JP-A-2002-132925

  In order to display the inspection completed by inspecting the medical device, it is necessary to confirm that a predetermined inspection has been performed and the medical device operates normally.

  Whether or not the medical device has been inspected can only be identified by a label attached to the medical device or the like. However, since many medical devices of the same type are rented to the ward, if the label is peeled off after being brought into the ward, the infusion device and the like may be mixed with used medical devices.

  On the other hand, the label needs to be peeled off and discarded after the start of use, but if the label is forgotten to be peeled off, the label remains attached during and after use. In such a case, similarly to the above, there is a possibility that the unused medical device and the used medical device are confused.

  In addition, when stored for a long time after the inspection, the performance at the time of the inspection may not be able to be secured. It is conceivable that the date and time of inspection is described on the label and that after a predetermined period of time is managed so as to be re-inspected. is there. In addition, there is a possibility that a person who has lapsed the above period may be lent out by mistake.

  In addition, when medical devices are checked intensively, problems that occur after lending cannot often be dealt with. In particular, if an impact is applied after lending, the possibility of failure increases. In addition, it is difficult to determine whether or not a shock that causes a problem has acted.

  Furthermore, a person who inspects a medical device (hereinafter referred to as an inspector) is required to perform an inspection based on contents specified by a manufacturer or the like and contents determined by a medical institution, and to record the contents in a record. Although the above-mentioned inspector information and inspection items can be described on the above-mentioned label or inspection record document, the inspection work becomes very troublesome. Further, if the label is discarded after the start of use, it becomes unknown who inspected the label, and it may be difficult to deal with a case where a problem occurs.

  The present invention solves the above-mentioned conventional problems, and can reliably identify medical devices that have been inspected, improve the reliability of inspection work, and furthermore, display inspected medical devices that can respond to inconvenience that has occurred after inspection. It is an object to provide a system.

The present invention is a medical device inspected display system, wherein a display means for performing an inspected display and an inspection record based on inspection information based on a predetermined inspection operation and / or inspection information based on a predetermined inspection operation are stored. Inspection record generation means for generating, storage means for holding the inspection information and the inspection record, inspection record cancellation means for canceling the inspection record according to predetermined conditions after the generation of the inspection record, Display control means for operating the display means on the basis of the inspected record to perform an inspected display , wherein the inspected record canceling means uses the medical device or the time elapsed after generation of the inspected record. It is configured to cancel the above-mentioned inspected record based on the information.

  The type of the medical device is not particularly limited. It can be operated by electric power, centrally managed in a central material room, etc., and applied to medical equipment and the like lent to hospital wards, operating rooms, and the like. For example, it can be applied to an infusion pump device such as a syringe pump. Also, the type of power supply is not particularly limited, and the present invention can be applied to a battery-powered or commercial power-driven one.

  The display means is configured so that the user can at least identify that the inspection has been completed. The display method is not particularly limited. Inspection can be configured to be displayed only in color. For example, if the blue lamp is lit, the inspection has been completed, and if the red lamp is lit, it can be determined that the lamp has been used. In addition, it is also possible to configure so that the character "checked" is displayed on a liquid crystal screen or the like.

  Furthermore, if necessary, it can be configured to display that an inspection has been performed on an essential inspection item in each medical device. Further, numerical data and the like on the performance of the medical device can be displayed.

  As the display means, a dedicated display means for performing an inspection completed display can be employed, or an operation screen of each device can be used as the display means.

  The inspection record generation means generates an inspection record based on inspection information based on predetermined inspection work and / or inspection information based on predetermined inspection operation. In the above-mentioned inspection work, an inspector mainly inspects inspection items visually and manually. On the other hand, the inspection operation is to perform an inspection by causing the medical device to perform a predetermined operation, and the inspection process may be automatically performed, and the inspection information may be automatically generated. .

  The inspected record generating means can generate the inspected record based on information input from a manual input means manually input by an inspector, and is activated by performing a predetermined inspection operation on a medical device. The inspection completed record can be generated by information input from the automatic input means.

Further, the inspection completed record can be generated based on inspection information input from both the manual input means and the automatic input means. The inspection completed record is generated when there is no abnormality in a predetermined inspection item. In addition, it is desirable that the inspection information on each inspected item is stored in the storage means together with the inspection completed record.

  Various devices capable of storing electronic data can be employed as the storage means. For example, a memory or a hard disk provided in a medical device can be adopted. The format of the checked record is not particularly limited as long as it is electronic data that can be stored in the storage means. In addition, when there is no abnormality in a predetermined inspection item, information indicating only that the inspection has been completed can be used as the inspection completed record, or an inspection completed record including the contents of the inspection item can be generated and stored. it can. In addition, an inspection completed record including the inspection date and time can be generated.

  The display control means performs an inspection completion display on the display means based on the inspection completion record. If no checked record exists, no checked indication is displayed. Further, the checked record is canceled under a predetermined condition even after the checked record is generated.

That is, the configuration may be such that the checked record is canceled when the medical device is used and based on the time lapse information after the checked record is generated. The inspection already recorded cancellation is done by checking already recorded cancel means. Since the inspected record is canceled, the inspected display is not performed. As a result, there is no possibility that a used medical device is mistaken for a checked and unused medical device. Further, the medical device which has not been used for a long time after being inspected is not displayed as the inspected status. Therefore, the performance and safety of the medical device after inspection can be ensured.

  The method of canceling the above-mentioned checked record is not particularly limited. The inspected record itself can be erased from a memory or the like, or can be brought into a canceled state by adding cancellation information to the inspected record. The display control means performs an inspection completion display or the like based on the inspection record which has not been canceled by the inspection record canceling means.

  As the usage information, for example, it is possible to configure such that the power is turned on after the inspection record is generated, and the inspection record is canceled when a predetermined time elapses after the power is turned on. The elapsed time information is obtained by measuring the elapsed time (period) after the generation of the above-mentioned checked record by using a timer function in the microcomputer constituting the present system. It can be configured to output an instruction for canceling the inspected record to the canceling means. Further, it is also possible to use a microcomputer constituting a control device for controlling the medical device main body to measure the time from the generation of the checked record. It is desirable that the time lapse information be configured so as to be set according to the inspection system of the medical institution, the type of medical equipment, the inspection items, and the like.

  It is desirable to include the inspector information in the inspection information. This enhances the attention of the inspector and clarifies the responsibility for the inspection work. As a result, it is possible to cause the inspector to perform an inspection operation with high accuracy.

  It is desirable to provide an impact detecting means for detecting an impact acting on the medical device, and to cancel the inspection completed record when an impact of a predetermined magnitude or more acts on the medical device. Various impact sensors (acceleration sensors) and the like can be used as the impact detection means.

  By providing the impact detection means, if a large force acts on a ward or the like after the inspection completed record is generated, the inspection completed display is not displayed, and safety can be improved. It is preferable that a warning display for warning that a large impact force has been applied is displayed on the display means.

  The display control means controls the display of the checked display at least at the start of use of the medical device, and displays predetermined warning information on the display means when the checked display is not performed. It is desirable to do.

  Although the checked display may be always displayed after the completion of the check, it is desirable that the checked display is displayed when the power is turned on as the start of use of the medical device. As a result, in the battery-powered medical device, it is possible to prevent power from being consumed for the above-mentioned checked display.

The storage means may be configured to store a history of the inspection information relating to the inspection work and / or the inspection operation within at least a predetermined period, separately from the inspection completed record. This makes it possible to monitor the inspection information of the medical device for a long period of time. In addition, it is desirable that the above-mentioned inspection record be output to an external computer or the like.

  It is desirable that the display control means be configured to output warning information and display the warning information on the display means when predetermined inspection information is not input. The warning information is not particularly limited. For example, a warning that a used medical device has not been checked, a warning that indicates that the above-described impact has been applied, information that a predetermined time has elapsed since the generation of the checked record, and the like are displayed. Can be.

  The inspection information is information on inspection items required according to the type of medical device and the like, and can include various types of information. For example, when no abnormality is visually observed, the information is only information on the presence or absence of the abnormality. On the other hand, for information including numerical values such as pressure, temperature, current, and voltage, the numerical values themselves can be input as inspection information. Then, the inspection completed record generating means may be configured to generate an inspection completed record when there is no abnormality. For example, in the case of an infusion pump, in addition to the inspection information visually inspected by the inspector, the infusion pressure is included in the inspection item, and the infusion pressure is manually or automatically checked, and if there is no abnormality, the checked information is generated. Can be configured. Further, the numerical value of the infusion pressure is manually or automatically input to the checked record generation means as inspection information, and the checked record generation means determines whether there is an abnormality and generates the checked record. Can also be configured.

  In the system of the present application, the checked record generating means, the storage means, the checked record canceling means, and the display control means according to the present invention can be configured by utilizing the functions of a microcomputer. The microcomputer described above can be provided exclusively for the system of the present invention, or the system of the present invention can be configured using the function of the microcomputer for controlling each medical device.

FIG. 4 is a schematic block diagram of a checked display system applied to the infusion device shown in FIG. 3. 5 is a flowchart showing steps performed in the system shown in FIG.

  Hereinafter, embodiments according to the present invention will be specifically described with reference to the drawings. In the present embodiment, the checked display system according to the present invention is applied to a syringe pump (infusion device).

  As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the syringe pump 1 is configured to hold the syringe 2 in a detachable manner. The syringe 2 includes an outer cylinder 3 for accommodating a drug solution, an oval-shaped flange portion 5 formed to extend radially outward at a base end of the outer cylinder 3, and an inside of the outer cylinder from the base end. And a pusher 4 inserted into the housing. The whole syringe 2 is formed by resin molding. A discharge port 3 a to which an infusion tube 40 is connected is formed at the tip of the outer cylinder 3.

  The syringe pump 1 holds and pushes the syringe outer cylinder holding means 6, 9, 12 for holding the outer cylinder 3 of the syringe 2 and the flange 13 provided at the base end of the pusher 4. And a pushing means 10 for discharging the chemical solution in the outer cylinder 3.

  As shown in FIG. 3, the pushing means 10 is provided with a slider 16 configured to be movable in the axial direction by rotating a driving screw 14 by a motor 15 via a reduction gear 17. ing. The slider 16 holds the flange portion 13 of the pusher 4 and pushes the same in the axial direction to discharge the chemical contained in the syringe outer cylinder 3 from the discharge port 3a. The motor 15 is driven by electric power from a power supply 21.

  As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the checked display system 50 of the syringe pump 1 includes a display means 25 for performing a checked display, and a check control means for controlling the display means 25 to display a checked display and a warning. The inspection control means 22 includes a manual input means 24 for inputting inspection information, and an automatic input means 23 for inputting inspection information by performing a predetermined operation on the syringe pump. Each of the units is driven by electric power from the power supply 21 similarly to the motor 15.

  As shown in FIG. 4, the inspection control means 22 includes a display control means 43 for driving the display means 25 and an inspection completion record based on the inspection information input from the manual input means 24 and the automatic input means 23. And a storage means 42 for storing the checked record.

  As shown in FIGS. 2 to 4, in the present embodiment, a display lamp 31 and a liquid crystal display screen 32 are employed as the display means 25. The display lamp 31 is set to emit blue light as the checked display, and to emit red light when the checked display is not displayed.

  Further, in the present embodiment, the shock sensor 26 that generates shock information and outputs it to the inspected record canceling means 44 when an impact force equal to or more than a predetermined value is applied to the syringe pump 1 is provided.

  The inspector visually inspects a predetermined item and, if there is no abnormality, inputs inspection information from the manual input unit 24 to the inspected record generation unit 41. The manual input means 24 is not particularly limited. For example, a button switch or the like for inputting a check signal for a predetermined inspection item displayed on the liquid crystal screen or the like can be employed. Further, a film switch or the like for setting the infusion device may be used as the manual input means, and the inspection information may be manually input by setting the inspection mode. Also, a configuration may be adopted in which a numerical value is input as inspection information.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 3, the syringe pump 1 is provided with a discharge pressure detecting means 27 for checking whether or not a predetermined discharge pressure can be secured in the syringe 2. The discharge pressure of the syringe pump 1 is an essential performance for ensuring the performance of the syringe pump. The means for detecting the discharge pressure is not particularly limited. For example, when the discharge pressure is measured manually, the tube 40 connected to the discharge port 3a of the syringe 2 is connected to the discharge pressure measuring device 27a shown in FIG. If there is no abnormality in the measured value, inspection information indicating that there is no abnormality in the discharge pressure can be input to the manual input means 24. Alternatively, it is also possible to provide a discharge pressure measuring device 27b that measures distortion generated when the slider 16 presses the pusher 4 of the syringe 2 with a strain gauge provided on the slider 16 and indirectly measures the discharge pressure. An output such as a voltage output by the discharge pressure measuring device 27b is input to the automatic input means 23, and when the output voltage is within a predetermined range, an inspection record is automatically generated. Can also. Although two types of discharge pressure measuring devices 27a and 27b are provided in FIG. 3, actually, it is sufficient to provide only one of the discharge pressure measuring devices. In addition, the above-described inspection information is configured to be stored in the storage unit 42 even when the inspection completed record is not generated, and can be output to another computer to record the inspection history of the syringe pump. It is configured as follows.

  When the inspected record is generated, the inspected record is held in the storage unit 42 as being in the inspected state, and as described later, after the inspected record is generated, the inspection is performed according to predetermined conditions. The completed record is cancelled. The method of canceling the checked record is not particularly limited. However, the checked record can be deleted from the memory of the storage unit 42 or by adding a cancel record. The cancellation record is stored as a history in the storage unit together with the checked record, while the checked indication is configured to be performed when there is no cancellation record.

  The steps in the inspection completed display system 50 having the above configuration will be described based on a flowchart shown in FIG.

  To the manual input means 24 and / or the automatic input means 23, inspection information manually input from an inspector or inspection information automatically output by performing a predetermined operation of the syringe pump 1 is input (S101). The manual input means 24 and the automatic input means 23 determine whether or not the scoring information is appropriate (S102). If the information is appropriate, the inspected record generation means 41 generates an inspected record (S104). The checked record generation means 41 also determines whether or not check information of all predetermined items has been input, and generates the checked record. The generated dotted line record is stored in the storage unit 42 (S105). On the other hand, when incorrect inspection information, for example, abnormal operation information or the like is input, or when inspection information on all inspection items is not input (NO in S102), a warning output is issued from the display control means 43. Then, a warning display is displayed on the display means 25 (S103). As a result, the inspector inputs the inspection information again or requests that the syringe pump 1 be repaired because there is an abnormality.

  If the inspection information is appropriate, the inspection operation is completed by the above process.

  After lending the syringe pump to a ward or the like and turning on the power (S106), the steps described below are performed.

  When the power is turned on, the elapsed time from the date and time when the checked display is generated is read from the storage unit 42 and the timer 46 (S107), and if a predetermined period has elapsed (YES in S107). Then, a warning output indicating that a considerable period has elapsed since the inspection was performed is displayed on the display means 25 (S108). In addition, when the above-mentioned considerable period has elapsed, the inspected record stored in the storage means is deleted (S113). That is, the inspection completion display is not performed.

  If the predetermined period has not elapsed (NO in S107), it is next determined whether or not an impact force has been applied after the inspection completed record has been generated (S109). If an impact force equal to or greater than the predetermined value is applied (YES in S109), a warning is displayed on the display means 25 (S110), and a request for another check is made. Even when the above-mentioned predetermined impact force is applied, the inspected record stored in the storage means 42 is deleted as in the case where the predetermined period has elapsed (S113). That is, the inspection completion display is not performed.

  If no impact force has been applied (NO in S109), an inspection completed display is displayed on the display means 25 (S111). Accordingly, the syringe pump is properly inspected, and it is determined that the possibility of failure due to an impact is low, and the syringe pump 1 is used (S112).

  After a predetermined time has passed since the power was turned on and the use was started, the inspected record is deleted (S113). Thus, it is possible to easily identify the used device until the inspection completed record is generated again. Then, after use, it is returned to the management department. Thereafter, the inspection work is performed again, the checked information is input for the next use, and the information is stored in a predetermined place in a state where the checked display is performed.

  The warning displays S103, S108, and S110 control the lamp 31 to be lit red and display the cause of the warning on the liquid crystal display screen 32. Note that the warning display is not limited to the above embodiment, and various display forms can be adopted. Further, the display can be performed only on the lamp 31 or only on the liquid crystal display.

  Similarly to the warning display, the checked display S111 is set so that the lamp 31 is illuminated in blue and a display indicating that the inspection has been completed is performed on the liquid crystal screen. The above-mentioned checked display can be displayed only on the lamp 31 or only on the liquid crystal display.

  By employing the above-mentioned checked display system 50, there is no possibility of confusing a syringe pump that has been checked with a syringe pump that has not been checked.

  In addition, no warning is displayed on the syringe pump for which an abnormality has been detected in the inspection, and a warning is displayed. Therefore, the medical device can be replaced before being used, and the safety of the medical device is significantly improved.

  Further, since a warning display can be performed by detecting an impact applied during storage or use, safety in the case where medical devices are centrally managed and lent to each department can be ensured.

  Further, since the inspector information is retained, not only the accuracy of the inspection work can be improved, but also the responsibility of the inspection work can be clarified.

  The scope of the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments and examples. The present invention can be applied to various medical devices other than the syringe pump described in the embodiment. Further, the check items described in the embodiment are not limited, and various check items can be set according to the type of the medical device.

  An inspected medical device can be reliably identified, the reliability of the inspection operation can be improved, and a medical device inspected display system can be provided that can cope with inconvenience that occurs after the inspection.
