Abstract:
Objective:To explore a new platform for pre-hospital and in-hospital emergency medical services based on a new generation of 5G communication technology, providing a basis for further improving the level of emergency medical services.
Methods:This study was conducted at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine from October 2017 to April 2019. Based on the latest requirements of emergency medical services at home and abroad, the cross-enterprise and multi-disciplinary technical forces were organized to build platform. Firstly, to determine the process of pre-hospital and in-hospital emergency medical services, various modules and technical routes were constructed under 5G conditions and individual technologies were tested one by one. Then they were gradually integrated into two platforms of ambulance and hospital emergency. Finally, the simulation test is carried out under the support of the whole 5G network.
Results:The pre-hospital and in-hospital emergency medical service platform based on 5G technology comprises of 5G ambulance, 5G panoramic VR real-time display system, 5G remote ultrasonic examination system, medical drone system, and 5G emergency command platform. 5G ambulance contains medical equipments such as multi-function monitor, ventilator, defibrillation monitor, portable B-ultrasound, high-definition remote video interactive system based on 5G network, VR immersive real-time panoramic experience system, and GPS positioning system. 5G panoramic VR real-time display system includes VR panoramic camera and VR glasses. The wearer with VR glasses can view the real-time situation on the ambulance, which makes a preliminary judgment on the patient's condition and provides rescue guidance. 5G remote ultrasonic examination system integrates robot technology, real-time remote control technology, and ultrasonic imaging technology. The specialist can control the movement of the ultrasonic probe set on the 5G ambulance by manipulating the mechanical arm. The patient's image and color super-picture can also be simultaneously returned to the specialist. The medical drone system enables the medical resources to be allocated in the shortest possible time through the 5G networked drones, so as to eliminate the delay caused by traffic congestion. 5G emergency command platform can integrate, transmit, and display data from multiple sources and forms through web pages in assistance of AI and internet of things.
Conclusions:The new platform for pre-hospital and in-hospital emergency medical services based on 5G technology can realize more fluent information exchange in pre-hospital and in-hospital, and realize the functions that are difficult to achieve under the previous network conditions.
