IP-based security system is urgently needed

At present, China's health industry is in an important period of reform and development. With the rapid development of the new rural cooperative medical system, urban community health is in the ascendant and the reform of the medical and health system continues to deepen. In general, the health care service environment and quality have greatly improved. However, we have also noticed that in recent years, medical institutions in some localities have suffered medical errors and even medical accidents from time to time, and medical disputes have increased. As a result, incidents that disrupt medical order and hurt medical personnel have been on the rise.

According to incomplete statistics, there were 5093 cases of serious disruption of medical order in the country in 2002, and 69.09 million yuan of hospital property was lost. By 2006, the number of such incidents had increased to 9,831, and the hospital’s property loss was more than 200 million yuan. In some places, there has even been a phenomenon of “doing medical affairs” that involves entanglement and impact on hospitals as a means to seek personal gain. This has seriously affected the trust and understanding that should exist between doctors and patients, and many medical personnel lack a sense of security.

Judging from the hardware facilities of most domestic hospitals, outdated buildings, backward medical equipment, incomplete supporting facilities, and complicated consultation procedures. These are unable to meet the business needs of the hospital in various forms. At present, most domestic hospitals are facing changes, expansions, and new constructions. At the same time, security systems have also been included as an essential item for hospitals.

It is understood that hospitals are paying more and more attention to the security system. The hospital has not only the corresponding functional departments for management, security and transportation security systems, but also has a clear understanding of the system architecture and product positioning that it needs. Lu Shiping, the Infrastructure Office of the First Hospital of Jilin University, said that during the planning of the new building, the hospital began to think about the overall structure of the security system and was concerned about the performance of various products and sought the most suitable products for them. As a place where the product requires a professional, the hospital needs a more professional product, so it takes time to select the product. Some engineering companies and manufacturers have also felt the hospital's awareness of the security system in the past two years, and have greatly broken through the traditional innate thinking. Wang Haigang, vice president of Good Hope Video Technology (China) Co., Ltd., said that many hospitals have realized the importance of security systems and expressed a strong demand for security. Now almost all newly built/reconstructed hospitals have installed this system. Rapidly promoted the development of hospital security.

Concept change, demand especially from the current situation of use in most hospitals, Wu Kang, director of marketing department of Shenzhen Evidence Technology Co., Ltd., said that before the hospital installed security subsystems are separated independently, and even simulation of each building. The monitoring systems are individually managed, which results in a lot of waste of resources. Users also feel that traditional systems cannot meet their diverse needs in terms of functional and technical parameters during use. Many users think that traditional analog surveillance systems cannot meet the requirements of their “digital hospitals” and gradually turn their attention to network monitoring systems.

The digital engineering of the hospital integrates all the business processes and information resources of the hospital into a digital network to achieve unified platform management and resource sharing. In this context, the digitalization of hospital security systems is actually imperative. In addition, with the development of security technology, the traditional security system has been difficult to meet the needs of the application, which has become an important reason for hospital digital security system.

“At present, video surveillance for hospitals is not only a need for security, but has been raised to the management of the hospital, medical care, and service applications,” Wang Haigang, vice president of Capesize, pointed out that with the increase of bandwidth, the acceptability of resources is also relatively improve. The video image has been upgraded to the height of an application platform. The images collected by the hospital through the monitoring equipment are transmitted to different terminals via the command center. According to the authority, each department needs them: the resources for security are generally from public places and are transmitted to the security department. However, in case of emergencies, the emergency command needs to be transmitted to the dean for on-site management at the first time; in addition, it is used for video conference/playback of multimedia conferences and teaching; monitoring and visiting of critically ill patients.

“Digital hospitals are about the performance of information, network, and digital. Digital storage of networked monitoring systems is also one of the digital hospitals, so we have also been very concerned about the development of networked systems,” said Jilin University First Hospital. Lu Shiping said.

For a system with multiple requirements, ACTi's sales manager Zhou Chen said that the current "digital hospital" has been advocated by many hospitals, and the hospital's demand for this has now been revealed, especially the hospital's funds are sufficient. The acceptance of new things is relatively higher. Usually a top-three hospital has a very large area, and with many buildings and high floors, hospital leaders cannot manage incidents at each location at the same time. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a network management that can improve work efficiency and complete a unified command center. platform.

Networked products add value to digital hospitals Currently in hospitals, in addition to some traditional security areas, some new applications have become more and more widely used. Among them, most attention is given to surgical teaching, emergency command, remote monitoring/visiting, etc. . These requirements pose new challenges for monitoring products. The most critical requirements for products are digital and networked. Network monitoring from the viewing point of view, with excellent features anytime, anywhere, there is no networked products, these requirements are mostly difficult to achieve. Wen Jun, product manager of B2B sales and market development department of Sony China Professional Systems Group, stated that many hospitals still use analog systems, mainly hemispherical cameras, which are not too conspicuous in shape and have higher safety and stability. . For hospital professional systems, such as remote command, surgical teaching, remote monitoring/visiting, etc., there is a need for products with networking capabilities that cannot be met by traditional products.

Huang Yiwei, medical manager of Beijing Powerlink Technology Co., Ltd., believes that the rapid development of video communication technology has brought new opportunities for hospitals to realize remote visual teaching. Large and medium-sized hospitals urgently need to establish high-quality hospital clinical network video teaching systems. At present, the integration of the hospital's business applications and the basic information platform is becoming a new trend in the development of large and medium-sized hospital services.

The network monitoring system is based on the TCP/IP protocol, which fully solves the problem of transmission of voice, video, and data on the network, and can meet the requirements that more traditional security systems cannot meet. Wu Jingyao, product manager of PowerLink, added that with the continuous improvement of network bandwidth, some hospitals have realized Gigabit-to-Desktop and 10-Gigabit backbone network architectures, and some mainstream network equipment vendors have also launched one-hundred trillion megabits. The development of wireless network is also very rapid in the core equipment. Wireless is a good complement to inconvenient locations for wiring. Realizing the real-time interaction of voice, video, and data over the network has become possible.

At present, the maximum resolution of analog cameras can only reach 540 lines, and the picture presented is rather vague. For digital hospitals that need long-distance consultations, surgical observations and other business systems that require high-definition video support, they cannot meet such high requirements. Zhou Chen, an ACTI sales manager, believes that the network video system has the characteristics of vivid color reproduction, good backlight compensation, sufficient definition, and good voice quality. And through POE transmission, middle lines can be saved, random distribution, convenient access to the nearest. From the point of view of technology development, the megapixel camera of digital surveillance products will be the most suitable choice, which can not only provide high-definition picture quality that analog video cannot match, but also facilitate the integration with digital systems.

As for the application of network video surveillance systems, Wang Haigang, vice president of Capesize, believes that network video and voice processing systems have penetrated into the field of medical services after solving the needs for large-scale, large-scale monitoring of networking and multi-level complex management. For the medical industry customers solved a variety of practical business needs. Therefore, in this sense, the application of network video systems can no longer be called security and surveillance applications, but a digital communication system that integrates video, audio, and data multimedia streams.

Products are more humane In addition to considering the business needs of the hospital, in the design of products, manufacturers also take more consideration of the needs of patients and medical staff, and pay more and more attention to humanized design. Tang Bang, general manager of Lai Bang Technology, stated that compared with other security systems, the greatest feature of hospital security lies in its humanity and intelligence. For example, the infusion alarm system from Bang State can automatically alarm and break the infusion tube when the infusion is completed, which can greatly improve nurses' work efficiency and can effectively prevent the occurrence of blood backflow, embodying the characteristics of its intelligence and humanization.

In addition, GE Security also designed a very user-friendly “nursing call system” for inconvenient mobility of hospitalized patients. According to Li Dong, the product manager of the company, the most important feature of this “nursing call system” is that it embodies the convenience of digital hospitals and improves the efficiency of hospital management. In the past, this "nurse calling system" was a relatively simple system, and GE's system was very rich in humanized design. For example, in order to ensure that each patient's call can be processed in time, when the patient calls to a nurse station, if the nurse station is not responding, the system will automatically transfer to another nurse station, and a nurse station can call and manage several points. Can also be converted to wireless devices, such as mobile phones or PDAs, which puts high demands on the system's computing power.

The service relationship between doctors and patients, for the time being, is not too satisfactory. For example, if a patient calls for a long time and there is no service, and the nurse also interprets the shortage of manpower, the management of the nurse can also be improved through this system. When the patient presses the call button to the nurse, the system will pass the software statistics. The tool's response time to the nurse can be used to calculate how quickly the nurse responds. At the same time, the system can also use wireless system solutions. After a doctor or nurse enters the ward, the doctor or nurse's breastplate and bedside equipment senses through the ultrasonic induction method. The number can be automatically read and stored at the nurse call station. Post time.

In the appearance design of the pager, there are also a variety of models for the patient to choose from, there are installed in the bed, pillow, hand, etc., there is a remote control, or a large, round sensor can be type, emergency ward The sensor placed in the breathing mask is called by means of rapid breathing. Based on the needs of the hospital, the volume of the call is also adjustable at night. The choices of different ways are all for the convenience of the patients and the realization that the patients can feel humane service in the hospital. Through this set of humanized systems, the hospital can help improve management efficiency, make patients feel good about the hospital, and reduce doctor-patient disputes. At the same time, the system's management of personnel will enable the staff to improve work efficiency, measure the work attitude and working conditions of staff, and maximize the use of existing resources.
