JP-2026075546-A - Inspection support system and inspection support program

Abstract

[Problem] To provide a drug inspection support system and a drug inspection support program that can shorten the processing time for identifying drug identification information based on drug inspection images. [Solution] The inspection support system (100) identifies the drug identification information of one or more drugs based on one or more code images that satisfy pre-set selection conditions from among the code images showing the drug identification information of drugs included in inspection images captured by one or more imaging units, and compares the identified drug identification information of the drug to be matched with the drug identification information of the drug included in the matching data to be matched.

Claims (7)

1. A determination processing unit identifies the drug identification information of one or more drugs based on one or more code images that satisfy pre-set selection conditions from among the code images showing drug identification information of drugs contained in inspection images captured by one or more imaging units, A matching processing unit that compares the drug identification information of the drug to be matched, identified by the identification processing unit, with the drug identification information of the drug included in the matching data of the drug to be matched, An inspection support system equipped with the following features.
2. The aforementioned selection criteria include the code image being one in which no parts are missing. The inspection support system according to claim 1.
3. The aforementioned selection criteria include the code image being similar to a pre-set specific shape. The inspection support system according to claim 1.
4. The selection criteria include the fact that the code images in the inspection images are not duplicated. The inspection support system according to claim 1.
5. The identification processing unit determines whether or not there is overlap in the code images in the inspection images based on the multiple inspection images captured by the multiple imaging units and a preset offset value which is the amount of positional shift that occurs between each of the inspection images. The inspection support system according to claim 4.
6. The imaging processing unit is provided with a detection unit that initiates imaging when it detects the presence of a tray on which a drug is placed within a preset area of the imaging range of the imaging unit. An inspection support system according to any one of claims 1 to 5.
7. One or more processors, A selection step in which the drug identification information of one or more drugs is identified based on one or more code images that satisfy pre-set selection conditions from among the code images showing drug identification information of drugs contained in inspection images captured by one or more imaging units, A matching step which involves comparing the drug identification information of the drug to be matched, identified by the aforementioned specific step, with the drug identification information of the drug included in the matching data for the drug to be matched. An inspection support program to enable the execution of this process.

Description

This invention relates to a drug inspection support system and program used to support the work of pharmacists and other personnel in inspecting drugs dispensed based on matching data such as prescription data. In general, inspection support systems are known that are used to assist pharmacists and other personnel in inspecting medications dispensed based on prescription data. Furthermore, in this type of inspection support system, drug identification information may be identified based on code images, such as barcodes, contained in inspection images of the medication (see, for example, Patent Document 1). Japanese Patent Publication No. 2017-058920 Figure 1 is a block diagram showing the configuration of an inspection support system according to an embodiment of the present invention.Figure 2 shows the configuration of an inspection support system according to an embodiment of the present invention.Figure 3 shows the configuration of an inspection support system according to an embodiment of the present invention.Figure 4 is a flowchart showing an example of inspection support processing performed by the inspection support system according to an embodiment of the present invention.Figure 5 is a flowchart showing an example of a matching process performed by the inspection support system according to an embodiment of the present invention.Figure 6 shows an example of an inspection image for an inspection support system according to an embodiment of the present invention.Figure 7 shows an example of the display screen of an inspection support system according to an embodiment of the present invention.Figure 8 shows an example of the display screen of an inspection support system according to an embodiment of the present invention.Figure 9 shows an example of a sheet printed by an inspection support system according to an embodiment of the present invention. The embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the attached drawings to facilitate understanding of the invention. Note that the following embodiments are examples that embody the present invention and do not limit the technical scope of the invention. In these embodiments, the vertical direction D1, the left-right direction D2, and the front-back direction D3 are defined as shown in Figures 2 and 3. [Medical System 1] As shown in Figure 1, the medical system 1 includes an inspection support system 100, a dispensing support system 200, and a claims processing system 300. The inspection support system 100, the dispensing support system 200, and the claims processing system 300 are connected to each other via a network N1 such as a LAN or the Internet. [Pharmacy support system 200] The dispensing support system 200 receives prescription data from a higher-level system such as an electronic medical record system or a prescription order system. The prescription data includes basic information such as patient ID, patient name, gender, age, ward, attending physician, and attending pharmacist, as well as drug information such as the type of medication prescribed to the patient (drug name, drug ID, YJ code, GS1 code, etc.), dosage, administration method, start date of administration, duration of administration, and end date of administration. Based on the prescription data, the dispensing support system 200 generates dispensing data to be used by dispensing equipment such as tablet packaging machines and powder packaging machines, and transmits it to the dispensing equipment. The dispensing support system 200 stores prescription data in a shared format in a pre-configured storage device. This allows the prescription review support system 100 to retrieve the prescription data from the storage device of the dispensing support system 200. It is also conceivable that prescription data could be proactively transmitted from the dispensing support system 200 to the prescription review support system 100. The prescription data retrieved from the dispensing support system 200 may, for example, be data in an original format edited by the dispensing support system 200. Furthermore, the prescription data retrieved by the prescription review support system 100 is not limited to prescription data retrieved by the dispensing support system 200 from a higher-level system; it may also be dispensing data generated by the dispensing support system 200 based on the prescription data. [Medical Claim System 300] The claims system 300 receives medical data, such as medical treatment details and prescription data, from higher-level systems such as electronic medical record systems or prescription order systems. The claims system 300 is then used to support claims processing tasks, such as calculating medical expenses and issuing invoices based on the medical data. Here, the claims processing system 300 stores prescription data in a shared format in a pre-configured storage device. This allows the claims processing support system 100 to retrieve prescr
