Description

  The present invention relates to a layout creation program, a layout creation device, a layout creation system, and a layout creation method.

  2. Description of the Related Art Electronic medical record systems that allow doctors and the like to easily refer to various information related to patients by registering patient medical information in a database and displaying them on a display device at the time of medical examination are widely used in medical practice. Here, patient medical information includes a wide variety of documents and images such as medical records of doctors, prescriptions for tests and treatments, results of tests, observation records of nurses and physical therapists, treatment plans, and implementation records. Yes.

  A technique is known in which when displaying medical information on a display device, an information display area of the display device is divided into a plurality of sub-screens (child viewers) and the medical information is displayed on the divided sub-screens. Since this technique displays different medical information on a plurality of sub-screens, it is advantageous in that a plurality of medical information can be referred to at a time. The layout positions of the child screens relative to the information display area of the display device, the types of medical information displayed on each child screen, and the like are registered as a layout. The layout is created in advance by a user or an administrator, for example. When the user activates the electronic medical record, a predetermined layout is called, and various medical information is displayed on the display device according to the layout. Regarding layout calling, a technique for calling a frequently used layout from a plurality of layouts registered in advance has been proposed (for example, Patent Document 1).

JP 2007-328678 A

  When the electronic medical record is activated, there may be a case where a layout suitable for a medical action or a user purpose performed by a user such as a doctor, a nurse, or a physical therapist may not be presented. In this case, the user takes time to obtain the necessary medical information, and there is a possibility that the efficiency of medical practice may be reduced. For example, if the layout is inappropriate, the user must first start an application that displays each piece of medical information. Furthermore, the user must reposition the child screen assigned to each application in a size and position that allows easy viewing. Therefore, it is desirable that the layout called when the electronic medical record is activated is a layout that suits each user's purpose and medical practice. For example, when a treatment plan is input with reference to examination results, observation records, etc., it is desirable that the sub-screen displaying each medical information is arranged in a state that is easy for the user to grasp.

  Here, if the user registers each user's own layout and calls the layout registered by each user when each user activates the electronic medical record, the above problem can be solved. However, it may be difficult for all users to create their own layouts. For example, some users feel burdened with the work of registering layouts. Therefore, it is conceivable to register in advance a standard layout according to the department to which each user belongs or the job type of each user, and to call a layout suitable for the user when the electronic medical record is activated.

  However, since the standard layout for each department or occupation is often studied and created by experts in each department and occupation, the limited user preference is strongly reflected. Therefore, the standard layout may not be a highly versatile layout. The technique described in Patent Literature 1 calls a frequently used layout from a plurality of layouts registered in advance, but the registered layout itself may not be appropriate for the user.

  Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

  First, with reference to FIG. 1, an electronic medical record system including the layout creating apparatus of the present case will be described. As shown in FIG. 1, the electronic medical record system 100 includes user terminals (layout creation apparatuses) 10 a and 10 b and a server 20. Hereinafter, a screen displayed by arranging a plurality of child screens (hereinafter referred to as child viewers) in the display area of the display device is referred to as a multi-screen. The layout is information including the number of the plurality of child viewers displayed on the multi-screen, the information on the positions where the plurality of child viewers are arranged, and the type of medical care information displayed on each child viewer. .

  The user terminals 10a and 10b are client terminals composed of personal computers, for example, and are connected to the server 20 via a network 30 such as a LAN. The user terminals 10a and 10b are installed in a treatment room for performing treatment such as surgery, an imaging room for performing X-ray imaging, an examination room for performing various examinations, an examination room for doctors, and the like. Doctors, nurses, and the like use the user terminals 10a and 10b to call the patient's electronic medical record information from the server 20, and input (create) and browse the electronic medical record. In the following description, a subject using an electronic medical record such as a doctor, a nurse, or a laboratory technician is referred to as a user. Moreover, since the configuration and operation of the user terminals 10a and 10b are the same, the user terminals 10a and 10b are collectively referred to as the user terminal 10.

  The server 20 is a server computer, for example, and centrally manages various types of information related to the electronic medical record. In response to a request from the user terminal 10, the server 20 transmits electronic medical record information and electronic medical record layout information to the user terminal 10. Also, input information for the electronic medical record transmitted from the user terminal 10 is received, and various information managed by the server 20 is updated.

  Next, the hardware configuration of the user terminal 10 will be described. FIG. 2 is a diagram illustrating an example of a hardware configuration of the user terminal 10.

  The user terminal 10 includes an input / output unit 101, a ROM (Read Only Memory) 102, a central processing unit (CPU) 103, and a RAM (Random Access Memory) 104.

  The input / output unit 101 transmits / receives data to / from the server 20. Further, the input / output unit 101 outputs the created standard layout (described later) to the display device 114 included in the user terminal 10. The ROM 102 stores a program for creating a standard layout (details will be described later) and the like. The CPU 103 reads and executes a program stored in the ROM 102. Further, the functions of the acquisition unit 111, the determination unit 112, and the creation unit 113 illustrated in FIG. 3 are executed by the calculation performed by the CPU 103 of the program stored in the ROM 102. The RAM 104 stores temporary data used when executing the program.

  Next, an example of functions provided in the user terminal 10 will be described. FIG. 3 is a functional block diagram illustrating an example of functions provided in the user terminal 10.

  The user terminal 10 includes an acquisition unit (accepting unit, acquisition unit) 111, a determination unit 112, and a creation unit 113.

  When the standard layout creation process is activated, the acquisition unit 111 accepts designation of attribute information to be created as a standard layout. For example, when the standard layout creation process is started by the user, the acquisition unit 111 receives the attribute information of the user who started the creation process as attribute information to be created as a standard layout. Specifically, the acquisition unit 111 acquires attribute information of the user who started the standard layout creation process. Here, the user attribute information is, for example, a medical department to which the user belongs or a job type of the user. The acquisition unit 111 acquires layout information including the received attribute information from the layout information database 201 provided in the server 20. For example, the acquisition unit 111 acquires layout information including “internal medicine” of the attribute information from the layout information database 201 when the user who started the standard layout creation process belongs to the internal medicine. The acquisition unit 111 outputs the acquired layout information to the determination unit 112. The acquisition unit 111 receives the designation of the attribute information of the user who is the creation target of the standard layout from the system administrator or the like instead of the attribute information of the user who started the standard layout creation process, and acquires the layout information. Also good.

  Here, the layout information stored in the layout information database 201 provided in the server 20 will be described. The layout information stores information related to the layout registered by each user and the layout created by the user changing the layout registered in advance. For example, the system builder creates a simple layout model, and the user terminal 10 of the present embodiment outputs a simple layout model in the initial operation of the system. On the other hand, the user performs an operation such as changing the arrangement of the child screen or changing the medical information displayed on the child screen so that the user can easily work. The user terminal 10 stores the layout being changed in the layout information database together with the user attributes. That is, in the present embodiment, for example, a simple layout model may be prepared and placed at the time of starting the system operation without creating a standard layout by an expert. In addition to the layout registered by a user who is good at layout creation, it is possible to collect a layout changed from a simple layout model to an easy-to-work layout. As described above, the user terminal 10 in the present embodiment can collect various layouts regardless of the user's technique for layout creation. And based on the layout collected in this way, the user terminal 10 in this embodiment can create a more versatile layout.

  FIG. 4 is a diagram illustrating an example of layout information stored in the layout information database 201.

  The layout information includes, for example, a layout header table shown in FIG. 4 (A) and a layout data table shown in FIG. 4 (B). The layout header table shown in FIG. 4A has items of “layout number”, “layout name”, “clinical department”, “patient ID”, and “user ID”. The “layout number” is a number for uniquely identifying a layout from a plurality of layouts. The “layout name” is for explaining the layout corresponding to the layout number. The “clinical department” stores the clinical department (user attribute information) to which the user who has registered the layout corresponding to the layout number belongs. “Patient ID” is an identifier for uniquely identifying a patient. The “patient ID” does not have to be entered. When a value is input in “Patient ID”, it means that the layout is a layout registered for the patient corresponding to “Patient ID”. “User ID” is an identifier for uniquely identifying a user who has registered a layout. Further, as described above, when the layout of the display screen of the user terminal 10 is acquired at a predetermined timing regardless of the layout registration operation, the ID of the operator of the user terminal 10 is stored as the user ID. The “user ID” may not have a value input. If no value is entered in “User ID”, this means that the layout does not depend on the user, that is, the standard layout of the department.

  The items of “clinical department”, “patient ID”, and “user ID” are also used when a layout is called. For example, when the user with the user ID “D1201” normally activates the electronic medical record, “D1201” is input in the item “User ID” in the table shown in FIG. The layout of the layout number “0003” for which no value is input is called. When the user with the user ID “D1201” activates the electronic medical record of the patient with the patient ID “A1234”, “A1234” is input in the item “patient ID” and the user ID “D1201”. The layout of the layout number “0001” for which “” is input is called. In addition, when a user who belongs to an orthopedic surgeon but does not register a user-specific layout activates an electronic medical record, no values are entered in the items “patient ID” and “user ID”. , A layout (orthopedic standard layout) of layout number “0005” in which “orthopedic” is entered in the item “clinical department” is called.

  The layout data table shown in FIG. 4B includes items “layout number” and “type”. The “layout number” is a number for uniquely identifying the layout, and a value stored in the “layout number” item of the layout header table in FIG. 4A is registered. “Type” distinguishes whether the data stored in the items after the type is related to the dividing line dividing the information display area of the display device 114 or the child viewer.

  In the layout data table, when “partition line” is input to the item “type”, the items after the type are “deployment number”, “direction of parting line”, as shown in the upper part of FIG. “Start point coordinate 1”, “End point coordinate”, and “Start point coordinate 2”. The “deployment number” is a number for uniquely identifying the dividing line registered in the “type”. “Direction of dividing line” represents whether the direction of the dividing line corresponding to the deployment number is horizontal or vertical. For example, in FIG. 4B, the dividing line with the layout number “0001” and the deployment number “1” has the “direction of dividing line” “vertical”. In this case, as shown in FIG. 5A, the dividing line with the deployment number “1” is a dividing line in the vertical direction (hereinafter referred to as a vertical dividing line). As shown in FIG. 5A, “starting point coordinate 1” and “starting point coordinate 2” have the origin (0, 0) at the lower left of the information display area of the display device 114, the vertical direction is the Y axis, and the horizontal direction is the horizontal direction. This is a coordinate representing the starting point of the dividing line when the X axis is used. In FIG. 5A, the maximum value of the X axis is 600, and the maximum value of the Y axis is 800. “Starting point coordinate 1” represents the coordinate value of the starting point on the X axis when “the direction of the dividing line” is “horizontal”, and the starting point coordinate on the Y axis when “the direction of the dividing line” is “vertical”. Represents a coordinate value. “Starting point coordinate 2” represents the coordinate value of the starting point on the Y axis when “the direction of the dividing line” is “horizontal”, and the starting point coordinate on the X axis when “the direction of the dividing line” is “vertical”. Represents a coordinate value. The “end point coordinate” is a coordinate that represents the end point of the dividing line. When “the direction of the dividing line” is “horizontal”, it represents the coordinate value of the end point on the X axis, and the “the direction of the dividing line” is “vertical”. Represents the coordinate value of the end point on the Y axis.

  The dividing line with the layout number “0001” and the deployment number “1” in FIG. 4B is a vertical dividing line, the start point coordinate is (300, 0), and the end point coordinate is (300, 800). . In addition, the dividing line with the layout number “0001” and the deployment number “2” is a horizontal dividing line (hereinafter referred to as a horizontal dividing line), the start point coordinates are (300, 400), and the end point coordinates are ( 600, 400). Accordingly, the arrangement of the dividing lines with the deployment numbers “1” and “2” of the layout number “0001” is as shown in FIG.

  In the layout data table, when “child viewer” is input in “type”, items after type are “frame number”, “viewer type”, “display condition” as shown in the lower part of FIG. And “search condition”. The “frame number” is a number for uniquely identifying a frame in which the child viewer is arranged (hereinafter referred to as a child viewer frame) created by the above-described dividing line. “Viewer type” represents the type of medical information displayed on the child viewer. “Display condition” represents a display format of medical information represented by “viewer type”. “Search condition” represents information to be displayed on a child viewer among information included in medical information represented by “viewer type”. For example, in FIG. 4B, in the layout number “0001”, the child viewer arranged in the child viewer frame with the frame number “1” displays the information of the progress note among the information included in the medical information “karte”. Display in HTML format.

  The deployment number of the dividing line and the frame number of the child viewer frame can be associated according to the rule shown in FIG. 6, for example. That is, when the vertical dividing lines are arranged, the frame numbers of the child viewer frames are numbered as frame number 1 and frame number 2 from the left as shown in FIG. In FIG. 6, the frame numbers of the child viewer frames are indicated by numbers in parentheses. When an existing layout is divided by a horizontal dividing line, a new frame number is assigned to the child viewer frame created below the horizontal dividing line. For example, in FIG. 6B, a new frame number 3 is assigned to the child viewer frame created below the horizontal dividing line with the deployment number 2. Further, when the existing layout is divided by the vertical dividing line, a new frame number is assigned to the child viewer frame created on the right side of the vertical dividing line. For example, in FIG. 6C, a new frame number 4 is assigned to the child viewer frame created on the right side of the vertical division line with the deployment number 3.

  According to the above-described rule for associating the division line deployment number with the child viewer frame frame number, the frame number of each child viewer frame in the layout with the layout number “0001” in FIG. 4 is as shown in FIG. . As shown in the lower part of FIG. 4B, each child viewer has a frame number to be arranged as data, so each child viewer is arranged in the child viewer frame according to the data in FIG. 4B. . As a result, the layout with the layout number “0001” is as shown in FIG.

  Returning to FIG. 3 again, the description will be continued. The determination unit 112 receives layout information from the acquisition unit 111. The determining unit 112 determines the number of child viewers arranged in the display area of the display device 114 and the type of medical information displayed on each child viewer from the received layout information. Details of processing for determining the number of child viewers and the type of medical information displayed on each child viewer will be described later. The determination unit 112 outputs the determined number of child viewers and the type of medical information to the creation unit 113.

  The creation unit 113 creates a standard layout for the attribute information based on the number of child viewers received from the determination unit 112 and the medical information. The creation unit 113 displays the created standard layout information on the display device 114 included in the user terminal 10. Thereby, the user can check the standard layout on the display device 114. When the user adopts a standard layout, for example, when the user presses a save button or the like on the electronic medical record screen, the creation unit 113 saves the created standard layout information in the layout information database 201 as a standard layout for attribute information. To do.

  Next, details of the standard layout creation process will be described. FIG. 7 is a flowchart illustrating an example of processing executed by the user terminal 10. In this embodiment, the attribute information is a medical department, and a standard layout for the medical department is created.

  The acquisition unit 111 acquires layout information associated with the designated clinical department from the layout information database 201 (step S11). Here, the designated medical department may be, for example, a medical department to which the user who started the standard layout creation process belongs, or a medical department designated by the system administrator as a target for creating the standard layout. May be. For example, when “internal medicine” is designated as the medical department, the acquiring unit 111 has a layout number (0001) in which “internal medicine” is set in the “medical department” item in the layout header table illustrated in FIG. , 0003, 0004). Then, the acquisition unit 111 acquires all the data corresponding to the acquired layout number from the layout data table of FIG. Hereinafter, the data acquired in step S11 is referred to as temporary data for layout creation.

  Next, the determination unit 112 calculates the average number of divisions of the acquired layout (step S12). Specifically, the determination unit 112 acquires the maximum value of the deployment number for each layout in the data acquired from the layout data table in which the “type” item is “partition line”. Next, the determination unit 112 divides the total number of maximum values for each layout by the number of layouts, and sets the result of division as the average number of layout divisions. For example, when the layout creation temporary data acquired in step S11 is FIG. 8, in the dividing line data shown in FIG. 8A, the maximum deployment number of layout number “0001” is 2, layout number “ The maximum value of the deployment number of “0003” is 3, and the maximum value of the deployment number of the layout number “0004” is 4. Therefore, the determination unit 112 sets a value “3” obtained by dividing the sum “9” of the maximum values of the deployment numbers by the number of layouts “3” as the average division number.

  Next, the determination unit 112 calculates the average number of placements and placement locations for each viewer type in the acquired temporary data for layout creation (step S13). Specifically, the determination unit 112 counts the number of arrangements for each medical information set in the “viewer type” item in the temporary data for layout creation illustrated in FIG. In FIG. 8B, the arrangement number for each viewer type is 3 in the chart, 5 in the image, 2 in the inspection result list, 2 in the order, and 1 in the report.

  The average of the arrangement locations of each viewer type can be obtained using the data of the dividing line shown in FIG. As described above, the division line deployment number and the child viewer frame number are associated according to the rules shown in FIG. Accordingly, when the lower left coordinate of the child viewer is the start point coordinate of the child viewer and the upper right coordinate is the end point coordinate of the child viewer, the determination unit 112 obtains the start point coordinate and the end point coordinate of each child viewer from the data of the dividing line. Can do. And the determination part 112 can obtain | require the average of an arrangement place by calculating | requiring the average coordinate of a starting point coordinate and an end point coordinate for every viewer classification, respectively.

  For example, in FIGS. 9A to 9C showing the layouts stored in the temporary layout creation data in FIG. 8, the start point coordinates in each layout of the viewer type “karte” are (0, 0), ( 300, 400) and (0, 0), the average start point coordinate is (100, 133). Since the end point coordinates are (300, 800), (600, 800), and (200, 400), respectively, the average end point coordinates are (366, 666). In the calculation of the average start point coordinate and the average end point coordinate, the decimal point is rounded down. However, the average start point coordinate and the average end point coordinate may be obtained in consideration of the decimal point. Moreover, you may round up after the decimal point or round off.

  Similarly, for other viewer types, the determination unit 112 determines average start point coordinates and average end point coordinates. Thereby, the total data for each viewer type shown in FIG. 9D is created. In FIG. 9D, the average start point coordinate 1 represents the coordinate value on the X axis of the start point, and the average start point coordinate 2 represents the coordinate value on the Y axis of the start point. The average end point coordinate 1 represents the coordinate value on the X axis of the end point, and the average end point coordinate 2 represents the coordinate value on the Y axis of the end point.

  Next, the creation unit 113 extracts only layout data having a dividing line equal to or greater than the average number of divisions as data for creating a standard layout (step S14). In the example of FIG. 8, since the average number of divisions is “3”, only the data of the layout numbers “0003” and “0004” becomes data for creating the standard layout.

  Next, the creation unit 113 counts the number of vertical division lines and horizontal division lines for each layout extracted in step S14, and calculates the total number of counts (step S15). In the example of FIG. 8, the number of vertical dividing lines of the layout number “0003” is 1, and the number of horizontal dividing lines is 2. Further, the number of vertical dividing lines of the layout number “0004” is 1, and the number of horizontal dividing lines is 3. Therefore, the sum of the numbers of vertical dividing lines and horizontal dividing lines is 2 and 5, respectively.

  The creation unit 113 extracts, from each layout, a dividing line having the smallest start point coordinate among the dividing lines having a large sum obtained in step S15 among the vertical dividing lines and the horizontal dividing lines (step S16). That is, when the dividing line having a large sum obtained in step S15 is a vertical dividing line, the vertical dividing line having the minimum X-axis coordinate value (that is, the start point coordinate 2) is extracted. When the dividing line having a large sum obtained in step S15 is a horizontal dividing line, a horizontal dividing line having the minimum Y-axis coordinate value (that is, start point coordinate 2) is extracted. In the example of FIG. 8, since the total sum of the horizontal dividing lines is large, the horizontal dividing line having the minimum start point coordinate from the layout numbers “0003” and “0004”, that is, the dividing line with the deployment number 3 in the layout number “0003”. In the layout number “0004”, the dividing line with the deployment number “4” is extracted.

  Next, the creation unit 113 obtains average coordinate values of the start point coordinates and end point coordinates of the dividing line extracted in step S16 (step S17). That is, the average values of the values input to the start point coordinates 1, end point coordinates, and start point coordinates 2 of each layout are obtained. The creation unit 113 stores the obtained average value data in the RAM 104 or the like as standard layout temporary data. In the example of FIG. 8, the average value of the start point coordinates 1 is 250, the average value of the end point coordinates is 600, the average value of the start point coordinates 2 is 350, and the standard layout temporary data is FIG. 10A.

  Next, the creation unit 113 deletes the dividing line data used in step S16 from the temporary data for layout creation (step S17). As a result, the temporary data for layout creation is as shown in FIG.

  Next, the creation unit 113 determines whether or not the dividing line has been processed by the average number of divisions calculated in step S12 (step S19). That is, the creation unit 113 determines whether or not the number of division lines stored in the standard layout temporary data is equal to the average number of divisions.

  When the dividing lines for the average number of divisions are not processed (step S19 / NO), that is, when the data number of the dividing lines stored in the standard layout temporary data is less than the average number of divisions, the creating unit 113 Returning to step S15, the processing is continued.

  The creation unit 113 adjusts the arrangement of the dividing lines when the dividing lines for the average number of divisions have been processed (step S19 / YES) (step S20). In the data of FIG. 8, the standard layout temporary data obtained as a result of repeating the processing of step S15 to step S19 is FIG. 10C, and the dividing line is displayed as information based on the data of FIG. The image arranged in the area is as shown in FIG.

  Details of the dividing line adjustment processing in step S20 will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG.

  The creation unit 113 acquires data of the dividing line to be adjusted from the standard layout temporary data (step S201). For example, the creating unit 113 can adjust the dividing line in the order in which the average start point coordinates and the average end point coordinates are obtained. That is, the creation unit 113 can adjust the dividing lines in the order of the dividing lines stored in the standard layout temporary data.

  Next, the creation unit 113 determines whether there is another dividing line closer to the starting end than the dividing line to be adjusted, or whether there is a dividing line (crossing line) that intersects the dividing line to be adjusted. (Step S202). If the dividing line to be adjusted is a horizontal dividing line, the dividing line that is closer to the starting edge than the dividing line to be adjusted is more than the value of the starting point coordinate 1 (the coordinate value on the X axis) of the dividing line to be adjusted. A vertical dividing line having a small value of the starting point coordinate 2 (coordinate value on the X axis). If the dividing line to be adjusted is a vertical dividing line, the value of the starting point coordinate 2 (the coordinate value on the Y axis) is smaller than the value of the starting point coordinate 1 (the coordinate value on the Y axis) of the dividing line to be adjusted. A horizontal dividing line.

  When the determination in step S202 is YES, the creation unit 113 executes a start point coordinate determination process (step S204). Here, an outline of the start point coordinate determination process will be described with reference to FIG. When there is another dividing line closer to the starting edge than the dividing line to be adjusted (FIG. 12A left), the creation unit 113 sets the value of the starting point coordinate 1 of the dividing line to be adjusted to Is rewritten to the value of the starting point coordinate 2 of the dividing line (right of FIG. 12A). If there is an intersection line, the distance (L ′) from the start end to the start point of the dividing line to be adjusted, the distance from the start end to the start point of the intersection line, or the distance from the end point of the intersection line to the end ( L). As a result, when the distance from the starting end to the starting point of the dividing line to be adjusted is longer (L <L ′), the value of the starting point coordinate 1 of the dividing line to be investigated is the value of the starting point coordinate 2 of the intersecting line. (FIG. 12B). On the other hand, when the distance from the starting end to the starting point of the dividing line to be adjusted is shorter (L> L ′), the value of the starting point coordinate 2 of the adjusting dividing line is set to the starting end coordinate value, that is, FIG. In the example of C), it is rewritten to 0.

  When the determination in step S202 is NO, the creation unit 113 sets the start point coordinates to the minimum value (step S203). Specifically, the starting point coordinate 1 of the dividing line to be adjusted is set to 0.

  Next, the creation unit 113 performs processing on the end point coordinates. The creation unit 113 determines whether there is another dividing line closer to the end of the dividing line to be adjusted, or whether there is a dividing line (crossing line) that intersects the dividing line to be adjusted (step). S205). If the dividing line to be adjusted is a horizontal dividing line, the other dividing line existing closer to the end than the dividing line to be adjusted is more than the end point coordinate value (the coordinate value on the X axis) of the dividing line to be adjusted A vertical dividing line having a large value of the starting point coordinate 2 (coordinate value on the X axis). If the dividing line to be adjusted is a vertical dividing line, the horizontal dividing in which the value of the start point coordinate 2 (the coordinate value in the Y axis) is larger than the end point coordinate value (the coordinate value in the Y axis) of the dividing line to be adjusted. It means a line.

  When the determination in step S205 is YES, the creation unit 113 executes end point coordinate determination processing (step S207). Here, an outline of the end point coordinate determination process will be described with reference to FIG. When there is another parting line closer to the end than the parting line to be adjusted, the creation unit 113 sets the end point coordinate value of the parting line to be adjusted to the value of the start point coordinate 2 of the other parting line near the end. Rewriting is performed (FIG. 13A). If there is an intersection line, the distance (L ′) from the end point to the end point of the dividing line to be adjusted, the distance from the start point to the start point of the intersection line, or the distance from the end point of the intersection line to the end point ( L). As a result, when the distance from the end point to the end point of the dividing line to be adjusted is longer (L <L ′), the end point coordinate value of the dividing line to be investigated is rewritten to the value of the starting point coordinate 2 of the intersection line. (FIG. 13B). On the other hand, when the distance from the end point to the end of the adjustment target dividing line is shorter (L> L ′), the end point coordinate value of the adjustment target dividing line is set to the end value, that is, as shown in FIG. In the example, it is rewritten to 600.

  When the determination in step S205 is NO, the creation unit 113 sets the end point coordinate of the dividing line to be adjusted to the maximum value, that is, the end coordinate value (step S206). Specifically, when the dividing line to be adjusted is a horizontal dividing line, the end point coordinate value is set to the maximum value on the X axis, and when the dividing line is a vertical dividing line, the end point coordinate value is set to the maximum value on the Y axis. To do.

  Next, the creating unit 113 determines whether or not an unadjusted dividing line exists in the standard layout temporary data (step S208). If the determination in step S208 is yes, the creation unit 113 repeats the processing from step S201. If the determination in step S208 is no, the creation unit 113 ends the process in FIG. 11 and proceeds to step S21.

  Next, the creation unit 113 arranges the child viewers on the layout determined by the process of step S20 (step S21). In the present embodiment, the creation unit 113 determines the child viewer frame in which the child viewers are arranged in the order of the viewer types having the largest number of arrangements. For example, in FIG. 9D, the viewer type with the largest number of arrangements is “image”. Therefore, the creation unit 113 first arranges the child viewers of the viewer type “image” at the positions of the start point coordinates (200, 100) and the end point coordinates (525, 500), as shown in FIG. Next, the creation unit 113 calculates an area where the child viewer of the arranged “image” overlaps each viewer frame. The creation unit 113 arranges the child viewer in the child viewer frame having the largest area overlapping with the arranged child viewer. In FIG. 14A, the child viewer of “Image” has the largest area overlapping with the child viewer frame of frame number 4 and is therefore arranged in the viewer frame of frame number 4.

  Next, in FIG. 9D, since the number of arrangements of the viewer type “karte” is large, the creation unit 113 arranges the chart child viewers according to the data of FIG. 9D (FIG. 14B). . The child viewer frame having the largest area overlapping the viewer type “karte” is the child viewer frame of frame number 3. Accordingly, as shown in FIG. 14B, the child viewer of “karte” is arranged in the child viewer frame of frame number 3.

  In FIG. 9D, the number of viewer types “inspection result list” and “order” is “2”, which is the same number. When the arrangement number is the same, the priority order of the viewer type is determined for each department, and the viewer type with the higher priority order can be arranged first. Alternatively, the viewer type stored at the top of the aggregated data shown in FIG. 9D may be arranged first. In the present embodiment, the description will be given on the assumption that the “inspection result list” has a higher priority than the “order”. As shown in FIG. 14C, the child viewer frame having the largest area overlapping with the child viewer of the “inspection result list” is the child viewer frame of the frame number 2, so that the viewer frame of the frame number 2 has “ A child viewer of “inspection result list” is arranged. When there are a plurality of child viewer frames having the same area overlapping with the child viewer, the child viewer may be arranged in the child viewer frame having the smaller frame number. If a child viewer has already been placed in the child viewer frame that has the largest area overlapping with the child viewer, the child viewer may be placed in the child viewer frame that has the second largest area overlapping with the child viewer. Good.

  When the child viewers are arranged in all the child viewer frames, the creating unit 113 creates layout information representing the layout shown on the right side of FIG. 14C (step S22), and ends the process. For example, the layout information of FIG. 14C created by the process of step S22 is as shown in FIG.

  As is clear from the above description, according to this embodiment, the acquisition unit 111 is a creation target of a multi-screen standard layout in which a plurality of child viewers that display medical information are displayed in the display area of the display device 114. Receives user attribute information and includes attribute information designated as a standard layout creation target from the layout information database 201 that associates the attribute information of the user who created the multi-screen with the layout of the multi-screen created by the user. Get all layout information. Then, the determination unit 112 determines the number of child viewers arranged in the standard layout and the type of medical information (viewer type) displayed on the child viewer based on the layout information acquired by the acquisition unit 111. The creation unit 113 creates a standard layout for attribute information based on the number of child viewers determined by the determination unit 112 and the type of medical information. This makes it possible to create a highly versatile layout that is not influenced by the limited user preference. In addition, by automatically calculating the standard layout for each attribute information (each medical department), the work load for constructing the standard layout is reduced.

  In the above-described embodiment, the acquisition unit 111 acquires all layout information registered by the user having the specified attribute information. However, when acquiring layout information, the acquisition unit 111 refers to the date when the layout was last used, and for a layout that has not been used for a long time (for example, more than one year), the standard layout is used. It may not be acquired as original data for creation. Accordingly, since a standard layout can be created based on frequently used layout data, the possibility of creating a more versatile layout is increased. In this case, an item for managing the date when the layout was last used is added to the layout header table.

  In the above-described embodiment, the layout information includes the number of child viewers arranged in the information display area of the display device 114 and the type of medical information displayed on the child viewer. A value obtained by averaging the number of child viewers defined by each layout acquired by 111 is determined as the number of child viewers of the standard layout, and the medical information displayed in the standard layout is determined based on the number of arrangements for each type of medical information. The type is determined. By setting the number of child viewers of the standard layout to the average value of the number of child viewers of each layout, it is possible to average the preference of the user who created each layout. Also, by displaying the medical information on the child viewer of the standard layout in descending order of the number of arrangements in each layout, the medical information frequently used in the designated medical department can be displayed on the child viewer. As a result, a more versatile layout can be created.

  Further, in the above-described embodiment, the process for creating the standard layout of the medical department has been described. However, the layout information includes the item of “job type” representing the job type of the user, thereby creating a standard layout for each “job type”. You can also. This makes it possible to create a standard layout for various attribute information of the user as well as the department.

  In the above-described embodiment, the server 20 includes the layout information database 201. However, the user terminal 10 may include the layout information database.

  The effect similar to the above-mentioned Example can be acquired also by implement | achieving the function which the above-mentioned user terminal 10 has with the server 20. FIG. FIG. 16 is an example of a functional block diagram of the server 20 that executes the layout creation process.

  In FIG. 16, the server 20 includes an acquisition unit 211, a determination unit 212, and a creation unit 213 in addition to the layout information database 201.

  The acquisition unit 211 acquires layout information registered by a user having specified attribute information from the layout information database 201 in response to the activation of the standard layout creation process from the user terminal 10. The acquisition unit 211 outputs the acquired layout information to the determination unit 212.

  Since the function provided in the determination unit 212 is the same as the function provided in the determination unit 112, description thereof is omitted.

  The creation unit 213 transmits the created standard layout to the user terminal 10. The user terminal 10 displays the received standard layout on the display device 114. When the user confirms the standard layout on the display device 114 and the user adopts the standard layout, the creation unit 213 stores the created standard layout in the layout information database 201.

  Note that the server 20 may include a display device, and the creation unit 213 may display the created display layout on the display device provided in the server 20.

It can be changed.

  For example, in the above-described embodiment, the user starts the standard layout creation process. However, the standard layout creation process may be started periodically (for example, once a month). When the standard layout creation process is periodically started, the acquisition unit 111 can be specified by specifying in advance attribute information (clinical department, occupation, etc.) for which a standard layout is to be created by a system administrator or the like. Can acquire layout information registered by a user having designated attribute information.

  In the above-described embodiment, the child viewer frame in which the child viewer is arranged is determined based on the area where the child viewer frame and the child viewer overlap. However, the method for determining the child viewer frame in which the child viewer is arranged is not limited to the above-described embodiment. For example, the child viewer may be arranged in order from the child viewer frame having a large display area. Or you may make it arrange | position a child viewer in order of the number of a child viewer frame.

  In the above-described embodiment, the electronic medical record system in one hospital has been described as an example. However, as shown in FIG. 17, a plurality of hospitals and the server 20 are connected by a network 300 such as the Internet or a WAN (Wide Area Network). It can also be applied to a wide-area medical network. In this case, a standard layout can be created by a user terminal installed in each hospital, or the server 20 can create a standard layout in response to a request from a user terminal installed in each hospital. According to the configuration shown in FIG. 17, since the layout information registered by each hospital is stored in the server 20, even in a hospital that has just introduced an electronic medical record system and does not store layout information in its own hospital, A standard layout can be easily created using layout information at other hospitals.

  Note that the functions of the layout creation device (the user terminal 10 and the server 20) can be realized by a computer including a CPU, a ROM, a RAM, and the like. In that case, a program describing the processing contents of the functions that the layout creating apparatus should have is provided.
