• Abstract: Designing Artificial Intelligence (AI) solutions that can operate in real-world situations is a highly complex task. Deploying such solutions in the medical domain is even more challenging. The promise of using AI to improve patient care and reduce cost has encouraged many companies to undertake such endeavours. For our team, the goal has been to improve early identification of deteriorating patients in the hospital. Identifying patient deterioration in lower acuity wards relies, to a large degree on the attention and intuition of clinicians, rather than on the presence of physiological monitoring devices. In these care areas, an automated tool which could continuously observe patients and notify the clinical staff of suspected deterioration, would be extremely valuable. In order to develop such an AI-enabled tool, a large collection of patient images and audio correlated with corresponding vital signs, past medical history and clinical outcome would be indispensable. To the best of our knowledge, no such public or for-pay data set currently exists. This lack of audio-visual data led to the decision to conduct exactly such study. The main contributions of this paper are, the description of a protocol for audio-visual data collection study, a cloud-architecture for efficiently processing and consuming such data, and the design of a specific data collection device.

  We propose that large language models (LLMs) offer more immediately practical applications by enhancing clinicians' capabilities. We present a framework for responsible AI integration that leverages LLMs' ability to communicate effectively with both patients and providers. This approach prioritizes standardized, high-quality data collection to enable a system that learns from every patient encounter.

We first created the dataset, an extensive collection of over 50,000 unique (medical term, lay definition) pairs and 300,000 mentions. We have also engineered a data-centric Human-AI pipeline that synergizes data filtering, augmentation, and selection to improve data quality.

  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.
