QR Code Device Usage Verification for Surgical Instrument Safety
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing surgical instruments require high technical skill and manual management, leading to a steep learning curve and increased management costs and inefficiencies in surgical assistance systems.
Innovation Solution
A device management method using QR codes and a backend server to verify device usage times, ensuring that a usage verification code is obtained only if usage safety requirements are met, enabling automatic management of devices in surgical assistance systems.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If manual management method is used for devices in surgical assistance system, then device operation flexibility is maintained, but management costs increase and management efficiency decreases
Solution Approach 1:
The system enables automatic self-management of surgical devices through QR code scanning and automated verification. The terminal device automatically scans QR codes on devices, and the backend server automatically verifies usage times and generates verification codes without manual intervention, allowing the system to manage itself
Solution Approach 2:
The patent replaces manual mechanical management processes with automated electronic systems. Manual tracking and verification of device usage is substituted by electronic QR code scanning, automated server-side verification, and digital verification code generation, eliminating the need for manual record-keeping
2Reliability
If usage verification is not implemented, then device accessibility is improved, but usage safety requirements are compromised
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces an intermediary verification system using QR codes and verification codes. Instead of direct access or complete restriction, the system uses QR codes as intermediaries for device identification and verification codes as intermediaries for authorization, mediating between safety requirements and ease of access
Solution Approach 2:
The system performs preliminary verification of usage times before allowing device access. The backend server checks whether the number of times the surgical device has been used meets safety requirements before generating a verification code, preventing unsafe usage in advance

AI summary
The present disclosure provides a device management method and related apparatus, including: obtaining, by a backend server, target QR code information transmitted by a terminal device, the target QR code information is obtained through scanning a plurality of target QR codes by a scanning interface of the terminal device under a user account, and the target QR codes are respectively arranged on a plurality of target devices; determining, by the backend server, usage times corresponding to each of the target devices based on the target QR code information; generating by the backend server a usage verification code for using the target devices and transmitting the usage verification code to the terminal device, if the usage times meet usage safety requirements; preventing the backend server from generating the usage verification code, if the usage times do not meet the requirements. Therefore, management costs can be reduced, and efficiency can be improved.
