Solution Overview

Problem

Existing medical document management systems face challenges in efficiently accumulating and searching knowledge due to fluctuating description formats, poor readability, and difficulty in integrating diverse expressions, leading to incomplete data collection and imperfect analysis.

Innovation Solution

A medical document management system that utilizes knowledge management means with structured knowledge trees, reference links, and inheritance of attribute descriptions to standardize and categorize knowledge entries, enabling flexible search and inference.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If a high degree of freedom in description format is allowed, then flexibility in describing knowledge is improved, but description format consistency deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveflexibility in describing knowledgeVSAvoiddescription format consistency
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSStability of the object's composition

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies parameter changes by transforming the description format from free-text to a structured template-based format with defined parameters. The template includes specific fields such as symptom names, test findings, disease names, and treatment information, which standardize the representation of medical knowledge while maintaining the ability to capture diverse medical information through the flexible template structure.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

2Ease of manufacture

If multiple description formats are mixed, then ease of construction is improved, but readability deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveease of constructionVSAvoidreadability
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of manufactureVSDifficulty of detecting and measuring

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies homogeneity by enforcing a uniform template structure across all medical knowledge descriptions. Every knowledge entry follows the same standardized format with consistent fields and organization, eliminating the mixture of different description formats. This homogeneous structure significantly improves readability and makes it easy to parse and process the information systematically.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #33Homogeneity

3Ease of operation

If free text descriptions are used, then ease of operation is improved, but data analysis completeness deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveease of creating documentsVSAvoiddata analysis completeness
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSLoss of information

Solution Approach 1:

The patent transforms free-text descriptions into structured parameter-based entries with specific fields for symptoms, test findings, disease names, and treatments. This parameterization ensures that all critical medical information is captured in standardized categories, making the data complete and suitable for systematic analysis while remaining easy to operate through the template-guided input process.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

AI summary

A knowledge entry management is configured to manage a knowledge entry. The knowledge entry includes a knowledge entry attribute description management configured to store and manage an attribute description about the knowledge entry. The knowledge entry attribute description management includes a reference link from the attribute description to another knowledge entry or an attribute description of the other knowledge entry. The knowledge management reference link is configured to, when creating a medical document, make a reference link usable as a word or phrase to describe details of the medical document.
