AUTONOMOUS MEDICAL DOCUMENTATION

PASSIVE DATA COLLECTION VIA SENSOR SUITES

The Problem

Lack of Medical Documentation

Military prehospital care often occurs in austere, chaotic environments.

Medics and combat lifesavers in the battlespace need to balance:

Casualty severity

A large patient load

Limited supplies

During times of intense activity, they must prioritize their patients over documenting care delivery to save the lives of their fellow warfighters. This makes medical documentation challenging, if not impossible.

In other words, capturing medical data becomes secondary to saving lives; however there is still a need for timely, accurate, automated medical documentation.

IN THE MOMENT, THIS DATA:

Generates valuable information to higher echelons of care, medical resupply/logistics systems, and command situational awareness (SA)

IN THE FUTURE, THIS DATA:

Allows AI and ML to enhance delivery care in the tactical environment in the future based on lessons learned from current case requirements

THE SOLUTION

TATRC's Autonomous Documentation Project

A component of the Autonomous Casualty Care (AC2) mission

Moberg Analytics was awarded a contract with the DOD Telemedicine and Advanced Technology Research Center (TATRC) to passively collect casualty care data using video, audio, and motion capture sensors in the prehospital environment. This data will be used in ML algorithms to automatically create a digital DD 1380 form, or tactical combat casualty care (TCCC) card.

It is vital that the processes in collecting this data do not distract the medic/caregiver’s capability and capacity to deliver care.

While this first solution aims to address documentation, primarily in the pre-hospital environment, the same data can be used in developing algorithms for:

Precision logistics

Prioritized evacuation

Enhanced triage

The VISION

ACME: Autonomous Communications Medical Ecosystem

Moberg Analytics is developing the Autonomous Communications Medical Ecosystem (ACME) to autonomously and passively collect data from patients, caregivers, and resources to complete the DD 1380 card and to transmit the data in open formats to build the database. We are focusing on making this technology “Apple Easy” to remove the burden of training and use from the medic.

We are working with the following partners to make this vision a reality:

Without a means to collect data reliably and passively from the point of injury through higher echelons of care, the Military Health Care system will continue to lack the essential data to develop trustworthy artificial intelligence to support future concepts that will sustain medical operations in future conflicts.
