Area of Science:

  • Anesthesiology
  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Medical Informatics

Background:

  • Traditional anesthesia records rely on manual data entry, which can be prone to errors and inaccuracies.
  • Accurate and timely recording of physiological data and events is crucial for patient safety during anesthesia.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To design, build, and test an electronic clipboard system for semi-automatic anesthesia record generation.
  • To evaluate the system's ability to improve the accuracy of physiological data monitoring and event timing.

Main Methods:

  • Development of an electronic clipboard device capable of semi-automatic data recording.
  • Implementation of automated recording of physiological data at intervals up to once per minute.
  • Inclusion of two keys for manual entry of drug and event data with timestamps.

Main Results:

  • The electronic clipboard system successfully produces semi-automatic anesthesia records.
  • Physiological data, including heart rate and blood pressure, are accurately monitored.
  • The timing of drug and event entries is significantly improved compared to handwritten records.

Conclusions:

  • The developed electronic clipboard offers a more accurate and efficient method for anesthesia record-keeping.
  • This technology enhances patient safety by improving the reliability of monitored data and event logs.
