Parallel Session 9 - Smart Hospital in Asia Pacific

With the ever-rising healthcare cost and ageing population, a SMART hospital is high sought after. This can only be built over time with iterations, and we have to start small with a segment of care. 
In Singapore General Hospital, we build several innovations for our operating theatres. Our tenets are safety, synchrony, sustainability and social, which is applicable to many other areas. 
We learnt that data type required may not be routinely collected. Existing infrastructure and its connectivity to the equipment may not exist. Workflow will needed to be adapted to new innovation and the workforce needs to prepared for re-training. 
The definition of value creation should be diverse and beyond that of finances. With the world-wide insatiable need for healthcare provider, both patient's and staff experiences must be added in our equation for healthcare value.

The rise of digital technologies presents unparalleled opportunities for smart hospitals to transform healthcare delivery systems. In this presentation, we delve into the strategic role of digital mastery in driving population health management and value-based care models. Smart hospitals, empowered by AI, machine learning, and telehealth solutions, are shifting from reactive medical models to proactive, preventive, and personalized healthcare strategies. Leveraging data analytics and predictive modeling enables them to optimize resource allocation, anticipate patient needs, and deliver superior care quality.
Eliminating data silos and enhancing interoperability across health services are crucial for comprehensive patient profiling and coordinated care delivery. This is essential in achieving the transition towards value-based healthcare. Practical strategies and real-world case studies will guide healthcare leaders in integrating these technologies while addressing the ethical challenges of digital transformation. By adopting these practices, smart hospitals can become leaders in achieving improved patient outcomes and fostering healthier communities through effective, value-based care.

The rapid development of new-generation information technology represented by cloud computing, big data, Internet of Things, 5G mobile networks and artificial intelligence is becoming a new engine for high-quality development of hospitals in China mainland. Building smart hospitals integrating smart services, smart medical care and smart management has become a consensus for large tertiary hospitals to strive for inter-hospital development in China mainland. the National Healthcare Commission has organized and conducted the graded assessments of electronic medical records, smart services and smart management, which strongly guided and promoted the process of building smart hospitals.
As a forerunner in building smart hospitals, Ruijin Hospital affiliated to Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine has obtained the seventh level of electronic medical records graded assessment, the fourth level of smart services graded assessment, and the third level of smart management graded self-assessment, which is ranked among the top in China. In terms of smart services, through the pilot application of "Convenient Medical Services of Digital Transformation 1.0 to 3.0” in different scenarios, Ruijin Hospital has provided services via mobile devices, the "One Mobile Phone for Hospital Visits, Digital Transformation Empowering Smart Hospitals" service has been recognized as one of the top ten healthcare reform initiatives in Shanghai. In the aspect of smart healthcare, effective applications have been achieved for clinical decision-making assistance (e.g. Venous thromboembolism (VTE) prevention and treatment), diagnostic and treatment assistance for radiology and pathology. These applications improved the quality and efficiency of diagnosis and treatment. For smart management, Ruijin Hospital has applied smart logistic robots in a large scale in different scenarios. A digital twin smart operation and management platform has also been built to monitor trends of hospital operation and manage operational details. These practices have enhanced the hospital’s precision management capabilities.
以云计算、大数据、物联网、5G移动网络、人工智能等为代表的新一代信息技术快速发展，正在成为中国内地医院高质量发展的新引擎。建设智慧服务、智慧医疗和智慧管理为一体的智慧医院已成为中国内地大型三级医院争取跨院式发展的共识。国家卫生健康委组织开展了电子病历、智慧服务、智慧管理的分级评估工作，也有力指导和推动了智慧医院建设进程。瑞金医院作为国内智慧医院建设的先行者，已获得电子病历分级评估七级、智慧服务分级评估四级和智慧管理分级自评估三级，位列国内前茅。在智慧服务方面，通过先行先试便捷就医服务数字化转型1.0-3.0场景，瑞金医院推出的“一部手机走医院，数字化转型赋能智慧医院”获得上海市医改十大举措。在智慧医疗方面，通过引入AI技术，在以静脉血栓栓塞症（VTE）防治为代表的临床辅助决策，及以放射、病理为代表的医学影像辅助诊疗方面取得有效应用，提升了诊疗质量和效率。在智慧管理方面，瑞金医院构建了智能物流机器人规模化应用场景，建设了数字孪生智能运管平台形成对全院运营的态势感知和细节管控，提升了医院的精细化管理能力。
