Abstract

PURPOSE:To make the distinction of a patient clearer by reading a twp- dimensional code from a card and copying at least a part of the two-dimensional code to a clinical chart at the time of issuing the clinical chart. CONSTITUTION:By a keyboard 11, the name of the patient is inputted at the time of a first examination. An information processor 10 converts the name of the patient inputted like this to a KANJI code, controls a consultation card printer 12 and converts the KANJI code to a CALRA code to print to the consultation card. A consultation card reader 14 reads the CALRA code 16a printed to the consultation card 16. Then, an information processor 13 converts read information to the CALRA code again and controls a printer 15 to print the CALRA code to the clinical chart. Namely the CALRA code is printed to a part 17a of the clinical chart 17.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a method of using a two-dimensional code. More specifically, the present invention relates to a method of using a two-dimensional code in the medical field such as a hospital.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In hospitals, especially those in which the work is divided into a reception office, an examination room, an inspection room, a sample inspection room, a pharmacy, etc.
In some cases, a card with a convex portion that displays the patient name in katakana is created and distributed to the patient.

In such a hospital, when the patient comes back, the card is applied to the back side of the carbon formed in a part of the chart, the upper surface is rubbed, and the patient name is written in katakana from the card to the chart. It is being copied. Then, the medical record is circulated to each person in charge of business as described above, if necessary.

[0004]

However, the chart created as described above has the drawbacks that the patient name is written in katakana, the copy is unclear, and the visibility is poor. Therefore, there is a fear that an erroneous judgment of a worker is likely to occur, and a method for eliminating such a fear is desired.

In the method of forming the convex portion on the card as described above, it seems that the numbers and katakana are notable. In magnetic cards, the same limit can be seen.

On the patient side, the name is called in a waiting room, a pharmacy, etc., but if the hearing is impaired, there is the inconvenience that even if the name is called, it will not be noticed. A solution is desired.

On the other hand, in some hospitals, it is found that the number given to each patient is displayed, but the number display has a drawback that recognition is poor. Therefore, there is a risk that the patient may miss it, and it is desired to eliminate such fear.

[0008] A technical problem of the present invention is to address such a problem and to propose a method of making distinction between patients clearer in a method of using a two-dimensional code in medical treatment.

[0009]

A method of using a two-dimensional code according to claim 1, wherein a two-dimensional code indicating a kanji code of a patient name is printed on a card, and the two-dimensional code is issued from the card when a medical record is issued. It is a method of reading a code and copying at least a part of the two-dimensional code to a medical record.

According to the method of using the two-dimensional code of claim 2, the Kanji code of the patient's name is read from the two-dimensional code copied on the chart, and the patient is displayed on the display means arranged in the waiting room or the like based on the Kanji code. The method is to display the name in Kanji.

According to the two-dimensional code of claim 3, in a medical device having a recording medium such as an electrocardiogram and an X-ray photograph, a Kanji code of a patient name is read from the two-dimensional code printed on a medical record, and the Kanji code is also read. In addition, the patient name is written in Kanji on the recording medium.

In the method of using the two-dimensional code according to the fourth aspect, the two-dimensional code printed on the medical chart is read, at least a part of the two-dimensional code is copied to a sample, and the two-dimensional code is extracted from the sample. It is a method of reading and copying at least a part of the two-dimensional code to the inspection document of the sample.

In the method of using the two-dimensional code according to the fifth aspect, the two-dimensional code to be copied on the chart is read, at least a part of the two-dimensional code is copied to the medicinal tare, and the two-dimensional code is copied to the medicinal tare. This is a method of reading a kanji code of a patient name from the dimension code and displaying the patient name in kanji on a display means arranged in a waiting room or the like based on the kanji code.

Copying a two-dimensional code means copying the pattern of the two-dimensional code to the copy destination, reading the information of the two-dimensional code, and then reading an equivalent two-dimensional code to the copy destination based on the information. It means printing and integrally fixing an indirect copy of a two-dimensional code created by such a method to a final copy destination.

A method of using the two-dimensional code according to claim 6 is a method of recording a two-dimensional code for instructing an examination item to be performed on a patient on a card.

A method of using the two-dimensional code according to claim 7 is a method of recording a two-dimensional code indicating a drug to be administered to a patient on a card.

The method of using the two-dimensional code according to claim 8 is a method of reading the two-dimensional code recorded on a card at the time of inspection and collating the read information with the information instructing the inspection. .

A method of using the two-dimensional code according to claim 9 is a method of reading the two-dimensional code recorded on a card and calculating a patient's settlement amount based on the read information.

[0019]

In recent years, a method has been proposed in which information is recorded by a pattern in one direction while a bar code records information by a pattern in one direction. In this specification, such a thing is described as a "two-dimensional code." A typical example of the two-dimensional code is a Karler code.

The inventor of the present invention has focused on the fact that a Kanji code can be recorded even in a card-sized space by using a two-dimensional code such as a Karler code, and what advantages can be obtained by using the two-dimensional code in a hospital. Then, the inventors have invented a method of using the two-dimensional code of the present invention.

According to the method of using the two-dimensional code of the present invention, by copying the Kanji code of the patient name from the card to the chart, it is only necessary to confirm once that the Kanji code of the patient name input when creating the card is correct. The Kanji code of the correct patient name confirmed in this way can be copied to the chart as many times as necessary.

On the examination side, if the kanji notation of the patient name is obtained from the medical record based on the kanji code of the correct patient name as described above, the accuracy of handling the test results such as the electrocardiogram and the handling of the specimen is improved. Will be obtained.

On the patient side, if the patient's name is displayed in kanji based on the kanji code to make a medical examination call and a drug delivery call, even if the hearing is impaired, the person will be called. You can easily recognize that you are.

Further, if the examination items are recorded on the card, it becomes possible to more accurately confirm the corresponding patient in each examination. Also, the settlement amount can be automatically calculated based on the inspection item.
