Bedside monitors in hospital intensive care units (ICUs) are known to produce excessive false alarms that could desensitize caregivers, resulting in delayed or even missed clinical interventions to life-threatening events. Our previous studies propos...

Studies reveal that the false alarm rate (FAR) demonstrated by intensive care unit (ICU) vital signs monitors ranges from 0.72 to 0.99. We applied machine learning (ML) to ICU multi-sensor information to imitate a medical specialist in diagnosing pat...
BACKGROUND: Informed estimates claim that 80% to 99% of alarms set off in hospital units are false or clinically insignificant, representing a cacophony of sounds that do not present a real danger to patients. These false alarms can lead to an alert ...

BACKGROUND: Colonoscopy with computer-aided detection (CADe) has been shown in non-blinded trials to improve detection of colon polyps and adenomas by providing visual alarms during the procedure. We aimed to assess the effectiveness of a CADe system...
This study proposes a deep learning model that effectively suppresses the false alarms in the intensive care units (ICUs) without ignoring the true alarms using single- and multi- modal biosignals. Most of the current work in the literature are eithe...

Nocturnal enuresis is a bothersome condition that affects many children and their caregivers. Post-voiding systems is of little value in training a child into a correct voiding routing while existing pre-voiding systems suffer from several practical ...
BACKGROUND: Too many unnecessary alarms in the intensive care unit are one of the main reasons for alarm fatigue: Medical staff is overburdened and fails to respond appropriately. This endangers both patients and staff. Currently, there are no algori...
