Internet of Things (IoT) technology plays an important role in smart healthcare. This paper discusses IoT solution for emergency medical devices in hospitals. Based on the cloud-edge-device architecture, different medical devices were connected; Streaming data were parsed, distributed, and computed at the edge nodes; Data were stored, analyzed and visualized in the cloud nodes. The IoT system has been working steadily for nearly 20 months since it run in the emergency department in January 2021. Through preliminary analysis with collected data, IoT performance testing and development of early warning model, the feasibility and reliability of the in-hospital emergency medical devices IoT was verified, which can collect data for a long time on a large scale and support the development and deployment of machine learning models. The paper ends with an outlook on medical device data exchange and wireless transmission in the IoT of emergency medical devices, the connection of emergency equipment inside and outside the hospital, and the next step of analyzing IoT data to develop emergency intelligent IoT applications.
Interfacility transport of critically ill children is an important part of pre-hospital emergency care. The development of 5th generation mobile networks has brought revolutionary changes to emergency medicine, which can realize real-time sharing of information between hospitals and transfer ambulance units. In order to give full play to the advantages of superior medical institutions in diagnosis and treatment technology, equipment resources, and realize the safe and fast transfer of critically ill children, the technical specifications for the construction of interfacility transport of critically ill children’s ambulances with 5th generation mobile networks are specially formulated to standardize the team building, equipment and materials, transport process and quality control requirements for critically ill children’s ambulance transport, so as to reduce the fatality rate of critically ill children and improve the prognosis.
【摘要】 目的 分析地市級急救中心院前急救中損傷患者臨床特點，科學地指導院前急救診斷處置及急診外科資源配置。 方法 回顧性分析2009年1-12月份自貢市急救中心出診的全部有效病例中損傷患者出診資料，分析其疾病譜、季節、月份、時刻分布特點。 結果 全年院前急救損傷患者共1 922例，排名前5位的分別為:頭部損傷，涉及身體多個部位的損傷，膝和小腿損傷，腹部、背、腰椎和骨盆損傷，髖和大腿損傷，所有分類構成比男性均多于女性；損傷季節分布以冬季較多（Plt;0.05）；分布以1、11、12月份為多；時刻分布以凌晨0:00~6:00為出診最少時段。 結論 國際疾病分類（ICD-10）為規范院前急救疾病譜提供參考，根據損傷類疾病譜可確定急診外科工作及發展重心，依據季節、月份及時刻分布特點能指導急救資源合理配置。【Abstract】 Objective To provide scientific guidance of assistances for patients sustaining injuries and of effective resource allocation of emergency surgery by analyzing the pre-hospital features of injuries in urgent rescue centers at the local or city level. Methods All cases of injuries in pre-hospital emergency care during the year of 2009 were studied. The spectrum of diseases, and the seasons, the months, and the time points of the diseases were analyzed. Results There were totally 1 922 patients of pre-hospital emergency care in the whole year. Based on the International Classification of Diseases 10th Revision (ICD-10), top five classifications were injuries to the head, injuries involving multiple body regions, injuries to the knee and lower leg, injuries to the abdomen, lower back, lumbar spine and pelvis, and injuries to the hip and thigh. For all kinds of injuries, the number of male patients was more than that of the female. The cases in winter were more than those in other seasons (Plt;0.05). The cases in January, November and December were more than those in other months. The cases between 0:00 am and 6:00 am were less than those at other time points. Conclusion ICD-10 could provide reference for standardizing the spectrum of diseases in pre-hospital care. The focus of emergency surgery may be guided by the spectrum of injuries. The features of the season, the month, and time point of diseases can offer practical help for resource allocation in pre-hospital care.
