Abstract[English]
A system for guiding a patient during an ophthalmic examination includes a display screen and a patient guidance system (PGS). The PGS receives an enabling signal that identifies an examination device to be used during the examination. In response to receiving the enabling signal, the PGS may display a visible target via the display screen and/or play an audible sound via a speaker. The audio sound is a clear indication of the examination sequence performed using the examination device. The visible target includes patient instructions corresponding to an examination sequence performed using the examination device. The PGS automatically modifies a characteristic of the visible target or audio signal when the patient does not comply with the patient instructions during the examination sequence.[French]
L'invention concerne un système de guidage d'un patient pendant un examen ophtalmique qui comprend un écran d'affichage et un système de guidage de patient (PGS). Le PGS reçoit un signal d'activation qui identifie un dispositif d'examen à utiliser pendant l'examen. En réponse à la réception du signal d'activation, le PGS peut afficher une cible visible par l'intermédiaire de l'écran d'affichage et/ou lire un son audible au moyen d'un haut-parleur. Le son audio est une indication claire de la séquence d'examen effectuée à l'aide du dispositif d'examen. La cible visible comprend des instructions de patient correspondant à une séquence d'examen effectuée à l'aide du dispositif d'examen. Le PGS modifie automatiquement une caractéristique du signal cible ou audio visible lorsque le patient ne se conforme pas aux instructions de patient pendant la séquence d'examen.
