Description

The utility model relates to the field of processing and transmission of data for special applications and can be used to create telemedicine systems that provide rapid exchange of text, graphic, video, sound, multimedia and other information for medical and administrative purposes, the basis of which are computer databases and devices for processing and data transfer.

A device is known that contains blocks of two types, local controllers connected to these devices, a central controller and a card issuing device [US 5225977, cl. G 06 F 15/30].

The disadvantage of this device is the relatively narrow functionality.

It is also known a device comprising at least one device for providing identification codes, at least one device for generating requests and receiving responses to requests, at least one actuating device for performing operations to provide goods or services to a user, connected to a device for generating requests and receiving responses to requests, a central control device, including a device for receiving requests and generating responses to requests associated with the first and second the mouths of the central control device for connecting to communication channels, a device for generating identification codes of goods or services connected to a device for receiving requests and generating responses to requests, a memory device for storing identification codes of goods and services connected to a device for receiving requests and generating answers to requests and with forming device

identification codes, wherein said at least one device for providing identification codes is connected by a communication channel to a first port of a central control device, and said at least one device for generating requests and receiving responses to requests is connected by a communication channel to a second port of a central control device [RU 2162245, C1, G 06 F 19/00, 17/60, 2000].

The disadvantage of this device is the relatively narrow functionality.

The closest in technical essence to the proposed one is a digital integration system for integrating diagnostic devices and processing data into computer systems, containing a controlled monitor, video monitor, personal computer, video recorder, optical disk, network, a module for inputting images related to a personal computer, sound recording and sound reproducing device, information lines, image printer and video recorder with appropriate yazyami [RU 2107323, C1, G 06 F 19/00, 17/30, 1994].

In an integrated form, the well-known system is a subscriber medical stations, which are equipped with computer and peripheral devices with special software that allows you to generate, archive and record medical audio, video and multimedia data [RU 2107323, p.7, paragraph 4].

The disadvantage of the closest technical solution is the relatively narrow functionality, since the known system allows the generation, storage and transmission of sound, video and multimedia information for medical purposes, but does not provide the operational ability to exchange medical information between a large number of subscriber medical stations and medical institutions and medical bases data.

The required technical result is to expand the functionality.

The required technical result is achieved by the fact that a corporate network of medical institutions, a central server and a central database are introduced into the system containing a group of subscriber medical points, while the input-output of a group of subscriber medical points is connected to the first inputs and outputs of the central server and central database, the second input-output of which is connected to the second input-output of the central server, the third input-output of which is connected to the input-output of the corporate network of medical institutions.

The drawing shows a structural diagram of a telemedicine system.

The telemedicine system contains a group of 1 subscriber medical points 1-1 ... 1-k, a corporate network of 2 medical institutions, a central server 3 and a central database 4 of data.

Moreover, the input-output of group 1 of subscriber medical stations is connected to the first inputs and outputs of the central server 3 and the central database 4, the second input-output of which is connected to the second input-output of the central server 3, the third input-output of which is connected to the input- exit of a corporate network of 2 medical institutions.

For example, a group of subscriber medical stations may contain a technological workstation — a Pentium-III PC / 128 MB RAM / 12 GB HDD / 40 × CD / 640 MB MOD / 15 "monitor, a laser printer, a medical workstation (graphic) —Pentium PC -III / 256 MB RAM / 2 × 12 GB HDD / 40 × CD / sound card / 21 "monitor, A4 HP890C color inkjet printer, 12,000-dot Umax color scanner with slide module, Sony 1024 * 800 color digital video camera, microphone, speakers, a Sony 1024 digital camera with batteries and a charger, a 64 MB video card with TV-inputs SVHS outputs (MiroVideo), a database server s: PC Pentium-III / 256 MB RAM / 2 × 8 GB SCSI HDD / 40 × CD / 640MB

MOD / 15 "monitor, archived medical data server - Pentium-III PC / 256 MB RAM / 2 × 8 GB SCSI HDD / 40 × CDRW / 640 MB MOD / 15" monitor, communication server - Pentium-III / 256 MB PC RAM / 12 GB HDD / 40 × CD / 15 "monitor (network + modem + swith_modem - communication equipment), 100 Mb Ethernet network equipment, router, HUB, network cards, UTP connectors and cable, cable boxes and fasteners, 56K fax modem external type USR Robotics Courier with RS232 cable, video conferencing recorder as part of 21 'TV, VCR, camcorder, microphone, speakers, video cassettes, audio recorder, Interfacing with public networks switch-modem for a 1-2 Mbps leased line, interfacing with public networks for MT200 radio channel, network packet filter FPSU-IP (crypto router) and its software, software (software) for workers stations includes standard (system-wide) software and application software (video conferencing, network and telecommunication), telemedicine unit for abdominal and endoscopic operations ST2000, telemedicine unit for endoscopic diagnostics ET2 000, telemetry unit for microscopic studies PM2000, telemedicine unit for ultrasound diagnostics UsT2000 or VIDAR, telemedicine unit for x-ray diagnostics RT2000, equipment for recording and transmitting ECG by telephone GEOLINK.

The corporate network of 2 medical institutions can be built as a corporate intranet network, the servers of which, as well as the central server 3 and the central database 4, can be used servers like HP Proliant DL 380G4 Xeon-3.2 GHz / 800 Mhz / 1MB , 1GB (2 * 512 MB) DDR2.

The telemedicine system operates as follows.

Structurally, the telemedicine system is a data transfer system between subscriber medical points,

equipped with telemedicine equipment and related software, and medical facilities, which are also equipped with telemedicine equipment similar to subscription medical centers, and medical databases for the prompt exchange of text, graphic, video, sound, multimedia and other medical information in the interest of providing medical care.

In the case of a departmental telemedicine system, it can include a corporate network of medical institutions, including central medical institutions, such as medical services, hospitals, hospitals, and a group of subscription medical centers, including regional clinics, hospitals, medical facilities, etc.

The telemedicine system allows for deferred medical consultations of patients, real-time medical video consultations of patients (OnLine mode) from leading medical centers, obtaining reference information on medical topics from open sources (medical servers of Moscow State University, Faculty of Fundamental Medicine, Russian Medical Academy of Postgraduate Education, Russian Academy of Medical Sciences, etc., as well as leading medical centers of Russia and the Military Medical Centers), studying the market of medical equipment, medical supplies and medicines, ordering and purchasing them, promptly searching and ordering pharmacological agents for urgent surgical operations using a unified classifier of pharmacological agents, video monitoring and operational consulting of complex surgical operations by the best specialists of the department in remote regional hospitals, creation of a unified system of distance education for medical personnel of the department, form vanie library of teaching materials in all areas of education at the central server system, paperless

Duplication and distribution of educational and practical materials from the central server to regional medical institutions through communication channels, development of medical consultation methods and training of medical personnel, development of training methods in distance education and teaching of the teaching staff, generalization of experience and development practical proposals for the use of telemedicine technologies in the medical service of the department and in its subordinate units.

Access to existing databases can be organized both through a public network, and through a special high-speed network built on the basis of its own dedicated channels while providing them with the required bandwidth, as well as channel providers using terrestrial and satellite communications .;

The functions of the network administrator and information resources are performed by the department’s medical service, which supports the central database 4 and the central server 3. The medical institutions that are part of the corporate network 2 have access to the telesystem information resources, usually via the corporate network. Regional medical institutions - medical subscriber stations 1-1 ... 1-k, located in regions with an undeveloped communication infrastructure, have access to the information resources of the system through the channels of public networks or satellite communication channels.

If the user, one of the medical subscription points 1-1 ... 1-k, does not know the address of a particular information resource, then he makes a request to the central server 3 of the telemedicine system, where he is redirected to the website containing the requested information resource. If the address of a specific information resource is known, then the user, the corresponding medical subscriber point 1-1 ... 1-k, addresses directly to the public server of the medical institution that owns the specific

information resource. Further, the user, as part of this request, works with this medical institution directly.

Ultimately, all the user’s work comes down to selecting links to the information resource of interest to them in the menu sections and clicking the link to the corresponding web server. Thus, the principles of subscriber communication with the system are the same as for working on the Internet. This is the most economical way of organizing access to information resources and requires minimal costs for creating the necessary hardware and software. However, not all information resources may be submitted for access through websites. The reasons may be different: technical, organizational, financial, etc.

Therefore, the user can get the information resource of interest by referring to the central database 4 of data. This increases the efficiency of receiving and transmitting data. For this, a central processing base of 4 data is used to pre-process and aggregate medical data and organize an effective data retrieval system. For such a regime, it is easier to unify the interface of user access to information resources, it is easier to control the paid use of information resources and dramatically increases the efficiency of searching and receiving data.

Thus, thanks to the introduction of new elements and relationships, the system’s functionality is expanding significantly, since it provides the opportunity not only to generate, store and transmit and receive sound, video and multimedia information for medical purposes, but also to provide an operational opportunity to exchange medical information between a large number of subscriber medical points and medical institutions and medical databases in two modes - the exchange of information between the subscriber mi clauses medical and medical

institutions, as well as in the mode of obtaining aggregated information from a central database.
