    Project summary

    The project departs from the awareness that maternity wards are pressed for time and resources and the visitation for the wards are typically not very precise meaning that patients are getting there too soon or too late. Both are aggravating the pressure on the wards and the midwifes and other personnel. The idea of designing algorithms trained by data from the normal visitation is that it may help the visitation to the wards become more precise and save resources as well as lives.

    Status

    The project has begun the process of data collection, have communicated the intentions of the project to the personnel and expect to apply the algorithms in the visitation within 1 to 2 years.

    The project team has asked us to make a pre-implementation study to try to map the “AI-readiness” of the two wards (that is, of the implicated staff). This interview study is expected to run in the late Spring – Summer 2023. Findings from the study will be published on the Network's website as applicable. 

    The project is led by network members Jon Sundbo and Frans Bévort, and takes place in maternity wards atthe hospitals of Hvidovre and Herlev.
