Description

  The present invention relates to a nurse call system, and more particularly to a nurse call system including a display that displays patient information on a corridor lamp that displays a call from a patient.

  Conventionally, there is a nurse call system including a display for displaying patient information on a corridor lamp that displays a call from a patient (see, for example, Patent Document 1). In such a nurse call system, patient information displayed by the corridor lamp is set by the nurse call master unit, and the patient information of the patient room associated with the corridor lamp is displayed on the display by operating the sensor or directly displaying it. It was.

On the other hand, the patient information stored in the nurse call master is usually obtained from the nurse call server, but the patient information stored in the nurse call server is periodically changed from the ordering system installed separately or the data is changed. Each time it is sent, it is configured to receive and update information.
JP 200621029 A

The nurse call system that can display patient information by installing a display on the corridor lamp can obtain necessary information from the corridor lamp before nurses and doctors contact the patient, and can take appropriate measures. It was effective, and when it was not necessary, the patient information could be erased by using the display as a standby screen, etc., thus protecting privacy.
However, in the conventional nurse call system, the patient information displayed on the corridor lamp is information stored in advance in the nurse call master unit and is not updated to the latest information unless an update operation is performed separately. However, even if the update operation is performed and the latest information is displayed, the viewer cannot recognize that the information is changed information. Even if the patient information is changed, the changed information cannot be confirmed unless the corridor lamp corresponding to the patient's hospital room is operated.

  On the other hand, nurses have a long time to visit a patient or receive a call and perform necessary treatments, and have little time at a nurse station. For this reason, if a contact item such as business information occurs, it can be quickly communicated by using a mobile terminal carried by each nurse, but it is troublesome if it is necessary to communicate to multiple people, Since the display space of the portable terminal is small, there are many cases where confirmation work is troublesome, and there is a concern that the burden on the nurse will increase.

Therefore, in view of such a problem, the present invention can perform only predetermined display operation so that patient information displayed on the display provided in the corridor lamp can be limited to information updated by the ordering system. It is an object of the present invention to provide a nurse call system in which the changed patient information can be confirmed by any corridor lamp if it is a nurse in charge.
Further, according to the second aspect of the present invention, there is provided a nurse call system which can be confirmed by an arbitrary corridor lamp when business communication to the nurse occurs, and can confirm only the information associated with each nurse. For the purpose.

In order to solve the above problems, the invention of claim 1 is directed to a nurse call cordless handset for a patient to call a nurse, a corridor lamp for displaying the call, a nurse call parent phone for answering the call, and a device. In a nurse call system having a nurse call server that has a controller for controlling communication between them and obtains and stores patient information from an ordering system provided separately, the nurse and doctor ID information, and the nurse And an ID / patient storage means for storing the patient information of the doctor, and a display means for displaying the patient information on the corridor lamp, and ID information for receiving the ID information of the nurse or doctor upon receiving the input operation Providing means, ID specifying means for specifying a person from the ID information obtained by the ID information acquiring means, and ordering among patient information related to the specified person Characterized in that a display control means for initially displayed on the display unit of the corridor lamp which has received the ID information by selecting the change information from the stem.
According to this configuration, in any corridor lamp, a nurse or the like who has performed an ID input operation is determined, and updated information of patient information associated with the person is displayed on the display unit. Therefore, nurses and doctors can check the change information related to their patients by looking at the corridor lights, so that nursing work can be carried out smoothly, and doctors can confirm that changes are being communicated. I can confirm.

The invention of claim 2 has the business information creation means for creating the work information for each nurse and the work information storage means for storing the created work information in the invention of claim 1, and the display control means When the person specified by the ID specifying means is a nurse, control is performed such that business information related to the nurse is obtained from the business information storage means and displayed on the display means.
According to this configuration, since not only patient information but also work information is displayed on the corridor lamp, it is possible to secure a communication means for nurses who frequently visit and rarely stay at the nurse station. And since the display means of the corridor lamp can enlarge the screen compared with the portable terminal carried by the nurse, it is easy to read, the burden on the nurse can be reduced, and communication leakage can be prevented.

The invention according to claim 3 is the invention according to claim 1 or 2, wherein the corridor lamp is provided with a display confirmation means for a person who confirms the information displayed on the display means to perform a confirmation operation. If the display confirmation means is operated while displaying the patient information or the work information, the display information is not controlled thereafter.
According to this configuration, when the display is confirmed with a certain corridor lamp, the display is subsequently controlled so as not to include other corridor lamps, so that only the latest information can be displayed. Therefore, the same information is not displayed many times, and omission of confirmation can be prevented.

According to a fourth aspect of the present invention, in the invention according to the third aspect, the corridor lamp includes a communication control unit that transmits information such as date, time and place to the nurse call master or the nurse call server when the display confirmation means is operated The nurse call parent device or the nurse call server includes a confirmation information storage unit that stores information such as the received date and time and location.
According to this configuration, information such as the date and time confirmed by the corridor lamp is recorded as a history in the nurse call master or the nurse call server, so that the confirmation history can be managed without creating a separate confirmation history.

The invention according to claim 5 is the ID card according to any one of claims 1 to 4, wherein the ID information obtaining means is an RFID receiver constituting an RFID, and a nurse or a doctor sends an ID signal. And ID information is obtained by receiving an ID signal from the ID card on which the ID information obtaining means is tricked.
According to this configuration, it is possible to confirm patient information or work information that the user is in charge without separately inputting an ID number for ID authentication or pressing a hand against a predetermined place for fingerprint authentication or the like. Because it is possible, a new burden is not generated on nurses.

According to the present invention, in any corridor lamp, a nurse or the like that has approached by the input of an ID is determined, and updated information is displayed on the display means among patient information associated with the person. Therefore, nurses and the like can check the change information related to the patient in charge by looking at the corridor lamp, and can smoothly perform nursing work.
In addition to displaying patient information as well as business information on the corridor lamp, it is possible to secure a means of communication for nurses who frequently travel.

As shown in FIG. 3, a liquid crystal display (master LCD) 30 for displaying patient information and the like, an LCD controller 31 for controlling the display of the master LCD 30, a patient information storage unit 32, and a task for storing task information for nurses An information storage unit 33, a call unit 34 including a microphone and a speaker, a confirmation information storage unit 35 for storing operation information of the confirmation button 21, an ID / responsible patient storage unit 37 for storing nurse and doctor ID information, a keyboard, An operation unit 38 including a touch panel, a CPU (parent device CPU) 39 for controlling the nurse call parent device 3, and an interface (parent device IF) 40 for communicating with the controller 4 and the nurse call server 6 are provided.

  The patient information storage unit 32 of the nurse call parent device 3 stores patient information of all the patients corresponding to the connected nurse call child device 1, specifically, name, sex, age, relief category, infectious disease. Information, overnight stay / in-room / outing information, etc. are stored for each patient. And the patient information storage part 15 of the corridor lamp 2 stores the patient information of the patient in the hospital room. On the other hand, the same information is stored in the ID / responsible patient storage units 18 and 37 of the corridor lamp 2 and the nurse call master unit 3, and ID information such as nurses and doctors is stored.

  Further, the ID card 10 is a card incorporating an IC chip that transmits ID information, forms an RFID paired with the ID receiving unit 17 of the corridor lamp, and receives an inquiry signal transmitted by the ID receiving unit 17 The ID card 10 transmits an ID signal. However, the communication distance is set to about 30 cm here.

  The operation of the nurse call system configured as described above is as follows. However, since the basic operation operation in which the patient makes a nurse call with the nurse call slave unit 1 and responds to the call with the nurse call parent unit 3 or the portable terminal 7 is the same as the conventional operation, the description is omitted and the operation flow of FIG. Based on the display operation of the patient information and the like on the corridor lamp LCD 13 of the corridor lamp 2 will be mainly described.

  First, when the patient information is changed in the ordering system 5 (for example, the type of medicine administered, the precautions for nursing, etc. are changed or added), the ordering system 5 sends to the nurse call server 6 The changed patient information is transmitted together with information such as the patient ID. This data transmission is performed sequentially or periodically.

  The nurse call server 6 that has received the change data changes its own data and transmits change information to the nurse call parent device 3. In this way, the nurse call parent device 3 that has received the change information (S1) stores the patient information storage unit 32 with a header indicating the change information in the patient information storage unit 32 under the control of the parent device CPU 39. At the same time, change information is transmitted to each corridor lamp 2, 2,... And stored in the patient information storage unit 15 of the corridor lamp 2 (S2).

  Further, when a notification item occurs for a certain nurse, the operation unit 38 is operated by the nurse or the like in the nurse call parent device 3 (or the nurse call server 6) to create a business contact for communication, It is stored in the business information storage unit 33. Then, the base unit CPU 39 receives this save operation and transmits business contact information to each corridor lamp 2, 2,..., And is stored in the business information storage unit 16 of each corridor lamp 2 (S2). Needless to say, a nurse ID to be notified is assigned to the information related to the business communication.

  When the ID card 10 carried by the nurse or doctor in the state where the information is stored in this way is trapped by the ID receiving unit 17 of the corridor lamp 2, the nurse receiving the ID receiving unit 17 from the ID card 10 Alternatively, doctor ID information is read. In response to this ID information, the corridor lamp CPU 22 collates (S3) with the ID information stored in the ID / responsible patient storage unit 18, and if the information related to the ID information is stored by the collation, that is, has been changed. If there is information on the patient in charge, and in the case of a nurse, there is business information addressed to the patient stored in the business information storage unit 16 (S4), the information is taken out and displayed on the corridor lamp LCD 13 (S5). . If there is no stored information, information such as the name of a patient in a normal hospital room is displayed (S9).

  After that, when the nurse or doctor who confirms the content displayed on the corridor lamp LCD 13 performs a confirmation operation by pressing the confirmation button 21 (S6), the corridor lamp CPU 22 includes information such as the date and time of confirmation and the corridor lamp ID. The confirmation information is transmitted to the nurse call parent device 3 (S7) and stored as a confirmation history in the confirmation information storage unit 35 of the nurse call parent device 3 (S8). Thereafter, the display of the corridor lamp 2 is switched to the display of normal patient information (S9).

And when the confirmed information is the change information of patient information, the confirmed information is deleted from all the corridor lamps 2, 2,. In addition, the change information stored in the nurse call parent device 3 is stored in the patient information storage unit 32 together with other unchanged patient information after the header indicating that the change information is changed and the like. This is not the case if it is patient change information for multiple nurses).
On the other hand, when the confirmed information is business information, the business information confirmed by the control of the master CPU 39 is deleted from all the corridor lamps 2, 2,.

  Thus, even if a confirmed nurse or doctor performs ID authentication with another corridor lamp 2, it will not be displayed again on the corridor lamp LCD 13, and the same contents will not be displayed each time confirmation is made. However, the nurse call master unit 3 can continue to save without deleting the confirmation information, so that if the contents are forgotten, the nurse call master unit 3 can return to the nurse station and confirm it. It will not cause any trouble.

In this way, in any corridor lamp, a nurse or the like who has performed an ID input operation is determined, and updated information is displayed on the display means among the patient information associated with the person. Can check the change information about his / her patient by looking at the corridor lamp, and can smoothly carry out nursing work and medical examination without waste, and the doctor can confirm that the contents of the change have been transmitted. .
In addition, not only patient information but also work information for nurses is displayed on the corridor lights, so it is possible to secure a means of contact for nurses who frequently travel and do not stay at the nurse station. It is possible to prevent leakage of communication.
In addition, if the display is confirmed with a certain corridor light, it is controlled not to display other corridor lights after that, so only the latest information can be displayed, and the same information is not displayed many times. It is effective in preventing omission of confirmation, and information such as date and time confirmed by the corridor lamp is recorded as a history in the nurse call master unit, so that the confirmation history can be managed without creating a separate confirmation history.
In addition, by performing ID authentication using RFID, patient information or business information that the person is in charge of does not need to input an ID number for ID authentication or press a hand against a predetermined place for fingerprint authentication or the like. Can be confirmed, so no new burden is generated on nurses.

The display of patient information on the corridor lamp 2 disappears after a predetermined time and returns to standby, and the display is not continued. The confirmation button 21 may not be provided with a dedicated button. For example, the confirmation button 21 may be configured to transmit a confirmation signal by long-pressing a recovery button (not shown) provided conventionally.
In the above embodiment, various information is stored in the corridor lamp 2, but is stored only in the nurse call master unit 3 or the nurse call server 6, and patient information or the like when the nurse ID or doctor ID is collated. May be read from the nurse call parent device 3 or the nurse call server 6 and displayed on the corridor lamp 2. In this case, the information once confirmed by the corridor lamp 2 must be transmitted from the nurse call master unit 3 or the nurse call server 6 to the corridor lamp 2 for the operation of the nurse or doctor having the same ID. Good.
Further, although the confirmation information storage unit 35 is provided in the nurse call parent device and the confirmation history is recorded, the confirmation history storage unit 35 may be provided in the nurse call server 6.

It is a block diagram which shows an example of the nurse call system which concerns on this invention. It is a block diagram of the corridor lamp of FIG. FIG. 2 is a block diagram of the nurse call parent device of FIG. 1. It is a flowchart which shows the flow of display control of a corridor lamp.
