Health Information Image Sharing Relay System
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current remote medical systems face challenges in sharing patient health information between healthcare providers and patients, especially when patients do not visit a healthcare service provider, as existing electronic medical records (EMRs) are not easily shareable without in-person visits.
Innovation Solution
A method and system that allow healthcare devices and user terminals to share health information as images in real-time, involving monitoring for sharing requests, transforming web pages into images, storing, and transmitting these images between devices via a sharing relay device.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If electronic medical records are used for remote health monitoring, then health information can be stored and accessed, but patients cannot easily share their medical records without visiting a health care service provider
Solution Approach 1:
The patent captures the web page displaying health information as an image, creating a visual copy that can be easily transmitted and shared. This image copy replaces the need for complex EMR system access and eliminates the requirement for patients to visit healthcare providers, enabling instant sharing of health records through simple image transmission.
2Productivity
If web pages representing health information are shared in real-time, then remote consultation efficiency is improved, but the system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces a sharing relay device as an intermediary between the health care service provider's terminal and the patient's terminal. This relay device receives the captured image from the provider's terminal and forwards it to the patient's terminal, simplifying the overall system architecture by centralizing the sharing functionality and avoiding direct complex interactions between multiple devices.
3Adaptability or versatility
If health information is transformed into images for sharing, then compatibility and ease of transmission are improved, but information precision may be reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The patent captures only the specific portion of the web page that contains the health information needed for sharing, rather than converting the entire web page. This selective capture approach maintains the precision of the relevant medical data while eliminating unnecessary elements, ensuring that the image contains exactly the information required for effective remote consultation.
Data Source
AI summary
A method of displaying health information of a user, the method including: monitoring if a sharing request for a health information of a user is made by an external device, which provides a web page representing the health information of the user in the form of an image; downloading a captured image of the web page from the external device if the sharing request for the health information of the user is made; and displaying the downloaded captured image.
