A holographic doctors’ assistant on the example of a wireless heart rate monitor

Abstract

Abstract Microsoft has created HoloLens glasses, a high-tech device used for holographic purposes, which is unique and superior to other available solutions. We present a new idea of a holographic assistant to doctors, using as an example a wireless patient data monitor. A dedicated application will be created to be used by doctors, allowing hands-free access to patient cards/data, reviewing of new/old examination results, and even the ability to work on real-time data. Doctors will be able to use this in the examination room, at a patient’s bedside, or in an entirely different location. Currently, analysis of patient data is done mostly by the doctor; however, huge progress in computer hardware performance and artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms has allowed the development of new methods used to analyze and classify patient examination results. In the same way that doctors learn and practice how to treat patients during their studies, algorithms can learn to spot abnormalities, allowing current technology and advanced AI algorithms to be joined in one high-tech solution that should provide initial assessment of patients’ health and give treatment guidance, if necessary.
