Description

  The present invention relates to a medicine arrangement confirmation system for confirming whether or not a medicine package is correctly accommodated in a medicine set device such as a medicine calendar or a medication calendar. The present invention also relates to a drug placement confirmation method and a drug placement confirmation program.

Elderly patients (users) and patients whose symptoms have left the acute stage are often treated at home. In addition, patients who do not require urgency such as hypertension or hyperlipidemia are often treated at home. Patients taking care at home should take medication based on self-management.
For example, if among the prescriptions of a doctor, its usage is to take medicines A and B in the morning, take medicine B in the daytime, and take double medicines A and C in the morning after dinner It is necessary for the patient to take out a prescribed amount of medicine from the medicine box or the like at a prescribed time and take a prescribed amount.
However, as a matter of fact, the type and amount of medicine to be taken may be incorrect or it may be forgotten. Conversely, they may take multiple doses.
In particular, it is difficult for the elderly or patients with reduced energy to take out the determined type of medicine from the medicine box or the like in a determined amount, and in some cases the medicine may not be taken correctly.

As means for solving this problem, Patent Documents 1 and 2 propose devices called a medication calendar or a medication calendar.
In the invention disclosed in Patent Document 1, a calendar is provided with a medicine storage unit for storing a medicine.
In the invention disclosed in Patent Document 1, four drug reservoirs are arranged below the date. Each of the four medicine containers corresponds to the timing (usage) of dosing, and based on the description of Patent Document 1, "morning", "day", "night", and "night" are displayed.
And the medicine corresponding to the timing of taking is stored in the medicine storage part of the medication calendar (drug calendar). When the timing for taking comes, the medicine is taken out from the corresponding medicine container and taken.

  The above-described dosing calendar tends to be adopted not only at individual homes, but also at nursing homes for elderly people and hospitals having hospitalization facilities.

The dosing point-by-point dosing calendar 102 is used jointly by a plurality of users, and is used in a nursing home or hospital. For example, drugs taken by each of 28 people at specific times of the day are stored according to the name of the user.
For example, on the morning of the day, 28 people whose names are on the calendar take the medicine contained in the medicine container with each name.
When all the people have taken the medicine, the medicine dosing calendar 102 is removed and the medicine dosing calendar 102 for daytime is prepared.
In the dosing timing-based dosing calendar 102, how many users are taken as one unit is arbitrary, and may be 10 or 30 people.

As mentioned above, there are several types of dosing calendars 100, 101, 102.
For example, the dosing calendar disclosed in Patent Document 1 is installed at the user's home or at a nursing facility, and the pharmacist of the visiting pharmacy visits the user's home or nursing facility for visiting the drug to the medicine container. refill.
In addition, the pharmacist stores the drug in the drug placement unit of the dosing calendar 100, 101, 102 at the pharmacy (dispensing room) of the patient's pharmacy (dispensing room), and the dosing calendar 100, 101, 102 in a state where the drug is stored In the case of bringing in the medicine, the pharmacist inserts a predetermined medicine into each medicine placement unit according to the form of the medication calendar 100, 101, 102.

Each medicine package 7 is attached with medicine package identification information for specifying each medicine package 7. That is, in each medicine package 7, a doser identification display 11 for identifying the doser at a position that can be visually recognized as medicine package identification information, and a dose timing identification display 12 for identifying the dose timing are described in characters.
Specifically, the characters “Muramatsu”, which is the name of the user, are printed as the user identification display 11. Further, characters such as "morning" and "daytime" are displayed as the dosing timing specification display 12. Each medicine package 7 is distinguished from the others by these characters and the like.
Furthermore, in the present embodiment, the user-specific identification pattern 15 is displayed as medicine package identification information that can identify each medicine package 7. That is, the user usage specification pattern 15 is displayed as the user identification display and the dose timing identification display. The user usage specification pattern 15 is a two-dimensional barcode. In the two-dimensional bar code of the user usage specification pattern 15, information that can specify the user and the timing of taking is written. Each medicine package 7 is also distinguished from the others by the two-dimensional barcode. Therefore, the two-dimensional barcode (user's usage specification pattern 15) functions as medicine package identification information for specifying the medicine package 7. The two-dimensional barcode (user usage specification pattern 15) is one of the identifiers for specifying the medicine package 7.
Here, "the user and the timing of the dose can be specified" means not only when the information is directly written in the user usage specification pattern 15 but also with the identifier included in the user usage specification pattern 15 as a key. The case where it is possible to retrieve information on the doser and the dose timing from the information sources of

The drug package 7 is separated from the drug package band 8 and stored in the corresponding drug storage unit 3 of the dosing calendar 1 by a hand such as a pharmacist.
As described above, since the medicine container 3 is transparent, in the state where the medicine package 7 is put in the medicine container 3, the person identification display 11 and the medicine timing identification display 12 as shown in FIG. 3 (b). And user usage specification pattern 15 (identifier) can be confirmed from the outside.

Next, the medicine arrangement confirmation system 16 of the first embodiment will be described.
The drug placement confirmation system 16 is roughly divided into a portable terminal 20 and a central apparatus 21.
The mobile terminal 20 is a mobile computer such as a notebook computer, or an electronic terminal that can be carried by a user such as a smartphone or a mobile phone. Also, accessories may be externally attached to these. For example, the portable terminal 20 may be one having a barcode reader externally attached to a notebook computer, a smartphone, a mobile phone, or the like.
As shown in FIG. 5, a camera (shooting means) 18 is built in or externally attached to the portable terminal 20, and has a shooting function. In addition, a computer 22 is built in the mobile terminal 20. A CPU 22 and a storage unit 25 are built in the computer 22 built in the mobile terminal 20.

The storage unit 25 of the computer 22 of the portable terminal 20 stores a computer program that functions as the comparison unit 28.
That is, it has a function of comparing the information on the layout of the medicine package obtained by the camera (shooting means) 18 with the normal position information obtained from the headquarters apparatus 21.
The portable terminal 20 has a communication means 26 and can communicate with the main device 21 through the Internet or the like.

The headquarters apparatus 21 is an apparatus mainly composed of the computer 27 as shown in FIG. The computer 27 of the main device 21 includes a CPU 30 and storage means 31.
The storage means 31 of the main device 21 functions as a medicine package arrangement information storage means 33.
In the medicine package arrangement information storage means 33, information on the layout of the state in which each medicine package 7 is properly accommodated in the corresponding medicine accommodation unit 3 of the medication calendar 1 is stored as regular position information. That is, in the storage means 31, the regular position information of the medicine package 7 when each medicine package 7 is properly accommodated in the corresponding medicine container 3 of the medicine set device (the medication calendar 1 etc.) I remember. In other words, the positional relationship between the drug set (such as the dosing calendar 1) and the drug package 7 when each drug package 7 is properly stored in the drug set (such as the dosing calendar 1) is stored for a plurality of drug sets. ing.
In other words, the storage unit 31 stores an identifier for identifying the medicine package 7, an identifier of the medicine set tool indicated by the medicine set tool identification display 17, and regular position information in association with each other.

For example, which medicine set (dosing calendar 1, etc.) is for who or for which institution, and is used when, and the type and layout are stored in the medicine package location information storage means 33 It is done. Furthermore, the medicine package placement information storage means 33 stores in which medicine container 3 the medicine package 7 along the prescription is stored.
For example, as shown in FIG. 3, the medicine package 7 taken in "morning morning" is housed at the intersection of the "moon" axis and the "morning" axis, and the medicine packaging 7 taken in "morning day" is As shown in FIG. 3, it is stored that it is stored at the intersection of the "moon" axis and the "day" axis.
In addition, information (information indicating that it is an empty space) of the drug storage unit 3 of the drug setting device in which the drug package 7 is not stored is also stored.
For example, in the case where there is a day when you do not take a medicine or a time when you do not take a medicine (morning, noon, etc.), the information is also stored in the storage means 31.
According to the embodiment, according to the prescription of the patient Muramatsu, no medicine is taken on Friday night. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 3, the medicine container 3A at the position corresponding to the night on the Friday of Muramatsu of the dosing calendar 1 is in the shape of a vacant room.
Information indicating that the medicine container 3 at a position corresponding to the night on the Friday of Muramatsu of the medication calendar 1 is an empty room is also stored in the storage means 31.

In addition, the regular position information of the drug package 7 when each drug package 7 is properly stored in the drug storage unit 3 includes other relative positions such as the arrangement of the distance and angle of each drug storage unit 3 and drug package 7 with each other. The positional relationship with the substrate 2 is also stored. That is, not only the relative relationship between each drug storage unit 3 and each drug package 7 but also the relative relationship between the base material 2 and each drug storage unit 3 and each drug package 7 is stored as regular position information.
That is, not only in terms of what matrix each drug storage unit 3 or each drug package 7 constitutes, but in which location of the substrate 2 each drug storage unit 3 or each drug package 7 is stored ing.

Further, the regular position information may be an identifier that specifies the medicine package 7 and position information of the medicine package 7 when the medicine package 7 is correctly stored.
The regular position information indicates the relative positional relationship between the base 2 and the medicine package 7. Specifically, the predetermined position of the medicine package 7 in the state of being accommodated in the medicine container 3 from the predetermined position of the base material 2 (for example, any of the four corners of the base material 2) It indicates the distance in the vertical direction and the horizontal direction to any one of the four corners or the user usage specification pattern 15 or the like. Instead of the predetermined position of the medicine package 7, a predetermined position (for example, any one of the four corners of the medicine container 3) of the medicine container 3 in which the medicine package 7 should be accommodated may be adopted.
The information on the vacant space is, for example, the distance between the predetermined position of the base material 2 and the predetermined position of the medicine container 3 to be the vacant space in the vertical direction and the lateral direction.

Next, the function of the medicine arrangement confirmation system 16 of the present embodiment will be described along the procedure of use.
The user carries the medication calendar 1 containing the medicine package 7 at the patient's home, a hospital, a facility, etc. Here, the user carries the portable terminal 20. On the other hand, the headquarters apparatus 21 is placed in the pharmacy.
Then, as shown in FIG. 3A, the user uses the photographing means 18 of the portable terminal 20 to photograph the medication calendar 1 in which the medicine package 7 has been accommodated.
In principle, imaging is performed from the front with the entire dosing calendar 1 as one screen.

At the time of imaging, a predetermined position of the substrate 2 is included in the imaging range so that it can be determined whether or not the positional relationship between the medicine package 7 and the substrate 2 corresponds to normal positional information.
For example, as shown in FIG. 4A, a rectangular frame 200 is displayed on the monitor screen of the camera (shooting means) 18 of the portable terminal 20.
As shown in FIG. 4B, the shutter is released with the sides of the dosing calendar 1 substantially aligned with the frame 200. As shown in FIG. 4C, if the image of the medication calendar 1 protrudes from the frame 200 or if the image of the medication calendar 1 is too small relative to the frame 200 as shown in FIG. 4D, an error occurs. .

Then, the computer 22 of the portable terminal 20 analyzes the photographed two-dimensional barcode of the set instrument identification display 17 and specifies the photographed medication calendar 1 by the identifier and the identification information included in the two-dimensional barcode. Then, the information is transmitted to the computer 27 of the main apparatus 21 by the communication means 26 of the portable terminal 20, received by the communication means 32 of the main apparatus 21, and inputted to the computer 27 of the main apparatus 21.
The information of the two-dimensional bar code of the set tool identification display 17 which has been photographed may be directly transmitted to the computer 27 of the main apparatus 21 and the two-dimensional bar code may be analyzed on the main apparatus 21 side.

Then, the computer 27 of the central apparatus 21 specifies the medication set identifier indicated by the medication set identification display obtained by the analysis of the two-dimensional bar code and the medication calendar 1 corresponding to the medication calendar 1 identified. The normal position information is read out from the storage means 31 which is the medicine package placement information storage means 33.
Subsequently, the read regular position information is sent to the computer 22 of the portable terminal 20 by the communication means 26, 32 and temporarily stored in the storage means 25 of the portable terminal 20.

Further, the computer 22 of the portable terminal 20 acquires information on the layout of each actual medicine package from the captured video.
Specifically, the characters of the photographed user identification indication 11 and the characters of the dosing timing identification indication are analyzed, and the arrangement is detected. The arrangement includes the positional relationship between each medicine package 7 and each medicine container 3 as well as the relative position such as the arrangement of the distance, angle, etc. of the medicine packages 7 with each other. The arrangement includes the positional relationship between each medicine package 7 and the substrate 2. That is, the relationship of where each medicine package 7 is located on the base material 2 is included.

  For example, the captured image is analyzed, and the vertical and horizontal distances from the predetermined position (for example, side or corner) of the base material 2 to the position of the medicine package 7 for each medicine package 7 are specified. . The predetermined position of the substrate 2 may be marked or the like so that the computer 22 can specify the position from the photographed image.

The position of the medicine package 7 referred to here is, for example, a position on the image of medicine package identification information (specific pattern 15 for user's usage) attached to the medicine package 7.
The computer 22 associates the position of each medicine package 7 with the medicine package identification information (identifier) attached to the medicine package 7.
That is, the plurality of medicine packages 7 taken are individually identified by individual medicine package identification information (identifiers), and which medicine package 7 is located at which position of the substrate 2 is specified.

Then, the computer 22 of the portable terminal 20 compares the layout of each actual medicine package obtained from the photographed video with the normal position information temporarily stored in the storage means 25 of the portable terminal 20.
In particular, the positional relationship between each medicine package 7 of each actual medicine package 7 and each medicine container 3 of normal position information temporarily stored in the storage means 25 of the portable terminal 20 is compared. That is, the information on the position of the substrate 2 where each medicine package 7 temporarily stored in the storage means 25 of the portable terminal 20 is compared with the position of the actual medicine package 7 with respect to the substrate 2.
If the two match, a display indicating that the arrangement of each medicine package 7 is correct is displayed on the portable terminal 20, and if both are different, a message to that effect is displayed to notify the user.
Specifically, if the position and identifier of each drug package 7 photographed, the position of drug package 7 to be there and the identifier match, the arrangement of each drug package 7 is the portable terminal 20 A display showing correctness is made, and if both are different, a display is made to notify the user.
Of course, the criteria for judging that the two match are acceptable not only in the case of a perfect match but also in the case of slight deviation.
This is because the medicine container 3 is large relative to the medicine package 7 and the position of the medicine package 7 is not constant even if the medicine container 3 is properly accommodated.

When the medicine package 7 is detected from the position indicated by the vacant room information or in the vicinity thereof, it is displayed that the medicine package 7 is accommodated in the medicine container 3 to be an empty room.
According to the present embodiment, it is confirmed that each medicine package 7 is held by the regular base material 2 (drug setting tool), and each medicine package 7 is correctly accommodated without error in the accommodation position of each medicine package 7 Be done.

  In the above-described embodiment, the computer program functioning as the comparison means 28 is stored in the storage means 25 of the computer 22 of the portable terminal 20, but may be stored in the computer 27 of the main unit 21 and then imported. Further, the process of comparing may be executed by the computer 27 of the main unit device 21.

  In the embodiment described above, the two-dimensional bar code of the set identification 17 is analyzed to identify the photographed dosing calendar 1, but conversely, the dosing calendar 1 to be accommodated from the user usage specification pattern 15 of the medicine package 7 And the regular position information of the dosing calendar 1 may be read out by the computer 27 of the headquarters apparatus 21. Further, information on the dosing calendar 1 to be stored directly and the position to be stored may be read out from the user-specific pattern 15 of the medicine package 7.

Although the first embodiment described above uses the first type personal medication calendar as the medicine set device, it is also possible to use the second type and the third type medicine set device described above. it can.
FIGS. 6 and 7 show a medicine set (dosing calendar 40) using a second type of one-day dosing calendar.
The format of the medication calendar 40 is a daily medication calendar for a plurality of users, and the days of the week to be taken are largely described. Further, in the medication calendar 40, the medicine containers 3 are arranged in a matrix formed by the name of the user and the timing axis of the medicine, and the medicine container 3 is a specific one determined based on the person and the timing of medicine. In position.
Also in the medication calendar 40, a set identification display 17 for identifying the medication calendar 40 is attached at a visible position on the upper left.
Further, information specifying which facility is used for the dosing calendar 40 is written in the set identification display 17.

Also in this embodiment, the two-dimensional bar code can provide information for specifying the type of dosing calendar 40 and the facility to be used, but all or part of these can be specified by the characters written on the substrate 2 It is also good.
The form of the medication calendar 40 may be specified by graphic recognition of the patient's arrangement written on the substrate 2, characters such as "morning" indicating the timing of taking, and the layout thereof.
In this case, in order to identify the user, "Muramatsu", "Waseda", "Arashi", "Fuji", "Ide", "Kirishima" and "Moroshi" are given the person identification display 11, and "morning" etc. The character of, and the layout function as the timing specification indication 12.

FIG. 8 and FIG. 9 show a medicine set (a medication calendar 41) using a third type medication point-by-dose medication calendar.
A plurality of medicine containers are also arranged in a matrix on the medication calendar 41. In the medication calendar 41, the patient's name is described in the vicinity of the medicine container 3, and the medicine container 3 is at a specific position determined based on the user and the timing of taking.
Also in the medication calendar 41, the setting tool identification display 17 for identifying the medication calendar 41 is attached to the visible position on the upper left.
Also, information specifying which facility is used for the dosing calendar 41 is written in the set identification display 17.

  Also in the present embodiment, the two-dimensional barcode can provide information for specifying the type of dosing calendar 41 and the facility to be used, but all or part of these can be specified using the characters written on the substrate 2 It is also good.

Next, referring to FIG. 2 (b) and FIGS. 10 to 12, as a second embodiment, a device is described in which it is possible to know whether or not the medicine package is in the proper position by visual observation of the user. Do.
In the second embodiment, a drug packaging band 50 as shown in FIG. 2 (b) is used. In the medicine package 50, the information printing unit 10 on which the prescription information is printed is at the top, followed by a medicine package arrangement information storage unit 51, and then a large number of medicine packages 52 follow.

The medicine package placement information storage means 51 is a pattern having a large number of squares. In the second embodiment, there are 33 squares. Some of the cells correspond to the medicine container 3. The squares other than the four corners are blank and filled.
The four corners filled in are for enabling the computer 22 to recognize the position of the medicine package placement information storage unit 51 from the image of the dosing calendar 55 taken by the photographing means 18.
The state of the grid other than the four corners is ON. Indicates OFF. In the second embodiment, the blank cell is in the ON state, and the filled cell is in the OFF state.
The state of the eyelids indicates whether or not the medicine package 7 is put in the medicine container 3. The filled squares indicate the medicine container 3 which should be empty.

  The squares 1 to 28 of the medicine package arrangement information storage means 51 indicate whether or not the medicine package 7 is put in each of the 28 medicine containers 3 of the medication calendar 55. Specifically, grid 1 of medicine package arrangement information storage means 51 corresponds to "monthly morning" of medication calendar 55, and grid 2 of medicine package location information storage means 51 corresponds to "monthly day of medication calendar 55. The eyes 27 of the medicine package arrangement information storage means 51 are "day for night" of the medication calendar 55, and the eyes 28 of the medicine package placement information storage means 51 are "day before sleep" of the medication calendar 55. In the following, it is indicated whether or not the medicine package 7 is put.

Further, as shown in FIG. 12, the medicine package 52 adopted in the second embodiment is also printed with the user identification display 11 described above, the dose timing specification display 12 and the user's usage specification pattern 15.
In addition, in the medicine package 52 adopted in the second embodiment, a medicine container designation display 60 and a graphic piece 61 are displayed. The graphic piece 61 is, for example, part of a specific graphic such as a circle, a triangle, or a square.
The shape of the graphic piece 61 is different for each medicine package 52.
It is desirable that the graphic piece 61 be printed by a medicine packaging device.

The medicine container designation display 60 is a graphic composed of a plurality of cells. In the present embodiment, there are nine squares.
In the present embodiment, there are blank squares and filled squares. The grid indicates binary numbers. That is, a binary number is represented by a filled square and a blank square. The medicine container designation display 60 is different for each medicine package 7.

The medication calendar (drug set) 55 shown in FIGS. 10 and 11 is a personal medication calendar according to the first type, and has the same configuration as that of the previous embodiment.
The medication calendar 55 employed in the second embodiment additionally has a placement information placement pocket 57.
In each medicine container 3, a graphic piece 63 is displayed as shown in FIG. The graphic piece 63 is, for example, part of a specific graphic such as a circle, a triangle, or a square.
When the correct medicine package 52 is inserted, the graphic pieces 63 of each medicine container 3 match the design as shown in FIG. 12 (b) to form a specific shape.

Further, in the vicinity of each medicine container 3, a medicine container identification display 65 is described. The graphic of the medicine container identification display 65 is similar to the medicine container designation display 60 of the medicine package 52. Therefore, the medicine container identification display 65 is different for each medicine container 3.
The medicine container identification display 65 of each medicine container 3 is identical to the medicine container designation display 60 of the medicine package 52 inserted therein.

In the second embodiment, the medicine package placement information storage means 51 is cut out and inserted into the placement information placement pocket 57 of the medication calendar 55. The placement information placement pocket 57 is transparent, and the medicine package placement information storage means 51 can be visually recognized from the outside.
The medicine package 52 is inserted into the corresponding medicine container 3. Here, when the medicine package 52 is disposed in the medicine container 3 corresponding to the true, the graphic piece 61 of the medicine package 52 and the graphic piece 63 of each medicine container 3 combine to form a specific shape.
Further, since the graphic of the medicine container designation display 60 of the medicine package 52 and the graphic of the medicine container identification display 65 of each medicine container 3 are the same, the error can be easily understood.

Also in the second embodiment, as in the first embodiment, the medication calendar 52 containing the medicine package 52 is photographed using the photographing unit 18 of the portable terminal 20 and acquired from the main apparatus 21 by the comparison unit 28. The registered regular position information is compared to determine whether the position of the medicine package 52 is correct.
In the second embodiment, in addition to the above determination method, the figure of the medicine package arrangement information storage unit 51 is recognized, and it is confirmed that there is no medicine package 52 in the medicine container 3 which should be empty.
That is, the camera (shooting means) 18 of the portable terminal 20 is used to shoot the dosing calendar 55 to which the medicine package 52 has been attached. The picture of the medicine package placement information storage means 51 is recognized by photographing, and the medicine container 3 which should be in the vacant state is confirmed.
Then, with reference to the information on the layout of each actual medicine package 52 obtained from the photographed image, it is checked whether the medicine package 52 is present in the medicine container 3 that should be in the vacant state.
If there is a medicine package 52 in the medicine container 3 that should be in the vacant state, an error display is made and a notification is given.

Specifically, the camera (shooting means) 18 of the portable terminal 20 is used to shoot the dosing calendar 55 to which the drug package 52 has been attached. Here, predetermined positions of the medicine arrangement information storage unit 51 and the base material 2 are set in the imaging range.
The portable terminal 20 recognizes the figure of the medicine package arrangement information storage unit 51 by photographing, and confirms the medicine accommodating unit 3 which should be in the vacant state and the medicine accommodating unit 3 which should accommodate the medicine package 7. The positional relationship between each medicine container identification display 65 in the vicinity of each medicine container 3 and the predetermined position of the base material 2 is stored in the storage means 25 in advance.
The portable terminal 20 specifies the position of the medicine storage unit identification display 65 attached in the vicinity of the medicine storage unit 3 in which the medicine package 7 is to be stored, from the positional relationship on the photographed image. The portable terminal 20 determines whether or not there is a medicine container designation display 60 having a shape corresponding to the specified medicine container identification display 65 on the photographed image.
If the medicine container designation display 60 having a shape corresponding to the display 65 is present in the vicinity of each specified medicine container identification display 65, the portable terminal 20 determines that the medicine package is properly accommodated, For example, it informs that the medicine package is not stored properly.
In addition, the portable terminal 20 specifies the position of the medicine container identification display 65 attached in the vicinity of the medicine container 3 that should be in the vacant state. The portable terminal 20 reports an error if there is any medicine container designation display 60 in the vicinity of each specified medicine container identification display 65 on the photographed image.

  Further, the computer 22 of the portable terminal 20 analyzes the photographed image, and compares the figure of the medicine container designation display 60 of each medicine package 52 with the graphic of the medicine container identification display 65 of each medicine container 3. If the two are not identical, some error display is performed.

In the second embodiment, it is determined whether the position of the medicine package 52 is correct by comparing the information on the layout of each medicine package 52 obtained by photographing with the normal position information acquired from the headquarters apparatus 21. The layout comparison and confirmation and the individual confirmation for comparing the graphic of the medicine container designation display 60 of each medicine package 52 and the graphic of the medicine container identification display 65 of each medicine container 3 are used in combination.
However, even if individual confirmation is performed to compare the graphic of the drug storage unit designation display 60 of each drug package 52 with the graphic of the drug storage unit identification display 65 of each drug storage unit 3, the drug with a considerable probability It is possible to detect an insertion error of the package 52.
Also, the medicine packaging 52 is inserted incorrectly with considerable probability even by only checking the vacant room based on the graphic recognition of the medicine package arrangement information storage means 51 and the information of the actual layout of the medicine packaging 52 obtained from the photographed image. It can be detected.

In the first embodiment and the second embodiment described above, the information specifying the person taking the medicine and the timing of taking is written in the two-dimensional bar code (the user usage specification pattern 15) as the medicine package specifying information of the medicine package 7 In addition to this, it is also recommended to write drug package / set equipment related information related to the relationship between the drug package 7 and the dosing calendar 1, 40, 41, 55 to hold it (third Embodiment).
For example, as the medicine package / setting device related information, information specifying the medication calendar 1 for holding each medicine package 7 is directly written in the two-dimensional bar code (user's usage specification pattern 15) of the medicine package 7. Specifically, information is written that can identify the format of the medication calendar 1 to be held by each drug package 7 and who is the medication calendar 1 and for when it will be used. . Alternatively, the medication calendar 1 may have a serial number or a code, and may be information that can directly know the medication calendar 1 number or code to be held by each medicine package 7. In short, medicine package / setting device related information that can be traced to the medication calendar 1 to be held by the medicine package 7 is written in the two-dimensional barcode of the medicine package 7.

Furthermore, the set position related information related to the position of the drug package 7 to be held in the dosing calendar 1, 40, 41, 55 is also directly written in the two-dimensional bar code (user usage specific pattern 15) of the drug package 7. May be
For example, among the information corresponding to the regular position information stored in the medicine package arrangement information storage means 33 described above, the information on the position where the medicine package should be stored is written in the two-dimensional bar code (user usage specification pattern 15) It is done.
For example, at which position of the base 2 the drug package 7 is held, for example, how far away the drug package 7 is held from a plurality of reference positions such as the upper side and the side of the base 2 It is written in a two-dimensional barcode.
Of course, the medicine package / setting device related information and the set position related information may be written in a bar code, a code, a character or the like different from the user usage specification pattern 15.

  According to this configuration (third embodiment), whether or not the medicine package 7 is correctly accommodated in the direct dosing calendar 1, 40, 41, 55 without relying on the medicine package arrangement information storage means 33 of the headquarters device 21 Can be confirmed.

Also in the third embodiment, the user uses the imaging unit 18 of the portable terminal 20 to image the dosing calendars 1, 40, 41, 55, etc. in which the medicine package 7 has been stored. The photographing method is the same as the above-described case, and as shown in FIG. 4B, the shutter is released in a state in which each side of the dosing calendar 1 substantially matches the frame 200. Alternatively, when photographing, the position of a predetermined reference of the base material 2 is set as the imaging range so that it can be determined whether or not the positional relationship between the drug package 7 and the base material 2 corresponds to regular positional information. include.
For example, a large number of medicine packages 7 are accommodated in the medication calendar 1, and a large number of medicine packages 7 are photographed by the photographing means 18.
In the third embodiment, the drug package is analyzed from information for individually analyzing the two-dimensional barcode of each drug package 7 taken and specifying the dosing calendar included in the drug package / set-related information of each drug package 7. Identify the dosing calendar to accommodate 7
On the other hand, the medication calendar containing the medicine package 7 is specified from the set identification display 17 of the medication calendar being taken. Then, the two are compared to determine whether each medicine package 7 is contained in the correct medication calendar.

Furthermore, in the third embodiment, the two-dimensional barcode of each medicine package 7 taken is analyzed individually, and the position of the medicine package 7 to be held on the dosing calendar 1 is specified.
On the other hand, the position of the medicine package 7 relative to the base 2 is detected from the photographed image. Then, the two are compared to determine whether each medicine package 7 is stored at the correct position.

  In the third embodiment, the medicine package and set device related information and the set position related information are attached to the medicine package 7, and the medicine package and set equipment related information is the medicine set device 1, 1 to hold the medicine package 7. The set position related information is a drug placement confirmation system including information on the position of the drug package to be held by the drug set 1, 40, 41, 55, including information specifying 40, 41, 55.

  In the third embodiment, since the medicine package identification information is not used to determine whether or not the medicine package 7 is contained in the correct medicine container 3 of the correct dosage calendar 1, the user method specific pattern 15 includes the medicine The package specific information may not be included.

The medicine package / setting device related information related to the relation between the medicine package 7 and the medication calendars 1, 40, 41, 55 to hold the medicine package 7 may be attached to the medication calendar 1. That is, information as to which medicine package 7 should be held by the medication calendar 1, 40, 41, 55 may be attached to any part of the medication calendar 1. For example, the information may be written in a two-dimensional bar code of the setting device identification display 17 (fourth embodiment).
The set position related information related to the position of the medicine package 7 may also be attached to the dosing calendar 1 side.

That is, which part of the medicine package 7 is held in which position of the medicine dosage calendar 1, 40, 41, 55 may be attached to any part of the medicine dosage calendar 1. As specific information, information in which medicine package identification information and position information are associated may be attached to any part of the medication calendar 1. For example, it may be written in the two-dimensional bar code of the set tool identification display 17.
