Abstract

Objectives: The research work focus on: 1. Shorten the decision-making time for resuscitated patients during treatment. 2. Designed and embedded software to bedside scale applied at Ha Dong General Hospital. Method: Research, synthesize parameters, build formulas, and program embedded software on the bedside scales applied for ICU patients at the intensive care and anti-toxicity department, Ha Dong General Hospital. Results: A portable bedside scale has been successfully designed with a maximum weight range of 200kg, measurement accuracy of 0.05kg/full range, and supporting software for calculating parameters related to ICU patients including BMI, calculate glomerular filtration rate, calculate vasopressor doses, calculate the volume of fluid in infusion test and provide information tables on antibiotic dose and nutritional requirements for patients. Conclude: With the software to support the calculation of treatment parameters for the patient embedded with the mobile bedside scale, the time to calculate the doctor's parameters is significantly shortened, a new achievement in comparison with other types of ICU patient weighting scales now. The system is not only applied for supporting doctors, shortening the time of decision making but also used as a training system for hospitals. This system will be very useful in case of pandemics like Covid-19 time.
