[0026] Various other advantages and benefits will become apparent to those skilled in the art upon reading the following detailed description of preferred embodiments. The accompanying drawings are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the invention. Furthermore, the same reference numerals denote the same parts throughout the drawings. In the drawings:

[0027] Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the structure of a wrist-type verification device for outpatient infusion prompts is shown in an embodiment of the present invention. Detailed Implementation

[0028] Exemplary embodiments of the invention will now be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. While exemplary embodiments of the invention are shown in the drawings, it should be understood that the invention may be implemented in various forms and should not be limited to the embodiments set forth herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided to enable a more thorough understanding of the invention and to fully convey the scope of the invention to those skilled in the art.

[0029] Embodiments of the present invention provide a wrist-type verification device for outpatient infusion prompts, such as... Figure 1 As shown, it includes:

[0030] Wristband 101, worn on the wrist of medical staff;

[0031] The display screen 102 is mounted on the wristband 101;

[0032] The scanning module 103, integrated into one end of the display screen 102, is used to scan patient information on the patient's wristband.

[0033] The microprocessor 104 is connected to the scanning module 103 and the display screen 102. It is used to obtain the corresponding medical order information based on the patient information and display the patient information and medical order information on the display screen. The medical order information includes medication information.

[0034] The voice broadcast module 105, connected to the microprocessor 104, is used to remind patients and medical staff to verify patient information and medication information before infusion.

[0035] In a specific implementation, for patients receiving intravenous infusions, due to the flexibility of their location, medical staff wearing this wrist-worn verification device can verify the patient's information anytime, anywhere, in preparation for administering the infusion.

[0036] Specifically, this medication information includes information on intravenous or oral medications. Since patients may also receive oral medications as adjunctive therapy during intravenous treatment, it is necessary to verify the information for both intravenous and oral medications to prevent medical accidents.

[0037] First, medical staff wear the wristband verification device to the infusion patient and scan the patient's information on the wristband using the scanning module 103 of the device. For example, the wristband has a QR code containing the patient's basic information, such as name and age. This basic patient information is used to uniquely identify the patient and prevent misidentification due to people with the same name.

[0038] In this invention, it can be not only a patient's wristband that scans the patient, but also other medical service cards and other identifying objects that can identify the patient's identity. This invention does not limit the scope of the invention.

[0039] Next, the microprocessor 104 obtains the corresponding medical order information based on this patient information. Specifically, the wrist-worn verification device also includes a wireless transmission module connected to the microprocessor 104, which is used to obtain the medical order information corresponding to the patient information from the hospital management information system based on the control instructions of the microprocessor 104.

[0040] The control command is triggered based on the step of verifying patient information.

[0041] The wrist-worn verification device connects to the Hospital Information System (HIS) via a wireless transmission module. Under the control of the microprocessor 104, it retrieves the corresponding medical order information for the patient from the HIS, including the allocated medication information, and displays it on the display screen 102. It also displays the patient information.

[0042] Next, medical staff obtain the corresponding medication information based on the doctor's orders and bring these medications to the patient's infusion site to begin the pre-infusion verification process. At this time, the voice broadcast module 105 issues a reminder message to remind the patient and medical staff to verify the patient information and medication information.

[0043] In this process, patients need to confirm whether the patient information belongs to them, while medical staff need to verify whether the medication information they are currently carrying matches the medication information displayed on screen 102.

[0044] Verification accuracy is improved by having both the patient and healthcare staff participate simultaneously. Furthermore, the use of voice prompts from the device avoids the desensitization that can result from prolonged self-reminders by healthcare staff.

[0045] After both parties confirm that everything is correct, they click the confirmation button on the display screen 102 to execute the subsequent infusion operation.

[0046] Of course, if both parties confirm a discrepancy, i.e., a mismatch between patient information and medication information, a prompt can be made via the buttons on display screen 102, at which point a re-verification is required. Therefore, the voice broadcast module 105 is also used for:

[0047] If patient information and medication information do not match, remind medical staff to collect patient information again. Of course, medical staff will also need to prepare the medication again based on the obtained medication information.

[0048] Next, during the infusion process, the voice broadcast module 105 will broadcast the precautions for the infusion process to remind the medical staff to follow the corresponding procedures. By actively reminding the medical staff through the voice broadcast module 105, the system can prevent medical staff from failing to perform important matters in a timely manner due to fatigue.

[0049] For example, during intravenous infusion, depending on the patient's type, medical staff need to be reminded to control the drip rate.

[0050] Specifically, the voice broadcast module 105 is also used for:

[0051] During intravenous infusion, if the patient is an adult, remind medical staff to control the infusion rate to 40-60 drops / minute; if the patient is a child, remind medical staff to control the infusion rate to 20-40 drops / minute.

[0052] Depending on the patient's type, medical staff are reminded to control different drip rates to adapt to the different vascular absorption conditions of each patient and avoid causing discomfort.

[0053] After the infusion is completed and the medical staff removes the IV needle, the voice broadcast module 105 also needs to educate the patient on relevant precautions, such as appropriate physical activity, avoiding running around, paying attention to rest, and eating a light diet.

[0054] For pediatric patients, animated educational materials can be displayed on the screen to remind them to pay attention to relevant precautions.

[0055] Of course, different educational methods can be used for different groups of people. For example, patients with eye diseases can be given voice broadcasts, and patients with ear diseases can be given video broadcasts, so that medical staff can convey the relevant precautions in a timely manner.

[0056] In one alternative implementation, the wrist-worn verification device further includes:

[0057] A rechargeable battery powers the display 102, scanning module 103, microprocessor 104, and voice broadcast module 105, and does not require a power supply, making it easy for medical personnel to carry and use.

[0058] In one alternative embodiment, the end of the wristband 101 is provided with a nylon hook for easy securing of the wristband.

[0059] One or more technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention have at least the following technical effects or advantages:

[0060] This invention provides a wrist-type verification device for outpatient infusion reminders, comprising: a wristband worn on the wrist of a medical staff member; a display screen mounted on the wristband; a scanning module integrated into one end of the display screen for scanning patient information on the patient's wristband; a microprocessor connected to the scanning module and the display screen for obtaining relevant medical order information based on the patient information and displaying the patient information and medical order information, including medication information, on the display screen; and a voice broadcast module connected to the microprocessor for reminding the patient and medical staff to verify the patient information and medication information before infusion. Using this verification device for reminders and verification reduces the workload of medical staff, thereby preventing medical accidents and improving medical safety.
