Tan S, Mills G. Designing Chinese hospital emergency departments to leverage artificial intelligence-a systematic literature review on the challenges and opportunities. FRONTIERS IN MEDICAL TECHNOLOGY 2024; 6:1307625. [PMID: 38577009 PMCID: PMC10991761 DOI: 10.3389/fmedt.2024.1307625] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/04/2023] [Accepted: 03/08/2024] [Indexed: 04/06/2024] Open
Abstract
Artificial intelligence (AI) has witnessed rapid advances in the healthcare domain in recent years, especially in the emergency field, where AI is likely to radically reshape medical service delivery. Although AI has substantial potential to enhance diagnostic accuracy and operational efficiency in hospitals, research on its applications in Emergency Department building design remains relatively scarce. Therefore, this study aims to investigate Emergency Department facility design by identifying the challenges and opportunities of using AI. Two systematic literature reviews are combined, one in AI and the other in sensors, to explore their potential application to support decision-making, resource optimisation and patient monitoring. These reviews have then informed a discussion on integrating AI sensors in contemporary Emergency Department designs for use in China to support the evidence base on resuscitation units, emergency operating rooms and Emergency Department Intensive Care Unit (ED-ICU) design. We hope to inform the strategic implementation of AI sensors and how they might transform Emergency Department design to support medical staff and enhance the patient experience.

Development of a Portable Infrared-Type Noncontact Blood Pressure Measuring Device and Evaluation of Blood Pressure Elevation during Driving. APPLIED SCIENCES-BASEL 2022.

Abstract
Hypertension has been established as a major risk factor for cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Therefore, prevention of hypertension is an urgent matter to maintain people’s health and avoid death, and out-of-office blood pressure measurement is said to be an integral part of the diagnosis and management of hypertension. Hypertension not only causes loss of productivity and economic loss but is also a major cause of road accidents. Therefore, it is important to develop an in-vehicle noncontact blood pressure measurement system for drivers. In addition to measurement accuracy, proper detection timing is also important, and there must be no difference between noncontact and contact detection times. In this study, we introduce an infrared cuffless and portable noncontact blood pressure monitoring system, its measurement principle, and performance evaluation. A total of 13 male adults participated in the experiment to evaluate the effect of time lag between the use of the infrared blood pressure monitoring system and the contact blood pressure monitoring system using a driving simulator. The changepoint method was applied to detect the first change point in the blood pressure time series data caused by the unexpected first appearance of the vehicle. The results showed that the detection time of the developed system was about 2.5 s shorter than that of the contact-type continuous blood pressure measurement system, with no significant difference.

INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND PUBLIC HEALTH 2021; 18:ijerph18179229. [PMID: 34501829 PMCID: PMC8430549 DOI: 10.3390/ijerph18179229] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/30/2021] [Revised: 08/26/2021] [Accepted: 08/27/2021] [Indexed: 12/20/2022]
Abstract
We evaluated new features from biosignals comprising diverse physiological response information to predict the outcome of weaning from mechanical ventilation (MV). We enrolled 89 patients who were candidates for weaning from MV in the intensive care unit and collected continuous biosignal data: electrocardiogram (ECG), respiratory impedance, photoplethysmogram (PPG), arterial blood pressure, and ventilator parameters during a spontaneous breathing trial (SBT). We compared the collected biosignal data's variability between patients who successfully discontinued MV (n = 67) and patients who did not (n = 22). To evaluate the usefulness of the identified factors for predicting weaning success, we developed a machine learning model and evaluated its performance by bootstrapping. The following markers were different between the weaning success and failure groups: the ratio of standard deviations between the short-term and long-term heart rate variability in a Poincaré plot, sample entropy of ECG and PPG, α values of ECG, and respiratory impedance in the detrended fluctuation analysis. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of the model was 0.81 (95% confidence interval: 0.70-0.92). This combination of the biosignal data-based markers obtained during SBTs provides a promising tool to assist clinicians in determining the optimal extubation time.
