With the progress of technology in modern hospitals, an intelligent perioperative situation recognition will gain more relevance due to its potential to substantially improve surgical workflows by providing situation knowledge in real-time. Such knowledge can be extracted from image data by machine learning techniques but poses a privacy threat to the staff’s and patients’ personal data. De-identification is a possible solution for removing visual sensitive information. In this work, we developed a YOLO v3 based prototype to detect sensitive areas in the image in real-time. These are then deidentified using common image obfuscation techniques. Our approach shows that it is principle suitable for de-identifying sensitive data in OR images and contributes to a privacyrespectful way of processing in the context of situation recognition in the OR.
Ultra wideband real-time locating system for tracking people and devices in the operating room
(2022)
Position tracking within the OR could be one possible input for intraoperative situation recognition. Our approach demonstrates a Real-time Locating System (RTLS) using the Ultra Wideband (UWB) technology to determine the position of people or objects. The UWB RTLS was integrated into the research OR at Reutlingen University and the system’s settings were optimized regarding the four factors accuracy, susceptibility to interference, range, and latency. Therefore, different parameters were adapted and the effects on the factors were compared. Goodtracking quality could be achieved under optimal settings. These results indicate that a UWB RTLS is well suited to determine the position of people and devices in our setting. The feasibility of the system needsto be evaluated under real OR conditions.
Introduction: Even if there is a standard procedure of CI surgery, especially in pediatric surgery surgical steps often differ individually due to anatomical variations, malformations or unforseen events. This is why every surgical report should be created individually, which takes time and relies on the correct memory of the surgeon. A standardized recording of intraoperative data and subsequent storage as well as text processing would therefore be desirable and provides the basis for subsequent data processing, e.g. in the context of research or quality assurance.
Method: In cooperation with Reutlingen University, we conducted a workflow analysis of the prototype of a semi-automatic checklist tool. Based on automatically generated checklists generated from BPMN models a prototype user interface was developed for an android tablet. Functions such as uploading photos and files, manual user entries, the interception of foreseeable deviations from the normal course of operations and the automatic creation of OP documentation could be implemented. The system was tested in a remote usability test on a petrous bone model.
Result: The user interface allows a simple intuitive handling, which can be well implemented in the intraoperative setting. Clinical data as well as surgical steps could be individually recorded and saved via DICOM. An automatic surgery report could be created and saved.
Summary: The use of a dynamic checklist tool facilitates the capture, storage and processing of surgical data. Further applications in clinical practice are pending.
