DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an emergency notification system for notifying the occurrence of an emergency by operating an emergency button when an emergency such as sudden illness occurs. The present invention relates to an emergency notification system that displays emergency information of a resident on a means and enables a person who has arrived at the site by notification to check the emergency information of the resident.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art There is an emergency notification system that uses a fixed emergency button or a portable emergency button and operates in the event of sudden illness or the like to notify the occurrence of an emergency. In such an emergency report system, when an emergency is reported, a response person or a rescue worker at the report destination goes to the site, and after the emergency treatment, is transported to a hospital.

[0003] At this time, when a suddenly ill patient is transported, if there are hospitals that are out of the hospital or have been hospitalized, the medical data and the like of the patient are accumulated in those hospitals, and there is a high possibility that accurate treatment can be performed. . Therefore, if it is possible to obtain hospitals that are being hospitalized, hospitals that have been hospitalized, and information necessary for inquiring those hospitals, it is possible to quickly arrange hospitals and the like.

[0004] In addition, if information on the past medical history, blood type, and the like relating to a suddenly ill patient can be obtained, it is possible to quickly arrange a hospital.

It is possible to keep it in order.

However, in the conventional emergency report system,
We could not get this information.

[0006]

In the conventional emergency report system, the response staff could not know in advance the information such as the medical history of the resident and the hospital being visited due to privacy issues. When a staff member or a paramedic arrives at the scene, there is a problem that the cause of the fall of the suddenly ill person cannot be specified, and accurate emergency treatment cannot be performed.

[0007] In the case of transporting an acutely ill patient, if there are hospitals that are out of hospital or have been hospitalized, medical data and the like of patients are accumulated in those hospitals, and there is a high possibility that appropriate treatment can be performed. However, when living alone or when no cohabitant is present, the hospitals cannot be known, and there is a problem that a lot of time is spent when arranging the hospital to be transported.

[0008] Even if the name of the hospital used is known, if there is no information necessary for confirmation to the hospital, such as the patient's name and the number of the consultation ticket, it takes a long time to make inquiries and the response is delayed. was there. In addition, blood type,
The sooner you get the information you need for treatment,
Although arrangements can be made quickly, conventional emergency reporting systems have been unable to obtain such information, and have had problems such as delays in handling.

The present invention has been made in view of the above points, and has as its object to provide an emergency notification system capable of promptly and accurately performing emergency treatment and arranging a hospital.
