The Singapore Health Services (SingHealth) and Royal Philips are working on optimizing smart intensive care unit (ICU) capacity across the city-state's public cluster to prevent frequent false alarms that can overshadow real emergencies and put patient safety at risk.
Early warning scores, custom algorithms, and clear data displays will be implemented to reduce staff workload.
Royal Philips would also help SingHealth, Singapore's biggest public healthcare cluster, develop artificial intelligence (AI)-powered models and algorithms to monitor developments in patients' conditions and optimise alarm management.
The project rollout will be phased in consultation with key stakeholders.
As with all projects, successful implementation hinges on effective change management, seamless integration, and stakeholder engagement.
