Efficiency and patient safety are top priorities in any surgical operation. One effective way to achieve these objectives is automating many of the logistical and routine tasks that occur in the operating room. Inspired by smart assistant technology already commonplace in the consumer sector, we engineered the Smart Hospital Assistant (SHA), a smart, voice-controlled virtual assistant that handles natural speech recognition while executing a plurality of functions to aid surgery. Simulated surgeries showed that the SHA reduced operating time, optimized surgical staff resources, and reduced the number of major touch points that can lead to surgical site infections. The SHA not only shows its potential in the operating room, but also in other healthcare environments that may benefit from having virtual smart assistant technology. |
