Solution Overview

Problem

Existing systems for viewing and managing electronic medical records are complex, making it difficult for users to access chronological changes and perform treatments, especially on diverse user terminals like tablets and mobile phones, due to their library-like structure and separate window display based on date or type of information.

Innovation Solution

A method of displaying medical information based on allocated resource, involving data processing capacity assessment, user-defined viewing modes, and filtering to optimize information display based on resource capabilities.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If medical information is displayed through a separate window based on date or type, then information can be organized by categories, but it becomes difficult for users to check chronological changes and the interface becomes complex

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveease of accessing chronological changesVSAvoidinterface complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent merges the display of medical information from separate windows into a single integrated timeline view. The timeline interface combines chronological ordering with the ability to filter by type, allowing users to see all medical records in sequence while still having the option to filter by category. This eliminates the need to switch between separate windows for different date ranges or types, directly reducing interface complexity while improving ease of accessing chronological changes.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent segments the medical information display into a hierarchical structure where the main timeline shows all records chronologically, and filtering options are provided as overlays or side panels rather than separate windows. Users can segment the view by type, date range, or other criteria without leaving the main timeline context, maintaining a unified interface while providing organized access to information.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

2Adaptability or versatility

If the system is designed for comprehensive information access, then all medical records can be viewed, but accessibility is limited for users without expertise and on diverse terminals

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveaccessibility across diverse terminalsVSAvoiduser accessibility
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements a dynamic interface that automatically adapts to different terminal types (mobile phones, tablets, desktops) by adjusting the display layout, interaction methods, and default filter settings based on the device detected. The timeline view dynamically reconfigures to fit the screen size and user preferences, making the system versatile across diverse terminals while maintaining ease of operation for users without expertise through intuitive interactions.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The system changes key parameters of the interface such as default time ranges, display density, and interaction methods based on user expertise level and terminal capabilities. For example, it can adjust the granularity of chronological display, the default filter settings, and the level of detail shown based on detected user characteristics and device type, thereby improving accessibility across different user groups and platforms.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

3Quantity of substance

If all medical information is displayed, then complete information is available, but the data amount exceeds the processing capability of resources with limited capacity

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedata amountVSAvoidresource processing capability
Core Design Contradiction:
Quantity of substanceVSPower

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies partial action by selectively displaying only the necessary portion of medical information based on the detected resource capacity. When a device has limited processing power or display capabilities, the system automatically filters to show only the most relevant records or a subset of the data, rather than attempting to display all available information. This ensures that the displayed data量 remains within the processing capability of the resource while still providing sufficient information for effective use.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #16Partial or excessive action

AI summary

A method for displaying medical information based on the resources allocated to the medical information display includes calculating the amount of data that can be processed by the resources, identifying the medical information that needs to be processed by the resources according to the viewing mode requested by the user, and if the data amount of the identified medical information is greater than the calculated data amount, displaying the remaining medical information excluding some of the information.
