Description

INPATIENT MONITORING AND FOLLOW-UP SYSTEM AND METHOD
TECHNICAL AREA
The invention relates to the construction of monitoring appropriate for the use of hospitals, intensive care units, bed-dependent patients, or people in need of care, as well as institutions serving these people or patients.
THE KNOWN STATE OF THE TECHNIQUE
Intensive care is a care and treatment unit that provides patients who need to be under constant supervision with the ability to instantly apply any medical assistance. The departments where patients who need to be constantly under the supervision of physicians and nurses are hospitalized in hospitals are also called intensive care units.
It is a unit that provides support for the functions of the body that have been disrupted due to the temporary insufficiency of one or more organs until the main cause disappears, and covers activities aimed at ensuring the patient's survival in this process. It is a special unit where there are doctors and nurses who use all kinds of devices and technologies, especially artificial respiration devices, and whose knowledge and abilities are appropriate for this.
The Intensive Care unit has a multi-bed capacity, as well as equipped with the latest technological devices, provides uninterrupted medical service 24 hours a day under the supervision of a specialist staff. The patients are under 24-hour follow-up and their care and treatment are carried out by experienced intensive care physicians, nurses and auxiliary personnel.
No relatives of the patient are taken in for patient health in intensive care units. The reason for this is to prevent the risk of Infection of the patient's relatives and patients.
The intensive care unit is used for; Sudden cardiac and respiratory stops, Head and brain injuries, Spinal cord injuries, General physical traumas, Patients with all kinds of shocks, Acute respiratory failure, (Lung trauma, pulmonary edema), Severe metabolic disorders and Acid-Base imbalances, Diseases of the nervous system (Cerebral hemorrhage, etc.), Muscle diseases (Myasthenia gravis, ALS, etc.), Liquid electrolyte disorders, all kinds of poisonings, After a large and long-lasting operation, Pregnancy poisonings, Tetanus ect. The patient's full-body requirements are supported by the intensive care and intensive team.
Respiration: Oxygen support is provided to patients with adequate self-breathing with an oxygen mask. Patients whose breathing is not enough are also connected to the respirator. The patient remains connected to the machine until his breathing is enough.
Nutrition: Most of our patients cannot be fed by mouth. A tube (nasogastric probe) is inserted through their nose and they are fed with it by giving special enriched foods. Patients who cannot be fed in this way are fed by giving serum intravenously.
Hygiene (Cleaning): General body cleaning of the patient is carried out by nurses and auxiliary personnel. Patients are given a body bath (wiping), mouth, eye and face treatments, hair baths, shaving of male patients 2 times a day.
Toilet: The amount of urine is important for assessing the condition of patients. Therefore, all patients should have a urinary probe installed. If it is a stool, it is removed with a slide or a patient's diaper.
Information about the patient's condition, pre-diagnosis, planned procedures and possible consequences is provided to the patient's relatives who have been taken to the intensive care unit by the doctor in charge at that time.
If an expected or unexpected negative situation develops during the patient's followup, information is provided by contacting the phone numbers left by the patient's relatives. When the patient will be transferred to the service, the patient's relatives will be contacted and informed.
If the patient is referred to another department / branch or another hospital, the patient's relatives will be informed. Routine patient visits should not be carried out in order to protect patients hospitalized in intensive care from infection.
The desire of patients hospitalized in the intensive care unit to be seen by their families and the desire to receive information is a problem in the flow order of the hospital. The patient's relatives want to receive information, the doctor, nurse and other hospital staff perform the current procedure and do not want to leave the patient's relatives near the patient due to the risk of infection. In addition, some patients want to gain morale and motivation by seeing their relatives.
These situations pose a problem in the intensive care system both from the point of view of the patient's relatives and the hospital management.
DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
The invention relates to the construction of monitoring appropriate for the use of hospitals, intensive care units, bed-dependent patients or people in need of care, as well as institutions serving these people or patients.
The subject of the invention describes an intensive care monitoring method and a method that can be used in intensive care, elderly care homes, infant intensive care units, for anyone in need of care.
The subject of the invention is to introduce faster, more practical monitoring of doctors working in hospitals, patients and on-duty nurses and, if necessary, relatives of patients in the intensive care monitoring method.
Another purpose of the invention is to safely monitor infants staying in infant intensive care by both doctors and their parents using the intensive care monitoring method.
Another purpose of the invention is to ensure that people in need of care are monitored both by the home health unit and by relatives of the patient at a distance, and if necessary, it is necessary to quickly direct the people who will intervene to the appropriate place.
Another purpose of the invention is to demonstrate a structure that allows patients who need to be monitored continuously to be monitored by doctors and nurses, and to respond to the patient more quickly in the event of an abnormality.

Network: 1 Gbps Ethernet
It creates a reliable encrypted monitoring connection for each TCP-IP compliant camera (1 ) and this monitoring is set up for the patient receiving bed (6) service via linked Web service interface (4).
It is the software that sets up the web service interface (4) and patient beds (6) and their association with the camera in accordance with the TCP-IP protocol, additional security measures, user definitions, monitoring time. The web service interface (4) can be used in every service will be broadcast within the hospital. Here, the Web service interface (4) should be defined in the administration panel of the service where the program is located in whichever service the user is in. In this way, each service will be able to see the camera in accordance with the TCP-IP protocol located in its unit and perform operations related to these TCP-IP cameras. The web service interface (4) can activate or decommission camera (1 ) broadcasts in accordance with all TCP-IP protocols available on the service. It can change the information about how many minutes of live broadcast viewing time is between the watch time sections for each camera (1 ) that is compatible with the TCP-IP protocol. It can show the user the information of a bed that is being watched live. Access information (user name, password, phone) belonging to a patient bed (5) located in the service can be changed using the web service interfaced). A live broadcast monitoring contract for a new user is printed on the web service interface^), and the user signs the contract with a wet signature. With the web service interface (4), the adjustments of the web service and the adjustments necessary for sending SMS can be made.
The main server (3) is the unit that decides whether to start the live broadcast by checking the decency of the information coming from the user's web interface (4). The user enters the personal information of the patient who receives bed service with the user login information provided to him by the hospital through the web interface^) and sends this information to the main server (3). The main server (3) checks whether the decency of incoming user information is the same as the information assigned by the web service interface (4). It gives a warning to the user if there is an error in the user information. The days when each TCP-IP camera can be monitored, at what time during the day it can be monitored, and whether it has permission to be monitored are set by the web service interface (4). If the day and time interval of the connection is correct, the user web service interface (4) sends the camera monitoring address with the message that the camera can be viewed in accordance with the TCP-IP protocol, allowing the user to watch the patient live. When the monitoring starts, the user web service interface (4) receives a message that the monitoring has started. This message contains WAN and LAN IP addresses and Mac address information of the computer where the live broadcast is watched. A broadcast watch line is created for the user by recording this information. In this way, information about which user is watching which camera (1 ) is suitable for which TCP-IP protocol at which time is recorded in the database.
The user who enters the web service interface (4) must first read and approve the live broadcast monitoring contract created jointly by the hospital management and the software company and declare that he accepts all the clauses in the contract. The user logs in with his (sms) message information with the patient information and the link given on the hospital web page. This information is sent to the main server (3). The user information to be entered here is determined by the web service interface (4). In addition, the hospital management will specify which information about the inpatient (patient's name, surname, father's name, date of birth, identification number, telephone number, etc.) will be requested. If the SMS confirmation system is activated by the web service interface (4), the random password generated by the system is sent to the user's defined mobile phone. Enters the information received on the mobile phone into the SMS confirmation code field on the screen and clicks the send button. The information reaching the web service is checked. If the information is correct and the user has the right to monitor the patient, the live broadcast monitoring stream is started.
If there is an error in the information or if there is an error in the tracking permissions or times, the user is informed. The user's remaining monitoring time, last connected session information is displayed on this screen. As soon as the monitoring broadcast stream starts, the user’s web service interface (4) informs the main server (3) of the WAN and Lan IP address and Mac address of the computer to which the user is connected, along with the message that the camera in accordance with the dec TCP- IP) protocol (1 ) has started monitoring. When the user's viewing period expires, the web interface will automatically end the live broadcast and notify the main server (3) that the live broadcast has been terminated.
