FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing functions and configuration of an information processing system 1 according to an embodiment. The information processing system 1 includes a treatment device 10, an information management device 40, a management server 50, and a terminal device 60. The treatment apparatus 10 is a surgical operation apparatus that performs treatments such as cutting, sealing, coagulation, and incision of a biological tissue of a subject, and each medical facility owns the treatment apparatus 10. The management server 50 is a server managed by a manufacturer that manufactures and sells the treatment apparatus 10 or a server provided by a cloud service provider. The terminal device 60 is a terminal device used for a person in charge of the manufacturer (hereinafter also referred to as a user).

The treatment apparatus 10 includes a treatment tool 20 and a control unit 30. The treatment instrument 20 includes a probe 21, a jaw (gripping part) 22 having a pad made of resin or the like, an output operation detection part 23, and a storage part 24. A treatment tissue 21a, which is the distal end portion of the probe 21, and a pad of the jaw 22 hold a living tissue to be treated by the subject. In this state, when the output operation detection unit 23 detects an operator's energy output operation on the operation unit (not shown), power is supplied from the control unit 30 to the treatment instrument 20, and an ultrasonic wave based on this power is supplied to the probe 21. , High frequency current, or both. Thereby, ultrasonic energy, thermal energy, or both are output to the treatment part holding the living tissue, and the treatment target is treated.

The storage unit 24 is made of a non-volatile recording medium such as an HDD or SSD, and stores a treatment instrument information table 241. The treatment tool information table 241 stores the type name of the treatment tool 20. In the present embodiment, it is assumed that any type name of “A treatment tool” that can output only ultrasonic energy and “B treatment tool” that can output thermal energy and ultrasonic energy is stored. The treatment tool information table 241 may store identification information (for example, a serial number) for uniquely identifying the treatment tool 20.

The control unit 30 includes a power supply 31, an impedance detection unit 32, a communication unit 33, a control unit 34, and a storage unit 35. The power source 31 supplies power to the treatment instrument 20. The impedance detection unit 32 is electrically connected to the power supply 31 and the control unit 34. The impedance detection unit 32 is a detection circuit, for example, and detects the impedance value of the power supplied from the power supply 31. The communication unit 33 executes communication processing that conforms to a predetermined communication protocol.

The control unit 34 includes a power control unit 341, an error detection unit 343, a probe check execution unit 344, a log output unit 345, a treatment instrument information acquisition unit 346, and a data transmission unit 347. The control unit 34 can be realized by cooperation of hardware resources and software resources, or only by hardware resources. Processors, ROM, RAM, and other LSIs can be used as hardware resources. A CPU, GPU, or the like can be used as the processor. Programs such as operating systems and applications can be used as software resources. When the treatment instrument 20 is connected to the control unit 30, the treatment instrument information acquisition unit 346 reads the type name stored in the treatment instrument information table 241 of the treatment instrument 20. The treatment instrument information acquisition unit 346 stores the read type name as a treatment instrument ID in a setting information table 352 described later.

The power control unit 341 controls the supply of power from the power supply 31. Specifically, when receiving a signal indicating that an energy output operation has been detected from the output operation detection unit 23, the power control unit 341 causes the power supply 31 to supply power to the treatment instrument 20. That is, the power control unit 341 causes the treatment unit 21a to output energy.

By the way, when the energy output to the treatment portion 21a is continued even though the treatment such as cutting of the living tissue is completed, that is, the treatment portion 21a is in a state where the treatment portion 21a and the pad of the jaw 22 are in contact with each other. When the energy output to is continued for a relatively long time, the pad may be worn or thermally deformed. For this reason, the power control unit 341 determines whether or not the treatment target gripped by the treatment unit 21a and the jaw 22 is separated based on the impedance value detected by the impedance detection unit 32. When it is determined that the power control unit 341 has been disconnected, the power supplied from the power supply 31 to the treatment instrument 20 is reduced or stopped, that is, the energy output to the treatment unit 21a is reduced or stopped. At this time, the operator may be notified by voice or message display that the energy output has been reduced or stopped. Hereinafter, such control that automatically changes the energy output is referred to as “automatic output control”. However, some control units 30 do not have this automatic output control.

The error detection unit 343 detects various errors related to energy output. For example, the error detection unit 343 detects an error in the output time abnormality when the energy output to the treatment unit 21a is continued beyond a specified output time (for example, 3 seconds). Further, for example, the error detection unit 343 detects an error of disconnection abnormality when the electrical wiring for supplying power to the treatment instrument 20 is disconnected. Further, for example, the error detection unit 343 detects an error of probe breakage abnormality when the impedance value detected when executing the probe check (described later) is not within a predetermined range.

The probe check execution unit 344 executes a probe check (operation check) when a probe check button (not shown) is pressed. Specifically, power is supplied from the power supply 31 to the treatment instrument 20, and it is checked whether the impedance value at that time is within a predetermined range.

The log output unit 345 outputs an operation log, an error log, and other logs to a log file 353 (described later). In the present embodiment, all logs are described as being output to one log file 353, but may be output to separate files for each log type.

The data transmission unit 347 transmits the log output to the log file 353 to the information management apparatus 40 via the communication unit 33. The timing at which the data transmission unit 347 transmits the log is not particularly limited. For example, the data transmission unit 347 may transmit the log substantially in real time, may transmit the log at a predetermined cycle (for example, 10 minutes), or the user interface unit or the information management apparatus 40 (not shown). A log may be transmitted when instructed via

The storage unit 35 is composed of a nonvolatile recording medium such as an HDD or an SSD, and stores a treatment device information table 351, a setting information table 352, and a log file 353.

The medical facility ID and medical department ID may be registered in advance at the time of initial setting or the like, or may be registered when the treatment apparatus 10 is used for surgery. The treatment tool ID is identification information for identifying the type of the treatment tool, and is the type name of the treatment tool in the present embodiment. The treatment instrument ID may be identification information for uniquely identifying the treatment instrument 20, for example, a serial number of the treatment instrument 20. The treatment instrument ID is registered by the treatment instrument information acquisition unit 346. The surgeon ID is identification information for uniquely identifying the surgeon, and is the name of the surgeon in the present embodiment. The case ID is identification information for uniquely identifying a case, and is a case name in the present embodiment. The operator ID and the case ID are registered when the treatment apparatus 10 is used for surgery. The part ID is identification information for uniquely identifying the part of the living body to be treated by the treatment apparatus 10, and in this embodiment, the part name of the living body (for example, the name of the organ, the name of the region in the organ, the blood vessel name) Etc.). The site ID is registered during the operation according to the progress of the operation.
