SINGAPORE - As part of efforts to ease the hospital bed crunch situation, the National University Hospital System has developed an artificial intelligence platform that can predict the availability of beds as much as two weeks in advance.
A patient who is estimated to stay in the hospital for more than two weeks will be flagged to the medical team, who can then, for instance, plan to transfer the patient earlier to a community hospital for rehabilitation. The system alerts staff to increased wait times in emergency departments, enabling additional manpower to be quickly deployed if needed.
The AI allows clinical practitioners to make faster, more accurate diagnoses and precise treatments, he said.
