Early warning of patient's deteriorating condition
Scientists at CSIRO (Australia's Government Science & Industrial Research Organisation) are developing a machine learning tool which provides an early warning to medical professionals of a patient’s deteriorating condition.   The study, published in Nature: Scientific Reports, showed the early warning deterioration alerts can be set to monitor patients two to eight hours before they are triggered by current clinical criteria.  CSIRO's Dr Dr Sankalp Khanna says, 'Until now there hasn’t been a way to harness all the data to predict patient health. This new tool has the potential to transform the day-to-day functioning of health systems'.

This unique feature makes it potentially more advantageous for industrial sites seeking to decarbonise. But this Topsoe production site might just help make the units more prevalent!https://globalenergyprize.org/en/2022/09/06/the-worlds-largest-electrolyser-plant/
