Description

本発明は、PTP包装体構造に関する。
The present invention relates to a PTP package structure.

現在、医療現場において多くのPTP錠剤が患者に処方及び提供されている。しかし、医師が処方及び提供した薬を患者が医師の指示通りに服用したか、否か、は患者に確認することで行われている。 Currently, many PTP tablets are prescribed and provided to patients in the medical field. However, it is done by confirming with the patient whether or not the patient has taken the medicine prescribed and provided by the doctor as instructed by the doctor.

しかしながら、患者が薬の服用を忘れていたり、服用していないにも関わらず服用していると報告する場合もある。このような場合に、医師は処方した薬が適切でなかったと判断して新たな薬を処方することが考えられる。このような事態は患者の病気治療に悪影響を与える可能性があるとともに医療費の高騰を招く怖れがある。 However, patients may report that they have forgotten to take the drug or are taking it even though they have not. In such a case, the doctor may determine that the prescribed drug is not appropriate and prescribe a new drug. Such a situation may adversely affect the treatment of the patient's illness and may lead to soaring medical costs.

前記事情に鑑み、従来、RFIDとRFIDタグから情報を読み取るリーダライタとを備えた薬剤管理システムが提案されている。該薬剤管理システムにおいて、RFIDタグは、格子状に配置された複数のセルを有する薬剤用パッケージに実装されていた。各セルは、破断可能壁およびこの破断可能壁に設けられた切断可能導線によって密閉されている。RFIDタグは、切断可能導線の断線を検知してセルに穴か開いたことを検知し、このことから各セルに入っている薬がどのくらい使用されたかを監視していた。このように薬剤管理システムにおいては、RFIDが監視して得た監視情報をリーダライタで読み取り、薬の服用管理することが提案されている(特許文献1)。 In view of the above circumstances, conventionally, a drug management system including an RFID and a reader / writer that reads information from an RFID tag has been proposed. In the drug management system, the RFID tag was mounted on a drug package having a plurality of cells arranged in a grid pattern. Each cell is sealed by a breakable wall and a cuttable lead provided on the breakable wall. The RFID tag detected the disconnection of the cuttable wire and detected that a hole was made in the cell, and from this, it was monitoring how much the medicine contained in each cell was used. As described above, in the drug management system, it has been proposed to read the monitoring information obtained by monitoring the RFID with a reader / writer and manage the administration of the drug (Patent Document 1).

前記提案では、セルの数に応じて切断可能導線が多くなり、この配線の数の増加に伴って切断可能導線の幅を細くする必要があるため、RFIDタグとの接続部分に応力が加わると切断可能導線が断線しやすくなり、この結果、薬の服用数を検知するときの信頼性が低くなるという課題に鑑み、第1の切断可能導線と第2の切断可能導線のいずれか1つの結線が切断されるごとにサブキャリアの周波数を変化させる薬剤包装材が提案されている(特許文献2)。 In the above proposal, the number of cuttable conductors increases according to the number of cells, and the width of the cuttable conductors needs to be narrowed as the number of wirings increases. Therefore, when stress is applied to the connection portion with the RFID tag. In view of the problem that the cuttable conductor is easily broken, and as a result, the reliability when detecting the number of medicines taken is lowered, the connection of either one of the first cuttable conductor and the second cutable conductor is made. A drug packaging material that changes the frequency of a subcarrier each time it is cut has been proposed (Patent Document 2).

特表2005-539300号公報Special Table 2005-539300 特開2010-75227号公報Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 2010-75227

前記従来の薬剤管理システムおよび薬剤包装材は、いずれも薬の取出し(服用)時に切断可能導線が切断され、該切断可能導線の切断を検知して薬の取出し(服用)を確認する構成である。すなわち、前記切断可能導線に常に電流を供給して、断線に伴う供給電流の遮断を検知して薬の取出し(服用)の情報を得るものである。したがって、電流の供給管理に十分に留意する必要があった。 Both the conventional drug management system and the drug packaging material have a configuration in which the cuttable lead wire is cut at the time of taking out (taking) the drug, and the cutting of the cuttable lead wire is detected to confirm the taking out (taking) of the drug. .. That is, a current is constantly supplied to the cuttable conductor, and the interruption of the supply current due to the disconnection is detected to obtain information on taking out (taking) the drug. Therefore, it was necessary to pay sufficient attention to the current supply control.

本発明は前述のような従来の問題点を解消するものであり、常に電流を供給する必要がなく、薬の取出し(服用)時に自動的に電流が供給されてリアルタイムに薬の取出し(服用)検知でき、したがって、電流の供給管理に留意する必要がないPTP包装体構造を提供することを目的とする。 The present invention solves the above-mentioned conventional problems, and it is not necessary to constantly supply an electric current, and an electric current is automatically supplied at the time of taking out (taking) the drug, and the drug is taken out (taking) in real time. It is an object of the present invention to provide a PTP package structure that can be detected and therefore does not require attention to current supply control.

本発明に係るPTP包装体構造は、PTPの薬取り出し口に対向させて、可撓性を有し他端部が固定された絶縁体の一端部を介在させた可撓性を有する導電体が設けられ、薬の取り出し時に該薬に押圧されて前記絶縁体の一端部が前記導電体間から除去されて、該導電体間に通電回路を形成することを特徴とする(請求項1)。 In the PTP package structure according to the present invention, a flexible conductor having flexibility and having one end of an insulator to which the other end is fixed is interposed so as to face the drug outlet of PTP. It is characterized in that, when the medicine is taken out , one end of the insulator is removed from between the conductors by being pressed by the medicine to form an energizing circuit between the conductors (claim 1).

前記PTP包装体構造による薬の取出し(服用)情報は、該PTP包装体構造に近接して配置したリーダライタからの電波により前記PTP包装体構造の通電回路が反応し、該通電回路の情報をリーダライタが読み取って薬の服用管理及び指導等が行われる。ここでは前記PTP包装体構造とリーダライタとが無接触の状態で情報の交換が行われPTP包装構造は電池を必要としない。 The information on taking out (taking) medicines by the PTP package structure is obtained by reacting the energization circuit of the PTP package structure with radio waves from a reader / writer arranged close to the PTP package structure, and information on the energization circuit. The reader / writer reads and manages the medication and gives guidance. Here, information is exchanged in a state where the PTP package structure and the reader / writer are not in contact with each other, and the PTP package structure does not require a battery.

本発明の実施の一形態は、前記通電回路がRFIDであることを特徴とする(請求項2)。この実施の一形態によれば、薬およびその服用に関する情報、患者およびその他の情報をRFIDに記録しておくことにより、リーダライタにより前記の情報を読み取って服用管理及び指導等が行われる。 One embodiment of the present invention is characterized in that the energizing circuit is an RFID (claim 2). According to this embodiment, by recording the information on the medicine and its administration, the patient and other information on the RFID, the reader / writer reads the above information to perform administration and guidance.

本発明の実施の一形態は、前記通電回路がアンテナであることを特徴とする(請求項3)。この実施の一形態によれば、薬の取出し(服用)情報をアンテナを介して電波により隣室、薬局、病院、その他情報を必要とする各所に送ることができる。 One embodiment of the present invention is characterized in that the energizing circuit is an antenna (claim 3). According to this embodiment, the information on taking out (taking) medicines can be sent to the next room, a pharmacy, a hospital, or other places where information is needed by radio waves via an antenna.

本発明の実施の一形態は、前記PTP包装体構造が電池を有することを特徴とする(請求項4)。この実施の一形態によれば、薬の取出し(服用)情報を各種の通信手段を用いて直接、隣室、薬局、病院、その他の各所に送ることができる。 One embodiment of the present invention is characterized in that the PTP package structure has a battery (claim 4). According to this embodiment, the information on taking out (taking) medicines can be sent directly to the next room, a pharmacy, a hospital, or other places by using various communication means.

本発明によれば、常に電流を供給する必要がなく、薬の取出し(服用)を検知でき、したがって、電流の供給管理に留意をする必要がない効果が得られる。 According to the present invention, it is not necessary to constantly supply an electric current, and it is possible to detect the withdrawal (administration) of a drug, and therefore, it is not necessary to pay attention to the current supply control.

PTP包装体の断面図である。It is sectional drawing of a PTP package. PTPシートの斜視図である。It is a perspective view of a PTP sheet. 通電回路の一実施例を示す説明図である。It is explanatory drawing which shows one Example of the energization circuit.

以下、図面を参照して、本発明の実施の一形態について説明する。 図5はPTPシート5であり、その表面には複数のPTP包装体21が並列配置されている。 Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 5 is a PTP sheet 5, and a plurality of PTP packages 21 are arranged in parallel on the surface thereof.

PTP包装体21は、図4に示すように、錠剤22が置かれる底部シート23と該底部シート23上に置かれた前記錠剤22を上方から包み込む半円状部を有する上部シート24とで構成されている。 As shown in FIG. 4, the PTP package 21 is composed of a bottom sheet 23 on which the tablet 22 is placed and an upper sheet 24 having a semicircular portion that wraps the tablet 22 placed on the bottom sheet 23 from above. Has been done.

前記底部シート23はアルミ箔などの容易に破ることができる素材であり、前記上部シート24を指で押圧すると錠剤22の下降によって破れて該錠剤22を取り出すことができる。したがって、前記錠剤22の取出し口25は底部シート23部である。 The bottom sheet 23 is a material that can be easily torn, such as aluminum foil, and when the upper sheet 24 is pressed with a finger, it is torn by the descent of the tablet 22 and the tablet 22 can be taken out. Therefore, the take-out port 25 of the tablet 22 is the bottom sheet 23 part.

本発明のPTP包装構造体Aは、図1に示すように、前記PTP包装体21の錠剤22の取り出し口25に対向させて、絶縁体1の一端部1aを介在させた可撓性を有する導電体2、2が設けられる。前記絶縁体1は可撓性のシート等からなり、その一端部1a が前記導電体2、2の間から抜き取りできるように挟持されている。一方、絶縁体1の他端部1bは固定されている。なお、導電体2、2は線体であってもよい。図中、3、3は配線である。
As shown in FIG. 1, the PTP packaging structure A of the present invention has flexibility such that one end portion 1a of the insulator 1 is interposed so as to face the outlet 25 of the tablet 22 of the PTP packaging 21. Conductors 2 and 2 are provided. The insulator 1 is made of a flexible sheet or the like, and one end portion 1a thereof is sandwiched so that it can be pulled out from between the conductors 2 and 2. On the other hand, the other end 1b of the insulator 1 is fixed. The conductors 2 and 2 may be linear. In the figure, 3 and 3 are wirings.

図2に前記PTP包装体21から錠剤22を取り出す状態を示す。該錠剤22の取り出しは、前記PTP包装体21を形成する上部シート24を指で押圧することによって行われる。 FIG. 2 shows a state in which the tablet 22 is taken out from the PTP package 21. The tablet 22 is taken out by pressing the upper sheet 24 forming the PTP package 21 with a finger.

本発明では、前記PTP包装体21の上部シート24を指で押圧すると、内部の錠剤22がPTP包装体21の底部シート23を破り、同時に取出し口25が形成される。続いて錠剤22が前記絶縁体1と導電体2、2との重合部を押圧する。 In the present invention, when the upper sheet 24 of the PTP package 21 is pressed with a finger, the tablet 22 inside breaks the bottom sheet 23 of the PTP package 21 and at the same time, the outlet 25 is formed. Subsequently, the tablet 22 presses the overlapping portion between the insulator 1 and the conductors 2 and 2.

その結果、前記絶縁体1と前記導電体2、2との重合部が下方に撓み前記導電体2、2間に挟持されていた絶縁体1の一端部1aが前記導電体2、2間から抜き取られ導電体2、2が接続して図3に示す通電回路4が形成される。 As a result, the overlapping portion between the insulator 1 and the conductors 2 and 2 bends downward, and one end portion 1a of the insulator 1 sandwiched between the conductors 2 and 2 is separated from between the conductors 2 and 2. The extracted conductors 2 and 2 are connected to form the energization circuit 4 shown in FIG.

同時に前記錠剤22が前記絶縁体1と前記導電体2、2間に形成された隙間から錠剤22が外へ取り出されて服用が行われる。すなわち、前記導電体2、2の接続によって薬の取出し(服用)が確認される。 At the same time, the tablet 22 is taken out from the gap formed between the insulator 1 and the conductors 2 and 2 and taken. That is, the taking out (taking) of the medicine is confirmed by the connection of the conductors 2 and 2.

つぎに、前記PTP包装体構造が電池を有する実施の一形態を説明する。この実施例では、図6に示すように、前記図3に示した通電回路中に電池6が介在させられる。同図中の他の符号は図3と同様である。 Next, an embodiment in which the PTP package structure has a battery will be described. In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 6, the battery 6 is interposed in the energization circuit shown in FIG. The other reference numerals in the figure are the same as those in FIG.

なお、前記通電回路4は、薬の取出し(服用)の検知に限らず、RFID、アンテナ、その他目的に応じて機能を発揮するものでもよい。図3及び図6において、1が絶縁体、2、2が導電体、3、3が配線である。 The energization circuit 4 is not limited to the detection of taking out (taking) of a drug, and may be an RFID, an antenna, or any other circuit that exerts a function according to a purpose. In FIGS. 3 and 6, 1 is an insulator, 2 and 2 are conductors, and 3 and 3 are wirings.

常に電流を供給する必要がなく、薬の取出し(服用)をリアルタイムに検知することが可能でありPTP包装体構造として有用である。なお、本発明のPTP包装体構造は再利用も可能である。 It is not necessary to constantly supply an electric current, and it is possible to detect the withdrawal (dose) of a drug in real time, which is useful as a PTP package structure. The PTP package structure of the present invention can be reused.
