Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of medical consumables management, and particularly relates to a medical consumable recycling device and method based on RFID technology. Background Art

[0002] With the continuous deepening of the management of medical consumables, the requirements for the procurement and use control of hospital consumables are becoming more and more stringent. All kinds of consumables used every day need to be recycled in a timely manner for subsequent unified processing.

[0003] At present, there are many valuable medical devices among medical consumables, and some used medical consumables are infectious. Therefore, more attention needs to be paid to the recycling of medical consumables. In the prior art, registration management is mainly carried out through traditional registration books, and some are managed by manually inputting into a computer. This method has too many human participation factors in the management process, not only the data entry speed is slow, but also it is difficult to ensure the real-time nature of the data, and there are also situations of registration errors and non-registration, resulting in inaccurate data when recycling medical consumables, and the recycled medical consumables are stacked in a mess, with low verification efficiency. In addition, some medical devices are relatively scarce. If they are lost, they cannot be repurchased in the short term, which not only affects the normal development of subsequent medical operations, but also causes greater economic losses, and the loss of infectious medical consumables also poses a great safety hazard to hospital personnel.

[0004] Therefore, we propose a medical consumable recycling device and method based on RFID technology to solve the above problems. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In order to solve the technical problems in the prior art that there are too many human participation factors in the management method of medical consumables, it is difficult to ensure the real-time nature and accuracy of data, the verification efficiency is low, and it is easy to cause the loss of medical consumables, resulting in not only economic losses but also potential safety hazards of hospital personnel being infected, the present invention proposes a medical consumable recycling device and method based on RFID technology.

[0006] The technical solution adopted by the present invention is as follows:

[0007] A medical consumable recycling device based on RFID technology, with an intelligent recycling system built-in, including: a storage warehouse, a recycling warehouse, an RFID tag module, an identification module, and a data server module;

[0008] The storage warehouse is used to store medical consumables to be used;

[0009] The recycling warehouse is used to store medical consumables to be processed;

[0010] The RFID tag module is set on medical consumables and is used to record the product information and location information of medical consumables;

[0011] The identification module includes a reading and writing module. The reading and writing module includes an inbound / outbound reading and writing module and a recycling area reading and writing module. The inbound / outbound reading and writing module and the recycling area reading and writing module are respectively located at the access control points of the storage warehouse and the recycling warehouse, and are both used to obtain the information recorded on the RFID tag module on medical consumables, and push the obtained product information and location information to the data server module;

[0012] The data server module is used to receive the product information and location information pushed by the inbound / outbound identification module and the recycling area identification module, and record them in the server for management personnel to monitor the use and recycling of medical consumables.

[0013] In a further technical solution, a positioning unit is integrated in the RFID tag module. The positioning unit adopts one or more of a GPS module, a Wi-Fi module or a Bluetooth module and is used to position medical consumables.

[0014] In a further technical solution, the reading and writing module further includes an intermediate station reading and writing module. The intermediate station reading and writing module is located at the access control point of the surgical area and is used to obtain the information stored on the RFID tag module on medical consumables, and push the obtained product information and location information to the data server module.

[0015] In a further technical solution, a clock module is further included. The data server module performs data interaction with the clock module through a network. When the data server module receives the product information and location information recorded by the reading and writing module and pushed by the RFID tag module, it obtains the current time information from the clock module and records it in the server.

[0016] In a further technical solution, the identification module further includes a biometric identification unit. Biometric identification units are provided at the access control points of the storage warehouse, the surgical area and the recycling warehouse, and are used to identify the operator's identity information and push the operator's identity information to the data server module.

[0017] In a further technical solution, a verification system is further included. The data server module performs data interaction with the display module through a network. The verification system is used to compare the information pushed by the inbound / outbound reading and writing module and the recycling area reading and writing module to the data server module and generate a verification report.

[0018] In a further technical solution, a user terminal is further included. The verification system interacts with the user terminal through a network, and the user terminal can receive the verification report generated by the verification system.

[0019] In a further technical solution, a display module is also included. The data server module exchanges data with the display module through a network. The display module is used to display the product information, location information, time information and verification report of the medical consumables recorded by the data server module.

[0020] A medical consumables recycling method based on RFID technology comprises the following steps:

[0021] a. When medical consumables are put into storage, an RFID tag module is set on the medical consumables, and the product information and location information of the medical consumables are recorded on the RFID tag module. The information on the RFID tag module is read by the in-and-out reading and writing module. This is the first time to identify and judge it as storage. Then the medical consumables are put into the storage warehouse, and the obtained storage information is pushed to the data server module. At the same time, the current time information is obtained from the clock module and recorded in the server;

[0022] b. When taking medical consumables, the operator authenticates the identity through the biometric identification unit, and reads the RFID tag module on the medical consumables through the in-and-out reading and writing module. This is the second identification, and it is judged as out-of-stock. The out-of-stock information is pushed to the data server module, and the current time information is obtained from the clock module and recorded in the server;

[0023] c. When the medical consumables are used, the information on the RFID tag module is read through the intermediate station reading and writing module, and the obtained intermediate station usage information is pushed to the data server module. At the same time, the current time information is obtained from the clock module and recorded in the server;

[0024] d. After the medical consumables are used up, the information on the RFID tag module is read by the recycling area read-write module. This is the last identification and it is judged as recycling. Then the medical consumables are placed in the recycling warehouse and the obtained recycling information is pushed to the data server module. At the same time, the current time information is obtained from the clock module and recorded in the server;

[0025] e. When it is close to the end of the get off work day, the verification system is running, and the outbound information and recycling information pushed to the data server module by the inbound and outbound reading and writing module and the recycling area reading and writing module are obtained from the data server module and compared, and a verification report is generated and pushed to the user terminal for management personnel to monitor the use and recycling of medical consumables.

[0026] In a further technical solution, step d further includes: after the recycling area reading and writing module reads the information on the RFID tag module, after the data server module receives the information pushed by the recycling area reading and writing module, it associates the read information related to the current usage cycle of the medical consumables. If the medical consumables can be reused, after the recycling and disinfection process is completed, the RFID tag module is read again through the inbound and outbound reading and writing module, and then stored in the warehouse again, and the previous read information is archived.

[0027] In summary, due to the adoption of the above technical solution, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0028] The present invention manages medical consumables by using RFID technology, and the RFID tag module is recognized at the time of warehousing, outbound, use, and recycling. The obtained product information and location information are pushed to the data server module, and the time information is synchronized and recorded in the server. It is also possible to register the use without the need for on-site personnel. Near the end of each day, it will automatically check whether the medical consumables taken out of the storage warehouse have entered the recycling warehouse, and send a verification report to the user terminal of the management personnel for the management and tracking of medical consumables. This can greatly reduce the pressure and workload of medical consumables inventory takers, accurately and efficiently understand the use and recycling of medical consumables, ensure that there is no loss of medical consumables, avoid affecting the normal progress of subsequent medical surgeries, and cause significant economic losses. It also reduces the safety hazards brought to hospital personnel by the loss of infectious medical consumables, which is beneficial for use. For reusable medical consumables, after the recycling and disinfection process is completed, when they are stored in the warehouse again, the relevant information during the previous usage cycle will be archived, which is convenient for the management and tracking of medical consumables. The purpose is to improve the management efficiency and accuracy of consumables in medical facilities or other industries, while reducing management costs and workloads, and reducing the subsequent safety hazards caused by the loss of consumables.

[0033] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0034] This embodiment provides a medical consumable recycling device based on RFID technology, with an intelligent recycling system built-in, including: a storage warehouse, a recycling warehouse, an RFID tag module, an identification module, and a data server module;

[0035] The storage warehouse is used to store medical consumables to be used;

[0036] The recycling warehouse is used to store medical consumables to be processed;

[0037] The RFID tag module is set on the medical consumables and is used to record the product information and location information of the medical consumables;

[0038] The identification module includes a reading and writing module. The reading and writing module includes an in-out warehouse reading and writing module and a recycling area reading and writing module. The in-out warehouse reading and writing module and the recycling area reading and writing module are respectively located at the access control points of the storage warehouse and the recycling warehouse, and are both used to obtain the information recorded on the RFID tag module of the medical consumables, and push the obtained product information and location information to the data server module;

[0039] The data server module is used to receive the product information and location information pushed by the in-out warehouse identification module and the recycling area identification module, and record them in the server for the management personnel to monitor the use and recycling of medical consumables.

[0040] In a specific implementation manner:

[0041] The RFID tag module is integrated with a positioning unit. The positioning unit uses a GPS module to position the medical consumables. By integrating the GPS module into the RFID tag module and obtaining the geographical location information of the RFID tag module through the GPS signal, the location information of the medical consumables can be obtained, and these information can be obtained and recorded through the reading and writing module, thus effectively preventing the loss of medical consumables.

[0042] The intelligent recycling system further includes a clock module. The data server module performs data interaction with the clock module through the network. When the data server module receives the product information and location information recorded by the RFID tag module pushed by the reading and writing module, it obtains the current time information from the clock module and records it in the server. By synchronizing the time, it is convenient to understand the use situation of medical consumables and facilitate the management and tracking of medical consumables.

[0043] The intelligent recycling system also includes a verification system and a user terminal. The data server module and the verification system both interact with the display module through the network. The verification system is used to compare the information pushed to the data server module by the in-and-out warehouse read-write module and the recycling area read-write module, and generate a verification report. The user terminal can receive the verification report generated by the verification system. Through the verification system, when it is close to the end of the work day, it will automatically check whether the medical consumables shipped from the storage warehouse have entered the recycling warehouse, and send a verification report to the user terminal of the manager for the management to manage and track medical consumables. This can greatly reduce the pressure and workload of the medical consumables inventory during surgery, accurately and efficiently understand the use and recycling of medical consumables, ensure that medical consumables are not lost, and facilitate use.

[0044] The intelligent recycling system also includes a display module, and the data server module exchanges data with the display module through the network. The display module is used to display the product information, location information, time information and verification report of the medical consumables recorded by the data server module. Through the display module, the use information of medical consumables and the information of medical consumables shipped out of the storage warehouse and entering the recycling warehouse every day can be more intuitively observed, which is convenient for the management and tracking of medical consumables.

[0045] In a specific embodiment:

[0046] The read-write module also includes an intermediate station read-write module, which is located at the access control of the operating area and is used to obtain the information stored on the RFID tag module on the medical consumables, and push the obtained product information and location information to the data server module. By adding an intermediate station read-write module in the operating area, it plays the role of adding an intermediate management point for medical consumables, and can understand the use records and locations of medical consumables, which is convenient for management personnel to manage and track.

[0047] The identification module also includes a biometric identification unit, a face recognition device of the biometric identification unit, and the access control of the storage warehouse, the operating area and the recycling warehouse are all equipped with a biometric identification unit for identifying the operator's identity information and pushing the operator's identity information to the data server module. By adopting biometric identification technology, the use of medical consumables and the identity of the operator are linked together, which is convenient for finding the responsible person as soon as the number of medical consumables is abnormal, and is convenient for use. It is easy for those skilled in the art to think of that the biometric identification unit can also be a fingerprint identifier, an iris identifier or one or more of the above identifiers, and the operator's identity information is identified by fingerprint recognition, iris recognition or a combination thereof, which effectively ensures the accuracy of the operator's identity recognition.

[0048] A medical consumables recycling method based on RFID technology comprises the following steps:

[0049] a. When medical consumables are put into storage, an RFID tag module is set on the medical consumables, and the product information and location information of the medical consumables are recorded on the RFID tag module. The information on the RFID tag module is read by the in-and-out reading and writing module. This is the first time to identify and judge it as storage. Then the medical consumables are put into the storage warehouse, and the obtained storage information is pushed to the data server module. At the same time, the current time information is obtained from the clock module and recorded in the server;

[0050] b. When taking medical consumables, the operator authenticates the identity through the biometric identification unit, and reads the RFID tag module on the medical consumables through the in-and-out reading and writing module. This is the second identification, and it is judged as out-of-stock. The out-of-stock information is pushed to the data server module, and the current time information is obtained from the clock module and recorded in the server;

[0051] c. When the medical consumables are used, the information on the RFID tag module is read through the intermediate station reading and writing module, and the obtained intermediate station usage information is pushed to the data server module. At the same time, the current time information is obtained from the clock module and recorded in the server;

[0052] d. After the medical consumables are used up, the information on the RFID tag module is read by the recycling area read-write module. This is the last identification and it is judged as recycling. Then the medical consumables are placed in the recycling warehouse and the obtained recycling information is pushed to the data server module. At the same time, the current time information is obtained from the clock module and recorded in the server;

[0053] e. When it is close to the end of the get off work day, the verification system is running, and the outbound information and recycling information pushed to the data server module by the inbound and outbound reading and writing module and the recycling area reading and writing module are obtained from the data server module and compared, and a verification report is generated and pushed to the user terminal for management personnel to monitor the use and recycling of medical consumables.

[0054] In a specific implementation, step d also includes: after the recycling area reading and writing module reads the information on the RFID tag module, the data server module associates the relevant read information in the current use cycle of the medical consumables after receiving the information pushed by the recycling area reading and writing module. If the medical consumables are reusable, and after the recycling and disinfection treatment is completed, the information on the RFID tag module is read by the warehouse entry and exit reading and writing module, and the medical consumables are put into the warehouse again, and the previous read information is archived. It is convenient to manage and track medical consumables, aiming to improve the management efficiency and accuracy of consumables in medical facilities or other industries, while reducing management costs and workload, and reducing subsequent safety hazards caused by the loss of consumables.

[0055] The above are only embodiments of the present invention, and do not limit the patent scope of the present invention. Any equivalent structure or equivalent process transformation made by using the content of the specification and drawings of the present invention, or directly or indirectly applied in other related technical fields, shall be similarly included in the patent protection scope of the present invention.
