  ADVANTAGE OF THE INVENTION According to this invention, the biometric information monitor apparatus which can input attribute information in the procedure simplified more can be provided.

  Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

  The biological information monitor system of FIG. 1 includes a bedside monitor device 100 that is placed near a patient in a hospital room, an operating room, or an intensive care unit, and a central monitor device that is placed away from the patient (for example, a nurse station). 120. The bedside monitor device 100 includes a bedside monitor device main body 101, a multiport module 102, a bedside monitor display unit 103, a telemeter transmitter 104, and a biological information sensor 105. The central monitor device 120 includes a central monitor device main body 121, a telemeter receiver 122, and a central monitor display unit 123. In general, the biological information monitoring system can connect a plurality of bedside monitor devices 100 to a single central monitor device 120. However, in this embodiment, a single biological information monitor system is provided to simplify the description. Only the bedside monitor device 100 is disclosed.

  The bedside monitor apparatus main body 101 has a signal processing circuit (CPU) and a memory, and the memory stores in advance a program and a database for causing the CPU to execute display control and setting procedures of a setting screen, which will be described in detail later. Has been. Further, the bedside monitor apparatus main body 101 stores setting items notified from the bedside monitor display unit 103 by an input from a touch panel described later in a memory.

  A multi-port module 102, a bedside monitor display unit 103, and a telemeter transmitter 104 are connected to the bedside monitor apparatus main body 101 via cables. The bedside monitor apparatus main body 101 receives the biological information data acquired from the multiport module 102 and outputs it to the bedside monitor display unit 103 and the telemeter transmitter 104. Further, the bedside monitor apparatus main body 101 compares the measured value data in the transferred biological information data with a preset threshold value, analyzes the waveform data in the transferred biological information data, and analyzes them. The alarm data corresponding to the result is generated and output to the bedside monitor display unit 103 and the telemeter transmitter 104 together with the biological information. The comparison result and the analysis result are stored in a memory so as to be readable. In addition, it is preferable that information on how to deal with various abnormalities and the like is stored in advance in the memory in preparation for the case where the comparison result or the analysis result exhibits any abnormality.

  The telemeter transmitter 104 wirelessly transmits the biological information data and alarm data input from the bedside monitor apparatus main body 101 to the central monitor apparatus 120. The biometric information data and the alarm data transmitted by radio are received by the central monitor apparatus main body 121 via the telemeter receiver 122 and displayed on the central monitor display unit 123. The alarm data may be output as a sound from a speaker built in the central monitor display unit 123.

  The bedside monitor display unit 103 as a display unit has a touch panel function as a user interface, and when the medical staff touches the screen, the setting items associated with the contact position on the screen are notified to the bedside monitor apparatus main body 101. The The setting procedure and the configuration of the setting screen will be described in detail later.

  The bedside monitor display unit 103 displays biological information data and alarm data input from the bedside monitor apparatus main body 101 on a screen. The alarm data may be output as sound from a speaker built in the bedside monitor display unit 103.

  A biological information sensor 105 is connected to the multiport module 102. The biological information sensor 105 includes at least one of, for example, a respiration sensor that detects patient respiration, an electrocardiogram sensor, a blood pressure sensor, and a body temperature sensor. In FIG. 1, an electrocardiogram sensor is illustrated as the biological information sensor 105.

  The multi-port module 102 performs digital processing that represents various types of biological information by performing signal processing including amplification and A / D conversion (analog / digital conversion) on an analog signal that represents a value detected by the biological information sensor. Data (biological information data) is generated. Specifically, electrocardiogram data (including electrocardiogram waveform data) and heart rate data (including heart rate measurement value data) are obtained from the detection signal of the electrocardiogram sensor. From the detection signal of the respiration sensor, respiration rate data (including respiration waveform data and respiration rate measurement value data) and respiration pressure data are obtained. The multiport module 102 transfers these biological information data to the bedside monitor apparatus main body 101.

  Next, the setting procedure and the configuration of the setting screen will be described.

[Settings when entering and exiting]
First, when the user touches the “menu” icon 201 on the initial screen of FIG. 2, the menu screen shown in FIG. 3 is displayed on the bedside monitor display unit 103. When the “entry / exit” icon 202 is further touched on this menu screen, an entry / exit setting screen shown in FIG. 4 is displayed.

  On this entry / exit setting screen, the patient name is usually input using a “conversion” icon or a “no conversion” icon after first inputting hiragana with a 50-sound icon. A title is added after the patient name.

  Here, the entry / exit setting screen shown in FIG. 4 is provided with title icons 203 corresponding to titles used in hospitals such as “sama”, “kun”, “chan”, and “baby”. . By doing so, it is possible to easily input the title that has been input using the 50 sound icon and the conversion icon in the past with one touch.

  Each title icon 203 is linked to “patient category”. In other words, since there is a correspondence between the title added after the patient name and the patient category, when one title is selected, the corresponding patient category is automatically set. That is, the CPU of the bedside monitor apparatus main body 101 sets the patient category information corresponding to the selected title input icon in the patient category, which is an attribute relating to the patient, in conjunction with the selection of the title icon 203. Specifically, the patient category is automatically set to “adult” when “sama” is selected, “child” is automatically set for “kun” and “chan”, and “newborn” is automatically set for “baby”. . Since there are many cases where a name is not given to a newborn baby, the name of the baby with the title “baby” is usually used as the name of the newborn.

  Here, the threshold value used when determining whether or not to generate alarm data is different for each “patient category”. For this reason, the threshold value is stored for each “patient category” in the memory of the bedside monitor apparatus main body 101.

  When the patient category is automatically set in conjunction with the input of the title, the CPU of the bedside monitor apparatus main body 101 reads the determination threshold value that matches the set patient category from the memory, and uses this determination threshold value for the determination. . A determination threshold value is prepared for each type of the biological information sensor 105.

[Hospital setting]
When the “setup” icon is touched on the menu screen, a setup menu screen shown in FIG. 5 is displayed. When the “preset” icon 204 is touched on the setup menu screen, a preset menu screen shown in FIG. 6 is displayed. When the “hospital setting” icon 205 is touched on the preset menu screen, the hospital setting screen shown in FIG. 7 is displayed.

  When a “ward selection” icon 206 is touched on this hospital setting screen, a ward selection screen shown in FIG. 8 is displayed. As shown in FIG. 8, the ward selection screen includes an icon for each ward type (a ward type icon). The ward selection screen shown in FIG. 8 shows four icons of “adult ward”, “child ward”, “newborn ward”, and “adult / child ward”.

  Usually, since the biological information monitor system is used semi-fixedly in one ward, the ward setting is performed at the time of setting the biological information monitor system. In addition, when the bedside monitor device 100 is added in the ecological information monitor system, ward setting is performed by the bedside monitor device 100 at that time.

  Here, each ward icon can be linked to a title. That is, since there is a correspondence between the ward type and the title, when one ward type is selected, the corresponding title can be automatically set. Specifically, when the entry / exit setting screen shown in FIG. 4 is displayed after “adult ward” is selected, only the “sama” icon is displayed, and “kun”, “chan”, The “baby” icon is in a state where it cannot be selected (that is, inactive or grayed out). Similarly, when "Children's ward" is selected, only "Kun" and "Chan" are displayed. When "Newborn ward" is selected, only "Baby" is displayed, and "Adult / When “pediatric ward” is selected, “sama”, “kun”, and “chan” are displayed.

  As described above, since there is a correspondence between the title and the patient category, the title candidate is narrowed down when the ward type is selected, and the patient category candidate is automatically narrowed accordingly. Specifically, when “adult ward” is selected, the title is narrowed down to “like” and the patient category is narrowed down to “adult”. Therefore, when “adult ward” is selected, the patient category can be automatically set to “adult”. When the entry / exit setting screen is displayed in this state, only the “adult” icon is displayed for the patient category icon, and other icons cannot be selected. For pediatric wards and newborn wards, candidates are narrowed down to one patient category, so there is no difference from the case of adult wards.

  However, in the case of an adult / pediatric ward, the patient category candidate cannot be narrowed down to one. Therefore, when “Adult / Pediatric Ward” is selected, only the “Newborn” icon cannot be selected, and the “Adult” icon and the “Children” icon are displayed. In this state, only when a title is selected on the entry / exit setting screen, one patient category corresponding to this title is automatically set.

  As described above, according to the present embodiment, the title icon is displayed on the entry / exit setting screen, which is one of the attribute setting screens used for inputting the patient-related attributes, under the control of the CPU of the bedside monitor apparatus main body 101. Is provided.

  In this way, the title that has been conventionally input using the 50-sound icon and the conversion icon can be easily input with one touch, so that the procedure for inputting patient attribute information can be simplified.

  In conjunction with the title setting, patient category information corresponding to the selected title is automatically set in the patient category.

  By doing so, the certainty of patient condition management can be improved. That is, the above-described determination threshold value is different for each patient category. Therefore, an input error in the patient category can lead to a major accident. For example, if the patient is a newborn and the patient category is set to adult, even if the measurement value indicates that the condition is bad for the newborn, the judgment threshold is set for adults, Etc. may not be emitted properly. Incidentally, conventionally, the patient category is often set to “adult” by default, and there are many cases where such a problem is likely to occur.

  However, the patient classification information corresponding to the selected title is automatically set in the patient classification in conjunction with the setting of the title, so that it is possible to prevent an error in inputting the patient classification. For this reason, since an appropriate determination threshold value is set, it is possible to appropriately alert the medical staff by an alarm or the like. That is, it is possible to realize a biological information monitoring apparatus that improves the certainty of patient condition management.

  In addition, on the entry / exit setting screen, only the title icon used in the ward of the type selected on the ward type setting screen is displayed in a selectable state.

  By doing so, it is possible to make it impossible to select a title icon that may not be used depending on the type of ward. As a result, when the entry of the title is linked with the setting of the patient category, an input error of the patient category can be prevented.

  In addition, on the entry / exit setting screen, only the patient category icon corresponding to the patient category information used in the ward of the type selected on the ward type setting screen can be selected from the patient category information as attribute information. Display in state.

  By doing so, it is possible to prevent patient segment input errors.

  In the above description, the patient classification icon, the 50-sound icon used for inputting the patient name, and the honorary icon are stored in one screen (that is, the setting screen when entering and leaving). However, the present invention is not limited to this mode, and the patient name input screen (see FIG. 9) is displayed below the entrance / exit setting screen (see FIG. 9) except for the 50-sound icon and the honorific icon from the entrance / exit setting screen. 10), and a 50 sound icon and a title icon may be displayed on the patient name input screen. In this case, the entry / exit setting screen is provided with a “patient name” icon 207 for switching to the patient name input screen.

  Moreover, the biological information monitoring apparatus of the present invention can be embodied not only as a bedside monitor apparatus but also as a central monitor apparatus.

  In the above description, the aspect in which the patient category information corresponding to the selected title is set in the patient category in conjunction with the selection of the title has been described, but conversely in conjunction with the selection of the patient category. Thus, it is possible to realize an embodiment in which a title corresponding to the selected patient category is automatically input. However, since “kun” and “chan” cannot be specified only by patient classification, it is possible to adopt a mode in which honorifics are automatically input based on judgment based on gender.
