Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly affected the global community, imposing high demands on frontline medical professionals. A critical challenge is to enhance the safety of these workers while keeping medical operations efficient. To tackle this, we developed a Remote Operating System (ROS) for touch-controlled medical monitoring devices in ICU, comprising a client-side user interface and a server-side Remote Interaction Platform (RIP). The ROS is versatile, and compatible with various touch-screen-controlled hospital monitoring devices, enabling remote real-time monitoring and control via the client interface. Tested on a ventilator in an ICU, the ROS showed remarkable convenience. The process—from launching the client interface and adjusting the video stream to completing operations—takes under a minute. Furthermore, it reaches high accuracy, demonstrating the system’s reliability and its potential to minimize infection risks and alleviate the work pressure on healthcare workers in high-stress ICU environments.
