2 is a diagram showing an example of a virtual warehouse created by a server according to an embodiment of the present invention.

The virtual warehouse may be created for each storage location where at least one medical device is actually stored. Each storage location is managed by each manager terminal 200, and upon request of the manager terminal 200 that manages each storage location, the server 100 creates a virtual warehouse corresponding to the storage location. .

Referring to FIG. 2 , manager terminals A to N are manager terminals that manage storage locations A to N, respectively, and are stored in storage locations A to N managed by manager terminals A to N, respectively. By individually requesting the server 100 to create corresponding virtual warehouses A to N, virtual warehouses corresponding to storage locations are created by the server 100, respectively.

In this way, if virtual warehouses A to N are created for each storage location A to N, at least one medical device actually stored in storage locations A to N is stored in the created virtual warehouses A to N, respectively ( registered).

Here, the at least one medical device may include not only medical devices used in medical institutions for diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation, but also medical supplies (consumables) such as injection solutions, stethoscopes, needles, wheelchairs, and gauze. may, but is not limited thereto.

3 is a flowchart illustrating an inventory management method based on a virtual warehouse platform according to an embodiment of the present invention.

First, when the manager terminal 200 transmits a virtual warehouse creation request to request creation of a virtual warehouse corresponding to a storage warehouse in which at least one medical device is currently stored (S201), the server 100 creates the virtual warehouse Based on the request, a virtual warehouse for the manager terminal 200 and its storage warehouse is created (S203).

Thereafter, when the manager terminal 200 receives a creation completion notification from the server 100 notifying that the creation of the virtual warehouse has been completed (S205), the server 100 stores storage including information about the medical devices currently stored in the storage warehouse. An information setting request is transmitted (S207).

Based on the storage information setting request received from the manager terminal 200, the server 100 stores information about the medical device as storage information in a virtual warehouse corresponding to the storage warehouse (S209), and displays the storage information in at least one manager terminal. The medical device list is updated by adding the stored storage information to the medical device list in which all storage information stored in each of the plurality of virtual warehouses created by the storage device is collected (S211).

Thereafter, when the server 100 receives a specific medical device provision request requesting provision of a specific medical device from the user terminal 300 (S213), the user terminal 300 provides the provision based on the specific medical device provision request. A medical device matching the requesting medical device is searched for and a virtual warehouse where the searched medical device is stored is checked (S215). At this time, the server 100 may check the most recently updated list of medical devices and search for matching medical devices.

The server 100 transmits transfer request information requesting transfer of the searched medical device to the manager terminal 200 corresponding to the identified virtual warehouse (S217), and the manager terminal 200 confirms the transfer request information. and confirms whether the transfer of the requested medical device is possible (S219).

When the manager terminal 200 transmits the transfer approval information including the confirmation result to the server 100 (S221), the server 100 checks whether the transfer is permitted or rejected based on the transfer approval information (S223). ).

As a result of the check, if the transfer is allowed, the server 100 transmits transfer permission information including storage information of the medical device transfer permission to the user terminal 300 . In this case, the transfer permission information may include all storage information of the medical device that is allowed to be transferred, or may include only some information according to preset conditions.

When the controller 105 receives a virtual warehouse creation request as a request for creating a virtual warehouse corresponding to a storage place where at least one medical device is currently stored from the manager terminal 200, the controller 105 creates a virtual warehouse according to the request, When a storage information setting request is received as a setting request for information on at least one medical device stored in the storage location from the manager terminal 200, the setting information included in the request is stored as storage information for the created virtual warehouse. do.

Meanwhile, when a request for provision of a specific medical device is received from the user terminal 300, the control unit 105 searches for a medical device that matches the requested medical device within the virtual warehouse based on pre-stored storage information, Transfer request information for requesting transfer of the searched medical device is transmitted to the manager terminal 200, and when transfer approval information is received from the manager terminal 200, the user terminal 300 is directed to the previously searched medical device. Transfer permission information is transmitted.

In addition, when the transfer completion information is received from the user terminal 300, the control unit 105 issues and provides virtual currency for the department or institution corresponding to the manager terminal 100 that has transferred the medical device, and provides the transferred information. Storage information corresponding to the medical device is checked and deleted from the virtual warehouse being stored. Here, virtual currency is accumulated and managed for departments or institutions, and the control unit 105 calculates an incentive or score according to a preset standard based on the accumulated virtual currency for each preset period. For example, incentives or points can be calculated based on the estimated cost that would have occurred if the transferred medical device was disposed of without being transferred or if it was newly purchased. It may be set as a standard, but is not limited thereto.

In this way, by providing benefits such as financial compensation or reflection in personnel evaluation to the relevant department or institution, it is possible to motivate the virtual warehouse flat-based medical device management service.

Meanwhile, the control unit 105 transmits period expiration information to the manager terminal 100 at a certain point in time according to preset conditions based on storage periods of each medical device stored in a plurality of virtual warehouses. For example, it is set to transmit period expiration information notifying that the storage period has arrived (imminent) before the storage period arrives, or to transmit period expiration information notifying that the storage period has expired and should be discarded after the storage period has arrived. It can be.

Meanwhile, when the control unit 105 receives transfer completion information notifying that transfer of a specific medical device has been completed from the user terminal 300 or discarding information notifying that a specific medical device has been discarded from the manager terminal 200, the controller 105 receives the specific medical device transfer completion information. Delete medical devices from the virtual warehouse where they are stored. However, when the specific medical device is discarded, the introduction date and the discard date are checked based on the storage information to calculate the expiration date, and the use cycle of the medical device can be separately stored and managed as a database. Here, the discard information may include information on at least one of the type, model name, management department, management number, and discard date of the discarded medical device.
