[0004] Traditionally, dealing with complications during childbirth has been more difficult than in typical cases, especially in emergency transport situations. In emergency transport, paramedics typically assess the patient's condition and then search for a nearby hospital that can accept them. However, in cases of complications during childbirth in pregnant women, paramedics must first confirm that the person to be transported is pregnant and that the situation involves complications during childbirth. Furthermore, there is a possibility that a hospital other than the patient's primary care physician may not accept the patient. Therefore, even if the nearest hospital initially accepts the patient as a normal emergency transport, if it is later discovered that the patient is pregnant or experiencing complications during childbirth, they may need to be transported again to a hospital where their primary care physician can handle the situation, potentially leading to longer transport times and delays in treatment. In addition to physical complications, pregnancy and childbirth can also involve psychological issues, such as maternal depression. When a woman is depressed, it can be difficult to recognize that she is pregnant. This can lead to delays in treatment. Furthermore, complications during childbirth in pregnant women often involve not only general emergency transport but also the delivery itself, requiring hospitals to be more prepared than usual for receiving such patients. The navigation device described in Patent Document 1 is merely a navigation system and does not include a notification system for birth complications in pregnant women, nor does it include information on how to contact a primary care physician. Similarly, the medical support server described in Patent Document 2 only creates a timeline and does not include a notification system for birth complications in pregnant women, nor does it include information on how to contact a primary care physician. The present invention aims to provide a birth complications notification system that allows pregnant women to respond to birth complications with a single tap and simultaneously notifies their attending physician, thereby enabling pregnant women to be transported to an appropriate hospital with minimal transport time and allowing their attending physician to have time to prepare.

Mode for Carrying Out the Invention

[0007] FIG. 1 shows a production trouble notification system 1 in one embodiment of the present invention.

[0008] The childbirth trouble notification system 1 comprises a pregnant woman information receiving unit 110, a pregnant woman information storage unit 120, a primary care physician information storage unit 130, a communication unit 140, an emergency input receiving unit 150, an emergency contact transmission unit 160, and a primary care physician contact unit 170. The pregnant woman information reception unit 110 accepts pre-entered information that the person is pregnant, and the pregnant woman information storage unit 120 stores that information. In addition, the primary care physician information storage unit 130 stores information about the primary care physician, including the physician's contact information.

[0009] The emergency input reception unit 150 receives emergency inputs. The emergency contact transmission unit 160 receives a signal from the emergency input reception unit 150 and transmits an emergency contact via the communication unit 140. The primary care physician contact unit 170 detects that the emergency input has been received by the emergency input reception unit 150, retrieves the primary care physician's contact information stored in the primary care physician information storage unit 130, and transmits emergency contact received information to the primary care physician via the communication unit 140. The emergency response system addresses childbirth complications that include not only physical problems but also mental problems.

[0010] A primary care physician can be a doctor you regularly see at a hospital, not just a primary care physician. Emergency input to the emergency input reception unit 150 can be done with a single tap, a double-click, or other methods. Voice input is also acceptable. Alternatively, each function can be separated and deployed using cloud servers or similar technologies. Emergency contact information can be received via means other than voice notifications such as SMS, and the communication unit 140 may be the same for both emergency contact and emergency contact information transmission, or it may be different for each.

[0011] Figure 2 shows an example of the operation of the childbirth trouble notification system 1 in one embodiment of the present invention. When the childbirth trouble notification system 1 is activated in step S00, it moves to a standby state in step S01, and in step S02, it determines whether the user, a pregnant woman, has made an emergency input via an application or other means. If an emergency call is detected, the emergency call is received in step S03, and an emergency contact is made in step S04. In addition, the contact information of the primary care physician is obtained in step S11, and the emergency contact information is sent to the primary care physician in step S12. If it is determined in step S02 that there is no emergency input, then in step S98, it is decided whether to terminate the birth trouble notification system 1. If it is decided to terminate, it is terminated in step S99. If it is not decided to terminate, it returns to the standby state in step S01.

[0012] In this embodiment, the childbirth trouble notification system 1, with a single operation by the user, has the emergency input reception unit 150 receive the emergency input, the emergency contact transmission unit 160 transmit an emergency contact via the communication unit 140, and the primary care physician contact unit 170 transmit emergency contact reception information to the primary care physician via the communication unit 140. This configuration allows users with limited time in an emergency to initiate an emergency contact with just one tap or operation, without needing to call 119, and also to contact their family doctor in advance.

[0013] Figure 3 shows a birth complications notification system 1 in one embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment, the emergency contact transmission unit 160 includes an electronic voice transmission unit 161. The electronic voice transmission unit 161 transmits information such as that it is a birthing complication, the name, positioning information, and the hospital to which the patient is being transported, using electronic voice. The electronic voice may be an electronic voice that reads out text information, or it may be a pre-recorded human voice.

[0014] Figure 4 shows a birth complications notification system 1 according to one embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment, the emergency contact transmission unit 160 includes a text data transmission unit 162 that transmits information such as the fact that it is a birthing complication, the name, positioning information, and the destination hospital in text data. Text data includes posts made on social media and other platforms.

[0015] In one embodiment of the present invention, the emergency input reception unit 150 is a mobile terminal 151. Here, the mobile device 151 includes wearable devices, mobile communication devices such as smartphones, and laptop computers. Furthermore, the emergency input reception unit 150 can be displayed as an application on the screen of the mobile terminal 151. The application may also be configured to be accessible from general communication terminals via the cloud or the like.

[0016] Figure 5 shows a birth complications notification system 1 in one embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment, the childbirth trouble notification system 1 has a plurality of emergency input reception units 150. This configuration allows for support from other mobile devices 151 even if the user forgets to bring their mobile communication device or if the wearable device runs out of battery or malfunctions.

[0017] Figure 6 shows a birth complications notification system 1 in one embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment, the primary care physician information storage unit 130 stores contact information for multiple primary care physicians. Specifically, it has a first contact information storage unit 131 and a second contact information storage unit 132, which store first contact information and second contact information, respectively. The primary contact information is the contact information for the primary care physician, and the secondary contact information is the contact information for the department to which the primary care physician belongs. This configuration allows other doctors from the same team or hospital to provide care even if the primary care physician is unavailable.

[0018] In one embodiment of the present invention, the pregnant woman information storage unit 120 stores information from the maternal and child health handbook in addition to the fact that the user is pregnant. Pregnant women who do not have any complications often have no medical records, so their past medical history is recorded in their maternal and child health handbook, including information from checkups and other medical records. In the event of sudden complications, it is necessary to share this information, so collaboration with the patient's primary care physician and the information in the maternal and child health handbook are useful resources. This configuration makes it possible to use the information contained in the maternal and child health handbook as reference information.

[0019] In one embodiment of the present invention, the pregnant woman information storage unit 120 stores not only the information that the user is pregnant, but also the pregnant woman's healthcare data, such as her daily vital data, which can be viewed by a doctor for reference after emergency transport. An example of healthcare data is the pregnant woman's daily biological information, but it also includes information such as the number of steps, sleep records, emotional records, as well as fluid intake and meal records. Here, biological information refers to body temperature, pulse pressure, etc., and daily biological information refers to biological information at multiple dates and times, for example, biological information at a predetermined time each day, but it does not have to be daily, but every two days, weekly, or other times. Biological information continuously recorded by a smartwatch or the like is also included. In particular, if a mobile device 151 such as a smartwatch can measure and record the pregnant woman's healthcare data, it is easy to acquire healthcare data, and the birth complications notification system 1 can be configured compactly.

[0020] Figure 7 shows a birth complications notification system 1 in one embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment, the pregnant woman information storage unit 120 stores the expected delivery date, and the emergency contact information received includes the expected delivery date. Specifically, the information stored includes the patient's name, the destination of transport, and the expected delivery date. The expected delivery date can be an approximate time or the actual expected delivery date. This configuration makes it easier for the attending physician who receives an emergency call to determine whether the birthing complication involves childbirth or occurred before.

[0021] The present invention is not limited to the embodiments described above, and it goes without saying that it includes various embodiments without departing from the spirit of the invention. For example, each step in the example operation may be rearranged or multiple steps may be provided, as long as it does not contradict the spirit of this application. This also includes configurations where some or all of each memory unit is stored in a separate location from the communication unit and emergency contact transmission unit, for example, in the cloud.
