Description

被監視者監視システムの中央処理装置および該方法ならびに被監視者監視システムCentral processing unit and method of monitored person monitoring system, and monitored person monitoring system
 本発明は、監視すべき監視対象である被監視者を複数の機器を用いて監視する被監視者監視システムの中央処理装置および中央処理方法、ならびに、前記被監視者監視システムに関する。 The present invention relates to a central processing unit and a central processing method of a monitored person monitoring system for monitoring a monitored person to be monitored using a plurality of devices, and the monitored person monitoring system.
 我が国(日本)は、戦後の高度経済成長に伴う生活水準の向上、衛生環境の改善および医療水準の向上等によって、高齢化社会、より詳しくは、総人口に対する65歳以上の人口の割合である高齢化率が21%を超える超高齢化社会になっている。また、2005年では、総人口約1億2765万人に対し65歳以上の高齢者人口は、約2556万人であったのに対し、2020年では、総人口約1億2411万人に対し高齢者人口は、約3456万人となる予測もある。このような高齢化社会では、病気や怪我や高齢等による看護や介護を必要とする要看護者や要介護者(要看護者等)は、高齢化社会ではない通常の社会で生じる要看介護者よりもその増加が見込まれる。 Japan (Japan) is an aging society, more specifically the ratio of population over 65 years old to the total population due to the improvement of living standards accompanying the post-war high economic growth, improvement of sanitary environment and improvement of medical standards, etc. It is a super-aging society with an aging rate exceeding 21%. In 2005, the total population was about 126.5 million, while the elderly population over the age of 65 was about 25.56 million. In 2020, the total population was about 124.11 million. There is also a prediction that the elderly population will be about 34.56 million. In such an aging society, nurses who need nursing or nursing care due to illness, injury, elderly age, etc., or those who need nursing care (such as those who need nursing care) need to take care in a normal society that is not an aging society. It is expected to increase compared to those who are.
 このような要看護者や要介護者は、病院や、老人福祉施設(日本の法令では老人短期入所施設、養護老人ホームおよび特別養護老人ホーム等)等の施設に入所し、その看護や介護を受ける。このような病院や老人福祉施設等の施設では、要看護者等が看護や介護を受けようとする場合に看護師や介護士を呼ぶために利用される、いわゆるナースコールシステムが一般に設けられている。 Such nurses and care recipients enter hospitals and other facilities such as welfare facilities for the elderly (such as short-term entrance facilities for the elderly, nursing homes for the elderly and special nursing homes for the elderly in Japan). receive. In facilities such as hospitals and welfare facilities for the elderly, so-called nurse call systems that are used to call nurses and caregivers when nurses who need care are seeking nursing or nursing care are generally provided. Yes.
 このような技術の一つとして、例えば特許文献1に開示されたナースコールシステムがある。この特許文献1に開示されたナースコールシステムは、患者が看護師を呼び出すためにベッド毎に設置されたナースコール子機と、患者からの呼び出しに応答するためにナースステーションに設置されたナースコール親機と、患者からの呼び出しに応答するために看護師が携行する携帯端末と、前記ナースコール子機、前記ナースコール親機、前記携帯端末の間の通信を制御する制御機とを有するナースコールシステムであって、前記携帯端末に看護師IDを入力するログイン機能を設けると共に、前記携帯端末のログインを認証する認証サーバを備える一方、前記制御機を複数備えて制御機毎に制御対象の前記ナースコール子機、前記ナースコール親機、及び前記携帯端末のグループが設定され、前記認証サーバは、看護師ID及び携帯端末IDを登録したID情報記憶部と、携帯端末IDの所属グループ及び制御機アドレスを記憶するグループ情報記憶部とを有し、ログイン操作により前記携帯端末から送信された看護師ID及び携帯端末IDが、ID情報記憶部に登録されたIDであれば、ログインを認証して所属するグループの前記制御機のアドレス情報を前記携帯端末に返信すると共に、当該携帯端末と看護師を関連付けする一方、前記携帯端末は、各種操作を行う操作ボタンを表示する表示部と、ログイン認証を受けて入手した所属グループの制御機アドレス情報を基に、当該制御機にアクセスして所属グループの病棟情報、前記ナースコール子機情報、前記ナースコール親機情報等の所属グループ情報、更に他の制御機アドレスの情報を取得し、前記表示部に少なくとも所属グループのナースコール子機及びナースコール親機の呼出ボタンと、通信エリアを変更するために他の制御機にアクセスするエリア選択ボタンを表示する。 For example, there is a nurse call system disclosed in Patent Document 1 as one of such techniques. The nurse call system disclosed in Patent Document 1 includes a nurse call slave installed in each bed for a patient to call a nurse, and a nurse call installed in a nurse station for responding to a call from the patient. A nurse having a parent device, a portable terminal carried by a nurse to respond to a call from a patient, and a controller for controlling communication between the nurse call slave device, the nurse call parent device, and the portable terminal In the call system, the mobile terminal is provided with a login function for inputting a nurse ID, and includes an authentication server for authenticating login of the mobile terminal. A group of the nurse call slave, the nurse call master, and the portable terminal is set, and the authentication server includes a nurse ID and a portable terminal. An ID information storage unit that registers an ID, and a group information storage unit that stores a group to which the mobile terminal ID belongs and a controller address, and a nurse ID and a mobile terminal ID transmitted from the mobile terminal by a login operation are If the ID is registered in the ID information storage unit, it authenticates login and returns the address information of the controller of the group to which it belongs to the portable terminal and associates the portable terminal with the nurse, Based on the display unit that displays operation buttons for performing various operations and the controller address information of the affiliated group obtained through login authentication, the mobile terminal accesses the controller to access the ward information of the affiliated group, the nurse Call slave unit information, belonging group information such as the nurse call master unit information, and other control unit address information are obtained and displayed on the display unit. Also a call button for nurse call handset and nurse call parent device belonging group, and displays the area selection buttons to access other controller to change the communication area.
 前記特許文献1に開示されたナースコールシステムは、制御機ごとに制御対象のナースコール子機、ナースコール親機および携帯端末のグループが設定され、ナースコール子機は、伝送線、廊下灯および有線LANを介して制御機に通信可能に接続されている。このため、前記特許文献1に開示されたナースコールシステムでは、ナースコール子機から送出された呼び出し信号は、1個の廊下灯2を介して制御機に送信される(例えば前記特許文献1の[0015]段落等参照)。したがって、ナースコール子機から送出された呼び出し信号が重複して制御機に送信されることはない。 In the nurse call system disclosed in Patent Document 1, a group of nurse call slave units, nurse call master units, and portable terminals to be controlled is set for each controller, and the nurse call slave unit includes a transmission line, a corridor lamp, It is communicably connected to the controller via a wired LAN. For this reason, in the nurse call system disclosed in Patent Document 1, the call signal sent from the nurse call slave is transmitted to the controller via one corridor lamp 2 (for example, in Patent Document 1). [Refer paragraph etc.). Therefore, the call signal sent from the nurse call slave unit is not duplicated and transmitted to the controller.
 ところで、前記伝送線に代え、無線が利用された場合、ナースコール子機1から送出された1個の呼び出し信号は、複数の廊下灯を介して制御器へ送信される可能性が生じ、この結果、前記1個の呼び出し信号に対し、制御機は、複数の呼び出し信号と誤認し、複数の呼び出し信号それぞれに対しナースコール親機へ通報してしまう虞がある。 By the way, when radio is used instead of the transmission line, there is a possibility that one call signal transmitted from the nurse call slave unit 1 may be transmitted to the controller via a plurality of hallway lights. As a result, with respect to the one call signal, the controller may misidentify as a plurality of call signals, and may notify the nurse call parent device for each of the plurality of call signals.

 次に、本実施形態の動作について説明する。このような構成の被監視者監視システムMSでは、各装置NCRB、NCCB、SU、SV、SP、TAは、電源が投入されると、必要な各部の初期化を実行し、その稼働を始める。管理サーバ装置SVでは、その制御処理プログラムの実行によって、SV制御処理部12には、SV制御部121およびSV監視処理部122が機能的に構成される。センサ装置SUでは、その制御処理プログラムの実行によって、SU制御処理部23には、SU制御部231、行動検知処理部232およびナースコール処理部233が機能的に構成される。 Next, the operation of this embodiment will be described. In the monitored person monitoring system MS having such a configuration, each of the devices NCRB, NCCB, SU, SV, SP, and TA performs initialization of each necessary unit and starts its operation when the power is turned on. In the management server device SV, an SV control processing unit 121 and an SV monitoring processing unit 122 are functionally configured in the SV control processing unit 12 by executing the control processing program. In the sensor device SU, by executing the control processing program, the SU control processing unit 23 is functionally configured with a SU control unit 231, a behavior detection processing unit 232, and a nurse call processing unit 233.
 上記構成の被監視者監視システムMSは、大略、次の動作によって、各被監視者Obそれぞれを監視している。センサ装置SUは、行動検知処理部232によって、センサ部11のセンシング結果に基づいて被監視者Obにおける所定の行動を検知し、前記所定の行動を検知した場合に、前記行動検知通信信号を管理サーバ装置SVへ送信する。 The monitored person monitoring system MS having the above configuration generally monitors each monitored person Ob by the following operation. The sensor device SU detects the predetermined behavior in the monitored person Ob based on the sensing result of the sensor unit 11 by the behavior detection processing unit 232, and manages the behavior detection communication signal when the predetermined behavior is detected. Transmit to server device SV.
 管理サーバ装置SVは、前記行動検知通信信号をセンサ装置SUから受信すると、この行動検知通信信号に収容された被監視者Obに対する前記検知行動情報を記憶(記録)し、前記行動検知通信信号を送信したセンサ装置SUに対応する通報先を通報先情報記憶部131の第1通報先情報テーブル1310aから選定(検索)し、この選定した端末装置SP、TAへ前記検知行動通報通信信号を送信する。これによって被監視者Obにおける所定の行動が端末装置SP、TAを介して例えば看護師や介護士等の監視者に報知される。 When the management server device SV receives the behavior detection communication signal from the sensor device SU, the management server device SV stores (records) the detection behavior information with respect to the monitored person Ob accommodated in the behavior detection communication signal, and stores the behavior detection communication signal. A report destination corresponding to the transmitted sensor device SU is selected (searched) from the first report destination information table 1310a of the report destination information storage unit 131, and the detected behavior report communication signal is transmitted to the selected terminal devices SP and TA. . Thereby, a predetermined action in the monitored person Ob is notified to a monitor such as a nurse or a caregiver via the terminal devices SP and TA.
 固定端末装置SPおよび携帯端末装置TAは、前記検知行動通報通信信号を管理サーバ装置SVから受信すると、この検知行動通報通信信号に収容された前記検知行動情報を表示する。このような動作によって、被監視者監視システムMSは、各センサ装置SU、管理サーバ装置SV、固定端末装置SPおよび携帯端末装置TAによって、大略、各被監視者Obにおける所定の行動を検知して各被監視者Obを監視している。 When the fixed terminal device SP and the mobile terminal device TA receive the detection behavior notification communication signal from the management server device SV, the fixed terminal device SP and the portable terminal device TA display the detection behavior information accommodated in the detection behavior notification communication signal. By such an operation, the monitored person monitoring system MS detects a predetermined action in each monitored person Ob roughly by each sensor device SU, management server device SV, fixed terminal device SP, and portable terminal device TA. Each monitored person Ob is monitored.
 次に、被監視者監視システムMSにおける、ナースコールの動作について、主に、説明する。図9は、実施形態の被監視者監視システムにおける管理サーバ装置の主にナースコールに関する動作を示すフローチャートである。 Next, the operation of the nurse call in the monitored person monitoring system MS will be mainly described. FIG. 9 is a flowchart illustrating an operation mainly related to the nurse call of the management server device in the monitored person monitoring system according to the embodiment.
 本実施形態における被監視者監視システムMSでは、例えば被監視者Ob等によるNCボタン31aに対する入力操作によって、NCボタン31aでナースコールを受け付けると、NC受付操作ボタン装置NCRBは、NC制御処理部32aによって、NC表示部34aにナースコールを受け付けた旨を表示し、自機のNC受付操作ボタンID等を収容した前記第1操作受付通信信号を生成してNC通信IF部33aを用いてセンサ装置SUへ送信する。そして、この第1操作受付通信信号を受信したセンサ装置SUは、この受信した第1操作受付通信信号に収容されたNC受付操作ボタンID等を収容した第1操作受付中継通信信号をSU通信IF部24によって管理サーバ装置SVへ送信する。また、例えば監視者等によるNCCボタン31bに対する入力操作によって、NCCボタン31bでナースコールの解除を受け付けると、NC解除操作ボタン装置NCCBは、NCC制御処理部32bによって、自機のNC解除操作ボタンID等を収容した前記第2操作受付通信信号を生成してNCC通信IF部33bを用いてセンサ装置SUへ送信する。そして、この第2操作受付通信信号を受信したセンサ装置SUは、この受信した第2操作受付通信信号に収容されたNC解除操作ボタンID等を収容した第2操作受付中継通信信号をSU通信IF部24によって管理サーバ装置SVへ送信する。 In the monitored person monitoring system MS according to the present embodiment, when a nurse call is received by the NC button 31a, for example, by an input operation on the NC button 31a by the monitored person Ob or the like, the NC receiving operation button device NCRB causes the NC control processing unit 32a. The NC display unit 34a displays that the nurse call has been received, generates the first operation reception communication signal containing the NC reception operation button ID and the like of its own device, and uses the NC communication IF unit 33a to detect the sensor device. Send to SU. Then, the sensor device SU that has received the first operation acceptance communication signal transmits the first operation acceptance relay communication signal containing the NC acceptance operation button ID and the like contained in the received first operation acceptance communication signal to the SU communication IF. The data is transmitted to the management server device SV by the unit 24. In addition, for example, when the NCC button 31b accepts the cancellation of the nurse call by an input operation on the NCC button 31b by a supervisor or the like, the NC release operation button device NCCB is controlled by the NCC control processing unit 32b by the NC release operation button ID of its own device. The second operation acceptance communication signal containing the information and the like is generated and transmitted to the sensor device SU using the NCC communication IF unit 33b. The sensor device SU that has received the second operation acceptance communication signal transmits the second operation acceptance relay communication signal containing the NC release operation button ID and the like contained in the received second operation acceptance communication signal to the SU communication IF. The data is transmitted to the management server device SV by the unit 24.
 ここで、互いに異なる複数のセンサ装置SUにおける各SU通信IF部24の通信可能範囲がその一部または全部で重複していると、あるいは、1個のNC受付操作ボタン装置NCRBにおけるNC通信IF部33aの通信可能範囲内に複数のセンサ装置SUが配置されていると、1個のNC受付操作ボタン装置NCRBから送信された前記第1操作受付通信信号は、複数のセンサ装置SUで中継され、これら複数のセンサ装置SUそれぞれで中継された複数の第1操作受付中継通信信号を管理サーバ装置SVで受信される場合が生じ得る。例えば、図2に示す例において、第11NC受付操作ボタン装置NCRBから送信された1個の前記第1操作受付通信信号は、第1および第3センサ装置SU-1、SU-3で中継され、2個の第1操作受付中継通信信号を管理サーバ装置SVで受信される場合が生じ得る。同様に、互いに異なる複数のセンサ装置SUにおける各SU通信IF部24の通信可能範囲がその一部または全部で重複していると、あるいは、1個のNC解除操作ボタン装置NCCBにおけるNCC通信IF部33bの通信可能範囲内に複数のセンサ装置SUが配置されていると、1個のNC解除操作ボタン装置NCCBから送信された前記第2操作受付通信信号は、複数のセンサ装置SUで中継され、これら複数のセンサ装置SUそれぞれで中継された複数の第2操作受付中継通信信号を管理サーバ装置SVで受信される場合が生じ得る。例えば、図2に示す例において、NC解除操作ボタン装置NCCBから送信された1個の前記第2操作受付通信信号は、第2ないし第4センサ装置SU-2~SU-4で中継され、3個の第2操作受付中継通信信号を管理サーバ装置SVで受信される場合が生じ得る。 Here, when the communicable range of each SU communication IF unit 24 in a plurality of different sensor devices SU overlaps partly or entirely, or the NC communication IF unit in one NC reception operation button device NCRB When a plurality of sensor devices SU are arranged within the communicable range of 33a, the first operation reception communication signal transmitted from one NC reception operation button device NCRB is relayed by the plurality of sensor devices SU, There may occur a case where a plurality of first operation reception relay communication signals relayed by each of the plurality of sensor devices SU are received by the management server device SV. For example, in the example shown in FIG. 2, one first operation reception communication signal transmitted from the 11th NC reception operation button device NCRB is relayed by the first and third sensor devices SU-1 and SU-3. There may occur a case where two first operation reception relay communication signals are received by the management server device SV. Similarly, when the communicable range of each SU communication IF unit 24 in a plurality of different sensor devices SU overlaps partly or entirely, or the NCC communication IF unit in one NC release operation button device NCCB When a plurality of sensor devices SU are arranged within the communicable range of 33b, the second operation acceptance communication signal transmitted from one NC release operation button device NCCB is relayed by the plurality of sensor devices SU, There may occur a case where the management server device SV receives a plurality of second operation reception relay communication signals relayed by each of the plurality of sensor devices SU. For example, in the example shown in FIG. 2, one second operation acceptance communication signal transmitted from the NC release operation button device NCCB is relayed by the second to fourth sensor devices SU-2 to SU-4. There may be a case where the second operation acceptance relay communication signal is received by the management server device SV.
 このため、本実施形態における被監視者監視システムでは、管理サーバ装置SVは、次のように動作している。 For this reason, in the monitored person monitoring system in the present embodiment, the management server device SV operates as follows.
 図9において、まず、SV制御処理部12は、通信信号の受信か否かを判定する(S1)。この判定の結果、通信信号を受信していない場合には、SV制御処理部12は、処理を処理S1に戻す。すなわち、管理サーバ装置SVは、通信信号の受信を待機している。一方、前記判定の結果、通信信号を受信している場合には、SV制御処理部12は、この受信した通信信号の種別(種類)を判定する(S2)。この判定の結果、この受信した通信信号が第1操作受付中継通信信号(第1操作受付通信信号)である場合や第2操作受付中継通信信号(第2操作受付通信信号)である場合(NC受付通報、NC解除通報)には、SV制御処理部12は、処理S3を実行する。一方、前記判定の結果、この受信した通信信号が第1および第2操作受付中継通信信号(第1および第2操作受付通信信号)ではない場合(その他)には、SV制御処理部12は、この受信した通信信号に応じた適宜な処理(例えば上述した前記検知行動情報の記憶(記録)処理や前記検知行動通報通信信号の送信処理等)を実行し(S11)、処理を処理S1に戻す。すなわち、管理サーバ装置SVは、通信信号の受信を再び待機する。 In FIG. 9, first, the SV control processing unit 12 determines whether or not a communication signal is received (S1). As a result of the determination, if the communication signal is not received, the SV control processing unit 12 returns the process to the process S1. In other words, the management server device SV is on standby for receiving a communication signal. On the other hand, if the communication signal is received as a result of the determination, the SV control processing unit 12 determines the type (type) of the received communication signal (S2). As a result of this determination, when the received communication signal is a first operation acceptance relay communication signal (first operation acceptance communication signal) or a second operation acceptance relay communication signal (second operation acceptance communication signal) (NC For reception notification, NC cancellation notification), the SV control processing unit 12 executes processing S3. On the other hand, if the received communication signal is not the first and second operation acceptance relay communication signal (first and second operation acceptance communication signal) as a result of the determination (others), the SV control processing unit 12 Appropriate processing according to the received communication signal (for example, the above-described storage (recording) processing of the detection behavior information or transmission processing of the detection behavior notification communication signal) is executed (S11), and the processing is returned to the processing S1. . That is, the management server device SV waits for reception of a communication signal again.
 処理S3では、SV制御処理部12は、SV監視処理部112によって、処理S1で受信した通信信号が第1操作受付中継通信信号である場合(NC受付通報)には、この第1操作受付中継通信信号が既に受信しているか否かを判定し、処理S1で受信した通信信号が第2操作受付中継通信信号である場合(NC解除通報)には、この第2操作受付中継通信信号が既に受信しているか否かを判定する。より具体的には、SV監視処理部112は、処理S1で受信した通信信号が第1操作受付中継通信信号である場合(NC受付通報)には、通信状況情報記憶部132に記憶されている通信状況情報テーブル1320における操作受付フィールド1321に、処理S1で受信した第1操作受付中継通信信号に収容されていたNC受付操作ボタンIDを登録したレコードが存在するか否かを判定し、処理S1で受信した通信信号が第2操作受付中継通信信号である場合(NC解除通報)には、通信状況情報記憶部132に記憶されている通信状況情報テーブル1320における操作受付フィールド1321に、処理S1で受信した第2操作受付中継通信信号に収容されていたNC解除操作ボタンIDを登録したレコードが存在するか否かを判定する。この判定の結果、操作受付フィールド1321に、処理S1で受信した第1操作受付中継通信信号に収容されていたNC受付操作ボタンIDを登録したレコードが存在する場合には、SV監視処理部122は、既に第1操作受付中継通信信号を受信していると判定し(Yes)、処理S4を実行し、一方、操作受付フィールド1321に、処理S1で受信した第1操作受付中継通信信号に収容されていたNC受付操作ボタンIDを登録したレコードが存在しない場合には、SV監視処理部122は、既に第1操作受付中継通信信号を受信していないと判定し(No)、処理S5を実行する。また、この判定の結果、操作受付フィールド1321に、処理S1で受信した第2操作受付中継通信信号に収容されていたNC解除操作ボタンIDを登録したレコードが存在する場合には、SV監視処理部122は、既に第2操作受付中継通信信号を受信していると判定し(Yes)、処理S4を実行し、一方、操作受付フィールド1321に、処理S1で受信した第2操作受付中継通信信号に収容されていたNC解除操作ボタンIDを登録したレコードが存在しない場合には、SV監視処理部122は、既に第2操作受付中継通信信号を受信していないと判定し(No)、処理S5を実行する。 In the process S3, when the communication signal received in the process S1 is the first operation reception relay communication signal (NC reception notification) by the SV monitoring processing unit 112, the SV control processing unit 12 performs the first operation reception relay. It is determined whether or not the communication signal has already been received. If the communication signal received in step S1 is the second operation reception relay communication signal (NC release notification), the second operation reception relay communication signal has already been received. It is determined whether it is received. More specifically, the SV monitoring processing unit 112 is stored in the communication status information storage unit 132 when the communication signal received in the processing S1 is the first operation reception relay communication signal (NC reception notification). It is determined whether or not the operation reception field 1321 in the communication status information table 1320 includes a record in which the NC reception operation button ID stored in the first operation reception relay communication signal received in the process S1 is registered, and the process S1. When the communication signal received in step 2 is the second operation acceptance relay communication signal (NC release notification), the operation acceptance field 1321 in the communication situation information table 1320 stored in the communication situation information storage unit 132 is displayed in the process S1. It is determined whether or not there is a record in which the NC release operation button ID stored in the received second operation reception relay communication signal exists. . As a result of this determination, if there is a record in which the NC reception operation button ID accommodated in the first operation reception relay communication signal received in the process S1 is present in the operation reception field 1321, the SV monitoring processing unit 122 Then, it is determined that the first operation reception relay communication signal has already been received (Yes), and the process S4 is executed. On the other hand, the operation reception field 1321 is accommodated in the first operation reception relay communication signal received in the process S1. If there is no record in which the received NC reception operation button ID is registered, the SV monitoring processing unit 122 determines that the first operation reception relay communication signal has not been received (No), and executes the process S5. . As a result of this determination, if there is a record in the operation reception field 1321 that registers the NC release operation button ID contained in the second operation reception relay communication signal received in step S1, the SV monitoring processing unit 122 determines that the second operation reception relay communication signal has already been received (Yes), and executes the process S4. On the other hand, the operation reception field 1321 indicates that the second operation reception relay communication signal has been received. When there is no record in which the stored NC release operation button ID is registered, the SV monitoring processing unit 122 determines that the second operation reception relay communication signal has not been received (No), and performs the process S5. Execute.
 処理S4では、SV制御処理部12は、SV監視処理部112によって、処理S1で受信した通信信号が第1操作受付中継通信信号である場合(NC受付通報)には、最初に受信した第1操作受付中継通信信号の受信時刻から所定の第1時間内に受信された通信信号であるか否かを判定し、処理S1で受信した通信信号が第2操作受付中継通信信号である場合(NC解除通報)には、最初に受信した第2操作受付中継通信信号の受信時刻から所定の第1時間内に受信された通信信号であるか否かを判定する。より具体的には、SV監視処理部112は、処理S1で受信した通信信号が第1操作受付中継通信信号である場合(NC受付通報)には、通信状況情報記憶部132に記憶されている通信状況情報テーブル1320における操作受付フィールド1321に、処理S1で受信した第1操作受付中継通信信号に収容されていたNC受付操作ボタンIDを登録したレコードにおいて、そのタイマー状況フィールド1323にフラグ「0」を登録するレコードが存在するか否かを判定し、処理S1で受信した通信信号が第2操作受付中継通信信号である場合(NC解除通報)には、通信状況情報記憶部132に記憶されている通信状況情報テーブル1320における操作受付フィールド1321に、処理S1で受信した第2操作受付中継通信信号に収容されていたNC解除操作ボタンIDを登録したレコードにおいて、そのタイマー状況フィールド1323にフラグ「0」を登録するレコードが存在するか否かを判定する。この判定の結果、処理S1で受信した通信信号が第1操作受付中継通信信号である場合(NC受付通報)において、タイマー状況フィールド1323にフラグ「0」を登録するレコードが存在する場合には、SV監視処理部122は、最初に受信した第1操作受付中継通信信号の受信時刻から所定の第1時間内に受信された通信信号であると判定し(Yes)、処理S7を実行し、一方、タイマー状況フィールド1323にフラグ「0」を登録するレコードが存在しない場合(すなわち、タイマー状況フィールド1323にフラグ「1」を登録するレコードのみが存在する場合)には、SV監視処理部122は、最初に受信した第1操作受付中継通信信号の受信時刻から所定の第1時間内に受信された通信信号ではないと判定し(No)、処理S5を実行する。この判定の結果、処理S1で受信した通信信号が第2操作受付中継通信信号である場合(NC解除通報)において、タイマー状況フィールド1323にフラグ「0」を登録するレコードが存在する場合には、SV監視処理部122は、最初に受信した第2操作受付中継通信信号の受信時刻から所定の第2時間内に受信された通信信号であると判定し(Yes)、処理S7を実行し、一方、タイマー状況フィールド1323にフラグ「0」を登録するレコードが存在しない場合(すなわち、タイマー状況フィールド1323にフラグ「1」を登録するレコードのみが存在する場合)には、SV監視処理部122は、最初に受信した第2操作受付中継通信信号の受信時刻から所定の第2時間内に受信された通信信号ではないと判定し(No)、処理S5を実行する。 In the process S4, when the communication signal received in the process S1 is the first operation reception relay communication signal (NC reception notification) by the SV monitoring processing unit 112, the SV control processing unit 12 receives the first received first. When it is determined whether or not the communication signal is received within a predetermined first time from the reception time of the operation reception relay communication signal, and the communication signal received in step S1 is the second operation reception relay communication signal (NC In the cancellation notification), it is determined whether or not the communication signal is received within a predetermined first time from the reception time of the second operation reception relay communication signal received first. More specifically, the SV monitoring processing unit 112 is stored in the communication status information storage unit 132 when the communication signal received in the processing S1 is the first operation reception relay communication signal (NC reception notification). In the record in which the NC reception operation button ID accommodated in the first operation reception relay communication signal received in the process S1 is registered in the operation reception field 1321 in the communication status information table 1320, a flag “0” is stored in the timer status field 1323 thereof. If the communication signal received in step S1 is the second operation acceptance relay communication signal (NC release notification), it is stored in the communication status information storage unit 132. In the operation reception field 1321 in the communication status information table 1320, the second operation reception relay communication signal received in the process S1 is stored. In record registered NC release operating button ID which has been, judges whether the record to register the flag "0" to the timer status field 1323 is present. If the result of this determination is that the communication signal received in step S1 is the first operation acceptance relay communication signal (NC acceptance notification), and there is a record that registers the flag “0” in the timer status field 1323, The SV monitoring processing unit 122 determines that the communication signal is received within a predetermined first time from the reception time of the first operation reception relay communication signal received first (Yes), and executes the process S7. When there is no record that registers the flag “0” in the timer status field 1323 (that is, when there is only a record that registers the flag “1” in the timer status field 1323), the SV monitoring processing unit 122 It is determined that the communication signal is not received within a predetermined first time from the reception time of the first operation reception relay communication signal received first (No), S5 to run. As a result of this determination, if the communication signal received in the process S1 is the second operation acceptance relay communication signal (NC release notification), and there is a record for registering the flag “0” in the timer status field 1323, The SV monitoring processing unit 122 determines that the communication signal is received within a predetermined second time from the reception time of the second operation reception relay communication signal received first (Yes), and executes the process S7. When there is no record that registers the flag “0” in the timer status field 1323 (that is, when there is only a record that registers the flag “1” in the timer status field 1323), the SV monitoring processing unit 122 It is determined that the communication signal is not received within a predetermined second time from the reception time of the second operation reception relay communication signal received first (No), S5 to run.
 処理S5では、SV制御処理部11は、SV監視処理部122によって、処理S1で受信した通信信号が第1操作受付中継通信信号である場合(NC受付通報)には、前記ナースコール受付処理を実行し、処理S1で受信した通信信号が第2操作受付中継通信信号である場合(NC解除通報)には、前記ナースコール解除処理を実行する。より具体的には、SV監視処理部122は、処理S1で受信した通信信号が第1操作受付中継通信信号である場合(NC受付通報)には、通報先情報記憶部131に記憶された第2通報先情報テーブル1310bから、処理S1で受信した第1操作受付中継通信信号に収容されたNC受付操作ボタンIDを通報元フィールド1313に登録するレコードを検索し、この検索したレコードにおける通報先フィールド1314に登録された端末IDを通報先として取り出し、この取り出した端末IDに対応する端末装置SP、TAへ、ナースコールを受け付けた旨を表す情報、および、処理S1で受信した第1操作受付中継通信信号に収容されたNC受付操作ボタンID等を収容したNC通報報通信信号をSV通信IF部11によって送信する。これによってNC受付操作ボタン装置NCRBで受け付けたナースコールが通報される。また、SV監視処理部122は、処理S1で受信した通信信号が第2操作受付中継通信信号である場合(NC解除通報)には、対応関係情報記憶部133に記憶された対応関係情報テーブル1330から、処理S1で受信した第2操作受付中継通信信号に収容されたNC解除操作ボタンIDをNC解除操作ボタンフィールド1331に登録するレコードを検索し、この検索したレコードにおけるNC受付操作ボタンフィールド1332に登録されたNC受付操作ボタンIDを取り出し、この取り出したNC受付操作ボタンIDを収容した第1操作解除通報通信信号をセンサ装置SUへ送信する。センサ装置SUは、この第1操作解除通報通信信号を受信すると、上述したように、前記第1操作解除通信信号をSU通信IF部24によって送信する。これによってNC受付操作ボタン装置NCRBで受け付けたナースコールが解除される。 In process S5, when the communication signal received in process S1 is the first operation reception relay communication signal (NC reception notification) by the SV monitoring processing unit 122, the SV control processing unit 11 performs the nurse call reception process. When the communication signal received in step S1 is the second operation acceptance relay communication signal (NC release notification), the nurse call release processing is executed. More specifically, when the communication signal received in process S1 is the first operation reception relay communication signal (NC reception notification), the SV monitoring processing unit 122 stores the information stored in the notification destination information storage unit 131. 2 Searches the record that registers the NC reception operation button ID accommodated in the first operation reception relay communication signal received in the process S1 in the notification source field 1313 from the notification destination information table 1310b, and the notification destination field in the searched record The terminal ID registered in 1314 is taken out as a report destination, information indicating that the nurse call has been accepted to the terminal devices SP and TA corresponding to the taken out terminal ID, and the first operation acceptance relay received in step S1 The SV communication IF unit 11 transmits an NC report communication signal containing the NC reception operation button ID and the like contained in the communication signal. As a result, the nurse call received by the NC receiving operation button device NCRB is reported. In addition, when the communication signal received in process S1 is the second operation reception relay communication signal (NC release notification), the SV monitoring processing unit 122 stores the correspondence information table 1330 stored in the correspondence information storage unit 133. Then, a record for registering the NC release operation button ID accommodated in the second operation reception relay communication signal received in the process S1 in the NC release operation button field 1331 is searched, and the NC reception operation button field 1332 in the searched record is searched. The registered NC reception operation button ID is extracted, and a first operation release notification communication signal containing this extracted NC reception operation button ID is transmitted to the sensor device SU. When receiving the first operation release notification communication signal, the sensor device SU transmits the first operation release communication signal by the SU communication IF unit 24 as described above. As a result, the nurse call received by the NC reception operation button device NCRB is released.
 そして、処理S5の次に、SV制御処理部11は、SV監視処理部122によって、処理S1で受信した通信信号が第1操作受付中継通信信号である場合(NC受付通報)には、この受信した第1操作受付中継通信信号に関するレコードを対応関係情報テーブル1330に作成し、この受信した第1操作受付中継通信信号に関するタイマーをセットし、処理S1で受信した通信信号が第2操作受付中継通信信号である場合(NC解除通報)には、この受信した第2操作受付中継通信信号に関するレコードを対応関係情報テーブル1330に作成し、この受信した第2操作受付中継通信信号に関するタイマーをセットし、処理を処理S1に戻す(S6)。より具体的には、SV監視処理部122は、処理S1で受信した通信信号が第1操作受付中継通信信号である場合(NC受付通報)には、前記所定の第1時間を計時するために、この受信した第1操作受付中継通信信号に対する新たなタイマーをSV制御処理部12に機能的に形成してリスタートし、対応関係情報テーブル1330に新たなレコードを作成し、この新たなレコードにおける操作受付フィールド1321に、前記受信した第1操作受付中継通信信号に収容されたNC受付操作ボタンIDを登録し、前記新たなレコードにおける受信時刻フィールド1322に、前記受信した第1操作受付中継通信信号の受信時刻を登録し、前記新たなレコードにおけるタイマー状況フィールド1323に、フラグ「0」を登録する。また、SV監視処理部122は、処理S1で受信した通信信号が第2操作受付中継通信信号である場合(NC解除通報)には、前記所定の第2時間を計時するために、この受信した第2操作受付中継通信信号に対する新たなタイマーをSV制御処理部12に機能的に形成してリスタートし、対応関係情報テーブル1330に新たなレコードを作成し、この新たなレコードにおける操作受付フィールド1321に、前記受信した第2操作受付中継通信信号に収容されたNC解除操作ボタンIDを登録し、前記新たなレコードにおける受信時刻フィールド1322に、前記受信した第2操作受付中継通信信号の受信時刻を登録し、前記新たなレコードにおけるタイマー状況フィールド1323に、フラグ「0」を登録する。 Then, after the process S5, the SV control processing unit 11 causes the SV monitoring processing unit 122 to receive this reception when the communication signal received in the process S1 is the first operation reception relay communication signal (NC reception notification). A record related to the first operation acceptance relay communication signal is created in the correspondence information table 1330, a timer relating to the received first operation acceptance relay communication signal is set, and the communication signal received in step S1 is the second operation acceptance relay communication. If it is a signal (NC release notification), a record relating to the received second operation acceptance relay communication signal is created in the correspondence information table 1330, a timer relating to the received second operation acceptance relay communication signal is set, The process returns to process S1 (S6). More specifically, the SV monitoring processing unit 122 counts the predetermined first time when the communication signal received in step S1 is the first operation reception relay communication signal (NC reception notification). Then, a new timer for the received first operation acceptance relay communication signal is functionally formed in the SV control processing unit 12 and restarted, and a new record is created in the correspondence information table 1330. An NC reception operation button ID accommodated in the received first operation reception relay communication signal is registered in the operation reception field 1321, and the received first operation reception relay communication signal is received in the reception time field 1322 in the new record. And the flag “0” is registered in the timer status field 1323 in the new record. In addition, when the communication signal received in the process S1 is the second operation acceptance relay communication signal (NC release notification), the SV monitoring processing unit 122 receives the received second signal to measure the predetermined second time. A new timer for the second operation reception relay communication signal is functionally formed in the SV control processing unit 12 and restarted, a new record is created in the correspondence information table 1330, and the operation reception field 1321 in this new record is created. The NC release operation button ID accommodated in the received second operation acceptance relay communication signal is registered, and the reception time of the received second operation acceptance relay communication signal is set in the reception time field 1322 in the new record. The flag “0” is registered in the timer status field 1323 in the new record.
 なお、この処理S6で機能的に形成されたタイマーが前記所定の第1時間を計時してタイムアップすると、SV監視処理部122は、このタイマーに対応するレコードのタイマー状況フィールド1323にフラグ「1」を登録し、そして、前記処理S6で機能的に形成されたタイマーが前記所定の第2時間を計時してタイムアップすると、SV監視処理部122は、このタイマーに対応するレコードのタイマー状況フィールド1323にフラグ「1」を登録する。 When the timer functionally formed in the process S6 times out the predetermined first time, the SV monitoring processing unit 122 sets the flag “1” in the timer status field 1323 of the record corresponding to the timer. When the timer functionally formed in the process S6 times out the predetermined second time, the SV monitoring processor 122 records the timer status field of the record corresponding to the timer. The flag “1” is registered in 1323.
 一方、処理S7では、SV制御処理部11は、SV監視処理部122によって、処理S1で受信した通信信号が第1操作受付中継通信信号である場合(NC受付通報)には、ナースコール受付処理を実行せずに、処理S1で受信した第1操作受付中継通信信号を廃棄し、処理を処理S1に戻し、処理S1で受信した通信信号が第2操作受付中継通信信号である場合(NC解除通報)には、ナースコール解除処理を実行せずに、処理S1で受信した第2操作受付中継通信信号を廃棄し、処理を処理S1に戻す。 On the other hand, in the process S7, the SV control processing unit 11 performs the nurse call reception process when the communication signal received in the process S1 by the SV monitoring processing unit 122 is the first operation reception relay communication signal (NC reception notification). If the first operation acceptance relay communication signal received in process S1 is discarded without executing the process, the process returns to process S1, and the communication signal received in process S1 is the second operation acceptance relay communication signal (NC release) For notification, the nurse call release process is not executed, but the second operation acceptance relay communication signal received in process S1 is discarded, and the process returns to process S1.
 以上説明したように、本実施形態における被監視者監視システムMS、中央処理装置の一例である管理サーバ装置SVおよびこれに実装された方法は、SV監視処理部122によって、複数の第1操作受付中継通信信号の中に同一のNC受付操作ボタンIDを収容する複数の第1操作受付中継通信信号が存在する場合、この中で最初に受信した第1操作受付中継通信信号に対しナースコール受付処理を実行し、残余の第1操作受付中継通信信号に対し前記ナースコール受付処理を実行せず、複数の第2操作受付中継通信信号の中に同一のNC解除受付ボタンIDを収容する複数の第2操作受付中継通信信号が存在する場合、この中で最初に受信した第2操作受付中継通信信号に対しナースコール解除処理を実行し、残余の第2操作受付中継通信信号に対し前記ナースコール解除処理を実行しない。したがって、上記被監視者監視システムMS、管理サーバ装置SVおよびこれに実装された方法は、重複した不要な第1操作受付中継通信信号をキャンセルするので、管理サーバ装置SVとNC受付操作ボタン装置NCRBとの間における通信回線に無線を含む場合でも、NC受付操作ボタン装置NCRVで受け付けた1回の操作に対し重複した処理を低減でき、また、重複した不要な第2操作受付中継通信信号をキャンセルするので、管理サーバ装置SVとNC解除操作ボタン装置NCCBとの間における通信回線に無線を含む場合でも、NC解除操作ボタン装置NCCBで受け付けた1回の操作に対し重複した処理を低減できる。 As described above, the monitored server monitoring system MS, the management server device SV, which is an example of the central processing unit, and the method implemented therein are received by the SV monitoring processing unit 122 by a plurality of first operation receptions. When there are a plurality of first operation reception relay communication signals accommodating the same NC reception operation button ID in the relay communication signal, a nurse call reception process is performed on the first operation reception relay communication signal received first among them. And the nurse call reception process is not executed for the remaining first operation reception relay communication signals, and a plurality of second operation reception relay IDs that contain the same NC release reception button ID in a plurality of second operation reception relay communication signals. If there is a two-operation acceptance relay communication signal, the nurse call release processing is executed for the second operation acceptance relay communication signal received first, and the remaining second operation acceptance relay is performed. Do not run the nurse call releasing process to Shin signal. Therefore, since the monitored person monitoring system MS, the management server device SV, and the method implemented therein cancel the redundant unnecessary first operation reception relay communication signal, the management server device SV and the NC reception operation button device NCRB Even if the communication line between the two includes wireless, it is possible to reduce duplicate processing for one operation accepted by the NC acceptance operation button device NCRV, and cancel duplicate unnecessary second operation acceptance relay communication signals. Therefore, even when the communication line between the management server device SV and the NC release operation button device NCCB includes radio, it is possible to reduce the duplicate processing for one operation accepted by the NC release operation button device NCCB.
 また、上記被監視者監視システムMS、管理サーバ装置SVおよびこれに実装された方法は、上記キャンセルされる重複した不要な通信信号(第1操作受付中継通信信号や第2操作受付中継通信信号)は、最初の通信信号の受信時刻から所定の時間(第1時間や第2時間)内に受信された通信信号であるので、前記重複した不要な通信信号のキャンセルを前記所定の時間で自動的にリセットでき、新たな所定の操作の通報を受信できるようになる。 In addition, the monitored person monitoring system MS, the management server device SV, and the method implemented in the monitoring person monitoring system MS, the duplicated unnecessary communication signal (first operation reception relay communication signal and second operation reception relay communication signal) to be canceled Is a communication signal received within a predetermined time (first time or second time) from the reception time of the first communication signal, so that the cancellation of the redundant unnecessary communication signal is automatically performed at the predetermined time. So that a notification of a new predetermined operation can be received.
 そして、被監視者監視システムMSの被監視者Obが看護、介護および介助等を必要としている者である場合、ナースコールの通信は、重要であり、より確実でより適切な通信が求められる。したがって、本実施形態における被監視者監視システムMS、管理サーバ装置SVおよびこれに実装された方法は、このような看護、介護および介助等を必要としている者を被監視者Obとしている場合に好適で効果的である。 And, when the monitored person Ob of the monitored person monitoring system MS is a person who needs nursing, care, assistance, etc., the communication of the nurse call is important, and more reliable and more appropriate communication is required. Therefore, the monitored person monitoring system MS, the management server apparatus SV, and the method implemented therein are suitable when the person who needs such nursing, care, assistance, etc. is the monitored person Ob. It is effective.
