• Abstract: Retained surgical bodies (RSB) are any foreign bodies left inside the patient after a medical procedure. RSB is often caused by human mistakes or miscommunication between medical staff during the procedure. Infection, medical complications, and even death are possible consequences of RSB, and it is a significant risk for patients, hospitals, and surgical staff. In this paper. we describe the engineering process we have done to explore the design space, define a feasible solution, and simulate, verify, and validate a state-of-the-art Cyber-Physical System that can significantly decrease the incidence of RSB and thus increase patients' survivability rate. This system might save patients' suffering and lives and reduce medical staff negligence lawsuits while improving the hospital's reputation. The paper illustrates each step of the process with examples and describes the chosen solution in detail.

  This paper proposes a novel approach for predicting hospital length of stay (LOS) by modeling patient information as sequences of events. We present a transformer-based model, termed Medic-BERT (M-BERT), for LOS prediction using the unique features describing patients medical event sequences. Experimental results show that M-BERT can achieve high accuracy on a variety of LOS problems and outperforms traditional nonsequence-based machine learning approaches.

  The paper proposes an approach to model and simulate the ambulance dispatching process in multi-agents healthcare environments of large cities. The proposed approach is based on using the coupled game-theoretic (GT) approach to identify hospital strategies. The study considers the problem of dispatching ambulances to patients with the ACS directed to the PCI in the target hospital.
