Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) Human error occupies a large part of the medical accidents(such as injection of wrong medicine by mistake). Although pointing and calling is one of the countermeasures of Nurses' error, it is reported that pointing and calling is not thorough from nurses' daily busy work. We propose the pointing and calling detection system for nurses that consists of a small wireless sensor attached to an upper arm, a wireless microphone attached to a head and a data processing computer. The logged history of the pointing and calling detection contributes the coaching to a new nurse from senior nurse and the looking-back at the time of writing nursing record. In this paper, we describe the result of the preliminary pointing and calling detection experiment conducted in the simulated environment by a few nurses.
