1 is a diagram for explaining a system for providing a health care service according to some embodiments.

Referring to FIG. 1 , a system 10 providing health care services may include a patient client terminal 100 , a server 200 providing health care services, and a medical staff client terminal 300 .

The health care service provided by the system 10 may refer to a monitoring solution that helps people with chronic diseases to check their health conditions and prevent deterioration of their health conditions, and to help manage their lifestyles and convenience in disease management. there is. Meanwhile, when the system 10 collaborates with a hospital, motivation for self-management may be achieved by a health care service, and a hospital revisit rate may be reduced by expert monitoring.

The health care service provided by the system 10 may be implemented in software such as a mobile application or a computer program. For example, in the system 10, a chronic patient can access a health care service by running a mobile application through a patient client terminal 100 in the form of a smartphone or tablet, and a medical staff such as a doctor or nurse can access a PC. Through the medical staff client terminal 300 of the form, an expert web application may be driven to monitor the condition of a patient with a chronic disease. However, it is not limited to the above example, and the form of providing the health care service may be variously changed as needed.

The patient client terminal 100 may mean a means for communicating with the server 200 in order for a patient with a chronic disease to receive health care services. The chronically ill person may transmit the measurement result of the health indicator to the server 200 through the patient client terminal 100, and check the monitoring data trend graph by period or the entire log from the server 200, or alarm for measurement/medication. function can be provided.

The medical staff client terminal 300 may mean a means for medical staff to receive monitoring data of patients with chronic diseases from the server 200 . Monitoring data generated by the server 200 may be transmitted to the medical staff client terminal 300 and delivered to the medical staff.

The server 200 may perform various functions for providing health care services between the patient client terminal 100 and the medical staff client terminal 300 . For example, in order to prevent a person with a chronic disease from incorrectly inputting a numerical value of his or her health index, the server 200 receives a measurement image of the health index from the patient client terminal 100 and performs text reading on the measured image for monitoring. data can be generated.

2 is a block diagram illustrating elements constituting a server providing a health care service according to some embodiments.

Referring to FIG. 2 , a server 200 providing health care services may include a memory 210 and a processor 220 . However, it is not limited thereto, and other general-purpose elements other than the elements shown in FIG. 2 may be further included in the server 200 providing the health care service.

The server 200 may be a computing device for providing health care services in the system 10 . As described above, data input/output and processing performed by the server 200 may be implemented as a mobile/web application or a computer program. For example, the server 200 may be implemented in the form of a PC, workstation, data center server, cloud server, or hybrid server. However, it is not limited thereto, and the server 200 may be implemented in the form of various electronic devices having processing capabilities.

The server 200 may include a memory 210 as a means for storing various data, instructions, and at least one program or software, and processes various data by executing the instructions or at least one program. As a means for doing so, the processor 220 may be included.

The memory 210 may store various commands for providing health care services in the system 10 . For example, the memory 210 may store instructions constituting software such as a computer program or mobile/web application, and may store various data necessary for executing the application or program.

The memory 210 may be implemented with non-volatile memory such as ROM, PROM, EPROM, EEPROM, flash memory, PRAM, MRAM, RRAM, FRAM, etc., or volatile memory such as DRAM, SRAM, SDRAM, PRAM, RRAM, FeRAM, etc. can be implemented as Alternatively, the memory 210 may be implemented as HDD, SSD, SD, Micro-SD, or the like.

The processor 220 may perform a series of processes for providing health care services in the system 10 by executing instructions stored in the memory 210 . In addition, the processor 220 may perform overall functions for controlling the server 200 and may process various internal operations of the server 200 .

Processor 220 may be implemented as an array of multiple logic gates or as a general-purpose microprocessor. Processor 220 may be composed of a single processor or a plurality of processors. The processor 220 may be integrated with the memory 210, rather than a separate component from the memory 210 for storing instructions. For example, the processor 220 may be implemented in the form of at least one of a CPU, a GPU, and an AP provided in the server 200 .

The processor 220 may be configured to receive a measurement image representing a measurement result of a patient's health indicator from the patient client terminal 100 by executing instructions stored in the memory 210 .

A patient suffering from a chronic disease such as diabetes can measure a health index such as his/her own blood sugar level through a blood glucose meter. However, instead of directly inputting the measurement result by the patient, the measurement result screen of the blood glucose meter may be photographed to generate a measurement image and transmitted to the server 200 . Transmission of the measurement image may be performed by a known wireless data communication method.

Since only the measurement image can be transmitted to the server 200 instead of directly inputting a health index such as a blood glucose level for chronic disease monitoring by a patient, it is possible to prevent a patient from mistakenly or mistakenly inputting a measurement result value incorrectly. there is.

The processor 220 may be configured to extract a reading result of the health index by performing character reading on the measured image by executing instructions stored in the memory 210 .

A measurement result of a health index displayed on the measurement image, for example, a blood glucose measurement result value of a blood glucose meter, may be read through character reading. An optical character recognition (OCR) method may be used as a specific character reading method. A reading result of the health index can be extracted as an accurate numerical value from the measurement image by OCR reading.

Meanwhile, a character reading method for a measured image may not be limited to an OCR method. For example, a neural network structure such as a CNN, which is trained to convert letters or numbers in a given image into text, may be utilized for character reading.

The processor 220 may be configured to generate monitoring data for a health indicator based on a reading result by executing instructions stored in the memory 210 .

When measurement result values of health indicators are extracted as a result of character reading of the measurement image, monitoring data may be generated by collecting and sorting the results. The monitoring data may refer to a graph, chart, or log record of a patient's blood sugar level, blood pressure level, body temperature level, or the like, organized by measurement time or by other standards.

Monitoring data generated based on the reading result may be stored in a separate storage space. For example, the monitoring data may be stored in the memory 210 of the server 200 or may be stored in a mobile DB server provided separately from the server 200 .

The processor 220 may be configured to transmit monitoring data to the medical staff client terminal 300 by executing commands stored in the memory 210 .

When the monitoring data generated as a result of collecting and arranging the patient's health indicators is transmitted to the medical staff client terminal 300, the monitoring data may be provided to the medical staff. Accordingly, the medical staff may grasp progress of the patient's health indicators without having a face-to-face interview with the patient, and accordingly, provide feedback on the monitoring data or recommend the patient to visit the hospital.

Monitoring data is not only provided to the medical staff, but also can be directly confirmed by the patient through the patient client terminal 100 . Accordingly, the monitoring data can be helpful for patients to self-manage by checking the monitoring data and adjusting their lifestyle.

Meanwhile, the health index may be any one selected by the patient from blood sugar level, blood pressure level, and body temperature level of the patient, and the measurement image may be a measurement result image for any one value selected by the patient. The blood sugar level may be measured in units of mg/dL, the blood pressure level may be measured in units of mmHg for each of the systolic and diastolic blood pressures, and the body temperature may be measured in degrees Celsius.

When the patient transmits a measurement image to the server 200 through the patient client terminal 100, the patient can select whether the image he or she has captured is blood sugar, blood pressure, or body temperature. The measurement image is a health indicator of a type selected by the patient, and thus monitoring data generated by the server 200 may be separately generated for blood sugar, blood pressure, and body temperature.

The health indicator is exemplified as any one of blood sugar, blood pressure, and body temperature, but is not limited thereto, and various other physiological characteristics capable of monitoring the health status of a person with a chronic disease, such as weight, are measured through a measuring device. If this is possible, it can be used as a health index in health care services.

Although monitoring of health indicators has been described above, monitoring may also be performed for medications. That is, the processor 220 may further receive a prescription image from the patient client terminal 100 to further extract a result of reading the patient's medicine-taking information, and further generate monitoring data for the medicine-taking information so that the medical staff client terminal ( 300) can be further transmitted.

Monitoring of medication information may also be performed in a manner similar to monitoring of health indicators. When a patient uploads an image of a prescription to the server 200 instead of directly inputting information on medications to be taken by the patient through the patient client terminal 100, character reading of the prescription image is performed and monitoring data for the medication information is performed. can be created.

If the medication information monitoring is additionally performed, the health care service by the system 10 may be provided more effectively. When a patient using the health care service uploads health indicators and medication information through the patient client terminal 100, the health indicators and medication information can be transmitted to medical staff by the system 10, and the medical staff provides feedback thereto. can be provided to patients.

Meanwhile, a system message of the health care service according to the system 10 may be delivered to the patient through the patient client terminal 100, and the patient may input his or her personal information in the mobile application of the health care service. For example, on My Page of the mobile application, patients can enter their name, date of birth, height, and weight. Also, in My Page, BMI information automatically calculated from height and weight can be provided to the patient, and in addition, application version, terms of use, etc. can be provided.

FIG. 3 is a diagram for explaining a process of generating monitoring data by performing character reading on a measurement image of a health indicator in a health care service according to some embodiments.

Referring to FIG. 3 , measurement instruments 310 for measuring the patient's health indicators, monitoring data collection process 320 in the server 200, and wireless data communication in the system 10 providing health care services The mobile DB server 340 is provided separately from the wireless network 330 and the server 200 for storing monitoring data.

Various health indicators of the patient may be measured through the measuring instruments 310 . As shown, the measuring instruments 310 may be a blood glucose meter, a blood pressure monitor, and a thermometer, but may further include other biometric measuring instruments. The measurement instruments 310 may display measurement results through a display unit. The patient client terminal 100 may generate a measurement image by capturing measurement results displayed on the measurement instruments 310 .

In the monitoring data collection process 320, the measurement image may be transmitted to the server 200 and undergo a character reading process. As shown, OCR reading or text reading in another method may be performed on the measured image to extract a reading result of a health indicator, and patient monitoring data may be generated therefrom.

The wireless network 330 refers to a wireless communication network such as 3G, LTE, 5G or Wi-Fi for wireless data communication in the system 10, and various other wireless communication methods may be applied.

The mobile DB server 340 may receive and store monitoring data generated by the server 200 . However, as described above, the monitoring data may be stored in the memory 210 inside the server 200, not in the mobile DB server 340 provided separately from the server 200.

4 is a diagram for explaining functions of each module of a server providing a health care service according to some embodiments.

Referring to FIG. 4 , a block diagram 410 showing an operation sequence of modules of the server 200 providing health care services and a table 420 describing functions of each module of the server 200 are shown. .

As shown in the block diagram 410, the health care service provided by the server 200 may operate in order from module ① to module ⑧. Specific functions of module ① to module ⑧ are listed in the table 420, and the operation of the processor 220 described with reference to FIG. 2 can be described in more detail.

Specifically, modification and confirmation of the read result of health indicators collected in module ③ can be performed, security for transmission of monitoring data can be supported in module ④, and monitoring data collected in modules ⑦ and ⑧ A graph/log display of can be performed.

5 is a diagram for explaining a method of reading and recording a blood sugar level of a patient in a health care service according to some embodiments.

Referring to FIG. 5 , captured screens 510 , 520 , and 530 illustrating how a mobile application implementing a health care service according to the system 10 is run in the patient client terminal 100 are shown.

In the capture screen 510 , a measurement result of the patient's health index may be scanned by a photographing means such as a camera of the patient client terminal 100 to generate a measurement image. As shown, a blood glucose measurement image obtained by photographing a blood glucose level measurement result of a patient with a blood glucose meter may be generated and transmitted to the server 200 .

When the measured image is transmitted to the server 200, character reading is performed on the measured image in the server 200, and a reading result of the health indicator can be extracted as in the capture screen 520. As shown, the blood glucose level of 110 mg/dL displayed on the blood glucose meter in the capture screen 510 may be collected as in the capture screen 520 . In addition, the measurement type, such as the date and time of measuring the blood glucose level and fasting blood glucose level, may be collected and recorded together with the blood glucose level.

As in the capture screen 530, measurement records of health indicators (blood sugar levels) may be collected and provided to patients or medical staff. According to the collected measurement records, OCR read values of the health index may be provided for each measurement time, and a measurement image may be attached to each read value so that the measurement system (sphygmomanometer) image may be confirmed.

Meanwhile, in the health care service according to the system 10, various means may be further provided to improve the reliability of text reading of the measurement result of the health indicator, such as the blood glucose measurement value of the blood glucose meter by the server 200.

As an exemplary method for improving the reliability of text reading, the processor 220 may perform text reading on the measurement image by referring to the health indicator input text input by the patient when extracting the reading result.

When the patient scans the measurement result of the health index and transmits the measurement image to the server 200, the patient may input the numerical value of the measurement result visually confirmed by the patient. In such a case, when the server 200 performs character reading on the measured image, the accuracy of character reading can be improved by additionally going through a process of comparing the reading result with the patient's input value.

As another exemplary method for improving the reliability of character reading, a measurement image may be captured to include both a measurement result of a health indicator and a patient's face image, and the processor 220 extracts the reading result, the patient Character reading may be performed when the face image of the patient matches the registered image of the patient previously registered.

When monitoring data for a patient is collected, if other people's measurement results are collected, large noise may occur in the monitoring data. To prevent this, a biometric authentication process may be performed for identity verification. As an example of biometric authentication, facial recognition may be applied, and for this purpose, a measurement image may be captured to include both the patient's face and health index measurement results, and then, when text is read on the measurement image, the patient's face recognition is preceded can be performed

In order to perform facial recognition of the patient, the patient's face may be pre-registered in the server 200, and then it is determined whether the patient's face image included in the measurement image matches the registered image, and the patient's identity is verified. can When such biometric authentication is performed, it can be guaranteed that all collected data is the patient's own, and data reliability can be greatly improved.

As another exemplary method for improving the reliability of text reading, the processor 220 may additionally read surrounding text in addition to the health index in the measurement image to perform text reading, when extracting the reading result, and Even if the type of health indicator is not selected by the method, the type of health indicator can be determined only with the measurement image.

When the patient captures a measurement image through the patient client terminal 100 and transmits it to the server 200, the patient is supposed to select which of blood sugar, blood pressure, and body temperature the corresponding image corresponds to. If the selection process is omitted, the monitoring data collection process can be simplified.

That is, since the measurement image may contain other supplementary texts in addition to the measurement result values of the health indicators, the process of the patient selecting the type of health indicator can be omitted by using these, and accordingly, the patient can select the type of health indicator. It can be prevented from collecting inaccurate figures due to wrong selection. For example, whether the measured value is blood sugar, blood pressure, body temperature, or other health indicators may be determined based on a unit such as 'mg/mL' displayed together with the measured value on the blood glucose meter, or a product brand name of the blood glucose meter. .

As an additional example for improving the reliability of character reading, the processor 200 may perform character reading by correcting a photographing angle and a photographing direction at which a measurement image is photographed when extracting a reading result.

When a photographed image is generated by photographing measurement results of the blood glucose meter, the photograph may be taken by turning the blood glucose meter upside down or the direction or angle at which the blood glucose meter is photographed may be tilted. Even in this case, a method of determining the photographing angle and photographing direction of the measured image and correcting them may be adopted in order to prevent an error from occurring in the reading result.

That is, in the display values of digital measuring devices, depending on the direction, '2' and '5', '6' and '9' can be confused with each other, and '1', '8' or '0' is reversed. Since it can be recognized as the same, it can cause inaccurate reading results. To prevent this, the photographing angle and photographing direction of the measured image are determined in advance, and then reversely applied to make the positive direction, and then character reading can proceed. . For example, the determination of the photographing angle and the photographing direction may be performed based on the display direction of surrounding text.

6 is a diagram for explaining a process of extracting medication information from a prescription image in a health care service according to some embodiments.

Referring to FIG. 6 , captured screens 610 , 620 , and 630 illustrating a process of generating monitoring data for medication information in a mobile application implementing a health care service according to the system 10 are shown.

As in the capture screen 610 , the patient client terminal 100 may scan a prescription for medication information taken by the patient to generate a prescription image. Then, when the prescription image is transmitted to the server 200, the server 200 performs character reading on the prescription image, and a reading result of the patient's medication information may be extracted.

The result of reading the medication information of the patient in the server 200 may be provided to the patient client terminal 100 again as in the capture screen 620 . The patient can check medication information such as the name of the medication, the pharmaceutical company, the medication time, the amount per dose, the number of medications per day, and the total number of days of medication by viewing the reading result of the medication information provided to the patient client terminal 100 .

As in the capture screen 630 , whether or not a medication is taken according to a medication schedule may be recorded, and monitoring data for medication information may be generated and provided to the medical staff client terminal 300 . In addition, the patient can also easily manage medications while checking the monitoring data.

On the capture screen 710, health indicators such as blood sugar, blood pressure, and body temperature and medication information may be comprehensively displayed. According to such comprehensive monitoring of health care services, it may be easier for patients to check their own health conditions.

In the capture screen 720, a trend graph for each period of monitoring data may be provided. The display unit for displaying the monitoring data collected in the server 200 or the external mobile DB server as a graph may be set to any one of 'day', 'week', 'month' and 'year'. Values of health indicators and medication information may be graphed and displayed. Meanwhile, in addition to graphs of monitoring data, entire logs of monitoring data may be provided as record data for analysis.

In the capture screen 730, a health index measurement or an alarm function for taking medicine may be provided. When the patient sets an alarm for measurement of blood glucose level or taking medication through the patient client terminal 100, the corresponding alarm information can be recorded in the server 200, and accordingly, the blood glucose level is measured for the patient at a set time, Or it could sound an alarm about taking diabetes medication.

That is, in relation to various functions including the alarm function of the health care service described in FIG. 7 , the processor 220 executes commands stored in the memory 210 to provide monitoring data to the patient client terminal 100 . It may be further configured to transmit a periodic trend graph, a full log of monitoring data, and alarm data for measurement of health indicators.

8 is a diagram illustrating monitoring data provided to a medical staff through a medical staff client terminal according to some embodiments.

Referring to FIG. 8 , screen captures 810 and 820 of a web application of a health care service run in a medical staff client terminal 300 are illustrated. The web application of the health care service can be executed in the PC web environment.

As in the capture screen 810, the medical staff can check the patient's monitoring data through the web application on the medical staff client terminal 300. Specifically, according to the medical staff client terminal 300, basic information such as the name and date of birth entered by the patient may be provided to the medical staff, and health indicator monitoring data such as BMI, body temperature, systolic/minimum blood pressure, and blood sugar level, and patient information may be provided. Medication information on medications being taken may be provided. In addition, a system message sent from the system 10 or an inquiry message sent personally by the patient may be delivered to the medical staff.

As in the capture screen 820, the web application of the medical staff client terminal 300 may provide a whole log of health indicators such as blood sugar, blood pressure, and body temperature, and a trend graph for each period. In particular, in the case of blood glucose, whether or not fasting may be displayed at the time of measurement, and fasting blood glucose (FPG) and postprandial blood glucose (PPG) may be displayed separately in a display graph for each period.

As in the capture screens 810 and 820, since the medical staff can check the monitoring data for the patient's health index through the medical staff client terminal 300, by reviewing it, accurate values of the health index can be obtained without facing the patient. Based on this, health care services can be provided to patients.

9 is a diagram for explaining a system for providing a health care service further including a hospital client terminal according to some embodiments.

Referring to FIG. 9 , a system 20 for providing a health care service further including a hospital client terminal 900 is shown. The system 20 may refer to a system in which the hospital client terminal 900 is further included in the system 10 of FIG. 1 .

The system 20 may operate in the same way as the system 10, except that the hospital client terminal 900 is additionally included. The hospital client terminal 900 is an electronic device for the hospital administrator to access the health care service according to the system 20, and may be a PC type like the medical staff client terminal 300.

The hospital administrator can access the system 20 in the form of a web application on the medical staff client terminal 300 . The hospital administrator can use a representative account of the hospital, manage hospital information in the system 20, and manage medical personnel belonging to the hospital.

In order to assign a medical staff to a patient in the system 20 , the server 200 may connect the patient client terminal 100 to the hospital client terminal 900 . That is, the processor 220 may be further configured to connect the patient client terminal 100 with the hospital client terminal 900 for allocating medical personnel to patients by executing instructions stored in the memory 210 .

Hospital connection in the above system 20 may be performed in the order of patient request, hospital approval, and hospital staff assignment. The patient may request the server 200 to connect to a specific hospital through the patient client terminal 100, and when the hospital staff returns approval of the request to the server 200 through the hospital client terminal 900. , patient-hospital matching can be made.

After patient-hospital matching is performed, the hospital staff can assign a medical staff to the patient through the hospital client terminal 900 . The medical staff can check the monitoring data of the corresponding patient only for the patient assigned to the medical staff through the medical staff client terminal 300 . Meanwhile, in a similar manner, when a patient requests cancellation of matching and the hospital approves it, the patient-hospital matching may be canceled.

As described above, when the system 20 is provided by adding the hospital client terminal 900 in addition to the configuration of the system 10, the hospital manager who manages the allocation between the patient and the medical staff may intervene, so that the patient in the health care service Monitoring and aftercare can be performed more efficiently.

Meanwhile, as will be described later, patient-hospital linkage may be established from the beginning of a health care service, or hospital linkage may be established while using a health care service without hospital linkage.
