[0002] At present, hospitals generally use bedside devices such as bedside call bells to monitor patients in wards and quickly establish communication with patients. Bedside call bells are one of the important devices in clinical nursing work, which are used to call and notify medical staff in time when patients need them.

[0003] Traditional bedside call bells are usually fixed to the bedside, which is inconvenient to use and easily damaged. In order to facilitate the use of patients, the existing technology has extended the connection line of the bedside bell call device, but it is still inconvenient to use when the patient's limb mobility is small during treatment and nursing (such as intravenous drips limit limb mobility) or small limb mobility after surgery (postoperative pain limits limb mobility) and there is no accompanying care. Some patients even use ropes to tie the bedside bell to the bed rails, but these operations often increase the pain of patients and reduce satisfaction. In addition, if the patient needs to go out for activities, his vital signs cannot be monitored in real time. Once the patient's body is abnormal, the patient must be transferred to the ward or returned to get the monitoring equipment to obtain the patient's vital signs data. This waste of time can easily cause the patient to miss the golden time for treatment.

[0004] It can be seen that the existing bedside call bell device has the problem of unreasonable structural design, incomplete functions and inconvenience in use. Utility Model Content

The entire device has a simple and reasonable structural design, can be used for multiple purposes in a variety of scenarios, and is easy to carry and use.

[0034] In order to better understand the above technical solution, the above technical solution will be described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0035] Embodiment 1:

[0036] This embodiment proposes a vital sign monitoring bracelet 2 with a calling function, see Figure 1 , which includes:

[0037] Display 21, wristband 22, control unit 23, wireless communication module 24, and vital sign collection unit 25. With these structures and components, the vital sign monitoring bracelet with call function can collect the vital sign data of the patient when worn on the patient, and can timely feedback the patient's physical condition to the central dispatching equipment in the hospital duty room or nurse station in real time. For details, see Figure 1 and Figure 2 :

[0038] In order to facilitate the patient to carry the vital sign monitoring bracelet 2 with a call function and prevent the device from being lost, a telescopic wristband ring 22 is provided on the vital sign monitoring bracelet 2 with a call function. The wristband ring 22 is made of a light and soft material (for example, cotton, linen, etc.), and the two ends of the wristband ring 22 are provided with adhesive buckles, Velcro or buckle structures for use, so that the patient can adjust the tightness of the wristband according to the thickness of the wrist and connect and fix it. In addition, the wristband ring 22 is designed to be telescopic, that is, when not worn, the wristband ring 22 shrinks inside the vital sign monitoring bracelet 2 with a call function. When it is necessary to wear it, the wristband ring 22 can be pulled out and worn by pulling, which is similar to the telescopic function and corresponding telescopic structure of a telescopic data line. Specifically, when realizing this function, a volute spring 26 at one end of the wristband ring 22 can be used, one end of the volute spring 26 is fixed to one end of the display 21 of the vital sign monitoring bracelet 2 with a call function, and the other end is fixedly connected to one end of the wristband ring 22.

[0039] In addition, in order to facilitate the location of the patient and facilitate medical staff and family members to find the patient in time, a preferred method is that the above-mentioned vital sign monitoring bracelet 2 with a call function also includes a positioning unit 29 for real-time positioning of the patient's position. Specifically, the positioning unit 29 includes but is not limited to a GPS chip, a Beidou positioning unit 29, etc. The positioning unit 29 collects the patient's spatial location information, and feeds back the corresponding location information to the central dispatching equipment in the hospital duty room or nurse station through the wireless communication module 24 for display. Among them, the wireless communication module 24 includes but is not limited to a zigbee module, a wifi transmission module, a Bluetooth transmission module, etc. In this embodiment, the wireless communication module 24 selects a zigbee module. Specifically, the Zigbee chip can use JN5148, CC2530, CC2430, etc.

[0040] Furthermore, the vital sign monitoring bracelet 2 with a call function is also equipped with a vital sign collection unit 25 to collect the patient's vital sign data. Specifically, the vital sign collection unit 25 includes: a body surface temperature sensor, a heart rate sensor, a pulse oximeter and other sensors. The above sensors are reasonably arranged on the wristband ring 22 according to the actual needs of data collection, so that when the patient wears the vital sign monitoring bracelet 2 with a call function, the data collection end of the relevant sensor (for example: patch, electrode, etc.) can be reasonably distributed and fit on the relevant body parts of the patient. Among them, the sensor can be a contact or non-contact sensor. Further, when the sensor is installed on the wristband ring 22, the contact sensor is set at the bottom of the display 21 dial of the vital sign monitoring bracelet 2 with a call function and at a suitable position inside the wristband ring 22, and its patch (or electrode) leaks on the bottom outside of the display 21 dial of the vital sign monitoring bracelet 2 with a call function and the outside of the wristband ring 22, so as to contact the skin of various body parts such as the patient's wrist to collect life characteristics data. Among them, the non-contact sensor can be hidden in the middle of the wristband ring 22, and cooperate with the skin of the patient's wrist and other body parts through the wristband ring 22. For example, when setting up a pulse oximeter, a contact pulse oximeter can be set on the wristband ring 22 to detect the human pulse and blood oxygen signal. When the patient wears the vital sign monitoring bracelet 2 with a call function, the electrode of the contact pulse oximeter directly contacts the patient's skin to collect the human pulse blood oxygen signal. Other sensors can be arranged in the wristband ring 22 according to their specific usage.

[0041] In addition, the vital signs monitoring bracelet 2 with a call function also includes a control unit 23 to realize signal calculation and transmission control. The control unit 23 is a single-chip microcomputer, specifically, an STM32 single-chip microcomputer can be selected. The output end of the sensor involved in the above-mentioned vital signs acquisition unit 25 is connected to the input end of the STM32 single-chip microcomputer, and the sensor transmits the collected analog signals of human body surface temperature, heart rate, pulse blood oxygen, etc. to the single-chip microcomputer, and the single-chip microcomputer converts the received analog signal into a digital signal, and controls the display 21 to display. At the same time, the patient's vital signs data will also be transmitted to the central dispatching equipment in places such as the hospital duty room or the nurse station through the wireless communication module 24, so as to timely feedback the patient information to the corresponding medical staff or department.

[0042] It should be pointed out that, in this embodiment, although the related single chip microcomputer used needs to cooperate with software to work, the required software is all existing mature software and there is no need to improve the program.

[0043] In addition, the control unit 23, wireless communication module 24 and other components are integrated at a suitable position below the display 21 of the vital sign monitoring bracelet 2 with a calling function according to actual design requirements.

[0044] In addition, in order to maintain the normal operation of the vital sign monitoring wristband 2 with a call function, the vital sign monitoring wristband 2 with a call function further includes a power module 27 and a charging management unit 28, and the power module 27 and the charging management unit 28 are electrically connected to the control unit 23. At the same time, in order to facilitate the patient to understand his or her physical condition in real time when going out for activities, the vital sign monitoring wristband 2 with a call function further includes a display 21, which is electrically connected to the control unit 23 and is used to display the collected vital sign data of the patient in real time.

[0045] Further, in order to better connect the above-mentioned vital sign monitoring bracelet 2 with the existing bedside bell device in the hospital, see Figure 3 and Figure 4 A preferred way is to structurally detachably connect the vital sign monitoring bracelet 2 with a calling function to the bedside device 1 of the existing bedside bell device in the hospital. The existing bedside bell device in the hospital generally includes a bedside device 1 and a pager connected to the bedside device 1 by wire. In this embodiment, in order to realize the detachable connection between the vital sign monitoring bracelet 2 with a calling function and the bedside device 1, the bedside device 1 is structurally configured to include a base 11 and a connecting device 12 fixed to the base 11, and the vital sign monitoring bracelet 2 with a calling function is structurally detachably connected to the bedside device 1 through the connecting device 12. At the same time, the vital sign monitoring bracelet 2 with a calling function and the bedside device 1 are numbered to ensure a one-to-one correspondence between the two to avoid loss of the bracelet.

[0046] Preferably, in order to facilitate the patient to disassemble and install the vital sign monitoring bracelet 2 with a call function, the above-mentioned connecting device 12 includes but is not limited to a clamping arm, a suction cup, a magnetic seat, a buckle, etc. In a preferred manner of this embodiment, the connecting device 12 is a clamping arm, and the clamping arm supports an automatic clamping function. When the vital sign monitoring bracelet 2 with a call function is placed in the clamping arm, the clamping arm will automatically clamp to prevent the vital sign monitoring bracelet 2 with a call function from slipping. This process is similar to the process of clamping a mobile phone by a car-mounted mobile phone holder.

[0047] Furthermore, in order for the accompanying family members in the ward to know the real-time location and condition of the patient in time when the patient leaves the ward, a more preferred method is to use the wireless communication module 24 of the vital sign monitoring bracelet 2 with a calling function to establish a wireless communication connection between the vital sign monitoring bracelet 2 with a calling function and the bedside device 1 of the existing bedside bell device in the hospital, so as to receive the patient's operation instructions and control the bedside device 1 to perform the actions corresponding to the calling and talking functions. More preferably, a talking unit 13 is also provided on the base 11, wherein the talking unit 13 includes a speaker and a microphone, has talking and voice broadcasting functions, and can play the patient's location information, vital sign data information, and calling signals through the bedside device 1, so that the family members of the patient in the ward can timely grasp the patient's real-time condition.

[0048] In addition, see Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 When the vital sign monitoring bracelet 2 with a calling function is not disassembled, it can also be used as a calling button. The patient presses the call button 210 on the vital sign monitoring bracelet 2 with a calling function, and then cooperates with the base 11 of the bedside device 1 to indirectly realize the calling and talking functions, and establish a connection with the hospital duty room or the nurse station.

[0049] In this way, the vital sign monitoring bracelet 2 with a calling function is detachably mounted on the base 11 of the bedside device 1 through the connecting device 12. The patient can flexibly disassemble and install the vital sign monitoring bracelet 2 with a calling function according to his or her own needs, making the traditional bedside call bell device more convenient to carry and use.

[0050] It should be noted that the vital sign monitoring bracelet 2 with calling function can also be detachably installed at a suitable position on the ward wall or bed through the connecting device 12, and is not limited to being installed on the base 11 of the bedside device 1 of the traditional bedside call bell device through the connecting device 12.
