Abstract

Now, Korean health technology and health service is proud to be world class one at a level of not falling behind anywhere in the world. However, this health service has been provided, centering on hospital or medical staff, not patient so far. And there is a tendency to gradually change into patient-centered health service. According to the results of survey performed by Korea Institute for Health and Social Affairs, it was reported that, as of 2016, 30% or more of inpatients were not sufficiently given information relating to hospital rounds, and in particular, 50% or more of inpatients in their twenties to thirties expressed discontent, and approximately 17% of inpatients in their seventies and beyond expressed discontent. In the light of these data, especially inpatients in their twenties to thirties want information relating to hospital rounds and the like. And taking into consideration that they are characterized by being accustomed to using a smartphone, it is intended to design and implement a hospital rounds information smartphone application. Now, in some of medium and large hospitals, information about hospital is provided through smartphone application. However, the main purpose is hospital information or outpatient's appointment to see a doctor and so on. Even in case of providing information about hospital rounds, only information about approximate time to make rounds is provided. This paper is intended to design and implement hospital rounds information system making it possible to check their turn when rounds are made by utilizing NFC function in smart phone.

현재 대한민국의 의료 기술과 의료 서비스는 세계 어디에서도 뒤처지지 않을 정도로 세계적인 수준을 자랑하고 있다. 하지만 이러한 의료서비스는 아직까지 환자중심이 아닌 병원 또는 의료진을 중심으로 이루어져 있으며 조금씩 환자 중심의 의료 서비스로 변화하고 있는 추세이다. 한국보건사회 연구원의 조사 결과에 따르면 2016년 현재 병원 입원 환자 중 30%이상이 회진과 관련된 정보를 충분히 제공받지 못했고 특히 2~30대 환자의 50%이상이 불만을 표시 하였고 70대 이상에서는 17% 정도가 불만을 표시 했다고 한다. 이러한 자료를 비추어 볼 때 특히 2~30대가 회진등과 관련된 정보를 바라고 있으며 이들은 스마트 폰 사용에 익숙하다는 특징을 고려하여 회진정보 스마트 폰 애플리케이션을 설계 구현하고자 한다. 현재 일부 중 대형 병원에서는 스마트 폰 애플리케이션을 통해서 병원 정보를 제공하고 있으나 병원 안내 또는 외래환자의 진료 예약 등이 주요 목적이며 회진 정보를 제공하는 경우에도 대략적인 회진 시간만을 제공하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 스마트 폰에 있는 NFC 기능을 활용해서 회진 시 자신의 순서를 확인할 수 있는 병원 회진 안내 시스템을 설계 및 구현 하고자 한다.
