Inspection support method and inspection support device
An object of the present invention is to provide an inspection support method and an inspection support device capable of easily inspecting packaged medicines. In accordance with the inspection support method and the inspection support device according to an aspect of the present invention, since images of packaged medicines and identification information items and quantities of medicines extracted from a prescription are displayed on a display device (display unit), a user can easily check whether or not the packaged medicines match those written in the prescription. Since master images are registered in a case where the determination of “whether or not identification information items and quantities of the packaged medicines match the identification information items and quantities which are extracted from the prescription and are displayed” is positive for all the medicines written in the prescription, it is possible to reduce a concern that inappropriate images will be registered as the master images. It is easy to align imaging conditions between the master images and collating target images, and it is possible to increase collation accuracy.
1. An inspection support method comprising:
obtaining first images which are images of packaged medicines;
extracting identification information items and quantities of medicines written in a prescription;
displaying the obtained first images and the extracted identification information items and quantities on a display device;
determining whether or not identification information items and quantities of the packaged medicines match the displayed identification information items and quantities based on an instruction input of a user including a) displaying for each medicine in the written prescription, one or more buttons for verifying a medicine type and quantity of the medicine type; b) accepting a user input for verification via the one or more buttons, and c) providing a positive determination when it is determined that the user activates a positive one of the buttons and providing a negative determination when the user activates a negative one of the buttons, the user verification occurring before a second matching performed by a processor;
registering the first images as master images in a case where the determination result is positive for all the medicines written in the prescription; and
collating whether or not the medicines packaged in each packaging bag match the medicines written in the prescription based on the registered master images and second images which are images obtained for each packaging bag.
2. The inspection support method according to claim 1 , further comprising:
storing the images and the identification information items in association with each other for the medicines included in the inspected packaging bag in a first storage device; and
obtaining the images of the medicines written in the prescription while referring to the first storage device based on the extracted identification information items,
wherein the images of the medicines obtained are displayed.
3. The inspection support method according to claim 1 , further comprising:
obtaining attribute information items of the medicines written in the prescription while referring to a second storage device that stores the attribute information items of the medicines based on the extracted identification information items,
wherein the obtained attribute information items are displayed on the display device.
4. The inspection support method according to claim 3 ,
wherein the attribute information includes at least one of a medicine type, a shape, a dimension, a color, or a stamp of the medicine.
5. The inspection support method according to claim 1 ,
wherein a plurality of images obtained by imaging the packaged medicines in a plurality of different directions is obtained as the first images, and
the plurality of images obtained as the first images is displayed.
6. The inspection support method according to claim 1 , further comprising:
outputting a warning in a case where the collating is not able to be performed and the medicines packaged in each packaging bag do not match the medicines written in the prescription as the result of the collating.
7. An inspection support device comprising:
at least one processor circuit configured to:
obtain first images which are images of packaged medicines;
extract identification information items and quantities of medicines written in a prescription;
control a display to display the obtained first images and the extracted identification information items and quantities;
determine whether or not identification information items and quantities of the packaged medicines match the displayed identification information items and quantities based on an instruction input of a user including a) displaying for each medicine in the written prescription, one or more buttons for verifying a medicine type and quantity of the medicine type; b) accepting a user input for verification via the one or more buttons, and c) providing a positive determination when it is determined that the user activates a positive one of the buttons and providing a negative determination when the user activates a negative one of the buttons, the user verification occurring before a second matching performed by the processor circuit;
register the first images as master images in a case where the determination result is positive for all the medicines written in the prescription; and
collate whether or not the medicines packaged in each packaging bag match the medicines written in the prescription based on the registered master images and second images which are images obtained for each packaging bag.
