  2. 2. Towards Smart Maintenance : Machine-Learning Based Prediction of Retroreflectivity and Color of Road Traffic Signs

    Författare :Roxan Saleh; Hasan Fleyeh; Moudud Alam; Arend Hintze; Darko Babic; Högskolan Dalarna; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Road traffic signs; Retroreflectivity; Chromaticity; Maintenance; Predictive models; classification; Survival analysis; Kaplan Estimator; Machine Learning;

    Sammanfattning : Proper maintenance of road traffic signs is vital for safety, as their low visibility can cause accidents and fatalities. Many countries, including Sweden, lack a systematic approach for replacing signs due to the risky, costly, and complex methods needed to measure their color and retroreflectivity. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Health Care Professionals’ Views of Smart Glasses for Vital Signs Monitoring in Complex Care Environments

    Författare :Charlotte Romare; Lisa Skär; Sofia Österberg; Blekinge Tekniska Högskola; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Anesthesia Department; Hospital; Human Factors Engineering; Intensive Care Units; Monitoring; Physiologic; Nursing; Smart Glasses; Patient Safety.; Tillämpad hälsoteknik; Applied Health Technology;

    Sammanfattning : Monitoring patient vital signs is one of many important tasks for health care professionals in intensive care units and anaesthesia departments. Patient status can deteriorate in seconds, hence close surveillance is requisite for safe care. However, monitoring vital signs can be challenging in some situations. LÄS MER

  4. 4. In-hospital patient safety - prevention of deterioration and unexpected death by systematic and interprofessional use of early warning scoring

    Författare :Gitte Bunkenborg; Anestesiologi och intensivvård; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Patient safety; Adverse event; Vital parameters; Deterioration; Early warning score; Mortality rate; Unexpected death; Clinical intervention; Adherence; Implementation; association;

    Sammanfattning : Abstract In-hospital patient safety is at times hampered, leaving general ward patients at considerable risk of gradual, even life-threatening, deterioration. In many European clinical settings, inappropriate nursing practice of bedside monitoring and management has recently been addressed as impending to in-hospital patient safety. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Counting deaths, accounting for lives : Novel applications of standardised verbal autopsy methods for augmented health systems

    Författare :Laith Hussain-Alkhateeb; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Verbal autopsy; cause of death; vital registration; health system; surveillance; World Health Organization;

    Sammanfattning : Half of the world’s deaths and their causes are never recorded by virtue of the under-resourced civil registration and vital statistics (CRVS) systems which limits capacity of health systems to respond to population needs. Verbal autopsy (VA) has emerged as a pragmatic approach for determining causes of death using standard interviews including signs, symptoms and circumstances of death, conducted with the bereaved family.
