Development trend of medical environment matching

One, electronic and information-based

In the medical institutions of western developed countries, such as the United States, Germany and other western developed countries, the rapid development of electronic technology and information technology in medical furniture has become another important trend of supporting development of medical environment. All kinds of medical furniture that are compatible with the electronic and information technology will improve the fine management level of the work area in hospitals, and further reduce the work intensity of medical staff.

For example, an important clinical medical furniture - mobile nursing workstation integrates one computer system, LCD liquid crystal display technology and high performance battery systems, to ensure the completion of all the nursing staff in nursing function at the same time in the bedside, and can make the hospital information system to become a ward / extended bedside and may extend. The responsibility of nursing staff in the bedside of the patient can access patient information, medical information, inspection and test results, imaging data and nursing assessment, nursing diagnosis and treatment, doctors issued orders, complete nursing operation in a timely manner, and confirm the use of gun sweep code execution, meet the closed-loop management orders thus, mobile medical care in the true sense.

Two. Automation

The development of industrial technology is always changing with each passing day, and the medical environment is also the same. In recent two or three years, an automated tree cabinet system which can integrate with HIS system and manage, distribute and trace items has been applied in advanced medical institutions in Europe and America. This system has the function of automatic storage cabinet in addition to traditional medicine, also has the optimization of inventory management, reduce inventory, avoid the shortage of the management software functions, at the same time the cabinet system and is compatible with electronic orders, automatic control technology and barcode technology to ensure the accuracy of drug distribution and drug distribution and simplify the working process, the staff will be more focus on clinical treatment and nursing work. The emergence of automatic cabinet system is bound to provide more enlightenment and thinking for the intelligent and electronic information development of medical furniture.

Three. Green environmental protection

Green is the soft decoration and medical furniture refers to the overall medical environment harmless to humans and the environment in the use of the process, in the process of production and recycling should also meet the requirements of environmental protection, such as the material of natural tendency, itself does not contain harmful substances, do not release harmful gases, easy recovery and reuse. At the beginning of the design of the medical environment, the recovery and reuse of the medical environment should be taken into account. The following codes are widely accepted by foreign designers for reference.

(1) reduction. Reduce the size and material of products: reduce the product manufacture and use of energy consumption, avoid unnecessary function.

(2) re use. A product that is designed to be easy to repair, can be reused again or reused, and can be partially replaced.

(3) recycling and reuse. In order to reduce the cost of recovery, try to avoid the mixed use of different raw materials, so as to help the future classification. Since there is no special standard for green furniture in China, consumers should choose furniture from their own health point of view, besides referring to the above characteristics of environmental furniture.

Four, combining with space environment

The design of medical environment matching should be combined with the overall design of medical space environment. One of the new tendencies of modern hospital design is to emphasize the design of "patient centered", apply new design techniques, create attractive public spaces, beautify the diagnosis and treatment rooms and wards. As the most important part of the hospital space, the medical environment matching needs to focus on the suitability of the medical environment supporting functions and the medical space environment. Its location and form in the space also affect the users' psychology. The open and oppressive feeling of indoor space can be produced by placing the furniture in different positions. Furniture is the most important part of dividing the functional area and space in space to form visual aesthetic feeling. Medical public space provides a space for the layout and design of furniture. Furniture design is based on space and based on the psychological change of people for the whole environment, so as to arrange the design of interior space reasonably.

The medical environment design method for supporting Chinese furniture, should be from the overall (macro), local (micro) of point of view, on the user's physiological and psychological needs of the medical environment and supporting the medical environment of special effects, to meet user needs in all aspects, so as to adapt to the modern medical management and service system to realize the true meaning of "people-oriented" humanized design objectives.

In the future, we should carry out the medical environment matching research in the overall relationship between man and environment. Starting from the dialectical relationship between "environment, furniture and one person", we should emphasize the relationship between environment and furniture, such as environmental awareness, psychological needs and spatial behavior of furniture users.
