Effectiveness of an artificial intelligence-based training and monitoring system in prevention of nosocomial infections: A pilot study of hospital-based data.

Drug discoveries & therapeutics
This work describes a novel artificial intelligence-based training and monitoring system (AITMS) that was used to control and prevent nosocomial infections (NIs) by improving the skills of donning/removing personal protective equipment (PPE). The AIT...

Rapid Discrimination of ST175 Isolates Involved in a Nosocomial Outbreak Using MALDI-TOF Mass Spectrometry and FTIR Spectroscopy Coupled with Machine Learning.

Transboundary and emerging diseases
The goal of this study was to evaluate matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-iime of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR-S) as diagnostic alternatives to DNA-based methods for the detection ...

Clinically explainable machine learning models for early identification of patients at risk of hospital-acquired urinary tract infection.

The Journal of hospital infection
BACKGROUND: Machine learning (ML) models for early identification of patients at risk of hospital-acquired urinary tract infection (HA-UTI) may enable timely and targeted preventive and therapeutic strategies. However, clinicians are often challenged...

The use of smart environments and robots for infection prevention control: A systematic literature review.

American journal of infection control
BACKGROUND: Infection prevention and control (IPC) is essential to prevent nosocomial infections. This manuscript aims at investigating the current use and role of robots and smart environments on IPC systems in nosocomial settings METHODS: The syste...

Implementation of an Environmental Cleaning Protocol in Hospital Critical Areas Using a UV-C Disinfection Robot.

International journal of environmental research and public health
Improving the cleaning and disinfection of high-touch surfaces is one of the core components of reducing healthcare-associated infections. The effectiveness of an enhanced protocol applying UV-C irradiation for terminal room disinfection between two ...

Prediction of Lung Infection during Palliative Chemotherapy of Lung Cancer Based on Artificial Neural Network.

Computational and mathematical methods in medicine
Lung infection seriously affects the effect of chemotherapy in patients with lung cancer and increases pain. The study is aimed at establishing the prediction model of infection in patients with lung cancer during chemotherapy by an artificial neural...

Susceptible-Infected-Removed Mathematical Model under Deep Learning in Hospital Infection Control of Novel Coronavirus Pneumonia.

Journal of healthcare engineering
OBJECTIVE: This research aimed to explore the application of a mathematical model based on deep learning in hospital infection control of novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pneumonia.

Application of Deep Neural Network Factor Analysis Model in Operating Room Management Nursing Analysis of Postoperative Infection Nursing after Thoracic Surgery.

Computational and mathematical methods in medicine
Thoracic surgery is the main surgical method for the treatment of respiratory diseases and lung diseases, but infections caused by improper care are prone to occur during the operation, which can induce pulmonary edema and lung injury and affect the ...

The use of a UV-C disinfection robot in the routine cleaning process: a field study in an Academic hospital.

Antimicrobial resistance and infection control
BACKGROUND: Environmental surface decontamination is a crucial tool to prevent the spread of infections in hospitals. However, manual cleaning and disinfection may be insufficient to eliminate pathogens from contaminated surfaces. Ultraviolet-C (UV-C...

Prediction of risk of acquiring urinary tract infection during hospital stay based on machine-learning: A retrospective cohort study.

PloS one
BACKGROUND: Healthcare associated infections (HAI) are a major burden for the healthcare system and associated with prolonged hospital stay, increased morbidity, mortality and costs. Healthcare associated urinary tract infections (HA-UTI) accounts fo...
