Abstract

OBJECTIVE: With the development of day surgery, the characteristics of "short, frequent and fast" ophthalmic surgery are becoming more prominent. However, nurses are not efficient in verifying patients' surgical information, and problems such as patient privacy leakage are becoming more prominent. To improve the situation, we developed a new augmented reality (AR)-based tool for visual recognition and artificial intelligent (AI) interpretation of the pattern and location of patient surgical skin markings for the verification of the correct surgical site and procedure. The tool can also display a variety of other verbally requested patient information. The purpose of this proposal is to evaluate its feasibility of use by surgical nurses in a real clinical setting.
