The invention relates to a monitor remote control method and system thereof, particularly to a monitor remote control method and system thereof using a mobile terminal.
ECG, body temperature, blood pressure and other physiological parameters of the human body and its changes are common parameters used by doctors to diagnose the disease. In order to determine the aforementioned body parameters, clinical monitors came into being. Early clinical monitors used a stand-alone machine, that is to say, doctors needed to monitor a variety of physiological parameters of the patient around him in real-time. However, this not only increased the workload of doctors but also reduced the efficiency of doctors when the patient is under the stable conditions, in the case that the patient's condition suddenly deteriorated, it may also cause that the doctor cannot know sign parameter information in the first time, which delays the valuable treatment time of the patient and may even lead to worse consequences.
Telemonitoring has been an important development direction in a telemedicine research field in recent years, and integrated electronic information technology, communications technology, computer technology and medical engineering as a whole. Remote monitoring is a method in which the physiological functions of a distant object are studied through continuous monitoring for physiological parameters, and the object can receive the treatment from the doctors and specialists in a timely fashion when he has abnormal physiological functions. With the improvement of people's living standards, people begin to more and more care high quality medical service, and hope to still receive the monitoring and treatment when they are at home and travelling.
The rapid development of wireless communication technology and the increasing levels of software design currently enable wireless communication between a monitor and a mobile terminal. For example, Patent No. 200710003350.3 with the title of “A Remote Wireless ECG Monitor in Real Time” has solved problem of monitoring patient information signs in real time in a mobile terminal with GSM/GPRS or CDMA wireless digital communication technology. Currently, between the monitor and the mobile terminal, the care information of the patient only can be sent to the mobile terminal, when medical staffs are not in the patient's bedside but would like to know the real-time status of the patient, the patient's information on the monitor can be transmitted to the mobile terminal by wireless means, and the medical staffs can browse patient information parameters through the mobile terminal, however, if the monitor need be operated, for example, when the information such as the set parameters of the monitor obviously does not match with the cared patients or the patient information (including: name, gender, responsibility doctor, blood type, etc.) need be input into the monitor, the health care need directly set the monitor in the patient's bedside, which is very inconvenient.
