An online forum was held to introduce the latest technology utilizing AI = artificial intelligence in the intensive care unit, which is the key to the treatment of patients who have become severely ill with the new coronavirus.
This forum was held online by the committee of the Japanese Society of Intensive Care Medicine on the 13th, and about 150 people including medical personnel involved in the treatment of the new coronavirus participated.
Among them, the group of Yokohama City University Hospital reported on the development status of a system that predicts patient abnormalities by analyzing the image of a camera mounted on the bed with AI.
According to the group, there is a concern that a bed for the severely ill will be added to a remote location in response to the new coronavirus, making it difficult for staff to see, so the system under development is a bed for the severely ill with the new coronavirus. However, we are in the process of verifying whether it can be used.
In addition, the group at Showa University Hospital introduced a technique for predicting the blood pressure of a patient 3 hours later by letting AI learn past test data for the value of blood pressure, which is one of the indicators of aggravation.
In addition, at the forum, it is reported that the Japanese Society of Intensive Care Medicine will establish a new NPO to promote research using AI and the development of technology to remotely manage medical care in the intensive care unit. it was done.
