Apparatus and method for reinspecting prescription drug

Abstract

Disclosed are an apparatus and a method for reinspecting the defect state of a defective drug pack after the defect state of an individually packaged drug has been inspected by analyzing the image of the drug. The apparatus for reinspecting a prescription drug includes a drug pack information transceiving part to receive transmitted prescription information and primary inspection data according to a defect state of the prescription drug; a drug reinspection controlling part connected to the drug pack information transceiving part to control a procedure of reinspecting a defect state of a drug pack which has been primarily determined as a defective drug pack; an image processing part connected to the drug reinspection controlling part to photograph the drug pack, which has been primarily determined as the defective drug pack, and to process an image of the drug pack; and a defect analyzing part connected to the drug reinspection controlling part to determine a defect state of a drug by analyzing the drug contained in the image of the drug pack provided from the image processing part.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a system and method for re-inspecting whether a prescription drug is defective or not, and more particularly relates to a method for re-inspecting a defective drug pack to confirm whether there is a defect after analyzing images of individually packaged drugs to detect whether there is a defect or not systems and methods. Background technique [0002] In general, hospitals and pharmacies package prescription medicines separately according to the dosage per serving, and provide the medicines packaged according to the period or times of taking to patients. [0003] As described above, after the prescription process is completed, the medicines are sealed in an individually packaged manner, and therefore, it is difficult to confirm whether or not it is consistent with the prescription information of the prescription. [0004] In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the medicine wrapping paper is made of a transpare...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

However, even if there are accurate medicines that are consistent with the prescription information, the determination is mostly based on the location of the medicines, so the reliability of the first defect determination is reduced, and it is necessary to perform only the prescription medicine packs that are determined to be defective. retest

[0008] For the re-inspection of the drug packs that have passed the first defect determination, the operator needs to inspect the drug packs one by one, and at this time, it is necessary to identify the drug packs that are judged to be defective in multiple drug pack bundles. It takes a long time and the process of delivering the pack after re-prescribing is also non-automated
