Definitions
- the present invention concerns an apparatus for the management of the physical state of a person in assisted self-treatment regimen.
- a person in assisted self-treatment regimen needs the periodic administration of several products, either pharmaceutical or not, at pre- established times. This is done in response to the physical state of the person, that must continuously be estimated in order to verify its improvement or worsening in such way that, according to its value, one can proceed with a higher or lower administration of products already in use or to the administration of different products.
- Scope of the present invention is to provide an apparatus for the management of the physical state of a person in assisted self-treatment regimen that allows to facilitate the carrying out of the aforesaid task.
- an apparatus for the management of the physical state of a person in assisted self-treatment regimen characterised in that it comprises: a) a computer provided with a management software and at least a database for the recording of clinical rules and information on the physical state of said person; b) means for the measurement of the physical state of the person connected with said computer; c) at least one reader for the reading of codes of drugs, food integrators or other products, said reader being connected with said computer; d) containers with controlled access suitable to store said drugs, integrators or other products; e) enablers controlled by said computer in order to enable the access to one or more containers selected among said containers; said computer being able to control said enablers in response to the reading of the code of a drug or other on behalf of said reader, or in response to the combination of the information concerning the physical state of the person coming from said measurement means and of said clinical rules.
- Figure 1 is a schematic view of an apparatus for the management of the physical state of a person in assisted self-treatment regimen according to the present invention.
- the apparatus comprises a computer 1 provided with a management software and with a database in which there are contained information on the physical state of the person in assisted self-treatment regimen and clinical rules dictated by a physician or another health operator or even by a delegated relative or a therapist (as for instance trainer).
- a unit 2 for the measurement and evaluation of the physical state of the person is connected with the computer 1 through a wire or wireless transmission device; such unit 2 can comprise a meter of the pressure and of the vital parameters, an electrocardiograph, a blood test device, a scale or any other meter of the physical state.
- the measurement unit 2 sends to computer 1 the information regarding the physical state of the person in assisted self-treatment regimen together with the period of time in which the recording has been taken; such information is processed by the same computer 1 and input in the aforesaid database.
- a reader 3 for the reading of the drag or food integrators or other which must be stored in controlled access containers 4 is also connected with the computer 1, through a wire or wireless transmission device.
- Enablers 5 are also connected with the computer 1 that are suitable to enable the access to one or more selected containers for the insertion or the withdrawal of a certain drug or integrator or other.
- the enabling can consist in the activation of a device for the opening of the container or, as an alternative, if the containers are provided with LED or sound devices, the enablers 5 can signal the exact container for the insertion or the withdrawal of the drug by means of light or sound signal.
- Appropriate sensors 7 are provided for each container that are suitable to signal the access to the single containers 4. Said sensors are connected with the computer 1 for the recording of the access having taken place for the withdrawal or the insertion of the drug, integrator or other. There is also provided a sound or optical device 6 connected with the computer 1 that emits alarm signals in the case in which the sensors 7 signal the access to a wrong container 4.
- the operations that can be carried out by such apparatus are therefore those for the insertion and withdrawal of a drug or an integrator or other.
- the operation of insertion of the drug or other takes place against the reading of the code of the drug or other by means of the reader 6 connected with the computer 1 to which the data relative to the aforesaid reading is sent.
- the computer 1 consequently controls the opening of one or more selected containers 4 through the enablers 5, or it signals the same selected containers 4 through light or sound signal for the opening on behalf of the user and the insertion of the drug or other. If a non-enabled container 4 is opened, the alarm device 6 signals it immediately.
- the operation of withdrawal of the drug or other takes place against detection of the physical state of the person through the measurement unit 2 in a determined period of time; the information coming from the measurement unit 2 is sent to the computer 1.
- the latter according to the physical state and the detected clinical rules controls the enablers 5 for the opening of one or more selected containers 4 or it signals the same selected containers 4 through light or sound signal for the opening by the user and the withdrawal of the drag or other.
- the computer 1 memorises such opening by means of the appropriate sensors 7.
- the computer 1 preferably comprises means to provide information on the outside, for instance to a physician or other health operator, and this preferably takes place by connection with other computers through the Internet or by telephone.
- a drug or other whose code is read by the appropriate reader 2 is taken by the person in assisted self-treatment regimen without the insertion of the same in a container 4; in such case the administration of the drug or other will be recorded by the computer 1.
