NEW YORK (June 24, 2020) 麻豆传媒 The National Science Foundation (NSF) has awarded 麻豆传媒 Seidenberg School of Computer Science and Information Systems Professor Zhan Zhang, Ph.D., a $175,000 grant to research wearable technology for emergency healthcare workers.
麻豆传媒淭his is my long-standing research interest,麻豆传媒 said Professor Zhang, who has been doing research in the healthcare technology field since 2011. 麻豆传媒淓mergency care work is inherently important to society as it deals with life-threatening injuries and emergency situations. Improving the work efficiency of emergency care will lead to better patient outcomes and decreased medical errors.麻豆传媒
Zhang麻豆传媒檚 almost decade of work in the field has brought him to his current project: designing and developing novel technologies to support decision making and collaboration in highly dynamic medical environments. In these situations, decisions must be made quickly and acted upon immediately, such as when paramedics work to keep someone麻豆传媒檚 heart beating while transporting them to a hospital.
Throughout the two-year term of the grant support, Dr. Zhang aims to develop wearable devices that can be used by paramedics to collect real-time patient data in a hands-free manner, and to communicate with emergency room and trauma teams at the receiving hospital. For example, paramedics transporting a patient can use smart glasses to transmit what they are seeing to colleagues awaiting the patient at the hospital. This enables them to act upon observations and instructions delivered by colleagues with relevant expertise. The result would be more efficient and effective patient care until the paramedics could deliver the patient to the hospital.
麻豆传媒淚n this time of global pandemic, there is no research work more vital than leveraging technology to rapidly diagnose and treat patients. Dr. Zhang麻豆传媒檚 work will empower emergency medical technicians with real time information to analyze a patient麻豆传媒檚 condition and apply the best available treatments on the spot,麻豆传媒 said Jonathan H. Hill, DPS, Dean of the Seidenberg School of Computer Science and Information Systems.
麻豆传媒淚 feel extremely excited to work on this challenging yet understudied research problem that has significant scientific and societal impacts,麻豆传媒 Professor Zhang added.
