Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present disclosure relates to a drug solution administration system and an information processing method. [Background technology]

[0002] Conventionally, systems for administering a medicinal liquid to a patient have been known. For example, Japanese Patent Laid-Open Publication No. 2003-225305 (Patent Document 1) discloses an infusion system as such a system, which includes a server, a mobile terminal, an automatic infusion device for administering an infusion to a patient, a wristband worn by the patient, and a label attached to an infusion bag filled with the infusion.

[0003] More specifically, a barcode representing a patient ID is printed on the wristband. A barcode including an order ID is printed on the label. The server stores infusion order information. The infusion order information includes a patient ID assigned to each patient, an order ID assigned to the infusion to be administered to the patient based on an instruction sheet created by a doctor, and information about the contents of the infusion other than the patient ID and the order ID.

[0004] The mobile terminal acquires a patient ID and an order ID by reading the barcode on the wristband and the barcode on the label with a barcode reader attached to the mobile terminal. The mobile terminal searches for specific infusion order information having both the acquired patient ID and order ID, and acquires the searched specific infusion order information from a server. A control device provided in the automatic infusion device controls the automatic infusion device so that an infusion can be started only when the specific infusion order information associated with the mobile terminal is searched for. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0005] [Patent Document 1] JP 2003-225305 A Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0006] As described above, the label is attached to the IV bag. Therefore, the label is prone to wrinkles. Therefore, when reading the barcode printed on the label, reading errors are more likely to occur than when reading a barcode printed on a wristband.

[0007] If the barcode printed on the label cannot be read, the mobile terminal (terminal device) cannot obtain the order ID. In such a case, the mobile terminal cannot obtain the infusion order information (order information) from the server.

[0008] The present disclosure provides a medicinal solution administration system and an information processing method that enable a terminal device to acquire order information from a server device even when the terminal device cannot acquire an order ID by scanning a barcode. [Means for solving the problem]

[0009] According to an aspect of the present disclosure, a medicinal liquid administration system includes a server device, a terminal device that communicates with the server device, and a medicinal liquid administration pump that communicates with the terminal device. The server device stores a plurality of order information, each of which includes a prescription order for an injection for a patient. Each of the order information further includes first patient identification information that identifies a patient. When the terminal device acquires the second patient identification information, the terminal device transmits the second patient identification information to the server device. When the server device receives the second patient identification information from the terminal device, the server device extracts a plurality of order information including first patient identification information that matches the second patient identification information from among the plurality of order information. The server device transmits each of the extracted order information to the terminal device. The terminal device displays each of the order information received from the server device in a selectable manner. When the terminal device accepts a first operation for selecting one of the displayed order information and a second operation for transmitting the selected order information, the terminal device transmits the selected order information to the medicinal liquid administration pump.

[0010] According to another aspect of the present disclosure, an information processing method includes a step of storing a plurality of order information, each of which includes a prescription order for an injection for a patient, in a server device. Each order information further includes first patient identification information for identifying a patient. The information processing method further includes a step of transmitting the second patient identification information to the server device when a terminal device capable of communicating with the server device acquires the second patient identification information, a step of extracting a plurality of order information including the first patient identification information that matches the second patient identification information from the plurality of order information when the server device receives the second patient identification information from the terminal device, and a step of transmitting each of the extracted order information to the terminal device, a step of displaying each of the order information received from the server device in a selectable manner by the terminal device, and a step of transmitting the selected order information to a liquid administration pump when the terminal device accepts an operation of selecting one of the displayed order information and an operation of transmitting the selected order information by the terminal device. Effect of the Invention

[0011] According to the present disclosure, even if the terminal device cannot acquire the order ID by scanning a barcode, the terminal device can acquire the order information from the server device. [Brief description of the drawings]

[0013] Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present disclosure will be described with reference to the drawings. In the following description, the same members are denoted by the same reference numerals. Their names and functions are also the same. Therefore, detailed description thereof will not be repeated.

[0014] Fig. 1 is a diagram showing the configuration of a medical system including a medicinal liquid administration system. As shown in Fig. 1, the medical system 1 includes a medicinal liquid administration system 5, a server 10 that records electronic medical records, a pharmacy department server 20, and a monitoring terminal 60. The medicinal liquid administration system 5 includes a server 30, a smartphone 40 as an example of a terminal device, and an infusion pump 50 as an example of a medicinal liquid administration pump.

[0015] The terminal device is not limited to the smartphone 40, but may be a portable device (mobile terminal device) such as a tablet terminal. The liquid administration pump is not limited to the infusion pump 50, but may be another pump such as a syringe pump. In this example, the monitoring terminal 60 is a PC (Personal Computer).

[0016] The smartphone 40 can also function as a terminal for monitoring the condition. Although only one infusion pump 50 is shown in Fig. 1, the liquid administration system 5 may include a plurality of liquid administration pumps.

[0017] The server 30 is communicatively connected to the servers 10, 20, and the monitoring terminal 60. Typically, the server 30 is connected to the servers 10, 20, and the monitoring terminal 60 by wires. The server 10 is communicatively connected to the server 20. Typically, the server 10 is connected to the server 20 by wires. Note that the server 30 may be communicatively connected to the monitoring terminal 60 wirelessly.

[0018] The server 30 is configured to be able to communicate with the smartphone 40 and the infusion pump 50. Typically, the server 30 can establish communication between the smartphone 40 and the infusion pump 50 via a wireless local area network (LAN).

[0019] The smartphone 40 communicates with the infusion pump 50. The smartphone 40 communicates wirelessly with the infusion pump. The smartphone 40 communicates with the infusion pump 50 via near field communication (NFC). In this example, the smartphone 40 communicates with the infusion pump 50 via Felica (registered trademark), which is a Type-F of NFC.

[0020] The smartphone 40 has a built-in reader / writer for Felica. The reader / writer has a control board and an antenna. The infusion pump 50 is equipped with Felica Link. The infusion pump 50 has a built-in contactless integrated circuit card for Felica (FeliCa Plug). The contactless integrated circuit card has an integrated circuit chip and an antenna. In the following, the contactless integrated circuit card is also referred to as a "contactless IC card."

[0021] In this example, by bringing the smartphone 40 operating as a reader / writer close to the infusion pump 50 operating as a tag, short-range wireless communication is performed between the smartphone 40 and the infusion pump 50. The reason why the smartphone 40, rather than the infusion pump 50, has a built-in reader / writer is because it is assumed that the smartphone 40 will also perform short-range wireless communication with a plurality of other pumps (not shown) in the same manner as with the infusion pump 50.

[0022] The server 10 prestores staff master data that stores personal information of each staff member (hereinafter referred to as "staff") belonging to the hospital, such as nurses, and patient master data that stores personal information of each patient. The staff master data and the patient master data are updated successively. The server 10 transmits the staff master data and the patient master data to the server 30. The server 10 typically transmits the staff master data and the patient master data to the server 30 in response to a request from the server 30 or based on the fact that the above-mentioned updates have been made.

[0023] When the server 10 acquires order information including a prescription order for an injection for a patient created by a doctor, the server records the received order information in the electronic medical record of the patient. The prescription order is created using a terminal (not shown) used by the doctor. During one treatment, the doctor creates a prescription order for each medicinal liquid. Therefore, when multiple medicinal liquids are administered to one patient, multiple pieces of order information are created and recorded in the electronic medical record.

[0024] The server 20 stores drug library data in advance. The server 20 transmits the drug library data to the server 30. When the drug library is updated in the server 20, the server 20 transmits update data for updating the drug library of the server 30 to the server 30. The server 20 may transmit the updated drug library data itself as the update data, or may transmit data of only the updated parts.

[0025] Server 20 acquires order information of a specified patient from server 10 based on an input operation by a pharmacist or the like. Server 20 transmits order information of a patient about to start treatment (hereinafter also referred to as a "target patient") to server 30. Servers 10 and 20 may handle multiple pieces of order information of the target patient as one list information. Staff in the pharmacy department judge whether the order information acquired by server 20 from server 10 is appropriate.

[0026] Fig. 2 is a diagram for explaining information stored in the server 30. As shown in Fig. 2, the server 30 includes a control unit 31 and a storage unit 32. The control unit 31 is a functional block realized by a processor executing an operating system and various programs stored in the storage unit 32. The storage unit 32 is specifically a memory. The memory includes a volatile memory and a non-volatile memory.

[0027] 1, the storage unit 32 of the server 30 stores staff master data, patient master data, the latest drug library data, and a plurality of pieces of order information #1, #2, ... #N. Each piece of order information #1, #2, ... #N includes information such as an order ID for identifying the order information, a patient ID for identifying the patient, the name of the drug (drug name, drug solution name) contained in the drug solution administered to the patient by injection, a drug ID for identifying the drug, a set value of the drug solution flow rate (mL / h), a set value of the dosage (mL), etc. Furthermore, the order information includes information such as the scheduled date and time of administration, the date and time of order creation, etc.

[0028] When multiple medicinal liquids are administered to the same patient at the same time, multiple order information (e.g., order information #1, #2) are prepared for the patient. In this case, the same patient ID is associated with different order IDs. Server 30 also stores past order information that has already been used as history.

[0029] The drug library data stores at least a flow rate (mL / h) threshold, a dosage (mL) threshold, and an administration rate (μg / kg / min) threshold in association with a drug name or drug ID. The dosage is also called a "scheduled amount."

[0030] The flow rate threshold includes an upper flow rate limit and a lower flow rate limit. The dosage threshold includes an upper dosage limit and a lower dosage limit. The administration rate threshold includes an upper administration rate limit and a lower administration rate limit. Note that the drug library data does not necessarily need to store all of the upper and lower limits for each drug solution.

[0031] Fig. 3 is a diagram showing an example of a drug label. As shown in Fig. 3, information such as the patient ID, name, age, and barcode 821 is printed on the drug label 820 of the target patient. The order ID is expressed (written) in the barcode 821. Furthermore, the order ID is written in numbers or the like (in the example of Fig. 6, "3000055040671010100") below the barcode 821 so that it can be read by staff.

[0032] Next, data transmission and reception within the drug solution administration system 5 shown in Fig. 1 will be described with reference to Fig. 1 and Fig. 4 to Fig. 7. Fig. 4 is a diagram showing the first half of the screen transition of the smartphone 40. Fig. 5 is a diagram showing the second half of the screen transition of the smartphone 40.

[0033] With reference to Fig. 4, when the smartphone 40 starts a predetermined application program by an operation of a staff member, the smartphone 40 displays a screen G41 on the touch screen 43 as shown in state (A) of Fig. 4. The screen G41 is a login screen. The screen G41 includes an image object 471. Note that in this example, the application program has a function of reading one-dimensional codes (i.e., barcodes) and two-dimensional codes such as QR codes (registered trademark).

[0034] When the staff member selects image object 471 with the fingers of his / her hand 901, reading of the barcode using the camera is started. For example, the staff member uses the camera of smartphone 40 to capture an image of the barcode on a name tag worn by the staff member. The barcode has a staff ID written on it. In this manner, the staff ID is read by smartphone 40.

[0035] After the smartphone 40 reads the barcode, the staff member inputs a password into the smartphone 40. The staff member then selects a specific image object, which causes the smartphone 40 to transmit the staff member ID and password to the server 30. Through this process, the server 30 authenticates the staff member using the staff master data.

[0036] When the staff member is authenticated, the smartphone 40 displays a screen G42 on the touch screen 43 as shown in state (B). The screen G42 is a menu screen. The screen G42 includes image objects 472, 473, 474, and 475.

[0037] The image object 472 is an object for transitioning to a vital sign management screen. The image object 473 is an object for transitioning to an order transfer screen. The image object 474 is an object for transitioning to a monitoring device registration screen (i.e., monitoring device registration). The image object 475 is an object for transitioning to a screen showing a list of registered monitoring devices.

[0038] When the staff member selects image object 473 with his / her finger, the smartphone 40 displays screen G43 on the touch screen 43 as shown in state (C). Screen G43 and screens G44 to G46 described below are screens for transferring order information. Screen G43 includes image objects 476, 477, and 487. In state (C), of image objects 476, 477, and 487, only image object 476 is selectable. Image object 476 is an object for transitioning to a selection process (reading process) of a patient ID.

[0039] When the staff member selects the image object 476 with his / her finger, the smartphone 40 starts reading the barcode using the camera. The staff member captures an image of the barcode on the wristband attached to the wrist of the target patient with the camera of the smartphone 40. The patient ID is written on the barcode.

[0040] Fig. 6 is a diagram showing reading of a wristband by smartphone 40. As shown in Fig. 6, information such as the name, date of birth, blood type, and barcode 811 is printed on wristband 810 wrapped around wrist 951 of a subject patient. Staff reads barcode 811 using smartphone 40. Barcode 811 indicates (describes) the patient ID. In this manner, the patient ID is read by smartphone 40.

[0041] When the smartphone 40 reads the barcode 811, it transmits the patient ID to the server 30. Typically, the smartphone 40 transmits the patient ID to the server 30 via wireless LAN after confirmation input by a staff member (selection of an image object such as a send button). That is, the smartphone 40 transmits "(i) Patient ID" shown in FIG. 1 to the server 30.

[0042] When the smartphone 40 transmits the patient ID to the server 30, authentication is performed by the server 30 using the patient ID, and the smartphone 40 displays a screen G44 on the touch screen 43 as shown in state (D) of Fig. 4. The screen G44 includes an image object 478, an image object 477, and an image object 487. In state (D), unlike state (C), the image objects 477 and 487 are selectable.

[0043] The image object 478 indicates the patient ID obtained by reading the barcode 811. Note that the patient ID can be reset by selecting a reset button 4781 in the object 478.

[0044] 5, state (E1) shows a state in which a staff member has selected image object 477 on screen G44. State (E2) shows a state in which a staff member has selected image object 487 on screen G44.

[0045] In the following, first, a process when the image object 477 is selected will be described. Then, a process when the image object 487 is selected will be described. Although details will be described later, typically, the staff member prioritizes the selection of the image object 477 over the selection of the image object 487.

[0046] When the staff member selects image object 477 with his / her finger, smartphone 40 resumes reading the barcode using the camera. The staff member uses the camera of smartphone 40 to capture an image of barcode 821 printed on the drug label 820 (FIG. 3) of the target patient. The barcode 821 contains an order ID. Therefore, the order ID is read by smartphone 40.

[0047] When the smartphone 40 reads the barcode 821, it transmits the order ID to the server 30. Typically, the smartphone 40 transmits the order ID to the server 30 via wireless LAN after confirmation input by the staff member (selection of an image object such as a send button).

[0048] When the server 30 acquires the patient ID and the order ID from the smartphone 40, the server 30 executes the following process. The server 30 extracts order information including an order ID that matches the order ID sent from the smartphone 40 from among the multiple order information #1, #2, ..., #3 stored in the storage unit 32 (FIG. 2). That is, the server 30 extracts order information including an order ID that matches the order ID obtained by reading the barcode 821 of the medicine label 820 by the smartphone 40 from among the multiple order information #1, #2, ..., #3. Note that since there are no duplicate order IDs, the server 30 extracts one order information.

[0049] Next, the server 30 determines whether or not the patient ID (see FIG. 2) included in the extracted order information matches the patient ID sent from the smartphone 40. In other words, the server 30 determines whether or not the patient ID included in the extracted order information matches the patient ID obtained by reading the barcode 811 of the wristband 810 by the smartphone 40.

[0050] If it is determined that the patient IDs match, the server 30 transmits the extracted order information to the smartphone 40. Specifically, the server 30 transmits the extracted order information to the smartphone 40 by using communication via wireless LAN.

[0051] If the server 30 determines that the patient IDs do not match, it does not transmit the extracted order information to the smartphone 40. In this case, typically, the server 30 transmits information indicating an error or a warning to the smartphone 40.

[0052] When the smartphone 40 acquires (receives) the order information from the server 30, as shown in state (G) of FIG. 4, the smartphone 40 displays a screen G46 on the touch screen 43. The screen G46 includes an image object 478, an image object 480, and an image object 481.

[0053] Image object 480 shows the order information (excluding the patient ID) obtained from server 30. Staff can confirm the prescription order for injections for the target patient by visually checking the order information included in image object 480. Note that the order information can be reset (changed) by selecting a reset button 4801 in image object 480.

[0054] The image object 481 is an object for accepting the start of order transfer. When the staff member selects the image object 481 with his / her finger, the smartphone 40 switches the screen displayed on the touch screen 43 from screen G46 to screen G47 as shown in state (H) of FIG. 4, and prepares for short-range wireless communication with the infusion pump 50.

[0055] The screen G47 includes an image object 478, an image object 480, and an image object 482. The image object 482 includes a guidance display that prompts the staff to bring the smartphone 40 closer to the infusion pump 50. The image object 482 further includes a cancel button 4821 for canceling the transfer of the order information to the infusion pump 50. When the cancel button 4821 is selected by the staff, the smartphone 40 switches the screen from the screen G47 to the screen G46, for example.

[0056] When the staff brings the smartphone 40 close to the infusion pump 50, short-range wireless communication is established between the smartphone 40 and the infusion pump 50. In more detail, when the staff holds the smartphone 40 over a FeliCa mark 590 (see FIG. 7 ) printed on the surface of the infusion pump 50, short-range wireless communication is established between the smartphone 40 and the infusion pump 50. When short-range wireless communication is established, the smartphone 40 transmits order information to the infusion pump 50. That is, the smartphone 40 transfers the order information acquired from the server 30 to the infusion pump 50.

[0057] However, since medicine label 820 is affixed to the medicine, it is prone to wrinkling. For this reason, reading errors are likely to occur when reading barcode 821 printed on medicine label 820. For example, reading barcode 821 is more likely to result in reading errors than reading barcode 811 printed on wristband 810 shown in FIG.

[0058] If the barcode 821 printed on the medicine label 820 cannot be read, the smartphone 40 cannot obtain the order ID. In such a case, the smartphone 40 cannot obtain the order information such as that shown in the image object 480 of the screen G46 from the server 30. In such a case, the staff member selects the image object 487 as shown in state (E2) of FIG. 5.

[0059] When the staff member selects the image object 487, the smartphone 40 transmits a predetermined command to the server 30. Specifically, the smartphone 40 requests the server 30 to transmit an order list. The order list includes multiple pieces of order information. Note that the order list may include only one piece of order information.

[0060] When the server 30 receives the above command while receiving the patient ID from the smartphone 40, the server 30 extracts, from among a plurality of pieces of pre-stored order information, order information including a patient ID that matches the patient ID received from the smartphone 40. Note that the server 30 may extract, from among the plurality of pieces of order information, order information including a patient ID that matches the patient ID received from the smartphone 40 before receiving the above command.

[0061] When there is a plurality of pieces of order information including a patient ID that matches the patient ID received from the smartphone 40, the server 30 extracts the plurality of pieces of order information. When there is only one piece of order information including a patient ID that matches the patient ID received from the smartphone 40, the server 30 extracts the one piece of order information. The server 30 transmits each piece of extracted order information to the smartphone 40. That is, the server 30 transmits "(ii) Order List" shown in FIG. 1 to the smartphone 40.

[0062] When the smartphone 40 acquires the order list, as shown in state (F), the smartphone 40 displays a screen G45 on the touch screen 43. The screen G45 includes an image object 478 and an image object 488.

[0063] The image object 488 is a list of order information. The image object 488 includes a plurality of image objects 4881, 4882, 4883, ... each of which indicates order information. In this manner, in the list, each piece of order information is displayed as an image object 4881, 4882, 4883, .... Note that each of the image objects 4881, 4882, 4883, ... is an item in the list. Each of the image objects 4881, 4882, 4883, ... can be selected by a touch operation by the staff member.

[0064] In this way, the smartphone 40 displays each piece of order information received from the server 30 in a selectable manner. Specifically, the smartphone 40 displays each piece of order information received from the server 30 in the form of a list on the touch screen 43 (more specifically, a display) in a selectable manner. More specifically, the smartphone 40 sorts each piece of order information in order of the scheduled date and time of administration of the medicinal liquid closest to the current date and time, and displays the order information in a selectable manner on the touch screen 43. This sorting allows the staff to select the order information more easily than if it was not sorted.

[0065] Each of the image objects 4881, 4882, 4883, ... includes an order ID, a drug name, and a scheduled administration date and time of the medicinal liquid. Therefore, the staff can select one image object from among the image objects 4881, 4882, 4883, ... by comparing each notation on the drug label 820 shown in Fig. 3 with each of the image objects 4881, 4882, 4883, .... In other words, the staff can appropriately select order information for the drug to be administered to the target patient on the screen G45.

[0066] When the staff member selects the image object 4881, the smartphone 40 displays a screen G46 on the touch screen 43 as shown in state (G). That is, when the staff member selects an item in the list, the smartphone 40 displays details of the selected item (image object, order information) on the touch screen 43. Specifically, the smartphone 40 displays various information included in the order information (excluding the patient ID) on the touch screen 43. In this example, the smartphone 40 illustrates the set value of the dosage of the medicinal liquid and the set value of the flow rate of the medicinal liquid. The staff member can view information other than each set value by scrolling the screen.

[0067] Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 1 as "(iii) Selection of order information," when the staff member selects the image object 481, the smartphone 40 displays a screen G47 on the touch screen 43 as shown in state (H). This causes the smartphone 40 to prepare for short-range wireless communication with the infusion pump 50. As described above, when the staff member brings the smartphone 40 close to the infusion pump 50, short-range wireless communication is established between the smartphone 40 and the infusion pump 50.

[0068] As described above, when the smartphone 40 receives an operation of selecting one piece of order information from among the pieces of order information displayed on the touch screen 43 (for example, a touch operation of selecting image object 4881) and an operation of transmitting the selected order information (specifically, a touch operation of selecting image object 481), the smartphone 40 transmits the selected order information to the infusion pump 50, as shown as “(iv) Order information” in FIG. 1.

[0069] According to such a medicinal solution administration system 5, even if the barcode 821 of the medicine label 820 cannot be read, the order list of the target patient can be obtained from the server 30. Furthermore, the staff can select the order information for the medicine label 820 by comparing the medicine label 820 with the order list. As a result, it becomes possible to transmit the appropriate order information from the smartphone 40 to the infusion pump 50.

[0070] Fig. 7 is a diagram showing the states of the smartphone 40 and the infusion pump 50 immediately after the transfer of the order information is completed. As shown in Fig. 7, the smartphone 40 switches the screen of the touch screen 43 from screen G47 to screen G48. Screen G48 includes an image object 483 and an image object 484.

[0071] The image object 483 indicates that the transfer of the order information has been completed. The image object 483 further includes a notification urging the staff member to press a setting completion button represented as an image object 484 and to press a start button 591 of the infusion pump 50 after pressing the setting completion button. When the staff member presses the setting completion button, for example, the smartphone 40 switches the screen from screen G48 to screen G42 (FIG. 4).

[0072] The infusion pump 50 includes a display 55. When the infusion pump 50 receives order information from the smartphone 40, the infusion pump 50 displays a screen G51 on the display 55. The screen G51 includes information that the operation of the infusion pump 50 is stopped. The screen G51 further includes information on the drug name, planned amount, and flow rate included in the order information. The screen G51 includes an item for the accumulated amount.

[0091] <Summary> The following is a brief summary of the medicinal liquid administration system 5. In more detail, as shown in state (E) of FIG. 5, the data processing for the situation in which the image object 487 of "obtain order list" is selected will be summarized.

[0092] (1) As shown in Fig. 1, the medicinal solution administration system 5 includes a server 30, a smartphone 40 that communicates with the server 30, and an infusion pump 50 that communicates with the smartphone 40. As shown in Fig. 2, the server 30 stores a plurality of order information #1, #2, ... #N, each of which includes a prescription order for an injection for a patient. As shown in Fig. 2, each order information further includes a patient ID (first patient identification information) that identifies the patient.

[0093] The smartphone 40 obtains a patient ID (second patient identification information) by scanning the barcode 811 (code) printed on the patient's wristband 810 as shown in FIG. 6 using the scanner 44 (FIG. 8), and then transmits the patient ID to the server 30.

[0094] When the server 30 receives the patient ID from the smartphone 40, in one aspect, the server 30 extracts, from among the plurality of order information #1, #2, ... #N, a plurality of pieces of order information including a patient ID that matches the patient ID received from the smartphone 40. The server 30 transmits each of the extracted order information to the smartphone 40.

[0095] The smartphone 40 displays each piece of order information received from the server 30 in a selectable manner. Upon receiving an operation (first operation) of selecting one piece of order information from the displayed pieces of order information and an operation (second operation) of transmitting the selected order information, the smartphone 40 transmits the selected order information to the infusion pump 50.

[0096] According to this configuration, as described above, even if the barcode 821 of the medicine label 820 cannot be read, multiple pieces of order information for the target patient can be obtained from the server 30. Therefore, the staff can select to transmit the order information for the medicine label 820 to the infusion pump 50 by comparing the medicine label 820 with the order list. As a result, it becomes possible to transmit appropriate order information from the smartphone 40 to the infusion pump 50.

[0097] (2) The smartphone 40 has a display 431. The smartphone 40 displays each piece of order information received from the server 30 in a selectable list format on the display 431. This configuration makes it easier for the staff to select order information compared to a configuration in which each piece of order information is not displayed in a list format.

[0098] (3) As shown in Fig. 2, each piece of order information further includes an order ID for identifying the order information. As shown in state (F) of Fig. 5, in the list, each piece of order information is displayed as selectable image objects 4881, 4882, 4883, .... As shown in state (F) of Fig. 5, each image object includes a representation of the order ID. With this configuration, the staff can select appropriate order information (image object) from the list by comparing the order ID of each image object with the order ID printed on the medication label 820.

[0099] (4) Each piece of order information further includes the name of the drug contained in the medicinal liquid to be administered to the patient by injection, as shown in Fig. 2. As shown in state (F) in Fig. 5, each of image objects 4881, 4882, 4883, ... further includes a representation of the drug name. With this configuration, the staff can select appropriate order information (image object) from the list by comparing the drug name of each image object with the drug name printed on the drug label 820.

[0100] (5) Each order information further includes a scheduled administration date and time of the medicinal liquid to be administered to the patient by injection. As shown in state (F) of FIG. 5, each image object 4881, 4882, 4883, ... further includes a notation of the scheduled administration date and time. With this configuration, the staff can select appropriate order information (image object) from the list by comparing the scheduled administration date and time of each image object with the scheduled administration date and time printed on the medicine label 820.

[0101] (6) The order information further includes a set value for the dosage of the medicinal liquid to be administered to the patient by injection and a set value for the flow rate of the medicinal liquid. An operation (first operation) of selecting one piece of order information from among the displayed pieces of order information is an operation of selecting one image object from among multiple image objects. When the smartphone 40 accepts this operation, it displays on the display 431 each of the above-mentioned set values ​​included in the order information indicated by the image object selected by this operation, as shown in state (G) of FIG. 5.

[0102] According to this configuration, the staff member can check the details of the selected order information by selecting one of the order information. If the order information includes only one of the set value of the dosage of the medicinal liquid and the set value of the flow rate of the medicinal liquid, the smartphone 40 may display only one of them.

[0103] <Modification> (1) The order information extraction process by the server 30 may be as follows: When the server 30 receives a patient ID from the smartphone 40, the server 30 may extract, from among the plurality of order information #1, #2, ... #N, a plurality of pieces of order information that include a patient ID that matches the patient ID received from the smartphone 40 and whose scheduled administration date and time described above is within a predetermined time from the current date and time.

[0104] According to such a configuration, the server 30 does not extract order information whose scheduled administration date and time is earlier than the current date and time. The server 30 also does not extract order information whose scheduled administration date and time is a predetermined time or more later than the current date and time. In this way, the server 30 narrows down the order information to be extracted using the scheduled administration date and time. This allows the staff member to select appropriate order information from the list on the smartphone 40 more easily than in a configuration in which narrowing down is not performed. In the above, it is preferable that the server 30 does not extract order information whose scheduled administration date and time is set to the next day.

[0105] (2) In the above, the order information is displayed in list form, but it does not necessarily have to be displayed in list form.

[0106] (3) Even when a medicine label without a barcode is used for treatment, the smartphone 40 can obtain order information from the server 30 by the process of obtaining an order list shown in state (E2) of FIG.

[0107] (4) In the above, an example was given of a configuration that uses the order ID printed on the medicine label 820, but the present invention is not limited to this. Instead of the medicine label 820, an injection prescription on which the order ID is written as a barcode and numbers, etc. may be used.

[0108] (5) In the above, an example has been described in which the smartphone 40 acquires the staff ID and the patient ID by scanning each barcode with the smartphone 40. However, this is not limited to this. The staff member may manually input the staff ID and the patient ID into the smartphone 40, so that the smartphone 40 acquires these IDs.

[0109] If the staff member remembers his / her staff ID, he / she can input the staff ID into the smartphone 40 based on the memory. Usually, the staff member has a staff ID attached to the name tag that he / she wears. Therefore, if the staff member forgets his / her staff ID, he / she can check his / her name tag and input his / her staff ID into the smartphone 40.

[0110] As shown in Fig. 6, the patient ID is written on the wristband 810 in numbers or the like ("00000045" in the example of Fig. 6) so that the staff can read it. The staff may input the numbers or the like into the smartphone 40. By performing such an operation, the smartphone 40 can obtain the patient ID.

[0111] The embodiments disclosed herein should be considered to be illustrative and not restrictive in all respects. The scope of the present disclosure is defined by the scope of the claims, and it is intended to include all modifications within the scope and meaning equivalent to the scope of the claims.
