Description

[0001]
TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a drug history book created in a pharmacy that dispenses prescription drugs, and in addition to a drug history and a dispensing record, a drug history sheet is created by photographing and recording symptoms of a patient that can be visually confirmed. It is related to the system that performs.
[0002]
[Prior art]
A patient who is examined at a medical institution such as a hospital or a clinic is prescribed a medicine by a doctor, and given the medicine at a pharmacy inside or outside the hospital.
[0003]
Drugs usually have efficacy and side effects, and a physician or pharmacist must give a proper explanation to the patient about the effects of prescription drugs on injuries and illnesses, and the initial symptoms and management of possible side effects. Therefore, conventionally, a pharmacist handed a medication instruction book describing drug information such as how to use the drug, side effects, and precautions to the patient, and gave oral guidance on the medication. It has been done to be able to avoid.
[0004]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
However, it has been difficult for patients who do not have specialized medical knowledge to be aware of changes in symptoms that gradually change every day and initial symptoms of side effects. In addition, in order for a pharmacist to perform drug diagnosis and medication guidance according to individual patient's symptoms, there is a need for a means for objectively judging symptoms related to the action and side effects of the drug.
[0005]
The present invention has been made in order to solve the above-mentioned problems, and to record the symptoms of the action and side effects of the drug apparently appearing on the patient, and to perform appropriate drug diagnosis and medication instruction tailored to the patient. It provides a means of creating a drug history book that is useful for:
[0006]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
Therefore, according to the present invention, a camera is installed at the counter of the pharmacy, the affected part, the complexion, the whole body, the condition of the skin, and the like of the patient receiving the medicine are photographed, and the image is pasted on the medicine log.
[0007]
When the patient comes to the office, take an image of the affected area, etc., and record the image in the drug history record, if the effect of the drug has appeared compared to the previous time, whether the symptoms have not progressed, or It is possible to visually and objectively check whether or not a side effect such as a rash has occurred.
[0008]
By connecting the terminal to the camera, the image data can be quickly and easily pasted, and not only a still image but also a moving image can be easily incorporated into the medicine log.
[0009]
In addition, a drug history database is stored in a server provided at the institution that supervises drug information, and a terminal such as a personal computer of a medical institution or a patient himself is connected to the server via the Internet, and the drug history is stored. If it can be browsed, doctors and patients themselves can also share the information of the medicine history record that records images and moving images of the affected part and the like.
[0010]
BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION
An embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
[0011]
FIG. 1 shows an example of a facility configuration for implementing the present invention.
[0012]
The pharmacy terminal 2 is installed in the pharmacy 20, and is connected to the camera 3 provided at the window. As the pharmacy terminal 2, an ordinary personal computer or the like having a control device, a communication device, an input device, and a display device is used. The pharmacy terminal 2 creates a drug history book of a patient. The camera 3 is a digital camera capable of capturing at least a short-time moving image, and one or a plurality of cameras are provided according to the number of windows so that data of the captured image or moving image can be transmitted to the pharmacy terminal 2. Have been.
[0013]
In addition, a drug history database storing drug history data for each patient is stored in a server 9 installed in an organization that manages and manages drug information and the like, and is stored in the server from the pharmacy terminal 2 via the Internet. 9 can be connected. Then, when the pharmacy terminal 2 creates a drug history record for each patient and sends it to the server 9, the drug history record can be recorded in the drug history database in the server 9, and the pharmacy terminal 2 can be recorded. , The contents stored in the drug history database can be browsed. Furthermore, using the medical terminal 4 installed in the medical institution 40, or the terminal 5 such as a personal computer 51 or a mobile terminal device 52 of a medical person or a patient, the server 9 is connected to the server 9 via the Internet. You can browse the drug history database. In this case, each user has an authentication means such as an ID symbol and a password, and the server 9 identifies each user so that the server 9 can connect to only data in a range corresponding to authority of each user. Is done.
[0014]
FIG. 2 shows a procedure for implementing the present invention.
[0015]
When the patient visits the pharmacy 20 and submits a prescription, the pharmacist diagnoses the compatibility of the prescription drug and performs dispensing, as well as the affected part and complexion, the whole body, the state of the skin such as the face and limbs, the shape of the limbs, and the like. The camera 3 captures an image of a part corresponding to the type of injury or illness of the patient and the nature of the medicine. When the patient's symptoms are related to the movement of the body or the like, shooting with a moving image is performed.
[0016]
The data of the captured image or moving image is transmitted from the camera 3 to the pharmacy terminal 2 and is pasted to a predetermined location of a drug history book in which patient's insurance card information, drug history, dispensing record, and the like are recorded.
[0017]
The medicine history book thus created is transmitted to the server 9 via the Internet, and is recorded in the medicine history database in the server 9.
[0018]
The contents of the drug history database recorded in the server 9 include the medical terminal 4 installed in the medical institution 40, the personal computer 51 owned by a doctor who performs round-trip and home visits or the patient, or the mobile terminal device. For example, the patient can browse his or her drug history book to be aware of changes in symptoms or to confirm the presence or absence of side effects, because the user can browse using the terminal 5 that can be connected to the Internet, such as 52. be able to. In addition, the pharmacist and the physician can diagnose the recovery condition and the progress of the patient's injury and illness over time and objectively by browsing the drug history sheet on which the image or the video is pasted at the pharmacy 20 or the medical institution 40. Can be.

Note that the camera 3 used in the present invention is not limited to a digital camera, but may be a camera using a film, an instant camera, or the like. In such a case, a printed photo may be pasted on a drug history book printed on paper or the like. Alternatively, a printed photo may be read by a scanner and digitized data may be incorporated into an electronic medication history.
[0020]
In the case where the drug history database is stored in the storage device of the pharmacy terminal 2 instead of the server 9 of the external institution, the photographed image or moving image is used by the medical institution 40 for creating an electronic medical record or the like. The data may be shared by transmitting the data to the medical terminal 4 which is in use.
[0021]
【The invention's effect】
