultaneously communicating with each IC tag of the triage tag, and displaying information A data reading process for reading information on the IC tag attribute information of each IC tag within the communicable range, and the triage tag based on the IC tag attribute information read by the data reading process. An IC tag reader characterized by sequentially executing a classification determination process for determining a triage classification indicated by a triage classification display unit and a determination result display process for displaying a result of the classification determination process on a display unit. According to such an IC tag reader, the triage section of the triage tag can be easily read. In addition, the IC tag reader has an advantage that it can be realized at low cost because the hardware configuration of the existing IC tag reader can be used.

  In the IC tag reader, if the IC tag attribute information of the basic IC tag is not read in the data reading process, a screen indicating that the triage classification has not been read is displayed in the determination result display process. It is suggested to display in the department. In such a configuration, if the triage classification by wireless communication fails due to the situation of the field such as rainfall or contamination, the operator is clearly informed so, so the operator can connect the IC tag reader to the triage tag. It is possible to quickly take measures such as retrying after approaching or switching to visual confirmation of the triage classification display section.

  As described above, according to the present invention, the triage section indicated by the triage section display section can be determined by wireless communication only by cutting the triage section display section according to a normal procedure during triage. A triage tag that can easily determine the triage classification can be realized without increasing the trouble of triage. Further, since the triage tag of the present invention can directly determine the disconnection state of the triage category display unit by wireless communication, the information of the triage category is compared with the configuration in which the information of the triage category is manually stored in the IC tag or the like. There is an advantage that input mistakes are unlikely to occur.

It is a flowchart which shows the processing content of a division | segmentation discrimination | determination process. It is explanatory drawing which shows the example of a display of discrimination | determination result display processing. It is a surface view of the conventional triage tag a.

  Embodiments of the present invention are described according to the following examples.

  As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the triage tag 11 according to the present embodiment is formed by connecting an annular rubber string 13 to be attached to a wrist or the like of a sick person to an upper end portion of a tag sheet 12 having a vertically long rectangular shape. It is.

  The tag paper 12 can be made of a highly durable paper similar to a conventional product. From the upper part of the tag sheet 12 to the center part is a tag main body part 14 for entering various information by triage, and the lower part of the tag sheet 12 constitutes a triage section display part 15 for clearly indicating the triage section.

  As shown in FIG. 1, a column for entering required information is provided on the surface of the tag main body 14. Specific entries include personal information of the victim, triage implementation date / location / executor, diagnosis content, triage classification, and the like. In addition, an identification number (No.) unique to each triage tag 11 is preprinted on the upper left of the surface of the tag main body 14. Moreover, as shown in FIG. 2, the back surface of the tag main-body part 14 is provided with the column which fills in special notes, such as a damaged part. In addition, on the front side of the tag main body 14, two copy papers 12a and 12b are stacked. The copy papers 12a and 12b are used as a backup for disaster sites and transporting organizations.

  As shown in FIG. 3, the triage section display unit 15 is formed by continuously connecting four horizontally-long rectangular triage marker pieces 16 a to 16 d downward from the lower end of the tag main body 14. Similarly, the triage marking pieces 16a to 16d are selectively separated, and the triage marking pieces 16a to 16d at the bottom are configured to indicate the triage classification of the victim. Specifically, the four triage marking pieces 16a to 16d correspond to four types of triage sections (sections 0 to 3), and are colored with colors indicating the corresponding triage sections. Specifically, the first triage marker piece 16a formed immediately below the tag main body portion 14 indicates the section 0 and is colored black. The second triage labeling piece 16b formed under the first triage labeling piece 16a indicates the section 1 and is colored in red. Similarly, the third triage marker strip 16c below the second triage marker strip 16b is colored yellow indicating Section 2. The fourth triage marker piece 16d located at the bottom is colored green indicating the section 3.

  Easily cut lines 18a to 18c made of perforations are formed at the boundaries between the triage mark pieces 16a to 16d so as to cross the tag sheet 12, respectively. And it is comprised so that the triage label | marker pieces 16b-16d can be cut | disconnected from the tag main-body part 14 by cut | disconnecting the tag paper 12 along the easy cut lines 18a-18c. An easy-cut line is not formed between the tag body 14 and the first triage marker piece 16a, and the uppermost first triage marker piece 16a is configured not to be separated from the tag body 14. .

  As shown in FIG. 3, four IC tags 20a to 20d are arranged in parallel on the tag sheet 12 along the vertical direction. Each of the IC tags 20a to 20d is a passive tag capable of wireless communication in the UHF band, and includes an IC module 21 including an IC chip 25 and a dipole antenna 22 formed on the tag sheet 12. Although the IC tags 20a to 20d have different arrangement positions on the tag paper 12, their device configurations are the same.

  As shown in FIG. 3, the IC module 21 of each of the IC tags 20 a to 20 d is bonded to the center of the surface of the tag paper 12 in the width direction. As shown in FIG. 4, each IC module 21 is formed by packaging an IC chip 25 and a coiled small antenna 26 connected to the IC chip 25. The IC chip 25 is an off-the-shelf product used for an IC tag for the UHF band, and is configured to read and write information by wireless communication via the small antenna 26. In addition, the IC chip 25 has an anti-collision function so that the IC tag reader can simultaneously communicate with the plurality of IC tags 20a to 20d. As this IC module 21, a commercially available product (for example, UHF ultra-small package tag manufactured by Hitachi Chemical Co., Ltd.) can be suitably used.

  As shown in FIG. 3, the dipole antenna 22 has a symmetrical U-shape. The length of the dipole antenna 22 is set to a length suitable for wireless communication at a predetermined frequency in the UHF band. The dipole antenna 22 is formed by printing a conductive paste on the surface of the tag paper 12. The dipole antenna 22 can also be formed by pressing a metal foil. A mounting portion 24 surrounding the periphery of the IC chip module is formed at the center of the dipole antenna 22. The dipole antenna 22 is electromagnetically coupled to the small antenna 26 of the IC module 21 in the mounting portion 24. It is configured. Since the IC chip 25 can communicate only over a very short distance (several centimeters) using only the small antenna 26, in this embodiment, the small antenna 26 is electromagnetically coupled to the dipole antenna 22 in this embodiment. By functioning as a booster antenna, the communicable distance of the IC chip 25 is extended to about 3 m. That is, in this embodiment, the small antenna 26 and the dipole antenna 22 of the IC module 21 constitute an antenna according to the present invention.

  As shown in FIG. 3, among the four IC tags 20a to 20d arranged on the top and bottom of the triage tag 11, three except for the uppermost portion are the easy cutting lines 18a to 18b between the triage label pieces 16a to 16d. It is IC tag 20b-20d for a cutting | disconnection identification installed so that it may straddle 18c. And one of the uppermost parts is the basic IC tag 20a installed in the boundary of the tag main-body part 14 and the 1st triage label | marker piece 16a, without straddling the easily cut lines 18a-18c.

  As shown in FIG. 3, the cut identification IC tags 20b to 20d are first cut identification ICs arranged across the easy-to-cut line 18a between the first triage marker piece 16a and the second triage marker piece 16b. A tag 20b, a second cutting identification IC tag 20c disposed across an easy-to-cut line 18b between the second triage marker strip 16b and the third triage marker strip 16c, and the third triage marker strip 16c and fourth It comprises a third cut identifying IC tag 20d disposed across the easy cut line 18c between the triage marker pieces 16d.

  As shown in FIG. 3, in each of the cut identification IC tags 20b to 20d, the IC module 21 is disposed immediately below the center of the easy cut lines 18a to 18c. Each dipole antenna 22 is arranged so that the base portion of the mounting portion 24 surrounding the IC module 21 intersects the easy-cut lines 18a to 18c, and when the easy-cut lines 18a to 18c are cut, The module 21 is configured to be separated from a portion of the dipole antenna 22 excluding the mounting portion 24. Here, the dipole antenna 22 intersects the easy-cut lines 18a to 18c so as to include the non-cut portions of the perforations. Thus, in the non-cut state of the easy-cut lines 18a to 18c, the easy-cut lines 18a to 18c. The dipole antenna 22 is configured not to be disconnected at the intersection with 18c.

  FIG. 5 shows a state in which the triage tag 11 is cut off at an easy cutting line 18b between the second triage labeling piece 16b and the third triage labeling piece 16c. In this state, the dipole antenna 22 of the second cutting identification IC tag 20c is cut by the easy cutting line 18b, and the IC module 21 of the second cutting identification IC tag 20c is separated from most of the dipole antenna 22. The second cutting identification IC tag 20c can only perform wireless communication over a very short distance (several centimeters) and cannot read stored information by wireless communication from a position 10 cm or more away.

  As described above, the IC tags 20b to 20d for cutting identification are configured to be substantially incapable of communicating with the IC tag reader when the easy cutting lines 18a to 18c at the arrangement positions are cut. On the other hand, the basic IC tag 20a is not disabled due to the separation of the triage marking pieces 16b to 16d, and is not separated from the tag main body 14.

The IC chip 25 of each IC tag 20b to 20d has triage tag identification information unique to each triage tag previously given to the triage tag 11 and IC tag attribute information given according to the location of the tag paper 12. Is memorized. The triage tag identification information consists of an 8-digit identification number. Further, the IC tag attribute information consists of identification numbers 0 to 3 as described below.
0: Basic IC tag 1: First cutting identification IC tag 2: Second cutting identification IC tag 3: Third cutting identification IC tag And the IC chip 25 of each IC tag 20b-20d is from an IC tag reader In response to the request, the information of the triage tag identification information and the IC tag attribute information is transmitted to the IC tag reader. Specifically, the IC tag 20b for identifying the second cut of the triage tag 11 whose triage tag identification information is “12345678” is IC information including the triage tag identification information “12345678” and the IC tag attribute information “2”. Send to tag reader.

  As a manufacturing method of the triage tag 11 of the present embodiment, for example, a process of manufacturing an existing triage tag that does not include an IC tag by printing on the tag paper 12 or forming easy-cut lines 18a to 18c. A step of printing and forming the dipole antenna 22 at a required position of the tag paper 12, a step of adhering the IC module 21 to the required position of the tag paper 12, and the above-described triage tag on the IC tags 20a to 20d using an IC tag writer. And a step of writing identification information and IC tag attribute information.

Next, an IC tag reader for determining the triage classification of the triage tag 11 by wireless communication will be described.
The IC tag reader for determining the triage classification of the triage tag 11 by wireless communication is a known IC tag reader in which a program for determining the triage classification is incorporated. Specifically, the triage classification reading device includes a communication unit capable of communicating in the frequency band (UHF) of the IC tags 20a to 20d of the triage tag 11, an operation unit for an operator to operate, read information and operation information. For example. This IC tag reader needs to have a communication range that can include at least the entire triage tag 11. In consideration of determining the triage section from a position where it is difficult to visually recognize the triage section display unit 15, the communication range of the IC tag reader is preferably 1 m or more. In addition, the IC tag reader needs to have an anti-collision function capable of simultaneous communication with the plurality of IC tags 20a to 20d. Since the hardware configuration of such an IC tag reader is known, detailed description thereof is omitted.

  When the IC tag reader determines the triage classification of the triage tag 11, the IC tag reader determines the triage classification based on the data reading process for reading the stored information of the IC tags 20a to 20d of the triage tag 11 and the information read by the data reading process. A classification determination process for determining and a determination result display process for displaying the determination result of the triage classification on the display unit are sequentially executed.

  In the data reading process, the IC tag reader communicates with all the IC tags 20a to 20d of the triage tag 11 in the communicable range, reads the information stored in the IC tags 20a to 20d, and stores it in the storage device. The data read by the data reading process includes triage tag identification information and IC tag attribute information as described above. Since the data reading process can be executed by a known procedure, detailed description is omitted.

  FIG. 6 shows the processing contents of the classification determination processing. In the classification determination process, first, information stored in the basic IC tag 20a, that is, information including IC tag attribute information “0” is searched from the information read in the data reading process (S1). In step S2, it is determined whether or not information on the basic IC tag 20a is found from the search result in step S1. If information on the basic IC tag 20a is not found, the classification determination process is terminated, and the basic IC tag 20a is terminated. Is found, the process proceeds to step S3.

  In step S3, information on the IC tag (same as triage identification information) arranged in the same triage tag 11 as the found basic IC tag 20a is searched from the information read in the data reading process, and the process proceeds to step S4. To do.

  In step S4, it is determined whether or not information on the first cutting identification IC tag 20b is found in the search in step S3. If information on the first cutting identification IC tag 20b is not found, "Category 0" is determined. Is stored in association with the triage tag identification information of the triage tag 11 (S7). If the information of the first cut identification IC tag 20b is found in step S4, the process proceeds to step S5.

  In step S5, it is determined whether or not the information of the second cutting identification IC tag 20c is found in the search of step S3. If the information of the second cutting identification IC tag 20c is not found, “Category 1” is determined. Is stored in association with the triage tag identification information of the triage tag 11 (S8). If the information of the second cut identification IC tag 20c is found in step S5, the process proceeds to step S6.

  In step S6, it is determined whether or not the information of the third cutting identification IC tag 20d is found in the search of step S3. If the information of the third cutting identification IC tag 20d is not found, “Category 2” is determined. Is stored in association with the triage tag identification information of the triage tag 11 (S9). On the other hand, if the information of the third cut identification IC tag 20d is found in step S6, the determination result of “Category 3” is stored in association with the triage tag identification information of the triage tag (S10).

  As described above, in the classification determination process, in steps S1 and S2, the basic IC tag 20a included in the tag main body 14 is searched, and when information on the basic IC tag 20a is found, the same in steps S3 to S10. The triage classification of the triage tag 11 is determined by determining whether or not the storage information of the IC tags 20b to 20d for cutting identification of the triage tag 11 has been read. When the triage classification determination is completed in steps S3 to S10, information on new basic IC tags 20a is retrieved again in steps S1 and S2, and steps S3 to S10 are performed until no unprocessed basic IC tag 20a is found. Execute repeatedly.

  In the classification determination process, among the cut identification IC tags 20b to 20d in which the stored information cannot be read, the easy cut line is arranged at the arrangement position of the cut identification IC tags 20b to 20d closest to the tag main body portion 14. Since the triage classification of the triage tag 11 is determined on the assumption that 18a to 18c are cut, the IC tag attribute information of the cut identification IC tags 20c and 20d included in the separated triage tag pieces 16b to 16d Even when the IC tag reader is reading, the triage classification can be accurately determined.

  In the determination result display process, the result of the classification determination process is displayed on the display unit. Specifically, as shown in the examples of FIGS. 7A and 7B, the triage tag identification information (tag identification number) of the triage tag 11 that has determined the triage classification and the triage classification are displayed in association with each other. To do. On the other hand, if no information on the basic IC tag 20a is read in the data reading process and the triage classification is not determined in the classification determination process, the triage classification cannot be determined as shown in the example of FIG. 7C. A screen indicating that the error occurred is displayed on the display unit.

  As described above, the triage tag 11 of the present embodiment wirelessly communicates the triage classification indicated by the triage classification display unit 15 by causing the IC tag reader to sequentially execute the data reading process, the classification determination process, and the determination result display process. Can be determined. In particular, in this embodiment, since the triage tag identification information is stored in each of the IC tags 20a to 20d of the triage tag 11, a plurality of triage tags 11 are included in the communicable range of the IC tag reader. Even when the triage tags 11 are present, there is an advantage that the triage classification of the plurality of triage tags 11 can be determined at a time without confusion between the IC tags 20a to 20d of the respective triage tags 11. Further, in this embodiment, the IC tag reader is configured to notify that the triage classification cannot be determined in the determination result display process when no information on the basic IC tag 20a is read in the data reading process. Has been. For this reason, when it is difficult to distinguish the triage classification by wireless communication due to the situation of the site such as rainfall or contamination, the operator can immediately retry by making the IC tag reader close to the triage tag, Can be visually confirmed. In addition, the IC tag reader for determining the triage classification can be realized simply by incorporating a program for executing the above processing into an existing IC tag reader, and thus has an advantage that it can be manufactured at low cost.

Next, a usage example of the triage tag 11 of this embodiment will be described.
The triage tag 11 of this embodiment can be handled in the same manner as a triage tag that does not include an IC tag during triage. That is, the triage practitioner determines the state of the patient and enters the personal information and symptoms of the patient in the tag body 14. When the entry into the tag main body 14 is completed, the triage classification display unit 15 is separated by the easy cutting lines 18a to 18c so that the triage marker pieces 16a to 16d indicating the determined triage classification are located at the bottom ("Division" In the case of 3 ”, no cutting is performed.) Then, by winding the triage tag 11 around the wrist or the like of the victim, the triage for one victim is completed. Thus, in the triage tag 11 of the present embodiment, there is no need to perform operations such as storing the triage determination results in the IC tags 20a to 20d.

  And according to the triage tag 11 of the present embodiment, it becomes possible to confirm the triage classification of the victim after the completion of the triage with the IC tag reader from a position about 3 m away. The triage classification of the identified victims can be used for comprehensive management of the number of victims and symptoms, for example, by transmitting them to the server together with the triage tag identification information. Further, since the triage tag 11 of this embodiment can use the above-mentioned IC tag reader to more easily confirm the triage classification than visually confirming the triage classification display section 15 one by one, the victim after the completion of the triage. It can also be used effectively when searching for and selecting patients with high severity from the above.

  As described above, the triage tag 11 of this embodiment can distinguish the triage section by wireless communication only by cutting the triage section display unit 15 in accordance with a general triage procedure. Without increasing, triage classification can be easily determined by wireless communication.

  The present invention is not limited to the embodiment described above, and various modifications can be made without departing from the scope of the present invention.

  For example, the form of the triage tag can be variously modified according to the triage system to be used.

  In the above-described embodiment, the IC tags 20a to 20d are configured by the dipole antenna 22 printed on the tag paper 12 and the IC module 21, but the antenna according to the present invention is printed on the tag paper. A configuration in which an IC chip is directly attached to the antenna can also be used. Further, the IC tag according to the present invention can also be disposed by sticking an inlet tag to tag paper.

  In the above embodiment, the IC tags 20a to 20d are exposed on the surface of the tag paper 12, but the surface of the IC tag can be appropriately covered with a protective layer. Further, the IC tag can be embedded in the tag sheet.

  Moreover, in the said Example, although the easy cut line 18a-18c is formed by the perforation, the easy cut line which concerns on this invention can also be formed by a half cut line.

  In the above embodiment, only the triage tag identification information and the IC tag attribute information are stored in the IC tags 20a to 20d. However, the IC tag of the present invention has a configuration other than the triage tag identification information and the IC tag attribute information. It is possible to store the information.
