Abstract
Description
[Technical field]
[0001] The present disclosure relates to a drug solution administration system, an information processing device, and a control method. [Background technology]
[0002] Conventionally, in hospitals and the like, liquid medicine administration pumps such as infusion pumps and syringe pumps are used. Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open Publication No. 2011-87678 (Patent Document 1) discloses an infusion pump in which a portable setting terminal having an operation unit for setting designated values of a planned amount and a flow rate and a memory unit for storing command values set by the operation unit is provided separately from the pump body. A command value receiver (reader) for short-distance wireless communication with the setting terminal is provided on the top surface of the pump body. When the setting terminal is held over the command value receiver, the designated values of the planned amount and flow rate stored in the memory unit of the setting terminal are read into the pump body. The pump body performs pumping according to the read designated values of the planned amount and flow rate. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]
[0003] [Patent Document 1] JP 2011-87678 A Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]
[0004] A doctor typically gives an order for an injection prescription to a nurse. Based on the order, the nurse manually inputs values such as flow rate into a liquid administration pump. In the case of Patent Document 1, the nurse first uses an operation unit of a portable setting terminal to input the doctor's order (specifically, the designated values for flow rate and planned amount) into the portable setting terminal.
[0005] An order from a doctor does not necessarily include a flow rate and a scheduled amount. An order from a doctor may be only a flow rate, or may be a scheduled amount and a scheduled time for administration of the medicinal liquid. In Patent Document 1, when an order is for a scheduled amount and a scheduled time, a nurse must calculate the flow rate by dividing the scheduled amount by the scheduled time.
[0006] In this way, if the order can be easily input in the information processing device that sends the order to the drug solution administration pump when the doctor's order method differs, the convenience of the system consisting of the information processing device and the drug solution administration pump is improved.
[0007] The present disclosure provides a medical fluid administration system, an information processing device, and a control method that facilitate setting orders in a medical fluid administration pump. [Means for solving the problem]
[0008] According to an aspect of the present disclosure, a liquid medicine administration system includes a liquid medicine administration pump that administers a liquid medicine to a patient, and an information processing device capable of communicating with the liquid medicine administration pump. The liquid medicine administration pump has a first setting mode in which only the flow rate of the liquid medicine and a planned amount of the liquid medicine are set to administer the liquid medicine, and a second setting mode in which the liquid medicine is administered by setting both the flow rate and the planned amount. The information processing device has a first input mode corresponding to the first setting mode and second and third input modes corresponding to the second setting mode, each of which is selectable. In the first input mode, the information processing device accepts input of the flow rate. In the second input mode, the information processing device accepts input of the flow rate and the planned amount. In the third input mode, the information processing device accepts input of the planned amount and the planned time required for administration of the liquid medicine, and calculates the flow rate from the planned amount and the planned time. In the first input mode, the information processing device transmits the flow rate to the liquid medicine administration pump. In the second and third input modes, the information processing device transmits the flow rate and the planned amount to the liquid medicine administration pump.
[0009] According to another aspect of the present disclosure, the information processing device is an information processing device constituting the drug solution administration system.
[0010] According to yet another aspect of the present disclosure, a control method is implemented in an information processing device capable of communicating with a liquid administration pump that administers a liquid to a patient. The liquid administration pump has a first setting mode in which only the flow rate of the liquid and a planned amount of the liquid are set to administer the liquid, and a second setting mode in which both the flow rate and the planned amount are set to administer the liquid.
[0011] The control method includes a step in which the information processing device accepts an operation to select one of a first input mode corresponding to a first setting mode and second and third input modes corresponding to a second setting mode; a step in which the information processing device accepts an input of a flow rate and transmits the flow rate to a liquid drug administration pump based on the first input mode being selected; a step in which the information processing device accepts an input of a flow rate and a planned amount and transmits the flow rate and the planned amount to the liquid drug administration pump based on the second input mode being selected; and a step in which the information processing device accepts an input of the planned amount and a planned time for administration of the liquid drug, calculates a flow rate from the planned amount and the planned time, and transmits the flow rate and the planned amount to the liquid drug administration pump based on the third input mode being selected. Effect of the Invention
[0012] Based on the above, setting of orders in the liquid medicine administration pump becomes easy. [Brief description of the drawings]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
[0014] 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.
[0015] Fig. 1 is a diagram showing a configuration of a medicinal liquid administration system. As shown in Fig. 1, the medicinal liquid administration system 1 includes a smartphone 10 as an example of an information processing device, and an infusion pump 20 as an example of a medicinal liquid administration pump. The information processing device is not limited to the smartphone 10, but may be any portable device such as a tablet terminal. The medicinal liquid administration pump is not limited to an infusion pump, but may be another pump such as a syringe pump.
[0016] The smartphone 10 communicates with the infusion pump 20. The smartphone 10 performs wireless communication with the infusion pump. The smartphone 10 performs near field communication (NFC) with the infusion pump 20. In this example, the smartphone 10 communicates with the infusion pump 20 using Felica (registered trademark), which is a Type-F of NFC.
[0017] The smartphone 10 has a built-in reader / writer for Felica. The reader / writer has a control board and an antenna. The infusion pump 20 is equipped with Felica Link. The infusion pump 20 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.
[0018] In this example, by bringing the smartphone 10 operating as a reader / writer close to the infusion pump 20 operating as a tag, short-range wireless communication is performed between the smartphone 10 and the infusion pump 20. The reason why the smartphone 10, rather than the infusion pump 20, has a built-in reader / writer is that the smartphone 10 also performs short-range wireless communication with a plurality of other pumps (not shown) in the same way as the infusion pump 20.
[0019] The infusion pump 20 includes a plurality of operation buttons and a display 250. Each operation button is operated by a doctor, a nurse, or the like (hereinafter also referred to as a "healthcare professional"). In this example, the nurse operates the infusion pump 20 based on the doctor's instructions. For example, the operation buttons can be used to input various setting items such as the flow rate, planned amount, and accumulated amount of the medicinal liquid (infusion). The operation buttons can also be used to instruct the infusion pump 20 to start and end its operation.
[0020] Specifically, the infusion pump 20 includes, as examples of operation buttons, a start button 235, a stop / mute button 236, a menu button 237, a flow rate setting button 238, and a value setting button group 239. The value setting button group 239 includes a button for changing the hundreds digit, a button for changing the tens digit, and a button for changing the ones digit.
[0021] The smartphone 10 transmits the order information Q to the infusion pump 20 by the above-mentioned short-range wireless communication. In this example, the order information Q is either "flow rate" or "flow rate and planned amount." The order information Q is a frame (packet). The order information Q may be data called a segment, a datagram, or a message. The infusion pump 20 receives the order information Q.
[0022] Upon receiving the order information Q, the infusion pump 20 sets various setting items based on the order information Q. For example, the infusion pump 20 automatically sets the flow rate and the planned amount of the medicinal liquid.
[0023] Fig. 2 is a diagram for explaining the setting modes of the medicinal fluid in the infusion pump 20. As shown in Fig. 2, the infusion pump 20 has two setting modes #1 and #2.
[0024] Setting mode #1 is a mode in which only the flow rate is specified, out of the flow rate (mL / h) and the scheduled volume (mL). In setting mode #1, after start button 235 is pressed, infusion pump 20 administers the medicinal fluid to the patient at the specified flow rate until stop / mute button 236 is pressed.
[0025] Setting mode #2 is a mode in which the infusion pump 20 operates with both the flow rate (mL / h) and the planned amount (mL) specified. In setting mode #2, when the start button 235 is pressed, the infusion pump 20 administers the liquid medicine to the patient at the specified flow rate and the planned amount specified. The infusion pump 20 automatically stops administration when the administration of the planned amount of the liquid medicine is completed.
[0026] In this example, from the viewpoint of cooperation with the smartphone 10, each setting mode is associated with a setting mode ID (Identification). In this example, as an example, the setting mode #1 is associated with "M1" as the setting mode ID. Similarly, the setting mode #2 is associated with "M2" as the setting mode ID.
[0027] Fig. 3 is a diagram for explaining input modes in the smartphone 10. As shown in Fig. 3, the smartphone 10 has three input modes #1, #2, and #3.
[0028] Input mode #1 is a mode that accepts input of only the flow rate among the flow rate, scheduled volume, and scheduled time. In input mode #1, only input #1 of the two inputs #1 and #2 is accepted. In more detail, input mode #1 is a mode that corresponds to the above-mentioned setting mode #1 (FIG. 2). Input mode #1 is a mode in which information (specifically, the flow rate) required to set the operation of the infusion pump 20 in setting mode #1 is input.
[0029] Input mode #2 is a mode that accepts input of only the flow rate and the scheduled amount among the flow rate, the scheduled amount, and the scheduled time. More specifically, input mode #2 is a mode that corresponds to the setting mode #2 (FIG. 2) described above. Input mode #2 is a mode in which information (specifically, the flow rate and the scheduled amount) required for setting the operation of the infusion pump 20 in setting mode #2 is input.
[0030] Input mode #3 is a mode that accepts input of only the scheduled amount and the scheduled time among the flow rate, scheduled amount, and scheduled time. More specifically, input mode #3 is a mode that corresponds to setting mode #2, similar to input mode #2. Input mode #3 is a mode for inputting information (specifically, the scheduled amount and the scheduled time) used when setting the operation of the infusion pump 20 in setting mode #2.
[0031] In this example, from the viewpoint of cooperation with the infusion pump 20, each input mode is associated with a setting mode ID, similar to the setting modes #1 and #2 shown in Fig. 2. In this example, the setting mode ID "M1" is associated with the input mode #1, similar to the setting mode #1. The setting mode ID "M2" is associated with the input modes #2 and #3, similar to the setting mode #2.
[0032] 4 is a screen for explaining a user interface of the smartphone 10. As shown in FIG. 4, when the smartphone 10 accepts a predetermined operation, it displays a screen G1 on the touch screen 130. The screen G1 includes five image objects 301 to 305, each of which is selectable. The screen G1 is a user interface for inputting an order into the smartphone 10.
[0033] The image object 301 is for transitioning to a screen that accepts input of only the flow rate among the flow rate, scheduled volume, and scheduled time. More specifically, the image object 301 is for transitioning the input mode to the above-mentioned input mode #1.
[0034] The image object 302 is for transitioning to a screen that accepts input of only the flow rate and the scheduled amount among the flow rate, the scheduled amount, and the scheduled time. More specifically, the image object 302 is for transitioning the input mode to the above-mentioned input mode #2.
[0035] The image object 303 is for transitioning to a screen that accepts input of only the scheduled volume and the scheduled time among the flow rate, scheduled volume, and scheduled time. More specifically, the image object 303 is for transitioning the input mode to the above-mentioned input mode #3.
[0036] The image object 304 is for returning the screen displayed on the touch screen 130 from the screen G1 to the previous screen (not shown). The image object 305 becomes selectable on the condition that any one of the image objects 301 to 303 is in a selected state.
[0037] For example, when the image object 305 is selected after the image object 301 is selected, the smartphone 10 transitions the input mode to the above-mentioned input mode #1. Similarly, when the image object 302 (or 303) is selected after the image object 305 is selected, the smartphone 10 transitions the input mode to the above-mentioned input mode #2 (or #3).
[0038] Based on the order received from the doctor, the nurse selects one of the image objects 301 to 303. When only the flow rate is specified by the doctor, the nurse selects the image object 301. Next, the nurse selects the image object 305.
[0039] Similarly, when only the flow rate and the scheduled volume are specified by the doctor, the nurse selects image object 302 and also selects image object 305. When only the scheduled volume and the scheduled time are specified by the doctor, the nurse selects image object 303 and also selects image object 305.
[0040] Fig. 5 is a diagram for explaining input mode #1. State (A) of Fig. 5 shows a screen G21 displayed on the smartphone 10 based on the selection of the image object 305 after the image object 301 shown in Fig. 4 is selected. In this way, when the image object 305 is selected after the image object 301 is selected, the smartphone 10 transitions the screen displayed on the touch screen 130 from the screen G1 (Fig. 4) to the screen G21.
[0041] Screen G21 includes image objects 310, 314, and 315. Image object 310 functions as an interface for setting the flow rate. In this example, image object 310 includes image 311 indicating the current (in the process of being set) flow rate setting value, switch image group 312 for increasing each digit of the flow rate, and switch image group 313 for decreasing each digit of the flow rate. The nurse sets the flow rate value to the value (order value) instructed by the doctor by touching switch image group 312, 313.
[0042] The image object 314 is a button for switching the screen displayed on the touch screen 130 from the screen G21 to the screen G1 of Fig. 4. The image object 315 is a button for confirming the flow rate value set using the image object 310.
[0043] When the nurse selects the image object 315 after setting the flow rate, the smartphone 10 switches the screen displayed on the touch screen 130 from the screen G21 to the screen G22 shown in state (B).
[0044] The screen G22 includes an image object 316 indicating the confirmed flow rate value, and an image object 317 for transmitting order information. In this example, since the flow rate was set to 10 mL / h on the screen G21 in the state (A), the flow rate value is displayed as "10 mL / h" on the screen G22.
[0045] In this state, when the nurse selects the image object 317, a process is started for transmitting the order information (in this case, the flow rate value) to the infusion pump 20. In detail, when the nurse brings the smartphone 10 closer to the infusion pump 20, short-range wireless communication is performed between the smartphone 10 and the infusion pump 20 for transmitting the flow rate value (specified value) from the smartphone 10 to the infusion pump 20.
[0046] More specifically, when short-distance wireless communication is established, the smartphone 10 transmits the flow rate value and the setting mode ID "M1" shown in Fig. 3 to the infusion pump 20. The infusion pump 20 receives the flow rate value and the setting mode ID "M1" from the smartphone 10.
[0047] Fig. 6 is a diagram for explaining input mode #2. State (A) of Fig. 6 shows a screen G31 displayed on the smartphone 10 based on the selection of the image object 305 after the image object 302 shown in Fig. 4 is selected. In this way, when the image object 305 is selected after the image object 302 is selected, the smartphone 10 transitions the screen displayed on the touch screen 130 from the screen G1 (Fig. 4) to the screen G31.
[0048] The screen G31 includes an image object 320, an image object 314, and an image object 315. The image object 320 functions as an interface for setting the flow rate and the planned amount. In this example, the image object 320 includes an image 321 showing the current (in the process of being set) setting value of the flow rate, a group of switch images 322 for increasing the numbers of each digit of the flow rate, a group of switch images 323 for decreasing the numbers of each digit of the flow rate, an image 324 showing the current (in the process of being set) setting value of the planned amount, a group of switch images 325 for increasing the numbers of each digit of the planned amount, and a group of switch images 326 for decreasing the numbers of each digit of the planned amount.
[0049] The nurse sets the flow rate value to the value instructed by the doctor (order value) by touching switch image groups 322 and 323. The nurse sets the scheduled volume value to the value instructed by the doctor (order value) by touching switch image groups 325 and 326.
[0050] When the nurse selects image object 314, the smartphone 10 switches the screen displayed on the touch screen 130 from screen G31 to screen G1 of Fig. 4. When the nurse selects image object 315, the flow rate value and the planned volume value set using image object 320 are finalized. Furthermore, the smartphone 10 switches the screen displayed on the touch screen 130 from screen G31 to screen G32 shown in state (B).
[0051] The screen G32 includes an image object 327 indicating the determined flow rate value and the determined scheduled volume value, and an image object 317 for transmitting order information. In this example, since the flow rate and scheduled volume were set to 10 mL / h and 265 mL, respectively, on the screen G31 in state (A), the flow rate value is displayed as "10 mL / h" and the scheduled volume value is displayed as "265 mL" on the screen G32.
[0052] In this state, when the nurse selects the image object 317, a process is started for transmitting the order information (in this case, the flow rate value and the planned amount value) to the infusion pump 20. In detail, when the nurse brings the smartphone 10 closer to the infusion pump 20, short-range wireless communication is performed between the smartphone 10 and the infusion pump 20 for transmitting the flow rate value (designated value) and the planned amount value (designated value) from the smartphone 10 to the infusion pump 20.
[0053] More specifically, when short-distance wireless communication is established, the smartphone 10 transmits the flow rate and the planned amount, as well as the setting mode ID "M2" shown in Fig. 3, to the infusion pump 20. The infusion pump 20 receives the flow rate and the planned amount, as well as the setting mode ID "M2" from the smartphone 10.
[0054] Fig. 7 is a diagram for explaining input mode #3. State (A) of Fig. 7 shows a screen G41 displayed on the smartphone 10 based on the selection of the image object 305 after the image object 303 shown in Fig. 4 is selected. In this way, when the image object 305 is selected after the image object 303 is selected, the smartphone 10 transitions the screen displayed on the touch screen 130 from the screen G1 (Fig. 4) to the screen G41.
[0055] The screen G41 includes an image object 330, an image object 314, and an image object 315. The image object 330 functions as an interface for setting the scheduled amount and the scheduled time. In this example, the image object 330 includes an image 331 indicating the current (in the process of being set) setting value of the scheduled amount, a group of switch images 332 for increasing the digits of the scheduled amount, a group of switch images 333 for decreasing the digits of the scheduled amount, an image 334 indicating the current (in the process of being set) setting value of the scheduled time, a group of switch images 335 for increasing the digits of the scheduled time (the digits of the hour and minute), and a group of switch images 336 for decreasing the digits of the scheduled time.
[0056] The nurse sets the scheduled amount value to the value instructed by the doctor (order value) by touching switch image groups 332 and 333. The nurse sets the scheduled time to the time instructed by the doctor (order time) by touching switch image groups 335 and 336.
[0057] When the nurse selects image object 314, the smartphone 10 switches the screen displayed on the touch screen 130 from screen G41 to screen G1 of Fig. 4. When the nurse selects image object 315, the scheduled amount value and the scheduled time (hours and minutes) set using image object 330 are finalized. Furthermore, the smartphone 10 switches the screen displayed on the touch screen 130 from screen G41 to screen G42 shown in state (B).
[0058] In this case, the smartphone 10 calculates the flow rate by dividing the scheduled amount by the scheduled time. In this example, the smartphone 10 divides 265 mL by 10 hours and 00 minutes to obtain a flow rate of 26.50 mL / h. Based on the selection of the image object 315, the smartphone 10 determines the flow rate and the scheduled amount in the same manner as in the case of input mode #2.
[0059] The screen G42 includes at least an image object 337 indicating the determined flow rate value and the determined scheduled volume value, and an image object 317 for transmitting order information. In this example, the screen G42 indicates "26.50 mL / h" as the flow rate value and "265 mL" as the scheduled volume value. Furthermore, in this example, "10 hours 00 minutes" is also indicated as the scheduled time.
[0060] In this state, when the nurse selects the image object 317, a process is started for transmitting the order information (in this case, the flow rate value and the planned amount value) to the infusion pump 20. In detail, when the nurse brings the smartphone 10 closer to the infusion pump 20, short-range wireless communication is performed between the smartphone 10 and the infusion pump 20 for transmitting the flow rate value (designated value) and the planned amount value (designated value) from the smartphone 10 to the infusion pump 20.
[0061] More specifically, when short-range wireless communication is established, the smartphone 10 transmits the flow rate value, the planned volume value, and the setting mode ID "M2" shown in Fig. 3 to the infusion pump 20. The infusion pump 20 receives the flow rate value, the planned volume value, and the setting mode ID "M2" from the smartphone 10.
[0062] 8 is a block diagram for explaining specific configurations of the smartphone 10 and the infusion pump 20. First, the smartphone 10 will be explained, and then the infusion pump 20 will be explained.
[0063] 8, the smartphone 10 includes a control unit 110, a storage unit 120, a touch screen 130, a communication IF (Interface) 140, and a reader / writer 150. The touch screen 130 includes a display 131 and a touch panel 132. The control unit 110 includes an input mode setting unit 111.
[0064] The control unit 110 is a functional block realized by a processor executing an operating system and various application programs stored in a storage unit 120 corresponding to a memory. The storage unit 120 includes a volatile memory and a non-volatile memory.
[0065] The control unit 110 controls the overall operation of the smartphone 10. The control unit 110 controls reading data from the storage unit 120 and writing data to the storage unit 120. The control unit 110 accepts input via the touch screen 130. The control unit 110 controls output of the touch screen 130. The control unit 110 communicates data between the communication IF 140 and the reader / writer 150. The control unit 110 sends operation commands to the communication IF 140, the reader / writer 150, etc.
[0066] The input mode setting unit 111 sets one input mode from the above-mentioned three input modes #1 to #3 based on the selection operation by the nurse. In a state in which the screen G1 shown in Fig. 4 is displayed on the display 131, for example, if the nurse performs an operation on the touch panel 132 to select the image object 301 and the image object 305 in this order, the input mode setting unit 111 sets the input mode to input mode #1. In this case, the input mode setting unit 111 displays the screen G21 shown in state (A) of Fig. 5 on the display 131.
[0067] Similarly, when the nurse performs an operation on the touch panel 132 to select the image object 302 and the image object 305 in this order, the input mode setting unit 111 sets the input mode to the input mode #2. In this case, the input mode setting unit 111 causes the display 131 to display the screen G31 shown in state (A) of FIG.
[0068] When the nurse performs an operation on the touch panel 132 to select the image object 303 and the image object 305 in this order, the input mode setting unit 111 sets the input mode to the input mode #3. In this case, the input mode setting unit 111 causes the display 131 to display the screen G41 shown in state (A) of FIG.
[0069] The communication IF 140 is an interface for communicating with an external device (not shown). The reader / writer 150 transmits the order information Q to the infusion pump 20. In detail, the reader / writer 150 transmits the order information Q based on the input modes #1 to #3 and the setting mode ID to the infusion pump 20 by short-range wireless communication.
[0070] Specifically, when an input based on input mode #1 is made on the smartphone 10, the reader / writer 150 transmits the flow rate and the setting mode ID “M1” (FIG. 3) to the infusion pump 20. Similarly, when an input based on input mode #2 or input mode #3 is made on the smartphone 10, the reader / writer 150 transmits the flow rate, the scheduled amount, and the setting mode ID “M2” (FIG. 3) to the infusion pump 20.
[0071] The control unit 110 causes various screens to be displayed on the display 131. For example, the control unit 110 causes the display 131 to display various screens G1, G21, G22, G31, G32, G41, G42, etc., shown in FIGS.
[0072] The touch panel 132 accepts various user inputs (touch operations). For example, in the example of screen G1 in Fig. 4, the touch panel 132 accepts an operation to select image objects 301 to 305. In the example of screen G22 in Fig. 5, the touch panel 132 accepts an operation to select image object 317. In this case, the smartphone 10 transmits the order information Q acquired from the server device to the infusion pump 20.
[0073] The infusion pump 20 includes a control unit 210, a storage unit 220, an operation key 230, a non-contact integrated circuit card 240, a display 250, and a pump body 270. The control unit 210 includes a setting mode determination unit 211. The pump body 270 includes a drive unit 271 that operates a plurality of fingers that press the tube, and the like.
[0074] The control unit 210 is a functional block realized by a processor executing an operating system and various application programs stored in a storage unit 220 corresponding to a memory. The storage unit 220 includes a volatile memory and a non-volatile memory.

[0088] <Summary> The above-described medicinal solution administration system 1 can be summarized as follows.
[0089] (1) As described above, the medical fluid administration system 1 includes an infusion pump 20 that administers a medical fluid to a patient, and a smartphone 10 that can communicate with the infusion pump 20. As shown in Fig. 2, the infusion pump 20 has a setting mode #1 in which only the flow rate of the medical fluid and the planned amount of the medical fluid are set to administer the medical fluid, and a setting mode #2 in which the flow rate and the planned amount are set to administer the medical fluid. The smartphone 10 has an input mode #1 corresponding to the setting mode #1 and input modes #2 and #3 corresponding to the setting mode #2, each of which is selectable, as shown in Fig. 3.
[0090] In input mode #1, the smartphone 10 accepts the input of the flow rate as shown in state (A) of FIG. 5. In input mode #2, the smartphone 10 accepts the input of the flow rate and the planned amount as shown in state (A) of FIG. 6. In input mode #3, the smartphone 10 accepts the input of the planned amount and the planned time for administration of the medicinal liquid as shown in state (A) of FIG. 7. In input mode #3, the smartphone 10 calculates the flow rate from the planned amount and the planned time. In input mode #1, the smartphone 10 transmits the flow rate to the infusion pump 20 as shown in state (B) of FIG. 5. In input modes #2 and #3, the smartphone 10 transmits the flow rate and the planned amount to the infusion pump 20 as shown in each state (B) of FIG. 6 and 7.
[0091] According to this configuration, if the doctor's order is only for the flow rate, the nurse can use input mode #1 to input only the flow rate into the smartphone 10. If the doctor's order is for the flow rate and the scheduled volume, the nurse can use input mode #2 to input the flow rate and the scheduled volume into the smartphone 10. If the doctor's order is for the scheduled volume and scheduled time, the nurse can use input mode #3 to input the scheduled volume and scheduled time into the smartphone 10.
[0092] When input mode #1 is used as described above, the smartphone 10 transmits the flow rate to the infusion pump 20. When input mode #2 or #3 is used, the smartphone 10 transmits the flow rate, the scheduled amount, and the like to the infusion pump 20.
[0093] In this way, according to the medicinal fluid administration system 1, a nurse can input the doctor's order into the smartphone 10, thereby transmitting information (order information) required for setting the order of the infusion pump 20 to the infusion pump 20. In particular, when the doctor's order is for a scheduled amount and a scheduled time, the smartphone 10 calculates the flow rate from the scheduled amount and the scheduled time. This eliminates the need for the nurse to calculate the flow rate.
[0094] Therefore, when the doctor gives different orders, the order such as the flow rate can be easily input on the smartphone 10. Therefore, according to the medicinal solution administration system 1, the order can be easily set on the infusion pump 20.
[0095] (2) The smartphone 10 has a display 131 as shown in Fig. 8. In input mode #1, the smartphone 10 displays on the display 131 a screen G21 on which only the flow rate can be input among the flow rate, scheduled amount, and scheduled time, as shown in state (A) of Fig. 5. In input mode #2, the smartphone 10 displays on the display 131 a screen G31 on which only the flow rate and scheduled amount can be input among the flow rate, scheduled amount, and scheduled time, as shown in state (A) of Fig. 6. In input mode #3, the smartphone 10 displays on the display 131 a screen G41 on which only the scheduled amount and scheduled time can be input among the flow rate, scheduled amount, and scheduled time, as shown in state (A) of Fig. 7.
[0096] According to this configuration, the smartphone 10 displays a screen that accepts input of only items according to an order from a doctor. This allows a nurse to easily and quickly input the order into the smartphone 10.
[0097] (3) In input mode #1, the smartphone 10 transmits the flow rate input via screen G21 shown in state (A) of FIG. 5 to the infusion pump 20. In input mode #2, the smartphone 10 transmits the flow rate and the planned amount input via screen G31 shown in state (A) of FIG. 6 to the infusion pump 20. In input mode #3, the smartphone 10 calculates the flow rate from the planned amount and the planned time input via screen G41 shown in state (A) of FIG. 7. The smartphone 10 transmits the calculated flow rate and the planned amount input via screen G41 to the infusion pump 20. With this configuration, order information can be transmitted to the infusion pump 20 by inputting information on a screen corresponding to the input mode.
[0098] (4) The infusion pump 20 operates in a setting mode corresponding to the selected input mode, either setting mode #1 or #2. Therefore, if the nurse selects an input mode on the smartphone 10, the infusion pump 20 can operate in the setting mode corresponding to the selected input mode.
[0099] (5) The smartphone 10 further transmits a setting mode ID associated with the selected input mode to the infusion pump 20. The infusion pump 20 operates in a setting mode corresponding to the setting mode ID, either setting mode #1 or #2. With this configuration, the setting mode ID can be used to operate the infusion pump 20 in the setting mode corresponding to the input mode.
[0100] (6) The smartphone 10 displays a screen G1 on which any one of input modes #1, #2, and #3 can be selected, as shown in Fig. 4. With this configuration, the nurse can select one of input modes #1 to #3.
[0101] <Modification> (1) In the above, the screens G21, G31, G41, etc. are given as examples of user interfaces used for order input on the smartphone 10, but the present invention is not limited to these. It is preferable that the smartphone 10 is configured to be able to display various user interfaces according to information to be transmitted to the infusion pump 20.
[0102] (2) In the above, the smartphone 10 transmits the setting mode ID to the infusion pump 20, but the present invention is not limited to this. The infusion pump 20 may be configured to set the setting mode based on the received order information, even if the setting mode ID is not received from the smartphone 10.
[0103] For example, when only the flow rate is notified from the smartphone 10 to the infusion pump 20 as the order information, the infusion pump 20 may set the setting mode to setting mode #1. When the flow rate and the planned amount are notified from the smartphone 10 to the infusion pump 20 as the order information, the infusion pump 20 may set the setting mode to setting mode #2.
[0104] (3) In the above, as shown in Fig. 5 to Fig. 7, the flow rate, the scheduled amount, and the scheduled time are manually input to the smartphone 10, but the present invention is not limited to this. The smartphone 10 may accept the flow rate, the scheduled amount, and the scheduled time by voice input. Furthermore, the smartphone 10 may accept an operation of selecting one of the image objects 301 to 303 shown in Fig. 4 by voice, etc.
