Description

[Detailed description of the invention] [Technical field of invention] The present invention relates to an information registration and search method for medical information and the like.

[Prior art]

Conventionally, in an information retrieval method in which information is searched based on search information that has a specific item field and a general-purpose field, when multiple data are recorded for a specific item in the search target information, the same The methods used were to set multiple specific items or to record them in a general column along with other data.

However, in the former case, even if multiple identical specific items are set, it will not be possible to deal with cases where the number of identical specific item data exceeds the number of settings, and if a large number of identical specific items are set. However, if the number of data to be registered in that specific item is small, there is a problem that there will be wasted space in the storage device. In addition, if the data is recorded in the general field along with other data, when searching for specific data, the search must be performed twice, once in the specific field and once in the general field, which increases the search time. There was a problem.

[Purpose of the invention]

The present invention was made to solve the problems of conventional information retrieval methods, and even when data to be recorded in the specific item field of search target information is recorded on the general-purpose side, it is possible to search only the specific item field. An object of the present invention is to provide an information registration search method that enables high-speed searching for desired search target information.

[Summary of the invention]

The present invention provides a method for searching information to be searched based on search information consisting of a specific item field of one or more items and a general-purpose side, and an identifier indicating that the data is a specific item in the general-purpose field of the information. By recording the data with the specified identifier and searching for the data with the identifier as the specific item data, it is possible to search for the desired search target information by searching in the specific item column, thereby increasing the speed of the search. It is a measure of change.

[Examples of the Invention] The present invention will be described below based on Examples. FIG. 1 is a block diagram of an information search device for explaining an embodiment of the information registration search method according to the present invention. In the figure, 1
2 is a central processing unit, 2 is a file device that stores search target information U, 3 is an index device that holds an index corresponding to a specific item of search target information, 4 is a display that displays searched information, and 5 is a keyboard. It is.

The search target information stored in the file device 2 includes, for example, medical record number 2 name, as shown in FIG.

A specific item column consisting of each specific item 6 to 9 of disease name 2 years old,
and a general-purpose side 10 for recording comments. In addition, the index device 3 has indexes 1a corresponding to the specific items 6 to 8 of the search target information stored in the file device 2. For example, the disease name index corresponding to the specific type 1'8 is written as follows.
As shown in FIG. 3, it is composed of a disease name index I\III in which the disease name is recorded, and an index atlas column 12 in which the address of search target information in which the disease name is recorded is recorded.

When search target information as shown in FIG. 2 is input from the keyboard 5, the information is stored in the strip file device 2, and indexes corresponding to specific items 6 to 9 of the information are stored in the index device 3. It is now possible to do so.

By the way, in the present invention, when it is necessary to record multiple pieces of data for the same specific item of search target information, for example, if the multiple pieces of data for the same specific item are disease names, the first data (stomach cancer) is Record in the specific item column,
The second and subsequent data (gastritis) are recorded on the general-purpose side with an identifier #4=J indicating that the subsequent data is a disease name.

When the search target information configured in this way is input from the keyboard 5, the information is stored in the file device 2, an index corresponding to a specific item of the information is registered in the index device 3, and the central processing unit 1 It is configured to recognize the identifier # in the general-purpose column of the information r1 and to register the data (gastritis) following this identifier # in the disease name index. FIG. 4 is a flowchart showing the operation when registering such information.

The search target information configured as above is stored in the file device 2.
In an information retrieval device in which an index corresponding to a specific item of the information is stored in the indexing device 3, for example, when specifying to search for search target information with the disease name "gastritis", first the index stored in the indexing device is A disease name index is searched from the indexes listed, and from the address of the information in which the disease name is recorded, search target information corresponding to that address is displayed on the display 4 as a search result.

In this embodiment, the search target information shown in FIG.
"gastritis" is registered in the disease name index of index device 2,
Information not shown in FIG. 2 is displayed on the display 4 as a search result for information in which the disease name is "gastritis."

If there is other search target information for the disease name "gastritis",
The images are sequentially displayed on the display 4 according to instructions from the keyboard 5. FIG. 5 is a flowchart showing the operation when searching for search target information. In this case, the display screen of the display 4 may be divided to display a plurality of pieces of searched information at the same time.

The search target information shown in Figure 2 has ``gastric cancer'' in the disease name column of the specific item column and ``gastritis'' with the disease name identifier # added to the general purpose side, so the search item is ! Of course, even if 1 is designated as the disease name "stomach cancer" or as the disease name "gastritis and gastric cancer", it will be searched either way. In addition, in the above example, there is only one data, J "gastritis", which is the general-purpose Kiryu disease name identifier # in the search target information, but even if multiple data are recorded, they will be registered in the disease name index in the same way. , searched as specific item data.

In addition, although we have given an example of an identifier that indicates a disease name, it is also possible to use separate multiple identifiers that indicate data on multiple other specific items and record multiple pieces of data on each of the other multiple specific items in the general-purpose Kiryu. can.

When there is a request to register multiple disease name data, etc. of the same specific type in the search target information described in I-1 above, it is necessary to set only one identical item such as disease name item in the specific item column. 1) If not, you can register the identifier in General Kiryu, and when searching, check whether data such as disease name data is in the specific item field or in the general field. Regardless, it is possible to perform a search at high speed at the same time.

The above embodiment shows an example using an index, but if you do not use an index, please follow the search instructions in the specific item field.
By configuring the system to sequentially search data in the specific item field and data in which the general-purpose Kiryu identifier is (=J) as specific item data, it is possible to similarly perform a high-speed search.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As explained above based on the embodiments, according to the present invention,
By recording data with an identifier indicating that it is specific item data in the general-purpose Kiryu of search target information,
Since the information is handled in the same way as if it were recorded in the "Specific Type 1" field, it is possible to solve the problem of not being able to record multiple pieces of the same item data that exceed the number of items in the conventional specific field, or simply specifying the information in the general field. This solves the problem of having to perform two searches, one in the specific item field and one in the general field, when recording item data, and makes it possible to record multiple pieces of the same specific item data. Desired search target information can be obtained by performing H searches once, thus making it possible to shorten search time and improve search efficiency.
