Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a wristband, in particular to a multifunctional wristband for hospitalized patients. Background Art

[0002] The operation of modern hospitals emphasizes "safety and efficiency", but there are still many safety hazards and redundant affairs, such as:

[0003] Most hospitals have installed bedside bells for inpatients. When patients have questions or feel unwell, they can press the bell and a visual and audio reminder of their bed will appear on the nurse station and ward corridor sign, alerting medical staff to check on the bedside. However, if patients leave their bed (for example, to go to the bathroom, eat, take a walk, or leave the hospital without permission), become seriously unwell, and experience limited mobility, medical staff will not be notified in a timely manner. For some sudden emergencies, such as myocardial infarction and pulmonary embolism, not being able to receive timely rescue means a greatly reduced chance of survival.

[0004] Many examinations during hospitalization require appointments. After the appointment time is provided, the medical staff must inform the patient verbally and in writing, and explain the precautions before the examination. However, middle-aged and elderly people account for a large proportion of hospitalized patients. This group, especially elderly patients, often cannot clarify and remember the complicated schedules and precautions. Written notices are also commonly lost, and the elderly patients' cultural level and vision loss often affect their reading of written notices. These problems have caused many patients to delay examinations due to unclear memory or insufficient preparation, delaying the diagnosis and treatment of the disease. At the same time, some patients repeatedly ask medical staff because they cannot remember the examination time and precautions, which consumes a considerable amount of clinical work time of medical staff.

[0005] For patients with mild symptoms, they often lack reasonable and appropriate leisure and entertainment during hospitalization; in addition, for patient groups who need to acquire health knowledge, such as patients with chronic diseases such as hypertension, diabetes, and uremia, they often lack systematic and comprehensive health knowledge education.

[0006] All hospitals as public places have implemented a comprehensive smoking ban. However, some long-term smoking patients do not comply with the hospital regulations and smoke privately, endangering their own health and the health of people around them, and there is also a potential fire hazard. Summary of the Invention

[0007] In order to solve the problem of inconvenient communication between hospitalized patients and medical staff in the above-mentioned prior art, the present invention provides a multifunctional inpatient wristband, comprising a band, a band connector, an electronic display screen, a camera arranged above the electronic display screen, and a speaker arranged on the side, and further comprising a central processing unit, an NFC module, a power module, a GPS module, a storage module, a display module, a remote control module, a voice transmission module, a communication module, a smoke sensing module, an electrocardiogram sensor, a pressing device, a three-axis acceleration sensor, and a vibration device;

[0008] The power module transmits power to the central processing unit, storage module, communication module, speaker, voice transmission module, GPS module, smoke sensor module, NFC module, display module, vibration device, ECG sensor, pressure device, three-axis acceleration sensor, remote control module and wireless connection components;

[0009] The remote control module is connected to the storage module, the communication module, the speaker, the voice transmission module, the GPS module, the smoke sensing module, the pressing device, and the vibration device respectively; the remote control module exchanges data with the storage module, processes information received by the communication module, the voice transmission module, the GPS module, the pressing device, the streaming media module, and the smoke sensing module, and transmits the processed signal to the display module, the communication module, the speaker, and the vibration device;

[0010] The communication module is connected to the SIM card socket;

[0011] The storage module is used to record and store the patient's basic information, QR code, location information, treatment information and other information. After the storage module is connected to the wireless connection component, it can wirelessly transmit the stored information to the remote control system;

[0012] The three-axis accelerometer can sense the three-dimensional acceleration of human body movement, such as walking, so as to record the patient's exercise time and exercise mileage;

[0013] When the pressing device senses that the patient is pressing the screen, it will automatically send a message to the medical staff.

[0014] Furthermore, the charging mechanism has two charging modes: magnetic charging and USB port charging.

[0015] Furthermore, the ring belt joints are connected by means of magnetism or snap fastening.

[0016] In summary, the present invention has the following beneficial effects compared to the prior art:

[0017] (1) The outer surface of the wristband is not provided with any buttons, and the screen is not a touch screen, in order to prevent hospitalized patients from changing the volume or other functions of the wristband by changing the settings or other methods, causing the wristband to fail to achieve its intended effect. Correspondingly, the wristband is provided with a wireless connection component connected to the remote control module. Medical staff can pair and connect the wireless connection component through the remote control device and operate the remote control device to set the patient's wristband; if the patient or his / her family has any requirements for the wristband settings, they can contact the medical staff to make third-party changes to the settings.

[0018] (2) NFC module, also known as the sensing module. When an inpatient enters or leaves the hospital gate, the NFC module sends a prompt message to the central processing unit under the influence of the magnetic field of the access control system, so as to control the wristband to automatically turn on the camera and wireless connection components. When medical staff need to monitor the patient's condition after leaving the hospital, they can control their own connection devices to connect to the wristband's camera, thereby achieving the purpose of real-time monitoring of the patient. And the voice is transmitted through the speaker to remind the patient to return to the hospital for treatment.

[0019] In addition, the camera connected to the NFC module can automatically display the patient's QR code on the electronic display screen when the patient's face is close to the bracelet. At this time, the patient's personal information can be obtained by scanning the QR code with a scanning device, which makes it easier for patients to enter and exit the hospital and make purchases in the hospital, and it is also easier for medical staff to record the patient's treatment status.

[0020] (3) When the pressing device senses that the patient is pressing the screen, it will automatically send a message to the medical staff to remind them that the patient needs help. In addition, when the patient falls, the patient will press the bracelet, thereby achieving the purpose of contacting the medical staff in time. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0031] See also Figures 1 to 4As shown, the present invention provides a multifunctional wristband for hospitalized patients. Similar to the prior art, the wristband consists of a band 4, an electronic display screen 1, a camera 2 arranged above the electronic display screen 1, and a speaker 3 arranged on the side. Unlike the prior art, the wristband integrates a central processing unit, an NFC module, a power module, a GPS module, a storage module, a display module, a remote control module, a voice transmission module, a communication module, a smoke sensing module, an electrocardiogram sensor, a three-axis acceleration sensor, a vibration device, and a pressing device. In addition, the outer surface of the wristband is not provided with any buttons, and the screen is not a touch screen to prevent hospitalized patients from changing the volume or other functions of the wristband by changing the settings or other methods, causing the wristband to fail to achieve its intended effect. Correspondingly, the wristband is provided with a wireless connection component connected to the remote control module. Medical staff can pair and connect the wireless connection component through the remote control device and operate the remote control device to set the patient's wristband; if the patient or his family has any needs for the wristband settings, they can contact the medical staff to make third-party changes to the settings.

[0032] The power module transmits power to the central processing unit, storage module, communication module, speaker 3, voice transmission module, GPS module, smoke sensor module, NFC module, display module, vibration device, electrocardiogram sensor, three-axis acceleration sensor, pressing device, remote control module and wireless connection components.

[0033] The remote control module is connected to the storage module, communication module, speaker 3, voice transmission module, GPS module, smoke sensing module, pressing device, and vibration device respectively; the remote control module interacts with the storage module for data, processes the information received by the communication module, voice transmission module, GPS module, streaming media module, pressing device, and smoke sensing module, and transmits the processed signal to the display module, communication module, speaker 3, and vibration device.

[0034] The communication module is connected to the SIM card socket; the communication module binds the bracelet to the communication access number, uses the operator's cellular network to wirelessly access the Internet of Things connection management platform, realizes the full life cycle management of the bracelet through the Internet of Things connection management platform, and connects the hospital intranet inpatient system to the Internet of Things connection management platform through the MSTP dedicated line to ensure the security and stability of data transmission; thereby achieving: 1. Connecting with the hospital intranet inpatient system, the hospital intranet inpatient system pushes information to the Internet of Things connection management platform, and the platform transmits the information to the inpatient bracelet through PUSHAPI or SMS, so that the content information of the specific patient's examination appointment and precautions is automatically synchronized with the bracelet, and the bracelet LCD screen displays the information and provides voice broadcast reminders; 2. The bracelet is connected to the nurse station call terminal through the Internet of Things connection management platform to make real-time directional calls and conversations; 3. The discharge information monitored by GPS or the smoke information detected by the smoke sensor module is pushed to the nurse station call terminal.

[0035] The GPS module locates the patient through the cellular network connection of the communication module. In the event of unauthorized discharge from the hospital, the bracelet alerts the patient through the vibration device and pushes the information to the nurse station terminal.

[0036] The storage module is used to record and store basic patient information, QR codes, location information, treatment information, and other data. After the storage module is connected to the wireless connection component, it can wirelessly transmit the stored information to the remote control system.

[0037] The smoke sensing module senses the smoke signal and warns the patient through the wristband vibration device when the patient is not smoking in the designated smoking area, and sends information to the nurse station terminal through the communication module cellular network connection.

[0038] The NFC module, also known as the sensing module, sends a prompt to the central processing unit under the influence of the access control system's magnetic field when an inpatient enters or leaves the hospital. This prompts the wristband to automatically activate camera 2 and the wireless connection component. When medical staff need to monitor the patient's condition after leaving the hospital, they can connect their own connected device to the wristband's camera 2, thereby achieving real-time monitoring of the patient. Voice notifications are also transmitted through speaker 3, prompting the patient to return to the hospital for treatment.

[0039] In addition, the camera 2 connected to the NFC module can automatically display the patient's QR code on the electronic display screen 1 when the patient's face is close to the bracelet. At this time, the patient's personal information can be obtained by scanning the QR code with a scanning device, which makes it easier for patients to enter and exit the hospital and make purchases in the hospital, and it is also convenient for medical staff to record the patient's treatment status.

[0040] The three-axis accelerometer can sense the three-dimensional acceleration of human body movement, such as walking, and thus record the patient's exercise time and mileage.

[0041] When the pressing device senses that the patient is pressing the screen, it will automatically send a message to the medical staff to remind them that the patient needs help. In addition, when the patient falls, the patient will press the bracelet, thereby achieving the purpose of contacting medical staff in time.

[0042] As a preferred option, Figure 2 and Figure 3 The charging mechanism shown has two charging modes: charging via a magnetic charging assembly 6 and charging via a USB interface 7 .

[0043] As a preferred embodiment, the joints of the ring belt 4 are connected by magnetism or snap fastening.

[0044] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Those skilled in the art will readily appreciate that various modifications and variations of the present invention are possible. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention shall be included within the scope of protection of the present invention.
