• Abstract: Current day pain assessment methods rely on patient self-report or by an observer like the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) nurses. Patient self-report is subjective to the individual and suffers due to poor recall. Pain assessment by manual observation is limited by the number of administrations per day and staff workload. Previous studies showed the feasibility of automatic pain assessment by detecting Facial Action Units (AUs). Pain is observed to be associated with certain facial action units (AUs). This method of pain assessment can overcome the pitfalls of present-day pain assessment techniques. All the previous studies are limited to controlled environment data. In this study, we evaluated the performance of OpenFace an open-source facial behavior analysis tool and AU R-CNN on the real-world ICU data. Presence of assisted breathing devices, variable lighting of ICUs, patient orientation with respect to camera significantly affected the performance of the models, although these showed the state-of-the-art results in facial behavior analysis tasks. In this study, we show the need for automated pain assessment system which is trained on real-world ICU data for clinically acceptable pain assessment system.

• Leveraging Computer Vision in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) for Examining Visitation and Mobility [12.347067736902094]
  We leverage a state-of-the-art noninvasive computer vision system based on depth imaging to characterize ICU visitations and patients' mobility. We found an association between deteriorating patient acuity and the incidence of delirium with increased visitations. Our findings highlight the feasibility and potential of using noninvasive autonomous systems to monitor ICU patients.

  The intensive care unit (ICU) is a specialized hospital space where critically ill patients receive intensive care and monitoring. Comprehensive monitoring is imperative in assessing patients conditions, in particular acuity, and ultimately the quality of care. Currently, visual assessments for acuity, including fine details such as facial expressions, posture, and mobility, are sporadically captured, or not captured at all.

• Pain level and pain-related behaviour classification using GRU-based sparsely-connected RNNs [61.080598804629375]
  People with chronic pain unconsciously adapt specific body movements to protect themselves from injury or additional pain. Because there is no dedicated benchmark database to analyse this correlation, we considered one of the specific circumstances that potentially influence a person's biometrics during daily activities. We proposed a sparsely-connected recurrent neural networks (s-RNNs) ensemble with the gated recurrent unit (GRU) that incorporates multiple autoencoders. We conducted several experiments which indicate that the proposed method outperforms the state-of-the-art approaches in classifying both pain level and pain-related behaviour.

  The emergence of COVID-19 has had a global and profound impact, not only on society as a whole, but also on the lives of individuals. Various prevention measures were introduced around the world to limit the transmission of the disease, including face masks, mandates for social distancing and regular disinfection in public spaces, and the use of screening applications. These developments triggered the need for novel and improved computer vision techniques capable of (i) providing support to the prevention measures through an automated analysis of visual data, on the one hand, and (ii) facilitating normal operation of existing vision-based services, such as biometric authentication

Using static images and multi-modal data to predict self-reported pain levels, early models show significant gaps between current methods available to predict pain.
