Solution Overview

Problem

There is a lack of standardized methodologies for registering, distributing, and managing digital therapeutics developed by various pharmaceutical companies, which hinders their effective implementation and prescription in clinical settings.

Innovation Solution

A digital therapeutic object store device and method that utilizes XML-based DPR messages for registration, update, usage, and abandonment of digital therapeutics, enabling medical staff to access and control these objects through user terminals, incorporating disease codes, license codes, and prescription methods as control parameters.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If digital therapeutics are developed by various pharmaceutical companies without standardized management, then product diversity and innovation are improved, but registration, distribution, and management processes become complex and inconsistent

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveproduct diversityVSAvoidmanagement process complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements a universal store device and standardized DPR message format that can handle multiple digital therapeutic products from different pharmaceutical companies through a single interface. The XML-based message structure with standardized elements (messageID, messageType, registrationInfo, licenseInfo, etc.) enables the system to process registration, license issuance, usage control, and abandonment requests for diverse digital therapeutics uniformly, resolving the contradiction between product diversity and management complexity

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

2Productivity

If a centralized store device is implemented for managing digital therapeutics, then distribution and management efficiency are improved, but system complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedistribution efficiencyVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent transforms the management of diverse digital therapeutic products into a standardized parameter-based system. By defining fixed XML message parameters (messageType, registrationInfo, licenseInfo, controlInfo, etc.) and using structured data formats, the system simplifies the processing logic despite handling multiple products. The standardized parameter structure enables automated processing and reduces system complexity while maintaining high distribution efficiency

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

3Reliability

If XML-based standardized messages are used for digital therapeutic management, then process standardization and interoperability are improved, but implementation complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveprocess standardizationVSAvoidimplementation complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the digital therapeutic management process into distinct, standardized message types (registration, license issuance, usage control, abandonment, etc.), each with specific XML elements. This segmentation allows each message type to be processed independently with clear validation rules, making the implementation more manageable despite the overall standardization requirements. The modular message structure reduces implementation complexity by providing clear templates for each operation

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation
