[0009] Hereinafter, an example of an embodiment of the disclosed technology will be described with reference to the drawings. In each drawing, the same or equivalent components and parts are given the same reference numerals, and redundant description will be omitted.

[0010] 1 is a diagram illustrating an example of the configuration of an information processing system 1 according to an embodiment of the disclosed technology. The information processing system 1 includes an information processing device 10, a medical data server 20, a user terminal device 30, and a biological information measuring device 31.

[0011] The medical data server 20 is a computer that manages medical data of patients. The medical data server 20 stores medical data 21 for each patient. The medical data 21 includes at least an electronic medical record 22. The medical data 21 may also include image data 24 and test data 23. The electronic medical record 22 is medical document data that records medical information obtained from medical examinations of users who are patients. The test data 23 is data that indicates the results of various tests, such as specimen tests and physiological function tests, conducted on the patient. The image data 24 is data of various medical images, such as X-ray images, ultrasound images, CT (Computed Tomography) images, and MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) images, taken of the patient.

[0012] The information processing device 10 is communicatively connected to the medical data server 20 via a network 41 and can access medical data 21 stored in the medical data server 20. The information processing device 10 can view electronic medical records 22, test data 23, and image data 24, and can create and edit the electronic medical records 22. The information processing device 10 and the medical data server 20 may be installed in a medical institution such as a hospital, in which case the network 41 may be a local area network (LAN) established within the medical institution. The medical data server 20 may also be a so-called cloud server. In this case, the network 41 may be a wide area network (WAN).

[0013] The user terminal device 30 is a computer used by a user who is a patient whose medical data 21 is recorded in the medical data server 20. The user terminal device 30 may be, for example, a personal computer or a smartphone used personally by the user (patient). The user terminal device 30 can be connected to the information processing device 10 via a network 42. The network 42 may be at least one of a LAN (Local Area Network) or a WAN (Wide Area Network), or a combination of these.

[0014] Various applications, such as a web browser, an email application, a messenger application, and an SNS (social networking service) application, are installed on the user terminal device 30, and the user can use these applications. For example, a user can use the user terminal device 30 to perform a web search by entering search keywords into a search engine. Furthermore, a user can use the email application, messenger application, SNS (social networking service) application, etc. installed on the user terminal device 30 to send or transmit messages or information to specified or unspecified recipients. Note that while only one user terminal device 30 is shown in FIG. 1, the information processing system 1 may include multiple user terminal devices 30.

[0015] The biological information measurement device 31 measures biological information of a user (patient). The biological information may be, for example, information indicating at least one of body temperature, heart rate, electrocardiogram, electromyogram, blood pressure, arterial oxygen saturation (SpO2), blood glucose level, and lipid level. The biological information may also include the rate of change of these measured values ​​over a given period. The biological information measurement device 31 may be a wearable device such as a smartwatch equipped with a sensor that measures these biological information. The biological information measurement device 31 has a function of continuously measuring the user's biological information according to a predetermined time schedule and transmitting the measurement results to the user terminal device 30. The biological information measurement device 31 may measure various measurement items, for example, once or twice or more times a day. The measurement frequency may vary for each measurement item. The measurement time schedule may also be set by the user at their own discretion. The connection between the user terminal device 30 and the biological information measurement device 31 may be either wireless or wired. The user terminal device 30 and the biological information measurement device 31 may be connected via a network configured as at least one of a LAN (Local Area Network) and a WAN (Wide Area Network), or a combination of these.

[0016] The user terminal device 30 transmits the biological information measured by the biological information measuring device 31 to the information processing device 10. The user terminal device 30 also transmits input information input to the user terminal device 30 to the information processing device 10. The input information may be information input on various applications installed on the user terminal device 30. The input information may include, for example, search keywords entered into a search engine for searching for information on a network. The input information may also include, for example, words sent or transmitted to a specific or unspecified party in an outgoing email, a message on a messenger application, a post on an SNS, a blog entry, a chat conversation, or the like.

[0017] After the biometric information is measured and the input information is input, the user terminal device 30 may transmit this information to the information processing device 10 immediately, or may transmit this information to the information processing device 10 at a predetermined time. Furthermore, the user terminal device 30 may transmit this information to the information processing device 10 based on an instruction to transmit the biometric information and input information. The instruction to transmit the biometric information and input information may be transmitted from the information processing device 10. The information processing device 10 performs information processing to support the creation of the electronic medical record 22 using the biometric information and input information transmitted from the user terminal device 30. Furthermore, the timing of transmission to the information processing device 10 may be set by the user at any time.

[0018] FIG. 2 is a diagram showing an example of medical information recorded in the electronic medical record 22. The medical information recorded in the electronic medical record 22 includes "subjective information," "objective information," "evaluation," and "plan." "Subjective information" is information obtained through a patient interview, and includes, for example, information regarding the patient's subjective symptoms, onset time, current medical history, past medical history, family history, and lifestyle history. "Objective information" is objective information obtained by examining and testing the patient. "Evaluation" is information indicating a comprehensive evaluation based on the doctor's diagnosis and analysis or interpretation of the subjective and objective information. "Plan" is information indicating the treatment policy, content, and lifestyle guidance determined based on the "evaluation." The electronic medical record 22 can be viewed, created, and edited by a doctor using, for example, the information processing device 10. The created electronic medical record 22 is stored and maintained in the medical data server 20.

[0019] 3 is a diagram showing an example of the hardware configuration of the information processing device 10. The information processing device 10 includes a CPU (Central Processing Unit) 101, a RAM (Random Access Memory) 102, a non-volatile memory 103, an input device 104, a display 105, and a network interface 106. These pieces of hardware are connected to a bus 107.

[0020] The display 105 is, for example, a liquid crystal display or an LED (Light Emitting Diode) display. The input device 104 includes, for example, a keyboard and a mouse, and may also include a proximity input device such as a touch panel display, a voice input device such as a microphone, or a non-contact input device such as a camera or a sensor. The network interface 106 is an interface for connecting the information processing device 10 to the networks 41 and 42.

[0021] The nonvolatile memory 103 is a nonvolatile storage medium such as a hard disk or flash memory. An information processing program 110 is stored in the nonvolatile memory 103. The RAM 102 is a work memory for the CPU 101 to execute processing. The CPU 101 loads the information processing program 110 stored in the nonvolatile memory 103 into the RAM 102 and executes processing in accordance with the information processing program 110. The CPU 101 is an example of a "processor" in the disclosed technology.

[0022] 4 is a functional block diagram showing an example of the functional configuration of the information processing device 10. The information processing device 10 has a user information acquisition unit 11, a recording processing unit 12, an electronic medical record acquisition unit 13, a related information extraction unit 14, an association processing unit 15, and a display processing unit 16. When the CPU 101 executes the information processing program 110, the CPU 101 functions as the user information acquisition unit 11, the recording processing unit 12, the electronic medical record acquisition unit 13, the related information extraction unit 14, the association processing unit 15, and the display processing unit 16.

[0023] The user information acquiring unit 11 acquires the biometric information and input information of the user (patient) transmitted from the user terminal device 30. The user information acquiring unit 11 acquires the biometric information and input information, for example, once or twice or more times a day.

[0024] The recording processing unit 12 performs a process of assigning metadata including date and time information indicating the date and time when the biological information was measured and a user ID (identification) to the biological information acquired by the user information acquiring unit 11, and recording (saving) the resulting information in the non-volatile memory 103. The recording processing unit 12 also performs a selection process of selecting input information including specific words related to the physical condition of the user (patient) from the input information acquired by the user information acquiring unit 11. The recording processing unit 12 performs a process of assigning metadata including date and time information indicating the date and time when the input information was input and a user ID to the selected input information, and recording (saving) the resulting information in the non-volatile memory 103.

[0025] Examples of specific words related to the user's (patient's) physical condition include "fever," "cough," "headache," "stomachache," "dizziness," "cold," "can't sleep," "anxiety," "depressed," "tired," "irritable," "influenza," "novel coronavirus," and "COVID-19." These specific words related to the user's (patient's) physical condition may be pre-registered. In this case, the recording processing unit 12 may select input information containing the pre-registered words from the input information acquired by the user information acquisition unit 11 and record the selected input information in the non-volatile memory 103. By performing the above-described selection process on the input information, input information unrelated to the user's (patient's) physical condition is excluded from the processing target. Biometric information and input information transmitted daily from the user terminal device 30 are stored in the non-volatile memory 103 of the information processing device 10.

[0026] The electronic medical record acquiring unit 13 acquires an electronic medical record 22 in which medical information is recorded. For example, when creation of the electronic medical record 22 using the information processing device 10 is completed, the electronic medical record acquiring unit 13 may acquire the electronic medical record 22. Alternatively, the electronic medical record acquiring unit 13 may acquire the created electronic medical record 22 stored in the medical data server 20.

[0027] The related information extraction unit 14 extracts related information related to the medical information recorded in the electronic medical record 22 acquired by the electronic medical record acquisition unit 13 from at least one of the biometric information and input information about the patient recorded in the non-volatile memory 103. The related information extraction unit 14 identifies the biometric information and input information about the same patient as the target patient in the electronic medical record 22 by referring to the user ID assigned to the biometric information and input information, and extracts related information from the identified biometric information and input information.

[0028] The related information extraction unit 14 may extract, as related information, input information including a description indicating a symptom that is the same as or similar to a symptom recorded in the subjective information recording field of the electronic medical record 22. For example, if "slight fever" is recorded as a subjective symptom of the patient in the subjective information recording field of the electronic medical record 22, input information including descriptions such as "slight fever," "fever," and "febrile" may be extracted as related information.

[0029] Furthermore, the related information extraction unit 14 may extract, as related information, input information including a description of symptoms that are expected to occur in association with the symptoms recorded in the subjective information recording field of the electronic medical record 22. For example, if "cough" is recorded as a subjective symptom of the patient in the subjective information recording field of the electronic medical record 22, input information including descriptions such as "headache," "runny nose," "sore throat," and "shortness of breath," which may occur in association with the cough symptom, may be extracted as related information.

[0030] Furthermore, the related information extraction unit 14 may extract, as related information, input information input within a predetermined period before and after the onset of symptoms recorded in the subjective information recording field of the electronic medical record 22, and biological information measured within the predetermined period. For example, if the subjective information recording field of the electronic medical record 22 contains the statement "slight fever since December 10th," input information input within a period of one week before and after December 10th and biological information measured within the period may be extracted as related information.

[0031] Furthermore, the related information extraction unit 14 may extract, as related information, input information that was input within a predetermined period before the time when the medical information was recorded in the electronic medical record 22 and biological information that was measured within the predetermined period. For example, if the time when the medical information was recorded in the electronic medical record 22 is October 20th, input information that was input in the week leading up to October 20th (i.e., the period from October 13th to October 20th) and biological information that was measured within the period may be extracted as related information.

[0032] The association processing unit 15 performs an association process to associate the related information extracted by the related information extraction unit 14 with related medical information recorded in the electronic medical record 22. That is, medical information about a certain patient recorded in the electronic medical record 22 is associated with related information related to the medical information extracted from the input information and biometric information about the patient. As part of the association process, the association processing unit 15 may set a hyperlink to the medical information recorded in the electronic medical record 22, indicating the location of the corresponding related information.

[0033] The display processing unit 16 displays the medical information recorded in the electronic medical record 22 acquired by the electronic medical record acquiring unit 13 on the display screen 200 of the display 105. FIG. 5 is a diagram showing an example of the display form of the medical information recorded in the electronic medical record 22. FIG. 5 illustrates an example of a state in which the electronic medical record 22, in which subjective information obtained through a patient interview, "Has had a slight fever since December 10th," is recorded and displayed on the display screen 200. FIG. 5 also illustrates an example in which, based on the description "December 10th" in the electronic medical record 22, extraction processing and association processing of related information are performed for the input information and biological information, and a hyperlink to the related information is set in the description portion of "December 10th" in the electronic medical record 22.

[0034] When a predetermined input operation or selection operation is performed while medical information recorded in the electronic medical record 22 is displayed on the display screen 200, the display processing unit 16 displays related information associated with the medical information on the display screen 200. For example, when an input operation is performed using an input device 104 such as a mouse to click on the description portion of "December 10th" to which a hyperlink is set in the electronic medical record 22 illustrated in FIG. 5, the display processing unit 16 displays related information associated with the medical information on the display screen 200.

[0035] Fig. 6 is a diagram showing an example of a display format of related information. In Fig. 6, input information entered within a predetermined period before and after "December 10th" entered in the subjective information recording column of the electronic medical record 22 and biological information measured within the period are exemplified as related information 300. The related information 300 may be displayed on the same screen as the screen displaying the electronic medical record 22, or may be displayed on a different screen. It is preferable that the related information 300 be displayed in a manner that allows it to be clearly distinguished from the medical information recorded in the electronic medical record 22.

[0036] Fig. 7 is a diagram showing another example of the display format of related information. In the example shown in Fig. 7, when medical information recorded in the electronic medical record 22 is displayed on the display screen 200, related information 300 associated with the medical information is displayed on the display screen 200 by a mouse-over pop-up. For example, when a selection operation is performed using an input device 104 such as a mouse to move the cursor over the description "December 10th" to which a hyperlink is set in the electronic medical record 22 shown in Fig. 7, the display processing unit 16 pops up the related information associated with the medical information on the display screen 200.

[0037] 8 is a flowchart showing an example of the flow of processing performed by CPU 101 executing information processing program 110. Information processing program 110 is executed when, for example, a user operates input device 104 to instruct the start of processing.

[0038] In step S1, the CPU 101 functions as the user information acquisition unit 11 and acquires the biometric information and input information of the user (patient) transmitted from the user terminal device 30. The CPU 101 acquires the biometric information and input information, for example, once or twice or more times a day.

[0039] In step S2, the CPU 101 functions as the recording processing unit 12, and performs a process of assigning metadata including date and time information indicating the date and time of measurement and a user ID to the biological information acquired in step S1, and recording (saving) the information in the non-volatile memory 103. The CPU 101 also performs a selection process of selecting input information including specific words related to the physical condition of the user (patient) from the input information acquired in step S1, and performs a process of assigning date and time information indicating the date and time of input and metadata including the user ID to the selected input information, and recording (saving) the selected input information in the non-volatile memory 103. The biological information and input information transmitted daily from the user terminal device 30 are accumulated in the non-volatile memory 103 of the information processing device 10.

[0040] In step S3, the CPU 101 functions as the electronic medical record acquisition unit 13 and acquires the electronic medical record 22 in which medical information is recorded in the record fields. The CPU 101 may acquire the electronic medical record 22 when creation of the electronic medical record 22 using the information processing device 10 is completed. The CPU 101 may also acquire the created electronic medical record 22 stored in the medical data server 20.

[0041] In step S4, the CPU 101 functions as the related information extraction unit 14, and extracts related information related to the medical information recorded in the electronic medical record 22 acquired in step S3 from at least one of the biometric information and input information about the patient recorded in the non-volatile memory 103 in step S2. The related information extraction unit 14 identifies the biometric information and input information about the same patient as the target patient in the electronic medical record 22 by referring to the user ID assigned to the biometric information and input information, and extracts related information from the identified biometric information and input information.

[0042] In step S5, the CPU 101 functions as the association processing unit 15 and performs an association process to associate the related information extracted in step S4 with the related medical information recorded in the electronic medical record 22. The CPU 101 may, for example, set a hyperlink to the medical information recorded in the electronic medical record 22, indicating the location of the corresponding related information.

[0043] In step S6, the CPU 101 functions as the display processing unit 16 and displays the medical information recorded in the electronic medical record 22 obtained in step S3 on the display screen 200 of the display 105. In step S7, the CPU 101 determines whether or not there is a request to display related information. A request to display related information can be made, for example, by an input operation of clicking on a description portion to which a hyperlink of the medical information displayed on the display screen 200 is set, or by a selection operation of placing a cursor on the description portion.

[0044] If the CPU 101 determines that there has been a request to display related information, it functions as the display processing unit 16 in step S8 and displays the related information that has been associated in step S5 on the display screen 200. If the CPU 101 determines that there has not been a request to display related information, it ends this routine.

[0045] As described above, the information processing device 10 according to this embodiment acquires the electronic medical record 22, which is medical document data recording medical information obtained from a user's medical examination, and acquires at least one of input information input to the user terminal device 30 used by the user and biometric information measured about the user. The information processing device 10 extracts related information related to the medical information recorded in the electronic medical record 22 from at least one of the input information and the biometric information, and performs an association process to associate the extracted related information with the related medical information. The information processing device 10 displays the medical information on the display screen 200, and displays related information associated with the medical information displayed on the display screen 200 based on an input operation or a selection operation.

[0046] Symptoms and other information obtained through patient interviews are recorded in medical document data such as electronic medical records. However, there are cases where patients are not clearly aware of their own symptoms or are unable to properly communicate their symptoms to their doctors. In such cases, inaccurate information is recorded in medical document data such as electronic medical records, which can make it difficult to properly formulate test orders, diagnoses, and treatment plans.

[0047] According to an information processing device 10 according to an embodiment of the disclosed technology, related information related to medical information recorded in an electronic medical record 22 is associated with the medical information. The related information is extracted from input information entered into a user terminal device 30 used by a user who is a patient of the electronic medical record 22 or from biometric information measured on the user. The input information and biometric information are considered to record information regarding the user's (patient's) symptoms or physical condition with a relatively high degree of accuracy. By associating the related information extracted from such input information and biometric information with the medical information recorded in the electronic medical record 22 and displaying it upon request, it is possible to evaluate the reliability of the medical information recorded in the electronic medical record 22. For example, if the content of the medical information recorded in the electronic medical record 22 is inconsistent with the content of the related information associated with the medical information, the doctor can re-interview the patient to determine whether the medical information recorded in the electronic medical record 22 is accurate, and if it is inaccurate, correct the medical information.

[0048] As described above, the information processing device 10 according to the embodiment of the disclosed technology can contribute to improving the accuracy of medical information recorded in medical document data compared to a case where at least one of input information input to a user terminal device and biometric information measured on the user is not acquired. In particular, it is effective to perform the association process according to the present embodiment on subjective information obtained through interviews with users, among various types of information recorded in medical document data. This is because subjective information often lacks accuracy.

[0049] In this embodiment, a typical example is a case where extraction and matching of related information is performed for subjective information among the medical information recorded in the electronic medical record 22, but extraction and matching of related information may also be performed for information other than subjective information.

[0050] Furthermore, in this embodiment, electronic medical records are exemplified as medical document data in which medical information is recorded, but the disclosed technology can also be applied to medical document data other than electronic medical records.

[0051] In addition, in this embodiment, an example has been given of acquiring both input information and biometric information as user information from which related information is extracted, but it is also possible to acquire only one of the input information and biometric information and extract related information from the acquired input information or biometric information.

[0052] In addition, in this embodiment, an example has been given of the information processing device 10 acquiring biometric information and input information transmitted from the user terminal device 30, but if the biometric information and input information are stored in a specified server, the information processing device 10 may access the server to acquire the biometric information and input information.

[0053] The information processing device 10 according to the present embodiment is an example of an "information processing device" according to the technology of the present disclosure. Furthermore, the "information processing device" according to the technology of the present disclosure may be a system including the configuration of the information processing device 10 and the medical data server 20. More specifically, the information processing device may be a system including the medical data server 20, which includes at least an electronic medical record 22, and the information processing device 10. Furthermore, in the present embodiment, user information is acquired periodically, at a frequency of once or twice or more per day, but this is not limited to this. For example, the user information acquisition unit 11 may acquire user information triggered by the timing of access to user information in the electronic medical record or the start of electronic medical record entry when the user visits a hospital.

[0054] [Second embodiment] 9 is a functional block diagram showing an example of the functional configuration of an information processing device 10A according to a second embodiment of the disclosed technology. The information processing device 10A according to the second embodiment differs from the information processing device 10 according to the first embodiment described above in that it further includes a comparison processing unit 17. The comparison processing unit 17 compares medical information recorded in an electronic medical record 22 with related information associated with the medical information, and derives a comparison result.

[0055] For example, the comparison processing unit 17 may compare the onset time of a symptom recorded in the subjective information recording field of the electronic medical record 22 with the onset time of the same or similar symptom identified from the corresponding related information. For example, if "Feeling fatigue since December 10th" is recorded in the subjective information recording field of the electronic medical record 22, and the related information associated with this information is a message containing the description "feeling tired" sent by the user using a messenger application on December 9th, the comparison processing unit 17 compares the onset date recorded in the electronic medical record 22 (December 10th) with the onset date identified from the related information (December 9th), and derives a comparison result indicating that the two do not match.

[0056] Furthermore, the comparison processing unit 17 may compare the symptoms recorded in the recording field for subjective information in the electronic medical record 22 with the biological information that is the corresponding related information. For example, if "has had a slight fever since December 10th" is recorded in the recording field for subjective information in the electronic medical record 22, and the related information associated with this information is the body temperature measured on December 10th, and the measured value is "37.4°C", the comparison processing unit 17 compares the symptoms (slight fever) recorded in the electronic medical record 22 with the body temperature (37.4°C) identified from the related information, and derives a comparison result that indicates that the two match.

[0057] The display processing unit 16 displays the comparison results derived by the comparison processing unit 17 on the display screen 200. Fig. 10 is a diagram showing an example of the display form of the comparison results derived by the comparison processing unit 17. In the example shown in Fig. 10, in a state in which medical information recorded in the electronic medical record 22 is displayed on the display screen 200, related information associated with the medical information is displayed on the display screen 200 by a mouse-over pop-up together with the comparison results with the medical information. In this example, since the onset date (December 10) recorded in the electronic medical record 22 differs from the onset date (December 9) identified from the related information, a message indicating that the content of the related information does not match the content of the medical information recorded in the electronic medical record 22 is displayed on the display screen 200.

[0058] The display form of the comparison result derived by the comparison processing unit 17 is not limited to the above. For example, at least one of the color, size, and font of the characters describing the medical information in the electronic medical record 22 may be changed depending on whether the medical information and the related information match or do not match. Furthermore, for example, if the medical information and the related information do not match, the characters describing the medical information in the electronic medical record 22 may be highlighted or otherwise emphasized.

[0059] According to the information processing device 10A according to this embodiment, when there is a possibility that medical information that lacks accuracy is recorded in the electronic medical record 22, it is possible to issue a warning.

[0060] In the above embodiment, the following various processors can be used as the hardware structure of the processing units that perform various processes, such as the user information acquisition unit 11, the record processing unit 12, the electronic medical record acquisition unit 13, the related information extraction unit 14, the association processing unit 15, the display processing unit 16, and the comparison processing unit 17. As described above, the various processors include CPUs and GPUs, which are general-purpose processors that execute software (programs) and function as various processing units, as well as dedicated electrical circuits, such as programmable logic devices (PLDs), which are processors whose circuit configuration can be changed after manufacture, such as FPGAs, and application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs), which are processors with a circuit configuration designed specifically to perform specific processes.

[0061] A single processing unit may be configured with one of these various processors, or may be configured with a combination of two or more processors of the same or different types (for example, a combination of multiple FPGAs, or a combination of a CPU and an FPGA). Also, multiple processing units may be configured with a single processor.

[0062] Examples of configuring multiple processing units with a single processor include, first, a form in which one processor is configured with a combination of one or more CPUs and software, and this processor functions as multiple processing units, as typified by computers such as client and server. Second, a form in which a processor is used to realize the functions of the entire system including multiple processing units with a single IC (Integrated Circuit) chip, as typified by systems on chips (SoCs). In this way, various processing units are configured using one or more of the above-mentioned various processors as a hardware structure.

[0063] Furthermore, more specifically, the hardware structure of these various processors can be an electric circuit that combines circuit elements such as semiconductor elements.

[0064] Furthermore, in the above embodiment, the information processing program 110 is described as being pre-stored (installed) in the non-volatile memory 103, but this is not limiting. The information processing program 110 may be provided in a form recorded on a recording medium such as a CD-ROM (Compact Disc Read Only Memory), a DVD-ROM (Digital Versatile Disc Read Only Memory), or a USB (Universal Serial Bus) memory. The information processing program 110 may also be downloaded from an external device via a network. In other words, the program described in this embodiment (i.e., a program product) may be provided on a recording medium or may be distributed from an external computer. [Explanation of symbols]
