[0026] To solve the technical problem of poor accuracy in the supervision of hospital consumable usage, the embodiments of the present invention provide a hospital consumable usage supervision system and a supervision method. By analyzing the relevant consumable data of each department in the hospital and the relevant data of patient visits, the upward trend degree of the number of patients visiting each department, the basic consumable demand degree, and the indirect influence degree of consumable usage in the current period are determined. Furthermore, the consumable usage allowance of each department is adaptively determined, and based on the consumable usage allowance, it is judged whether to issue an abnormal warning for consumables.

[0027] Next, a hospital consumable usage supervision system and a supervision method provided by the embodiments of the present invention will be introduced in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0028] Figure 1 The basic flowchart of a hospital consumable usage supervision method provided by the embodiments of the present invention is shown, as Figure 1 shown, and the method specifically includes the following steps: Step S100: Obtain the relevant consumable data of each department in the hospital and the relevant data of patient visits.

[0029] Specifically, due to factors such as department diagnosis and treatment requirements and treatment methods in the hospital, there are differences in the medical consumables used between different departments. For example, there are differences in the types and quantities of consumables. In order to accurately supervise the consumable usage of each department in the hospital, based on the relevant intelligent management system of the hospital, the relevant consumable data of each department in the hospital can be obtained. The relevant consumable data may include data such as the types of medical consumables used annually, monthly, and daily, the consumption quantity of each consumable, the unit cost of each consumable, etc., and the types of medical consumables received annually, monthly, and daily, the total received quantity of each consumable, etc. At the same time, the relevant data of patient visits to each department in the hospital can also be obtained. The relevant data of patient visits may include data such as the number of patients visiting annually, monthly, and daily, and the specific visit time.

[0030] Step S200: Analyze the relevant consumable data to determine the basic consumable demand degree of each department.

[0031] Specifically, due to differences in disease types and diagnostic requirements among different departments, there will also be varying degrees of differences in the amount of consumables used. For example, the consumable usage in the surgical department and the emergency department is usually much higher than that in the internal medicine department or the outpatient department. Therefore, when supervising the consumables of different departments, it is necessary to fully consider the normal consumable quantity of each department itself.

[0032] To better understand the consumption patterns of the overall equipment resources in each department, the basic consumable performance of each department can be analyzed for its main consumables. This is because main consumables usually have a high usage frequency, a relatively high unit cost, and a significant impact on the department's operation and cost. By analyzing the main consumables, the focus can be on the aspects affecting the department's operation and cost, so as to better monitor and manage the department's consumables.

[0033] Based on the relevant consumable data of each department, further, in a possible implementation manner, determining the basic consumable demand of each department in step S200 includes: Step S201: Determine the intersection of all the types of consumables in all unit time periods within the past set time period for each department to obtain the main consumable types of each department.

[0034] Specifically, based on the main consumable types used by each department, as well as the usage quantity and unit cost of each main consumable, the theoretical consumable proportion of each department is evaluated. For this purpose, the set time period is set as one year, and the unit time period is set as one month. Based on the relevant consumable data of each department, determine all the types of consumables in each month within the past year for each department, so as to obtain the consumable name sequence of each month for each department in the past year. For each department, take the intersection of the consumable name sequences of each month within the past year to obtain the main consumable types of each department.

[0035] Step S202: Determine the basic consumable demand of each department based on the consumption quantity and unit cost of the main consumable types in each department within the past set time period.

[0036] Specifically, for all the main consumables of each department, based on their consumption quantity and unit cost within the past year, determine the basic consumable demand of each department. When the values of the consumption quantity and unit cost are larger, it indicates that the theoretical consumable proportion of this department is higher, and the corresponding value of the basic consumable demand is larger.

[0037] In a specific implementation manner, the basic consumable demand of each department is calculated through the following formula: ; In the formula: represents the basic consumable demand of the i-th department; M represents the number of types of main consumables of the i-th department; represents the consumption quantity of the m-th main consumable of the i-th department within the past set time period (the past year); represents the unit cost coefficient of the m-th main consumable of the i-th department, which is obtained by normalizing the unit cost of the m-th main consumable of the i-th department using the standard normalization function; Represents the standard normalization function, which is used to normalize the numerical value to the range of (0, 1).

[0038] In the above calculation formula, by taking the unit cost coefficient of each major consumable in each department as the weight, the consumption of all major consumables in the past year is weighted and summed and normalized, so as to comprehensively determine the basic consumable demand degree of each department.

[0039] Step S300: Conduct correlation analysis on the relevant consumable data of different departments to determine the influence degree of consumable use association between any two departments.

[0040] Specifically, the amount of consumables in each department in the hospital not only affects its own operation, but also affects other departments associated with its consumable use. This is because the same consumables are used during diagnosis and treatment between different departments. For example, the emergency department usually needs to frequently use consumables such as gloves and disinfectants, and the general outpatient department also needs to use a large amount of gloves and disinfectants. If the number of patients in one of the departments suddenly increases due to some reason, it may lead to a large consumption of this kind of consumable, and then due to inventory problems, there may be a shortage of consumables in multiple departments. Therefore, in order to accurately supervise the medical consumables of each department in the hospital, it is also necessary to analyze the influence of consumables of multi-department associated equipment.

[0041] Furthermore, in a possible implementation manner, determining the influence degree of consumable use association between any two departments in the above step S300 includes: Step S301: Determine the intersection of the major consumable types of any two departments to obtain the common major consumable types of any two departments.

[0042] Specifically, based on the major consumable types of each department, determine the intersection of the major consumable types of the i-th and j-th departments, so as to obtain the common major consumable types of the i-th and j-th departments.

[0043]

[0044] Specifically, for the i-th and j-th departments, the more types of common major consumables they have and the closer the consumption of each common major consumable is, it means that the higher consumption of consumables caused by a sudden increase in patients in any one of the departments has a greater impact on the other department, and the value of the influence degree of consumable use association between the i-th and j-th departments is larger.

[0045] ​Further, in a specific implementation manner, determining the correlation influence degree of consumable usage between any two departments includes: determining the sum value and the absolute value of the difference of the consumption amounts of the same shared main consumable types between any two departments within a set past time period, obtaining the sum value of consumption amounts and the consumption difference value; determining the relative change value of consumption amounts based on the sum value of consumption amounts and the consumption difference value; normalizing the accumulated value of the relative change values of the consumption amounts of each shared main consumable type between any two departments to obtain the correlation influence degree of consumable usage between any two departments.

[0046] In this specific implementation manner, the correlation influence degree of consumable usage between any two departments can be calculated by the following formula: ; In the formula: represents the correlation influence degree of consumable usage between the i-th department and the j-th department of the hospital; represents the consumption amount of the g-th shared main consumable type among all the main consumable types of the i-th department and the j-th department within a set past time period (the past year); represents the consumption amount of the g-th shared main consumable type among all the main consumable types of the j-th department and the i-th department within a set past time period (the past year); represents the total number of all the main consumable types of the i-th department and the j-th department within a set past time period (the past year); represents an infinitesimal greater than 0, used to prevent the denominator from being zero; represents a standard normalization function, used to normalize the value to the range of (0, 1).

[0047] By analyzing the consumption differences of each shared main consumable type between any two departments within a set past time period as described above, the correlation influence degree of consumable usage between any two departments can be determined.

[0048] Step S400: Analyze the change trend of the patient visit-related data in different periods to determine the rising trend degree of the number of patients visiting each department in different periods.

[0049] Specifically, seasonal factors can significantly affect the prevalence of diseases. Especially in seasons with large temperature changes or significant humidity fluctuations, it often leads to a peak in the spread of certain diseases (such as influenza, respiratory infections, etc.). The prevalence of these diseases not only causes a sharp increase in the number of patients visiting relevant departments, but may also trigger changes in patients' medical needs, further exacerbating the consumption of medical resources. Specifically, with the prevalence of infectious diseases such as influenza and respiratory infections, the number of patients visiting the hospital surges, and the pressure faced by each relevant department in the hospital (such as the respiratory department, infectious disease department, emergency department, etc.) increases accordingly. In this case, the demand for consumables within the department, such as antibiotics, masks, disinfectants, test reagents, disposable medical devices, etc., also increases significantly.

[0050] Therefore, based on the patient visit-related data of each department, the past nearly three months are set as the current period, and each day within the past nearly three months is taken as a unit of time. Thus, the number of patients visiting each unit of time within the current period can be determined. Based on the changes in the number of patients visiting each unit of time within this current period, the upward trend degree of the number of patients visiting each department in the current period can be determined. For example, when the number of patients visiting each unit of time within the current period shows a gradually increasing trend, the value of the upward trend degree of the number of patients visiting is larger. Similarly, taking the same historical period (such as the same time period last year) as a period, based on the changes in the number of patients visiting each unit of time within this period, the upward trend degree of the number of patients visiting each department in this period can also be determined.

[0051] Furthermore, in a possible implementation manner, determining the upward trend degree of the number of patients visiting each department in different periods in step S400 above includes: Step S401: Perform curve fitting on the number of patients visiting each department within all unit times in each period to obtain a fitted curve.

[0052] Specifically, taking the current period (the past nearly three months) as an example, perform curve fitting on the number of patients visiting each department within each unit time (i.e., each day) in the past nearly three months by the least squares method to determine the corresponding fitted curve for this period. Since the specific implementation process of curve fitting by the least squares method belongs to the prior art, it will not be elaborated here.

[0053] Step S402: Determine the maximum point of the fitted curve, and based on the number of patients corresponding to the maximum point and the time interval between adjacent maximum points, determine the upward trend degree of the number of patients visiting each department in each period.

[0054] Specifically, by screening the maximum values of the fitting curve, all the maximum points in the fitting curve can be determined. For the data performance where the overall number of patients seeking medical treatment shows an upward trend, it can be reflected by analyzing the degree of increase in the number of patients seeking medical treatment corresponding to the maximum points and the proximity in time between the maximum points. When the number of patients seeking medical treatment corresponding to the maximum points shows an upward trend, the higher the increase rate, and the higher the proximity in time between the maximum points, it indicates that the upward trend of the overall number of patients seeking medical treatment is more obvious, and the value of the upward trend degree of the number of patients seeking medical treatment in the corresponding department during this period is larger.

[0055] Further, in a specific implementation manner, determining the upward trend degree of the number of patients seeking medical treatment in each department during each period includes: determining the ratio of the number of patients seeking medical treatment corresponding to the latter maximum point to the number of patients seeking medical treatment corresponding to the former maximum point among every two adjacent maximum points to obtain a first ratio; determining the product of the negative correlation processing result of the time interval between every two adjacent maximum points and the first ratio to obtain a first product; performing normalization processing on the cumulative value of the first products corresponding to all adjacent two maximum points to obtain the upward trend degree of the number of patients seeking medical treatment in each department during each period.

[0056] In this specific implementation manner, taking the current period (the past nearly three months) as an example, the upward trend degree of the number of patients seeking medical treatment in each department during each period can be calculated through the following formula: ; In the formula: represents the upward trend degree of the number of patients seeking medical treatment in the i-th department during the current period (the past nearly three months); N represents the total number of maximum points in the fitting curve of the number of patients seeking medical treatment in the i-th department during the current period; represents the number of patients seeking medical treatment corresponding to the (n + 1)-th maximum point of the i-th department; represents the number of patients seeking medical treatment corresponding to the n-th maximum point of the i-th department; represents the time interval (in days) between the n-th and (n + 1)-th maximum points of the i-th department; represents the negative correlation processing result of the time interval between the n-th and (n + 1)-th maximum points of the i-th department; represents the standard normalization function, which is used to normalize the value to the range of (0, 1).

[0057] By analyzing the ratio of the number of patients visiting the doctor corresponding to the latter maximum point to the former maximum point among each adjacent pair of maximum points in the fitting curve, as well as the time interval between each adjacent pair of maximum points, it is possible to determine the upward trend degree of the number of patients visiting each department in the current period, that is, recently. In the same way, it is also possible to determine the upward trend degree of the number of patients visiting in the corresponding historical same period (the same time period last year) to quantify the upward trend degree of the number of patients visiting the doctor.

[0058] Step S500: Based on the upward trend degree of the number of patients visiting each department in the current period, and combining the differences between the upward trend degrees of the number of patients visiting in different periods and the differences between the relevant data of patients' visits, determine the upward trend of the number of patients visiting each department affected by seasons.

[0059] Specifically, a comparative analysis can be carried out between the current period and the same period in the past to reflect whether the upward trend performance of the number of patients visiting each department in the current period is caused by seasonal factors, so as to further reflect the intuitive impact brought by the increase in the number of patients visiting in the current period.

[0060] Furthermore, in a possible implementation manner, determining the upward trend of the number of patients visiting each department affected by seasons in the above step S500 includes: Step S501: Determine the first trend degree and the second trend degree in the upward trend degrees of the number of patients visiting each department in the current period and its previous same period, where the first trend degree is greater than or equal to the second trend degree.

[0061] Specifically, taking the i-th department as an example, determine the larger value and the smaller value in the upward trend degrees of the number of patients visiting the i-th department in the current period and the historical same time period (the same time period last year), and determine the larger value as the first trend degree and the smaller value as the second trend degree.

[0062] Step S502: Determine the first number of patients and the second number of patients in the total number of patients visiting in the current period and its previous same period, where the first number of patients is greater than or equal to the second number of patients.

[0063] Specifically, in view of the influence of seasonal factors, when analyzing and comparing the patient visit situations of each department in the current period and the same historical period, not only should the increasing trend degrees of the number of patients visiting both periods be considered, but also whether the numbers of patients visiting are at the same level. Therefore, it is necessary to obtain the total number of patients visiting each department in the current period and its previous same period. Taking the i-th department as an example, the number of patients visiting each unit time in each period of the i-th department is accumulated to obtain the total number of patients visiting the i-th department in each period. Determine the larger value and the smaller value among the total number of patients visiting the i-th department in the current period and the same historical time period (the same time period last year), and determine the larger value as the first patient number and the smaller value as the second patient number.

[0064] Step S503: Determine the ratio of the second trend degree to the first trend degree to obtain a second ratio, and determine the ratio of the second patient number to the first patient number to obtain a third ratio.

[0065] Specifically, take the second trend degree as the numerator of the second ratio and the first trend degree as the denominator of the second ratio to obtain the second ratio, which is also called the rising trend proximity. At the same time, take the second patient number as the numerator of the third ratio and the first patient number as the denominator of the third ratio to obtain the third ratio, which is also called the same-level degree of the number of patients visiting.

[0066] Step S504: Determine the product of the second ratio and the third ratio to obtain a second product, and determine the second product as the degree of seasonal influence of each department.

[0067] Step S505: Use the degree of seasonal influence to correct the increasing trend degree of the number of patients visiting each department in the current period to obtain the increasing trend of the number of patients visiting each department affected by seasons.

[0068] Specifically, when the degree of influence of seasonal factors is higher, the value of the corresponding degree of seasonal influence is smaller; on the contrary, the value of the degree of seasonal influence is close to 1. Use the degree of seasonal influence to perform weighted correction on the increasing trend degree of the number of patients visiting each department in the current period, that is, multiply the degree of seasonal influence of each department by the increasing trend degree of the number of patients visiting each department in the current period, and take the obtained product value as the increasing trend of the number of patients visiting each department affected by seasons.

[0069] By comparing the increasing trend degree of the number of patients visiting and the total number of patients visiting between the current period and its previous same period, the degree of seasonal influence of each department is determined, and the increasing trend degree of the number of patients visiting each department in the current period is corrected by using this degree of seasonal influence, so as to finally accurately obtain the increasing trend of the number of patients visiting each department affected by seasons.

[0070] Step S600: Based on the upward trend of the number of patients seeking medical treatment affected by seasons and the relevant consumable data, and in combination with the influence degree of the consumable usage of each department on that of other departments, determine the indirect influence degree of the consumable usage of each department affected by the patient load of other departments.

[0071] Specifically, there is usually a positive correlation between the consumable usage of each department and the upward trend of the number of patients seeking medical treatment. That is, an increase in the number of patients often leads to an increase in the consumable usage. However, the relationship between the two is not completely linear. Specifically, although an increase in the number of patients may mean more medical treatment needs, these patients do not always require a large amount of medical consumables. For example, some patients may only undergo some simple medical measures, such as feeling the pulse, measuring blood pressure, and routine physical examinations, and these medical treatment processes do not necessarily consume a large amount of medical devices or consumables.

[0072] Therefore, based on the upward trend of the number of patients seeking medical treatment affected by seasons and the relevant consumable data of each department, analyze the relationship between the consumable usage of each department and the upward trend of the number of patients seeking medical treatment. At the same time, in combination with the influence degree of the consumable usage of each department on that of other departments, determine the influence of the patient load of other departments on each department, so as to obtain the indirect influence degree of the consumable usage of each department affected by the patient load of other departments.

[0073] Further, in a possible implementation manner, determining the indirect influence degree of the consumable usage of each department affected by the patient load of other departments in the above step S600 includes: Step S601: Determine the consumable surplus based on the difference between the total receipt amount of all consumables received by each department within each unit time and the total consumption amount of all consumables used.

[0074] Specifically, based on the relevant consumable data of each department, the total receipt amount of all consumables received by each department within each unit time (each day) within each unit period (one month) and the total consumption amount of all consumables used can be determined. For any department, calculate the ratio of the total consumption amount of all consumables used by the department within each unit time to the total receipt amount of all consumables received, and calculate the absolute value of the difference between this ratio and the value 1 as the consumable surplus of the department within each unit time.

[0075] Step S602: Based on the upward trend of the number of patients seeking medical treatment affected by seasons in each department, and in combination with the average distribution level of the consumable surplus of each department within each unit time in at least the recent one unit period, determine the influence manifestation degree of the increase in the number of patients seeking medical treatment affected by seasons on the consumable usage of each department.

[0076] Specifically, the total amount of consumables received by each department every day is the amount determined by the doctor based on a preliminary estimate of the number of patients seen, which can roughly reflect the doctor's predicted assessment of the amount of consumables required based on the recent patient volume performance. The daily balance of consumables is the actual measurement of the amount of consumables actually used after the patients are seen on the same day. Therefore, the larger the daily balance of consumables, the lower the utilization rate of the consumables received based on the doctor's estimate of the recent patient volume. For example, when the number of patients increases, the degree of increase in the actual need for consumables is not high.

[0077] Calculate the average of the daily consumable balances of each department at each unit time (each day) within the most recent unit period (the most recent month) for each department to obtain the comprehensive consumable balance of each department within the most recent unit period. Use the comprehensive consumable balance of each department within the most recent unit period as the weight and multiply it by the upward trend of the number of patients seen in each department affected by the season to obtain the influence performance degree of the increase in the number of patients seen in each department affected by the season on the consumable usage.

[0078] Step S603: Normalize the product of the sum of the associated influence degrees of consumable usage between each department and other departments and the influence performance degree of each department to obtain the indirect influence degree of consumable usage of each department affected by the patient load of other departments.

[0079] Specifically, the increase in the number of patients seen in each department affected by the season will affect the usage amount of related consumables used by that department. Therefore, based on the associated influence degrees of consumable usage between different departments, the indirect influence on the actual consumable usage affected by the patient load of the department due to seasonal factors and the consumable usage of other departments can be considered.

[0080] In a specific implementation manner, based on the influence performance degree of the increase in the number of patients seen in each department affected by the season on the consumable usage and the associated influence degrees of consumable usage between each department and other departments, the indirect influence degree of consumable usage of each department affected by the patient load of other departments can be calculated through the following formula: ; In the formula: represents the indirect influence degree of consumable usage of the i-th department affected by the patient load of other departments; J represents the total number of all departments in the hospital; represents the associated influence degree of consumable usage between the i-th department and the j-th department in the hospital; represents the influence performance degree of the increase in the number of patients seen in the i-th department affected by the season on the consumable usage; represents the standard normalization function, which is used to normalize the value to the range of (0, 1).

[0081] Based on the upward trend of the number of patients visiting each department affected by seasons, and combined with the balance of consumables in each unit time of each department in the recent unit period, the influence degree of the increase in the number of patients visiting each department affected by seasons on the use of consumables is determined. Furthermore, by combining the influence degree of the use of consumables associated with each department on other departments, the indirect influence degree of the use of consumables affected by the visit load of other departments in each department is finally accurately determined.

[0082] Step S700: Based on the upward trend degree of the number of patients visiting each department in the current period, the basic consumable demand degree, and the indirect influence degree of the use of consumables, determine the allowable degree of consumable use for each department.

[0083] Specifically, the management of the use of consumables in each department not only needs to focus on the current number of patients visiting the department, but also must consider the indirect influence among departments. Especially when the same or similar consumables are used in different departments, it is necessary to avoid shortages or waste of consumables in other departments due to excessive use in a certain department. Therefore, it is crucial to reasonably regulate the consumption of consumables in each department, avoid overconsumption, and ensure the fair distribution of resources.

[0084] In order to more effectively supervise consumables, a strategy can be formulated based on the theoretical degree of basic consumable use in each department and in combination with a dynamic adjustment method. Specifically, when the basic consumable demand degree of a department is large, it means that the department usually requires more consumables. Therefore, in the face of an increase in the number of patients, more attention needs to be paid to the upward trend of the number of patients visiting the department itself, and then the allowable degree of consumable use in the department is appropriately increased. This strategy can ensure that when the number of patients surges, the department can meet the consumable demand in a timely manner and avoid affecting the treatment effect due to insufficient consumables. On the contrary, when the basic consumable demand degree of a department is small, that is, the consumable demand of the department is usually relatively limited. At this time, more attention should be paid to the indirect influence of the change in the visit load of other departments on this department. For example, when the visit load of other departments increases, it may lead to an increase in the demand for the same or similar consumables, thereby indirectly affecting the consumable supply of this department. Therefore, at this time, the allowable degree of consumable use in this department needs to be reduced to avoid over-reliance on consumables and causing resource waste, while ensuring that other departments can obtain sufficient support during the high-demand period.

[0085] Furthermore, in a specific implementation manner, determining the allowable degree of consumable use for each department in the above step S700 includes: Step S701: Determine the product of the upward trend degree of the number of patients visiting each department in the current period and the basic consumable demand degree to obtain a third product.

[0086] Step S702: Determine the product of the negatively correlated mapping value of the basic consumable demand degree of each department and the indirect influence degree of the use of consumables to obtain a fourth product.

[0087] Step S703: Determine the difference between the third product and the fourth product of each department, so as to obtain the allowable consumable usage of each department.

[0088] In this specific implementation method, based on the upward trend degree of the number of patients visiting each department in the current period, the basic consumable demand degree, and the indirect influence degree of consumable usage, the allowable consumable usage of each department is calculated through the following formula: ; In the formula: represents the allowable consumable usage of the i-th department; represents the basic consumable demand degree of the i-th department; represents the upward trend degree of the number of patients visiting the i-th department; represents the indirect influence degree of consumable usage of the i-th department affected by the visiting load of other departments.

[0089] Based on the upward trend degree of the number of patients visiting each department in the current period, the basic consumable demand degree, and the indirect influence degree of consumable usage, the allowable consumable usage of each department can be adaptively determined.

[0090] Step S800: Based on the allowable consumable usage, determine whether to issue a consumable anomaly warning.

[0091] A set allowable degree threshold is preset. In a specific implementation method, the value of the set allowable degree threshold is set to 0.65. Compare the allowable consumable usage of each department with the set allowable degree threshold. When the allowable consumable usage is less than or equal to the set allowable degree threshold, it indicates that the consumable usage of this department is normal; otherwise, when the allowable consumable usage is greater than the set allowable degree threshold, it is considered that there is a certain anomaly in the consumable usage of this department, and a consumable anomaly warning is issued for this department to remind the management personnel to conduct corresponding specific reviews and supervision.
