The health system is highly dependent on supplemental oxygen, used in many medical procedures. During the COVID-19 pandemic, the demand for oxygen increased which requires an increase in management and clinical efficiency. The monitoring of the oxygen is currently performed by a person who observes the flow rate and adjusts it according to the medical prescription for the patient. This process has limited efficiency for monitoring dosage and leaks. The O2 Sensor Measurement, Transmission and Analysis System (ATAS O2) automatically measures the oxygen flow in the hospital’s piping system and transmits the data through its own internet network, improving oxygen management. The main objective of the study is to evaluate the costs and benefits of using the ATAS O2 system for monitoring and managing medical oxygen to hospital beds and to determine whether the technology will generate a financial and clinical benefit for the health system.

Kugundua miradi zaidi katika mbalimbali ya sekta na taaluma <unk> kutoka AI kwa cleantech kwa ubunifu wa kijamii. Mfumo wa afya unategemea sana oksijeni ya ziada, inayotumiwa katika taratibu nyingi za kitiba. Wakati wa janga la COVID-19, mahitaji ya oksijeni yaliongezeka ambayo inahitaji kuongezeka kwa usimamizi na ufanisi wa kliniki. Ufuatiliaji wa oksijeni unafanywa na mtu ambaye huangalia kiwango cha mtiririko na kuirekebisha kulingana na maagizo ya daktari kwa mgonjwa. Utaratibu huu una ufanisi mdogo kwa ajili ya ufuatiliaji wa kipimo na uvujaji. O2 Sensor Measurement, Transmission and Analysis System (ATAS) ni mfumo wa kupima mtiririko wa oksijeni katika mfumo wa bomba la hospitali na kusambaza data kupitia mtandao wake mwenyewe wa mtandao, kuboresha usimamizi wa oksijeni. Lengo kuu la utafiti ni kutathmini gharama na faida za kutumia mfumo wa ATAS-O2 kwa ufuatiliaji na usimamizi wa oksijeni ya matibabu kwa vitanda vya hospitali na kuamua ikiwa teknolojia hiyo itazalisha faida ya kifedha na kliniki kwa mfumo wa afya. "Kama ""Mwanzilishi wa Mitacs"" na ""Mwanzilishi wa Mitacs,"" Mwalimu wa Mitacs ni mchangiaji wa Mitacs katika maendeleo ya teknolojia ya teknolojia ya teknolojia ya teknolojia ya teknolojia ya teknolojia ya teknolojia ya teknolojia ya teknolojia ya teknolojia ya teknolojia ya teknolojia ya teknolojia ya teknolojia ya teknolojia ya teknolojia ya teknolojia ya teknolojia ya teknolojia ya teknolojia ya teknolojia ya teknolojia ya teknolojia."
