Enhancing Oxygen Therapy in Hospitalized Geriatric Patients Through Robotic Monitoring
Challenge:
Enhancing Oxygen Therapy in Hospitalized Geriatric Patients Through Robotic Monitoring
Entity:
UCBM – Università Campus Bio-Medico di Roma
Background Information:
At UCBM, geriatric patients undergoing oxygen therapy, particularly those with cognitive impairments like dementia or delirium, often face challenges in adhering to their prescribed treatment, which can diminish the therapy’s effectiveness and increase side effects. Effective monitoring and administration of oxygen therapy are critical to ensure safety and efficacy.
Challenge Description:
UCBM is looking to employ a robotic assistive platform equipped with AI and robotic vision to monitor oxygen therapy adherence. This technology will verify the correct use of masks, cannulas, and check oxygen flow and saturation, ensuring that all prescribed standards are met and providing necessary interventions when deviations occur.
What They Are Looking For:
The objective is to maximize compliance with oxygen therapy among geriatric patients, enhancing the therapy’s benefits and reducing potential risks associated with improper oxygen use.
