Abstract

A measurement information display method includes: generating measurement information of a sample according to progress of measurement of the sample by a measurement unit for measuring the sample, and accumulating the measurement information in a storage part, the measurement information including state information indicating a state of the measurement by the measurement unit; accepting extracting information including an extracting condition regarding the state of measurement of the sample used in extracting the accumulated measurement information, and storing the extracting information in a memory; accepting a selection of the extracting information stored in the memory; extracting the measurement information from the accumulated measurement information according to the selected extracting information; and displaying the extracted measurement information.

Claims

1. A clinical sample measurement device comprising:

a measurement unit configured for measuring a clinical sample; and

a computer system connected to the measurement unit, comprising;

a display section; and

a storage part under control of a processor, the storage part storing;

a measurement non-completed sample extracting condition indicating that measurement information of clinical samples, whose measurements have not been completed, is extracted, wherein the measurement information comprises state information indicating whether measurement of the clinical samples has been completed; and

instructions enabling the processor to carry out operations, comprising;

accepting a customize condition indicating that measurement information, corresponding to a condition set by a user of the clinical sample measurement device, is extracted;

storing the accepted customize condition;

storing the measurement information of clinical samples;

updating the measurement information when measurements have been completed, such that the state information indicates measurements have been completed;

accepting a selection of the measurement non-completed sample extracting condition or the customize condition;

extracting measurement information indicating measurements have not been completed from the storage part when the measurement non-completed sample extracting condition has been selected; and

displaying the extracted measurement information on the display part.

2. The clinical sample measurement device according to claim 1, wherein the operations further comprise:

displaying a first button for selecting the measurement non-completed sample extracting condition and a second button for selecting the customize condition;

wherein selection of the measurement non-completed sample extracting condition and the customize condition is accepted via the buttons.

3. The clinical sample measurement device according to claim 1, wherein the operations further comprise:

displaying a customize condition setting screen for inputting the customize condition;

wherein the customize condition is accepted via the customize condition setting screen.

4. The clinical sample measurement device according to claim 1, wherein the customize condition comprises a combination of extracting conditions.

5. The clinical sample measurement device according to claim 1, wherein the measurement information comprises a date of measurement, and wherein the storage part further stores an extracting condition to extract the measurement information based on the date of measurement.

6. The clinical sample measurement device according to claim 1, wherein the measurement information comprises validation information indicating whether the clinical samples have been validated, and wherein the storage part further stores an extracting condition to extract the measurement information based on whether the clinical samples have been validated.

7. A measurement information of clinical samples display method comprising:

accepting a customize condition indicating that measurement information, corresponding to a condition set by a user of the clinical sample measurement device, is extracted;

storing the accepted customize condition;

storing measurement information of clinical samples, the measurement information comprising state information indicating whether measurement of the clinical samples has been completed;

updating the measurement information when measurements have been completed, such that the state information indicates measurements have been completed;

accepting a selection of a measurement non-completed sample extracting condition or the customize condition, the measurement non-completed sample extracting condition indicating that measurement information of clinical samples, whose measurements have not been completed, is extracted;

extracting measurement information indicating measurements have not been completed when the measurement non-completed sample extracting condition has been selected; and

displaying the extracted measurement information.

8. The measurement information of clinical samples display method according to claim 7, further comprising:

displaying a first button for selecting the measurement non-completed sample extracting condition and a second button for selecting the customize condition;

wherein the selection of the measurement non-completed sample extracting condition and the customize condition is accepted via the buttons.

9. The measurement information of clinical samples display method according to claim 7, further comprising:

displaying a customize condition setting screen for inputting the customize condition;

wherein the customize condition is accepted via the customize condition setting screen.

10. The measurement information of clinical samples display method according to claim 7, wherein the customize condition comprises a combination of extracting conditions.

11. A computer system configured to display measurement information of clinical samples, comprising:

a display section;

a storage part under control of a processor, the storage part storing;

a measurement non-completed sample extracting condition indicating that measurement information of clinical samples, whose measurements have not been completed, is extracted, wherein the measurement information comprises state information indicating whether measurement of the clinical samples has been completed; and

instructions enabling the processor to carry out operations, comprising;

accepting a customize condition Indicating that measurement information, corresponding to a condition set by a user of the clinical sample measurement device, is extracted;

storing the accepted customize condition;

storing the measurement information of clinical samples;

updating, when measurements have been completed, the measurement information such that the state information indicates measurements have been completed;

accepting a selection of the measurement non-completed sample extracting condition or the customize condition;

extracting measurement information indicating measurements have not been completed from the storage part when the measurement non-completed sample extracting condition has been selected; and

displaying the extracted measurement information on the display part.

12. The computer system according to claim 11, wherein:

the operations further comprise displaying a first button for selecting the measurement non-completed sample extracting condition and a second button for selecting the customize condition; and
