Abstract

In large hospitals, nurses' intervention within certain timeframes can be a decisive factor in patients' recovery and might lead to serious and irreversible repercussions if not adequate. In this paper, a smart digital medical bed called MedBed is devised to solve the most challenging and relevant problems in an efficient manner from time, space and economical perspectives. The ultimate objective is to provide patients a certain independency thus, allowing them to take some vital actions when nurses are late or unavailable. The various features that the system offers are relevant and range from regular/plain to highly decisive in terms of impact on the patient's vital status. The bed recognizes voice commands from the patient and is perceived to communicate as Internet of Think (IoT) via a customized and user-friendly smartphone application. A database is provided to keep track of various related activities such as medication and other crucial reminders, as well. Finally, the utmost feature of this model is that it can be implemented in medical and healthcare centers with minimal infrastructure requirements or modifications.

MedBed:智能医疗床

在大型医院，护士在一定时间范围内的干预可能是患者康复的决定性因素，如果干预不充分，可能导致严重和不可逆转的后果。本文设计了一种名为MedBed的智能数字医疗床，从时间、空间和经济的角度高效地解决最具挑战性和相关性的问题。最终目标是为患者提供一定的独立性，从而允许他们在护士迟到或不在时采取一些重要的行动。系统提供的各种功能是相关的，范围从常规/普通到高度决定性的影响患者的生命状态。这张床可以识别患者的语音命令，并通过定制的、用户友好的智能手机应用程序作为思维互联网(IoT)进行交流。提供了一个数据库来跟踪各种相关活动，如药物治疗和其他重要提醒。最后，该模型的最大特点是，它可以在医疗和保健中心实现，对基础设施的需求或修改最少。
