Hospital Group Safety AR
Augmented reality is a computer interface that is used to combine virtual graphics with a user's camera view, allowing for an enriched informational environment. While its use has been limited until recently, the introduction of Apple and Android's new AR development platforms, named ARKit and ARCore respectively, will provide access to AR applications for anyone with a smartphone or tablet. ARKit and ARCore will make it possible to create augmented reality applications for all kinds of medical and healthcare activities, with enhanced access to real time information in a seamless and interactive format.
AugmentedReality.health is a leading developer in augmented reality applications, with extensive experience in VMS, or virtual medical simulations. In response to the availability of ARKit and ARCore platforms, AugmentedReality.health has developed a number of new AR concepts for the medical and health care industries. Hospital Group Safety AR is an AR app intended to address the serious concern of hospital safety, and AugmentedReality.health believes this application will provide immediate practical value for health care facilities participating in nationwide safety standard compliance.
Need
Hospital Safety is emerging as an important criterion for selecting a medical facility, and Hospital Group Safety AR is intended as a tool to facilitate group communication and compliance. Because of the complexity of medical facility operations and staff, it is important to find efficient ways to maintain group safety standards in and around the facility. Hospital safety currently varies significantly, and most hospital safety errors can be prevented with proper attention to detail. By using augmented reality, Hospital Group Safety AR will allow all participating staff to access the app and make a scan of a room, hallway, OR, or ICU for safety compliance and specific issues which may need immediate attention.
Benefit
Hospital Group Safety AR will foster a higher standard of safety for hospitals across the country with an easy to use application that provides valuable real time safety data at a glance. Hospital Group Safety AR has the potential to offer a method to standardize safety nationwide, and to allow hospitals to closely monitor and improve their safety performance.
Concept
Hospital Group Safety AR will be accessed through a smartphone or tablet. All participants in the safety program will be able to use their camera as the interface and make a scan of their immediate environment. Safety details about the space will be displayed as floating text, indicating all of the areas of concern. Independent institutions now provide a detailed grading methodology for determining the safety of hospitals throughout the country, and Hospital Group Safety AR will facilitate compliance with these grading procedures to ensure that any given hospital meets the highest possible standard. By working closely with these regulatory agencies, hospitals can keep track of Computerized Physician Order Entry (CPOE), ICU Physician Staffing (IPS), Leadership structures and systems, as well as Safety Culture Measurement, with opportunities for participants to make notes, provide feedback, and allow intervention when necessary. Hospital Group Safety AR can provide guidance for the nursing staff, identify common risks and mitigation procedures, and ultimately act as the shared interface for group safety compliance and enforcement.
