预防和管理医疗相关感染和疫情的技术平台
Technological Platform for the Prevention and Management of Healthcare Associated Infections and Outbreaks
摘要：
医院获得性感染是患者在住院期间发生的感染，在入院时不存在。它们是世界各地医疗保健中最常见的不良事件之一，导致死亡率和发病率增加，住院时间延长，给医院和患者带来相当大的经济负担。已经制定了预防性准则和条例，但遵守这些准则和条例的情况往往很差，还有很大的改进余地。本文介绍了一个可扩展的，可配置的网络物理系统的原型，在欧盟的资助下开发的，这将有助于预防医院感染和爆发。我们的解决方案将用于监测临床流程的无线传感器网络与围绕工作流引擎构建的可配置监控软件集成为关键组件，可检测与既定卫生实践的偏差，并在发现感染风险时提供实时信息和警报。该平台从硬件和软件的角度进行了描述，重点是无线网络的元素，以及最重要的软件组件。此外，两个不同的复杂性，这是包括在系统原型的临床工作流程进行了详细说明。预计最终完成的系统将有助于创建和自动监测与90%以上医院感染相关的临床工作流程。
英文摘要：
Hospital acquired infections are infections that occur in patients during hospitalization, which were not present at the time of admission. They are among the most common adverse events in healthcare around the world, leading to increased mortality and morbidity rates, prolonged hospitalization periods and considerable financial burden on both hospitals and patients. Preventive guidelines and regulations have been devised, however compliance to these is frequently poor and there is much room for improvement. This paper presents the prototype of an extensible, configurable cyber-physical system, developed under European Union funding, that will assist in the prevention of hospital infections and outbreaks. Integrating a wireless sensor network for the surveillance of clinical processes with configurable monitoring software built around a workflow engine as key component, our solution detects deviations from established hygiene practices and provides real-time information and alerts whenever an infection risk is discovered. The platform is described from both hardware and software perspective, with emphasis on the wireless network's elements as well as the most important software components. Furthermore, two clinical workflows of different complexity, which are included in the system prototype are detailed. The finalized system is expected to facilitate the creation and automated monitoring of clinical workflows that are associated with over 90% of hospital infections.
