“We are excited about our collaboration with LookDeep to use AI to expand virtual safety, nursing and medical services to support our staff and improve patient care,” said Dr. Paul DePriest, Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer for Baptist Memorial Health Care.

Inpatient video has massive potential as a new form of patient monitoring and as a new kind of medical data type. One obstacle to overcome to realize this potential is the fact that video generates massive amounts of data, way more than any human can interpret (much less clinicians who are pressed for time taking care of sick patients).
Monitoring patient activity in the ICU is essential for sedation management, identifying agitation, and diagnosing delirium. Despite its importance in ICU care, activity monitoring is intermittent, subjective, and qualitative.
