As shown in, the tooth part under treatment is located at the upper right, upper left, lower right,
A symbol indicating the lower left corner, a number indicating the position of the tooth, and a bridge of teeth (a method of making up a missing tooth by making a bridge using two or more adjacent teeth as an abutment) ) It was created by writing using a circle and the like that indicate that it is an abutment. Here, in the description example of the chart shown in FIG. 6, the teeth of the upper right No. 7 and the upper right No. 4 serve as an abutment of the bridge, and assist the teeth of the upper right No. 6 and the upper right No. 5. It is shown that. However, if a medical record is created by handwriting in this way, the number of patients increases and the amount of medical record increases, making it difficult to secure a storage location and manage the medical record.

By the way, conventionally, a plurality of data are input from an input device and stored in a storage device, the data is displayed on a display device such as a CRT, and a desired data processing operation is performed using a predetermined operating device. There is an electronic filing system that can. Therefore, it is only necessary to store and manage a huge amount of medical charts for dental treatment using such an electronic filing system.

[0004]

By the way, in order to create a medical chart for dental treatment by using the electronic filing system as described above, the operation is simple, and the display is made by handwriting. Must be close. That is, it is necessary to be able to determine the tooth treatment state at a glance just by looking at the display screen in which the tooth treatment state is set. Especially in the field of dentistry, it is necessary to distinguish between treatment of a bad tooth (dental caries or no tooth) and treatment of the tooth as an abutment of a bridge. I won't. Therefore, the data setting method must also be compatible with the data processing,
Moreover, the setting method should not be difficult.
Further, in order to simplify the operation, it is necessary to reduce the procedure of the operation.

Therefore, the present invention has been made by paying attention to the above points, and in making a dental chart by an electronic filing system, it was treated with bad teeth (dental caries or a state without teeth). It is a display method that distinguishes between the treatment of teeth as a bridge abutment and a data setting method corresponding to the display method, and an object thereof is to provide an electronic filing system which is easy to operate. To do.

[0006]

As a means for achieving the above object, the present invention provides a video display device for displaying data on a screen, an input device for performing an input operation for data processing, and a data processing device. An electronic filing system having a storage device for storing the stored data, the image display device that performs data processing according to an input operation of the input device, and a data processing device that controls the storage device, The data processing device displays, for each of a plurality of components in a row, an identifier corresponding to a plurality of states including at least a state where the component is defective and a state where an adjacent component is assisted. Data is set by displaying on the screen of the device and selecting one of the identifiers for each of the parts using the input device. When the Luo data setting end command is inputted is intended to provide an electronic filing system, characterized in that to be stored in the storage device into a symbol string corresponding to the set identifier.

[0007]

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. FIG. 1 is a diagram showing a schematic configuration of an electronic filing system of the present invention. In FIG. 1, the electronic filing system 1 includes a video display device 2 for displaying data on a screen such as a CRT, an input device 3 for performing a desired input operation on the electronic filing system 1, and the input device 3. It has a data processing device 4 for performing a predetermined data processing in accordance with the input operation of, and a storage device 5 for storing the data transferred from the data processing device 3.

The input device 3 is a screen position instructing means 3a such as a mouse capable of instructing a position on the CRT screen of the display device 2 and a data input means 3b such as a keyboard for inputting a patient identifier or the like. Have and. In order to indicate the position on the screen of the display device 2 using the screen position indicating means 3a, the cursor 12 (see FIG. 3) moving on the screen by the screen position indicating means 3a is moved to that position, and the position Is performed by pressing a selection button provided on the screen position designating means 3a.

Further, the data processing device 4 is a CRT designated by the screen position designating means 3a of the input device 3.
Position detecting means 4a for detecting a position on the screen, function selecting means 4b for switching a function according to the position detected by the position detecting means, and data for executing data setting according to a command from the function selecting means 4b. Setting means 4c,
It has symbol string conversion means 4d for converting the data set according to the command of the function selection means 4b into a symbol string, and video signal generation means 4e for generating a video signal according to the command of the data setting means 4c.

In the electronic filing system 1, when data is set on the screen of the display device 2 and a certain position on the display screen is designated by the screen position designating means 3a, the designated display screen is displayed. If the upper position is detected by the position detecting means 4a and the detected position is within the data setting area (on the component identification number shown in FIG. 3), the data setting function for setting the data is selected and When the setting operation is executed and the detected position is the setting end area (data setting end area 11 shown in FIG. 3), the setting end function is selected and the setting end operation described later is executed. The operation of the electronic filing system 1 will be described below with reference to the flowchart shown in FIG. 2 and FIGS.
Will be described in detail.

First, when the data setting function is selected on the menu screen, the function selecting means 4b changes the data setting means 4c.
A command for generating a video signal of the initial screen and displaying it on the video display device 2 is output to the video signal generating means 4e via (step 101). On this initial screen, for example, as shown in FIG. 3, numbers (identifiers) indicating identification numbers of parts (teeth) are arranged. Further, a setting end selection area 11 for selecting a setting end function on the screen displaying the part identification number.
Is also displayed. Here, the numbers not circled on the display screen indicate that the component is defective, and the numbers circled indicate that the adjacent components are assisted. That is, if a number that is not circled is set, it indicates that the part corresponding to that identification number is defective (there is no tooth decay or teeth), and the number that is circled is set. For example, it indicates that the part corresponding to the identification number assists the adjacent part (in the state of being the abutment of the bridge). As a display showing the state in which this data is set, FIG.
The reverse display as shown in is used. The selection of the identification numbers of these parts is performed by the screen position designating means 3a of the input device 3 as described above. Furthermore, after this initial screen is displayed, the patient identifier for indicating which patient's data is input device 3
The data input means 3b is used to input the identifier, the identifier is transferred to the data setting means 4c, and the video signal generating means 4e is caused to output a command to display the identifier on the display screen of the video display device 2.

Next, when the screen position instructing means 3a gives an instruction on the screen of the video display device 2, the position detecting means 4a
The designated position is detected, and the position information is used as the function selection means 4
Transfer to b. (102). In the function selecting means 4b, since the transferred position information is the data setting area 10 (on the component identification number), the position information is transferred to the data setting means 4c and the data setting means 4c is made to perform the data setting operation. .

Next, based on the position information transferred from the function selecting means 4a, the data setting means 4c detects whether or not the component corresponding to the position information is set (103). In the data setting means 4c, it is determined whether or not the component corresponding to the position information is set.
The data setting state stored in a temporary storage means (not shown) is checked, and if the data is not set, a command is output to the video signal generating means 4e to reversely display the part number. The video signal generation means 4e that outputs the command changes the display of the video display device 2 by generating a video signal in which the component identification number corresponding to the command is displayed in reverse video. If it is already set,
The command is output so that the part number corresponding to the position information is normally displayed (in a state where it is not highlighted). The video signal generating means 4e, which has output the command, changes the display of the video display device 2 by generating a video signal in which the component identification number corresponding to the command is normally displayed. A display example set in this way is shown in FIG. According to the figure, the teeth to be treated are the teeth 7, 6, 5, and 4 on the upper right, of which the upper right 7 and the upper right 4 are the abutments of the bridge. , Upper right No. 6 and upper right No. 5 indicate defective teeth (there is no tooth decay or teeth). Further, these set data are stored in the temporary storage means in the data processing device 4. Note that the state shown in FIG. 4 is a state after the above-described steps 102 to 103 have been performed several times.

Next, the function selecting means 4b detects, based on the position information transferred from the position detecting means 4a, whether the instructed position is on the part identification number or the setting end selection area 11. (104). Screen position indicating means 3a
If the position designated in step 1 is on the part identification number in the data setting area 10, the function selecting means 4b transfers the position information to the data setting means 4c, and the above-mentioned step 1 is performed.
Returning to 02, the data setting operation is performed again. On the other hand, if it is the setting end selection area 11, the function selecting means 4b
Is a video signal generating means 4e via the data setting means 4c.
To output the command (data setting end command) to change the display of the setting end region 11 to indicate that the setting end region 11 has been selected as shown in FIG. Go to step 105.

Next, the symbol string conversion means 4d converts the set data into a symbol string for storage in the storage device 5,
The symbol string is transferred to the storage device (105). The symbol string conversion means 4d to which the data setting information has been transferred converts it into a symbol string based on the data setting information. FIG. 5 shows an example of correspondence between the data setting information and symbol strings. Incidentally, when the setting data shown in FIG. 4 is converted based on the symbol string shown in FIG. 5, it becomes “cdBE”. Then, the converted symbol string is transferred to the storage device 5 together with the patient identifier. The storage device 5 to which the symbol string is transferred stores the symbol string together with the patient identifier. This completes the data setting operation.

Here, in the symbol string conversion of the data in the above step 105, it is also possible to use a conversion method by a bit pattern which flags the set data. However, some access languages for accessing the database do not support the search by the bit pattern. Considering the use of such an access language, it is effective to use the data conversion method as described above. Further, as another reason for performing the above-mentioned data conversion, there is an advantage that a database which can be easily handled at the time of data retrieval can be constructed.
In other words, the chart data search is not limited to patient-specific search,
The search may be performed depending on the tooth condition. For example, depending on the situation, there is a case where it is desired to output all the data in which the 7th upper right tooth serves as the abutment of the bridge. In such a case, the data stored in the storage device 5 is searched for data having the character "b" (see FIG. 5). As described above, by converting the symbol string corresponding to the identification number indicating the plurality of states of the component (teeth) and storing the symbol string in the storage device 5, it is possible to construct a database that is easy to handle even when a search is performed. Of.

As described above, two states (a state where the component is defective and a state where the component assists the adjacent component) are set and used for the component (teeth) for which the data is set. Since the person can set the data by selecting either of them, the data can be set easily, and at the same time, the set state of the parts, that is, the treatment state of the patient's teeth can be visually confirmed. You will understand. Further, when the setting of the data is finished and the setting end area 11 on the display screen is designated by the screen position designating means 3a, the data setting operation is finished, and the function selecting means 4b automatically operates the symbol string converting means 4d. Since the set data is converted into a symbol string and stored in the storage device, the data storing operation after the setting work is not necessary, and the burden required for the user to learn how to use it can be reduced. The structure of the electronic filing system 1 described above is merely one means for achieving the present invention, and the structure can be variously modified.

[0018]

As described above, according to the electronic filing system of the present invention, the data processing device assists each of a plurality of parts in a row in a state where at least the part is defective and an adjacent part. By displaying an identifier corresponding to a plurality of states including a state of being displayed on the screen of the video display device, and by using the input device to select any of the identifiers for each of the parts. Data is set, and when a data setting end command is input from the input device, it is converted into a symbol string corresponding to the set identifier and stored in the storage device. It is possible to judge the state of the part just by looking at it, and it is possible to construct a database that is easy to handle when searching.
