DETAILED DESCRIPTION

For clearer descriptions of the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the present disclosure, the embodiments of present disclosure will be further described in details hereinafter with reference to the accompanying drawings.

FIG. 1 is a schematic structural diagram of a bedside card device in the related art. The bedside card device used in the hospital includes a card slot 11 disposed on a device belt 60, and a bedside card made of plastic or paper. On the card, various related data of a patient are recorded.

However, when the data on the bedside card device need to be updated, the old bedside card will be discarded and a new one needs to be refilled, causing low update efficiency and waste of resources.

In addition, with the in-depth construction of medical informatization, currently, nosocomial information systems including Hospital Information System (HIS) and Nursing Information System (NIS) have been introduced in most domestic hospitals. However, the traditional bedside card cannot interact with such nosocomial information systems, causing disconnection of information in the medical system.

FIG. 2 is a schematic structural diagram of a bedside card device according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. The bedside card device 20 includes an electronic bedside card 21 and a fixing assembly 22.

The electronic bedside card 21 includes a housing 211, a data connection circuit 212 and a display screen 213. The display screen 213 is disposed on the housing 211, and the data connection circuit 212 is electrically connected to the display screen 213.

The fixing assembly 22 includes a bracket 221 and a connecting member 222, wherein the bracket 221 is provided with a mounting slot 221a having a shape conforming to the housing 211, and the connecting member 222 is disposed on the bracket 221 and is configured to connect to a mounting portion.

FIG. 2 shows the case in which the electronic bedside card 21 is not inserted into the fixing assembly 22. In this case, the electronic bedside card 21 may be operated by a medical staff, a patient, or a family member of a patient. For example, a medical staff may operate the electronic bedside card to update the related information of a patient, which is convenient and quick to operate.

As shown in FIG. 3, which is a schematic structural diagram showing the case that the electronic bedside card 21 is inserted into the fixing assembly 22, the mounting slot 221a is engaged with the housing 211, so as to keep the housing 211 fixed.

Exemplarily, as shown in FIG. 4, which is a left side view of the bedside card device shown in FIG. 3, the electronic bedside card 21 is disposed in the mounting slot of the bracket 221 of the fixing assembly, and the display screen 213 of the electronic bedside card 21 can display various information, so that the medical staff, the patient, and the family member of the patient can conveniently watch the display to learn the information.

Here, the data connection circuit may be disposed in the housing and establish communication with an external data provider, and update information (e.g., information related to the patient) displayed by the display screen based on the data communication with the data provider.

In summary, the embodiments of the present disclosure provide a bedside card device including an electronic bedside card and a fixing assembly. The fixing assembly may be connected to the mounting portion by a connecting member. The electronic bedside card can display information related to the patient by the display screen on the housing, and update the information displayed on the display screen conveniently by the data connection circuit. Furthermore, the electronic bedside card can be conveniently removed from the mounting slot of the fixing assembly, and is easy to operate, thereby providing a more convenient bedside card over the related art.

In some embodiments, the connecting member 222 is a screw connecting member (i.e., the fixing assembly 22 may be connected to the mounting portion by a screw), or the connecting member 222 is an adhesive plate. The mounting slot 221a may be an inserting slot.

The mounting portion may be a device belt, a wall, or other structures for mounting the fixing assembly in a hospital.

In some embodiments, the fixing assembly includes a power supply circuitry disposed on the bracket, the electronic bedside card includes a power source circuitry disposed on the housing, and the power source circuitry matches with the power supply circuitry.

In a first configuration, as shown in FIG. 5, which is a schematic structural diagram of another bedside card device according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, a modified device based on the bedside card device shown in FIG. 2 is provided.

In some embodiments, the power supply circuitry 223 on the bracket 221 includes a third conductive terminal 223a and a power supply line 223b. The power supply line 223b is electrically connected to the third conductive terminal 223a, and the third conductive terminal 223a is disposed in the mounting slot 221a. The power supply line 223b may be connected to an external power line (e.g., a power line with a voltage ranging from 100 V to 220 V). Or, the power supply line 223b may be connected to a battery provided in the fixing assembly, which can supply power to the electronic bedside card as an emergency power source in a case that the external power line is powered off, thereby improving the usage time of the electronic bedside card when there is no external power supply.

The power source circuitry includes a fourth conductive terminal 214 disposed outside the housing 211, and in the case that the housing 211 is disposed in the mounting slot 221a, the fourth conductive terminal 214 is in contact with the third conductive terminal 223a on the bracket 221. The fourth conductive terminal 214 is electrically connected to the display screen 213 to supply power to the display screen 213.

In this way, a wired data transmission function can be achieved via the second conductive terminal and the first conductive terminal in the mounting slot, thereby achieving the effect of updating the data displayed on the electronic bedside card via the data transmission line in the device belt based on the wired data transmission function. Here, the data connection circuit 212 may include a control circuit or a processor to process the received data.

As such, the fourth conductive terminal may be electrically connected to the data transmission line. That is, the fourth conductive terminal may both act as a conductive terminal for supplying power and act as an interface for transmitting information, which can save space and simplify the structure of the electronic bedside card. In this case, the second conductive terminal and the fourth conductive terminal which are formed as an integrated member may be electrically connected to both the data connection circuit and the display screen, so as to supply power to the data connection circuit and the display screen, and transmit data to the data connection circuit.

Accordingly, the third conductive terminal and the first conductive terminal in the mounting slot of the fixing assembly may also be an integrated member.
