Overview

To address workforce shortages and increasing workloads in nursing, technological solutions and AI-powered robots for ward navigation have been introduced. However, limitations remain in their application to clinical care. This study aims to develop and test a programming framework for an AI-assisted nursing care robot ("E-Nursing Assistant") to reduce nurses' workload and improve the efficiency and quality of care.

Description

In response to the challenges of workforce shortages and heavy workloads in the nursing field, clinical nursing practices are gradually integrating technological assistance, including the use of mobile phones to scan QR codes for viewing instructional videos and the introduction of robots with Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology for ward navigation. However, there are still several limitations to these technological applications in the nursing care process. Therefore, this study aims to develop and test the programming framework for an AI-assisted nursing care robot ("E-Nursing Assistant"). The goal is to reduce the workload of nursing staff and significantly improve the efficiency and quality of nursing work. The "E-Nursing Assistant" will be implemented in the ward to measure the nursing staff's workload, the time and frequency spent on specific nursing tasks, and to conduct interviews to gather their feedback.

FAQs

Learn more about clinical trials

What is a clinical trial?

A clinical trial is a study designed to test specific interventions or treatments' effectiveness and safety, paving the way for new, innovative healthcare solutions.

Why should I take part in a clinical trial?

Participating in a clinical trial provides early access to potentially effective treatments and directly contributes to the healthcare advancements that benefit us all.

How long does a clinical trial take place?

The duration of clinical trials varies. Some trials last weeks, some years, depending on the phase and intention of the trial.

Do I get compensated for taking part in clinical trials?

Compensation varies per trial. Some offer payment or reimbursement for time and travel, while others may not.

How safe are clinical trials?

Clinical trials follow strict ethical guidelines and protocols to safeguard participants' health. They are closely monitored and safety reviewed regularly.
