Description

Remote medical treatment system for a ship

The present invention relates to a remote health care support system for ships, and remotely via sea and land using communication satellites including inmarsat satellites for health care, emergency treatment, and prescription of medicine to the crew of the ship in operation at sea. The present invention provides a remote health care support system for ships that checks the health of the crew.

Currently, medical specialists, including most specialists, are distributed around urban populations, which are concentrated in the land, and people of mountainous islands or islands are not provided with high quality medical services due to geographical characteristics and lack of medical personnel. It is true.

In particular, in the case of ships sailing in the sea, there are no specialized medical measures for maritime isolation or distress of crew members operating at sea, so simple injectable or emergency first aid by captain or crew is only available. It takes several days to get to the port for use of onshore medical institutions.

In addition, in most cases, helicopters are not used because medical activities are not provided by medical personnel who can provide professional medical services in case of serious or emergency patients due to accidents or diseases. This is done only after transport to a medical center on land.

The reason why high-quality medical services are not provided on ships operating at sea is because there are no mandatory rules for the boarding of medical professionals on fishing vessels or coastal waters, and medical personnel are reluctant to board them. The ability to cope with medical behaviors of patients during the course of life is significantly reduced.

In addition, since medical activities must be performed in a ship in operation, that is, in a dynamic location, such as medical centers on land, there is a disadvantage in that it is impossible to use a high-speed communication network using land lines or optical communication networks.

Recently, as the spread of high-speed communication networks such as leased lines has spread, telemedicine diagnosis systems between medical centers in the land area or between medical personnel and patients are spreading, but they are still insignificant, and ships cannot use wired communication networks. It is pointed out that the remote medical diagnosis of a ship moving at a long distance is impossible.

In addition, unlike the medical equipment fixed on the land, the medical diagnostic system provided on the ship operating at sea may frequently cause a system failure due to the vibration of the ship, and the durability is improved to prevent such a system failure. Medical diagnostic devices with vibration protection must be developed urgently.

Since the system of operating and managing the interconnected medical and marine medical institutions is an important part directly connected to the life of the patient, which cannot be changed, it is very important that the check and recovery of errors be resolved quickly.

Thus, considering the fact that the day after day when the sea emergency situation is more dependent on the system of specialized medical institutions on land, it can be said that it is a serious situation that can threaten the life of the crew at sea.

Therefore, the present invention has been made to solve the above problems, the object of the present invention, remote medical support for land / marine telemedicine as a marine telemedicine system for coping with diseases or accidents to the marine crew The remote vessel medical treatment system aims to establish a remote medical support system for land and sea where the medical and marine personnel can send and receive the crew's health information data in real time through the server for quick treatment and prescription.
