Touchless Medical Monitoring

This presentation will discuss the use of artificial intelligence and machine vision to create a new platform for medical monitoring. Many patients in the hospital are not monitored continuously and the medical monitors that we have now (ECG, pulse oximetry, blood pressure cuffs) require the patient to we wired or attached to a monitor. Dr. Wallace is developing a remote, non-contact patient monitor that relies on machine vision to continuously monitor patients. The monitor is designed to reduce morbidity and mortality by identifying patient deterioration prior to cardiac or respiratory arrest.

Art Wallace, M.D, Ph.D is a cardiac anesthesiologist, professor and vice-chairman of anesthesiology and perioperative care at the University of California San Francisco, and Chief of Anesthesia at the San Francisco VA Medical Center. Dr Wallace has developed medications, surgical procedures, medical devices, and medical informatics software.
