Abstract

<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a device capable of securely informing a nurse of the abnormality of a respirator when the nurse near the respirator fails to hear the alarm. <P>SOLUTION: The system comprises a means for connecting an abnormal motion signal detected by the respirator to a corridor lamp via a nurse-call portable unit, a means for the corridor lamp to transmit the information to a nurse-call base unit when receives the abnormal motion signal of the respirator, and a means for a PHS in association with the nurse-call base unit and a nurse-call controller to ring a call when receives the abnormal motion signal of the respirator and to output the display showing the room number and the bed number, the name of the patient and the abnormality of the respirator. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT

Description

The present invention relates to a nurse call device that notifies an abnormality.

As is well known, nurse call devices are mainly installed in hospitals and welfare care facilities for talking with nurses (caregivers at welfare care facilities) and patients. In this nurse call device, a nurse call cordless handset used by a patient for calling is provided in each bed, and a nurse call master phone is installed in the nurse station so that a call can be made between them. (See Patent Document 1)
Japanese Patent No. 2887552

When a ventilator does not operate normally due to abnormal operation of the device or a patient clogging the throat, the ventilator itself emits an alarm sound to call attention. However, the nurse is not always near the ventilator, and when the alarm sound is missed, the treatment may be delayed. The present invention provides a problem of reliably informing a nurse even if a nurse near a ventilator hears an alarm sound.

Means for connecting the abnormal operation signal detected by the ventilator to the corridor lamp via the nurse call slave unit, and means for transmitting the information to the nurse call master unit when the corridor lamp receives the abnormal operation signal of the ventilator When the PHS linked to the nurse call master unit and the nurse call control device receives an abnormal operation signal of the ventilator, it rings a ringing tone and outputs a display informing the room number bed number, patient name, and ventilator abnormality Provide means to do.

When the ventilator generates an alarm sound due to an abnormal operation, even if the nurse in charge misses the alarm sound, it can prevent the response from being delayed by notifying many nurses of the alarm by calling the nurse call.

Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
FIG. 1 shows the configuration of the entire nurse call device. A nurse call master unit (1), a nurse call control unit (2), and a cordless main unit (3) are installed in the nurse center, a corridor lamp (5) is installed near the entrance of each hospital room, and communication lines (4 ) Is connected to the nurse call controller (2).

There is a nurse call handset (6) on the bed wall of each hospital room, and a hand push button (7) and ventilator (8) used by the patient to call the nurse call are connected to the nurse call handset (6). is doing.
Although not shown in the figure, the hand-type slave unit is a slave unit having a function of making a call in addition to the call button.

The cordless main device (3) is connected to a radio (9) installed in the corridor of each hospital room, and further connected to a PHS (Personal Handyphone System) (10) by radio.

When the ventilator (8) detects a device malfunction or a condition where the patient is clogging the throat and not working properly,
An alarm sound is generated, but the abnormal signal is taken out and connected to the nurse call slave (6).

The abnormal signal of the ventilator (8) is input to the corridor lamp (5) via the nurse call slave (6). When the corridor lamp (5) detects the abnormal signal, the abnormal signal is transmitted via the communication line (4). The information is sent to the nurse call controller (2).

When the nurse call controller (2) receives the abnormal signal of the ventilator (8), it adds the room number, bed number and patient information and sends them to the nurse call master (1) and the PHS (10).

In the nurse call master (1) and the PHS (10), a ringing tone is sounded to inform the nurse of the abnormality of the ventilator. When the nurse responds to the call with the nurse call master (1) or the PHS (10), the room number, bed number, patient information, and abnormality of the ventilator are displayed on each display unit.

Claims (2)

When a plurality of nurse call slave units are connected to a nurse call master unit via a plurality of corridor lights and a nurse call is called from the nurse call slave unit, the nurse call master unit is called to In the nurse call device capable of talking between the means, the corridor lamp that receives the abnormal operation signal from the ventilator and the corridor lamp that has detected the abnormal operation signal calls the nurse call master unit to perform artificial respiration. A nurse call device comprising means for notifying an abnormal operation of the device. A PHS (Personal Handyphone System) connected via a radio to a cordless main unit linked to a nurse call control device that controls the nurse call master unit with an abnormal operation signal from the ventilator A nurse call device characterized by notification.
