Abstract

OBJECTIVE: Trauma resuscitation is the initial evaluation and management of injured patients in the emergency department. This time-critical process requires the simultaneous pursuit of multiple resuscitation goals. Recognizing whether the required goal is being pursued can reduce errors in goal-related task performance and improve patient outcomes. The intention to pursue a goal can often be inferred from ongoing and completed treatment activities, but monitoring goal pursuit is cognitively demanding and prone to errors. We introduced an interpretable deep learning-based approach to aid decision making by automatically recognizing goal pursuit during trauma resuscitation.
