And the patient who received the medication can take the medicine as instructed by looking at the printed information.

Registered Utility Model No. 3030269

  However, if the patient has another disease that he / she is not aware of, it cannot be cured by taking the administered drug. On the other hand, patients suffering from some kind of illness and taking drugs are considered more interested in health than healthy people, and are likely to facilitate early detection and treatment of illness.

  In view of this, the present invention provides a self-inspection information display section on the back of the medicine bag so that the patient can inspect the disease himself.

  Examples of the self-examination information display unit include at least a fixation point as a focal point of the patient's eyes and a visual field check mark for inspecting visual field defects, and an Amsler chart for inspecting a macular region. Included, and at least the information of the question consisting of the question items for the patient and the evaluation criteria information consisting of the evaluation criteria of the answers to the question items, but are not limited to these. All the information that allows inspection is included. When the self-inspection information display unit includes a fixation point and a visual field check mark, the visual field check mark is arranged on a circular arc centered on the fixed viewpoint, and the circular arc has a plurality of concentric circles centered on the fixed viewpoint. It is desirable that the arc is. Further, it is desirable that the visual field check marks are symmetrically arranged with respect to a horizontal reference line passing through the fixed viewpoint. Furthermore, it is desirable that the self-inspection information display unit has appropriate distance setting support information for assisting in setting the distance from the medicine bag when inspecting a visual field defect. As an example of the appropriate distance setting support information, information composed of two blind spot check marks and a fixation mark that is positioned between the two blind spot check marks and becomes the focal point of the patient's eyes is given as an example. If the self-examination information includes an Amsler chart for examining macular disease, multiple visual field checkmarks for inspecting visual field defects may be printed in or on the Amsler chart. desirable. In this case, the plurality of visual field check marks are composed of an upper visual field check mark group and a lower visual field check mark group, and the multiple visual field check marks constituting the upper visual field check mark group and the lower visual field check mark group are Amsler charts. It is desirable to be arranged so as to approach the horizontal center line passing through the center of the Amsler chart as it approaches the patient's nose side from the center. It is desirable that the plurality of visual field check marks constituting the upper visual field check mark group and the lower visual field check mark group are arranged on the upper and lower objects with respect to the horizontal reference line. The self-inspection information display unit is preferably provided with two pieces of inspection guide information that are printed in directions that are reversed up and down and guide the self-inspection method.

  Some self-examination information display units include at least question information consisting of question items for a patient and evaluation criteria information consisting of evaluation criteria for answers to the question items.

  In the present invention, since it has a structure that has a medication information display part on the front surface and a self-inspection information display part on the back surface, the original function of the medicine bag that stores the medicine and enables the patient to grasp the usage and dosage of the medicine In addition, by prompting the patient to examine the disease, the disease can be detected early, thereby enabling early treatment. In particular, patients who have some kind of illness and are receiving medication are considered more interested in health than healthy people, so it is more effective to have a self-examination information display in the medicine bag. .

  When the self-inspection information display unit is provided with a fixation point and a visual field check mark, it is possible to inspect for visual field abnormality. Especially for glaucoma, the visual field is often missing from the nasal side, so if the visual field check mark is placed on a plurality of concentric arcs centered on the fixation point, it can be determined whether the glaucoma is present. It becomes easy. In addition, since glaucoma has a feature that the degree of visual field abnormality is different above and below the horizontal reference line, if the visual field check mark is arranged symmetrically with respect to the horizontal reference line passing through the fixed viewpoint, either up or down or By checking whether both visual field check marks are missing from the visual field, it is possible to more reliably determine whether or not the glaucoma is present.

  When the Amsler chart is included in the self-examination information, it is possible to examine the macular region of the eye depending on how the Amsler chart is seen. When a visual field check mark is printed in addition to the Amsler chart, the presence or absence of a glaucoma suspicion can also be determined based on the presence or absence of a visual field defect. In particular, in the case of glaucoma, the visual field is often missing from the nasal side, so as the upper visual field check mark group and the lower visual field check mark group approach the patient's nasal side from the center of the Amsler chart, If it is arranged so as to approach the horizontal center line passing through the center, it is easy to determine whether or not it is glaucoma. In addition, glaucoma has a feature that the degree of visual field abnormalities is different above and below the horizontal center line, so if the upper visual field check mark group and the lower visual field chuck mark are arranged so as to approach the horizontal center line, By checking whether one of the visual field check marks is missing from the visual field, it is possible to more reliably determine whether or not the glaucoma is present. Furthermore, the visual field check mark group in the Amsler chart is printed on a portion of the early symptom of glaucoma that is missing from the visual field, which is useful for early detection of glaucoma.

  As a first example, a medicine bag 20 shown in FIG. 1 will be described. The medicine bag 20 is a bag for storing the medicine and delivering it to the patient. As shown in FIG. 1, the surface of the medicine bag 20 is the patient name information 21 on which the name of the patient is written and the usage and dosage of the medicine. The dosage information display unit 20a including at least the usage / dose information 22 is configured. The numerical value in the frame of the usage / dose information 22 indicates the number to be taken at one time. The usage / dose information 22 in the example of FIG. 1 includes a column in which the name of the medicine is printed, but this is not essential. Also, a photo of the medicine may be printed instead of the medicine name or together with the medicine name.

  As shown in FIG. 2, the back surface of the medicine bag 20 constitutes a self-examination information display unit 20b for the patient himself to conduct a self-examination of the disease. The self-inspection information display unit 20b includes at least self-inspection information 23. In the example of FIG. 2, appropriate distance setting support information 24 that supports the setting of the distance from the medicine bag when inspecting a visual field defect, First inspection guide information 25 and second inspection guide information 26 for guiding a self-inspection method are provided. The direction of the characters constituting the first examination guide information 25 and the direction of the characters constituting the second examination guide information 26 are printed in directions that are mutually inverted in the vertical direction.

  The self-examination information 23 in the example of FIG. 2 is information for examining whether or not there is a suspicion of glaucoma based on visual field defects. It is constituted by a visual field check mark 28. The plurality of visual field check marks 28 are arranged symmetrically above and below a horizontal reference line 29 extending in the horizontal direction from the fixed viewpoint 27 when the medicine bag is viewed sideways as shown in FIG. The upper visual field chuck mark group 30 includes a plurality of visual field chuck marks 28 and a lower visual field check mark group 31 includes a plurality of visual field chuck marks 28 disposed below the horizontal reference line 29. The visual field check mark 28 in the illustrated example is formed in a star shape, but may be any shape.

  In the orientation shown in FIG. 2, the medicine bag 20 is in a state where the first inspection guide information 25 is turned upside down, and the second inspection guide information 26 is readable. Therefore, at this time, the left eye is inspected according to the readable second inspection guide information 26. On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 3, the medicine bag 20 is rotated 180 degrees from the state of FIG. 2, and the second inspection guide information 26 is turned upside down, and the first inspection guide information 25 is readable. The right eye can be inspected according to the first inspection guide information 25 of the readable person.

  The visual field check mark 28 is arranged at a position where it can be determined whether or not there is visual field obstruction due to glaucoma. Specifically, each visual field check mark 28 is arranged on a plurality of concentric circular arcs having different diameters around the fixed viewpoint 27. In addition, inspection is possible only by placing a visual field check mark on only one circular arc, but in order to accurately grasp the field loss and its location, visual field check on more concentric circular arcs. It is desirable to place a mark.

  2, the left side of the fixation point 27 is the patient's left ear side, and the right side of the appropriate distance setting support information 24 is the patient's nasal side. On the other hand, in the direction of FIG. 3, the right side of the fixation point 27 is the patient's right ear side, and the left side of the appropriate distance setting support information 24 is the patient's nose side.

  The appropriate distance setting support information 24 is information useful for setting the distance between the patient's eyes and the self-examination information 23 when performing self-examination using the self-examination information 23. As shown in FIG. The medicine bag 20 is used in a state in which the longitudinal direction of the medicine bag 20 is vertical (hereinafter simply referred to as “longitudinal”). The fixation mark 32 is located at the center in the short direction, and the right and left sides thereof. The first blind spot check mark 33 and the second blind spot check mark 34 are located. The fixation mark 32 is located between the first blind spot check mark 33 and the second blind spot check mark 34.

  As shown in FIG. 4, a patient who is going to perform a glaucoma self-examination first holds the medicine bag 20 vertically, closes one eye, and looks at the fixation mark 32. For example, when the left eye is closed and the distance between the eye and the medicine bag is changed by moving the medicine bag 20 in the front-rear direction while viewing the fixation mark 32 with the right eye, the right second blind spot check mark 34 is displayed at a certain distance. Disappears. This is because there is a Marriott blind spot (a part on the retina where the nerve enters the eyeball where no light can be felt because there is no photoreceptor cell) that is not visible even to a healthy person. This allows you to experience what it is like not to see.

  Next, the medicine bag 20 is rotated 90 degrees to the left while maintaining the distance between the eye and the medicine bag 20 when the second blind spot check mark 34 disappears. Then, the medicine bag 20 is in the direction shown in FIG. At this time, the first examination guide information 25 can be read, and the right eye examination is performed with the left eye closed according to the instruction by the first examination guidance information 25.

  In the state of FIG. 3, it is inspected whether or not the visual field check marks 28 are all visible when the fixation point 27 is viewed with only the right eye. If all of the visual field check marks are not visible and some are missing from the visual field, it can be determined that there is a suspicion of glaucoma. In particular, whether or not visual field check marks located above and below the fixation point 27 are visible is important for the detection of glaucoma.

  For example, in the appearance 35 shown in FIG. 5, the invisible region 36 which is a shadowed portion is an invisible region. In this patient, the upper visual field check mark group 30 is visible but the lower visual check mark group 30 is visible. Since the visual field check mark group 31 is missing from the visual field, it can be determined that there is a suspicion of glaucoma.

  When the left eye is inspected, as shown in FIG. 4, hold the medicine bag 20 vertically, close the right eye and look at the fixation mark 32 only with the left eye, move the medicine bag 20 in the front-rear direction, The distance when the first blind spot check mark 33 disappears is grasped. Then, while maintaining the distance at that time, the medicine bag 20 is rotated 90 degrees to the right to obtain the orientation shown in FIG. At this time, the second inspection guide information 26 is read, and according to the instruction by the second inspection guide information 26, the left eye is inspected while the right eye is closed to inspect whether all the visual field check marks 28 are visible. To do.

  As a second example, a medicine bag 1 shown in FIG. 6 will be described. Although not shown, the surface of the medicine bag 1 constitutes a dose information display section similar to the medicine bag 20 shown in FIG. On the other hand, the back surface of the medicine bag 1 constitutes a self-inspection information display portion 1b shown in FIG.

  The self-examination information 2 in the example of FIG. 6 includes an Amsler chart 3 which is a test table for inspecting a disease of the macular region composed of a plurality of grid-like tables, a center mark 4 at the center of the Amsler chart 3, A plurality of visual field check marks 5 are included.

  The visual field check mark 5 is a mark for inspecting a visual field defect and is printed in and on the Amsler chart 3. Although the visual field check mark 5 in the illustrated example is formed in a star shape, it may have any shape.

  The plurality of visual field check marks 5 on the side of the Amsler chart 3 constitute an upper visual field check mark group 5a and a lower visual field check mark group 5b. The plurality of visual field check marks 5 in the Amsler chart 3 constitute an upper visual field check mark group 5c and a lower visual field check mark group 5d.

  The plurality of visual field check marks 5 constituting the upper visual field check mark group 5a are obliquely downward from the side of the uppermost mass of the Amsler chart 3 as it moves away from the Amsler chart 3, that is, as it approaches the patient's nose side. It arrange | positions so that it may descend | fall and may approach the horizontal centerline 4a which passes along the center mark 4. FIG. On the other hand, the plurality of visual field check marks 5 constituting the lower visual field check mark group 5b rises obliquely upward from the side of the lowermost square of the Amsler chart 3 as it approaches the patient's nose side, and the horizontal center line 4a. It is arranged to approach. The plurality of visual field check marks 5 constituting the upper visual field check mark group 5a and the lower visual field check mark group 5b are arranged symmetrically with respect to the horizontal center line 4a.

  The upper visual field check mark group 5c and the lower visual field check mark group 5d are printed inside the Amsler chart 3, and a plurality of visual field check marks 5 constituting these are arranged vertically symmetrically with respect to the horizontal center line 4a. These are arranged so as to approach the horizontal center line 4a as they approach the nose side of the patient.

  Above and below the Amsler chart 3, the first examination guide information 6 and the second examination guide information 7 comprising information for guiding the self-examination method to the patient are printed. The direction of the characters constituting the first examination guide information 6 and the direction of the characters constituting the second examination guide information 7 are in a relationship in which they are reversed in the vertical direction.

  On the left side of the upper visual field check mark group 5a and the lower visual field check mark group 5b, inspection method information 8 indicating a self-inspection method is printed.

  For example, when performing a self-examination of the right eye, the medicine bag 1 is directed to the direction shown in FIG. 6, that is, the instruction regarding the left eye opposite to the eye to be inspected is “Please close your left eye (for right eye)” One inspection guide information 6 is directed to be read. On the other hand, when the left eye is inspected, as shown in FIG. 7, the direction of the medicine bag 1 is reversed up and down from the time of the right eye inspection, and the second is “Please close your right eye (for left eye)” The inspection guidance information 7 is set in a direction that can be read.

  When the left eye is closed as instructed in the first examination guide information 6, about 30 cm away from the medicine bag as instructed in the examination method information 8, and the center mark 4 at the center of the Amsler chart 3 is viewed with only the right eye from that position, For example, when the vertical line or horizontal line looks distorted as shown in FIG. 8 or the line appears to be cut off in the middle, age-related macular degeneration etc. may occur in the macula of the retina of the right eye. It can be judged that the symptoms are suspected. The same applies when viewed with the left eye.

  Further, when the center mark 4 is viewed with the right eye or the left eye, if all of the visual field check marks 5 are not visible and a part of the visual field check mark 5 is missing from the visual field, it can be determined that glaucoma is suspected. In this case, it may be determined that an intraocular pressure test (a test for measuring eye hardness), a fundus test (a test for viewing the inside of the eye), a visual field test (a test of the visible range for each eye), or the like is necessary. it can.

The upper visual field check mark group 5a and the lower visual field check mark group 5b are located on the nose side of the Amsler chart 3 when viewed with the right eye and the left eye. This is because in the case of visual field defect, the visual field is often lost from the nasal side, and checking the visual field on the nasal side is effective for glaucoma examination. On the other hand, the upper visual field check mark group 5c and the lower visual field check mark group 5d are provided at a place where the visual field is lost early in glaucoma. Also, the upper visual field check mark group 5a and the lower visual field check mark group 5b, and the upper visual field check mark group 5c and the lower visual field check mark group 5d are arranged vertically symmetrically in glaucoma above and below the horizontal center line. This is because it is effective to check which one of the upper and lower parts is missing because there is often a characteristic visual field defect in which the degree of abnormality is different.

  The test result 10 shown in FIG. 9 shows the range of the visual field of a glaucoma patient obtained by using an automatic perimeter in a range of 30 degrees at an examination distance of 33 cm, and the black part 11 is invisible. Yes. The visual field when the patient looks at the center mark 4 of the medicine bag 1 with the right eye is as shown in FIG. In FIG. 10, the invisible area 13 which is a shadowed part is an invisible area. As can be seen from FIG. 10, in this patient, the lower visual field check mark group 5b is visible, but the upper visual field check mark group 5a is not visible, so it can be determined that there is a suspicion of glaucoma. Further, the upper visual field check mark group 5c inside the Amsler chart 3 is not in the visual field. Thus, the usefulness to the glaucoma patient can be confirmed by lacking the upper visual field check mark groups 5a and 5c from the visual field in FIG.

  Next, as a third example, a medicine bag 14 shown in FIG. 11 will be described. Although not shown, the surface of the medicine bag 14 constitutes a medication information display section similar to the medicine bag 20 of FIG. On the other hand, the back surface constitutes a self-inspection information display unit 14b. The self-inspection information display unit 14 b includes self-inspection information 15. The self-examination information 15 in the example of FIG. 11 includes question information 16 including question items for a plurality of patients for checking whether or not hypertension, answer method information 17 indicating an answer method for the question items, Evaluation standard information 18 indicating evaluation standards for answers to the question items is included.

  The self-examination information 15 in the example of FIG. 11 is information for early detection of hypertension, and explanation information 19 is printed on the answering method information 17, and what kind of examination this examination is. It shows that.

  The patient can score hypertension based on the evaluation criteria information 18 by scoring each question item constituting the question information 16 according to the answer method indicated in the answer method information 17 to obtain a total score. Sex can be judged.

  Next, as a fourth example, a medicine bag 40 shown in FIG. 12 will be described. Although not shown, the surface of the medicine bag 40 constitutes a medication information display section similar to the medicine bag 20 of FIG. On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 12, the back surface of the medicine bag 40 constitutes a self-inspection information display section 40b. The self-inspection information display unit 40b is information for examining the degree of obesity from the value of BMI (Body Mass Index), and includes the question information 41 including one question item and the standard of obesity corresponding to the value of BMI. It consists of described evaluation criteria information 42.

  The patient obtains the BMI value according to the calculation formula indicated by the question information 41, and can recognize his / her obesity level based on the content indicated by the evaluation criterion information 42.

  As described above, the medicine bag of the present invention has a structure having a medication information display part on the front surface and a self-inspection information display part on the back surface, so that the medicine bag contains the medicine and grasps the usage / dose of the medicine. In addition to the original function, by prompting the patient to examine the disease, the disease can be detected early, thereby enabling early treatment. In particular, patients who have some kind of illness and are receiving medication are considered more interested in health than healthy people, so it is more effective to have a self-examination information display in the medicine bag. .

  In addition, the distinction between the front surface and the back surface in all the examples given so far is for convenience of explanation.
