The goal of emergency medicine is to treat time-critical diseases and conditions to reduce morbidity and mortality. The improvement of emergency medicine is an important topic for governments worldwide. A common problem is the inevitable lack of support by emergency doctors, when paramedics need their assistance at the emergency site but are without an emergency doctor. Video-communication in real time from the emergency site to an emergency doctor, offers an opportunity to enhance the quality of emergency medicine. The core piece of this study is a video camera system called “LiveCity camera”, enabling real-time high quality video connection of paramedics and emergency doctors. The impact of video communication on emergency medicine is clearly appreciated among providers, based upon the extent of agreement that has been stated in this study´s questionnaire by doctors and paramedics. This study is part of the FP7-European Union funded research project “LiveCity” (Grant Agreement No. 297291).

Prehospital emergency medicine treats time-critical diseases and conditions and aims to reduce morbidity and mortality. The progression of emergency medicine is an important topic for governments worldwide. A problem occurs when paramedics need assistance at the emergency site by emergency doctors, who cannot be present. Video-communication in real-time from the emergency site to an emergency doctor offers an opportunity to enhance the quality of emergency medicine. The core piece of this study is a video camera system called “LiveCity camera,” enabling real-time high quality video connection of paramedics and emergency doctors.

Prehospital emergency medicine strives to treat (potentially) life-threatening conditions as early as possible and thus reduce preventable disabilities and deaths. MHealth enables the transfer of knowledge to the emergency site. The purpose of this chapter is to display different approaches. Knowledge can be brought to the emergency site e.g. by smart phone applications allowing retrieval of data or by real-time communication with a remote medical expert. High definition video communication in real time offers the highest amount of mHealth communication currently available in prehospital emergency medicine. Projects, using such a video communication are discussed. In the European Union funded project LiveCity a special video camera was developed and tested. After having encountered simulated emergency scenarios, emergency doctors and paramedics rated the video connection as helpful, an improvement of the quality of patient care and could imagine working with such a video consultation. MHealth has huge potential for the application in prehospital emergency medicine.

AbstractThe aim of this study was to assess the impact of a 6-week specialized training program aimed at strengthening core muscles to improve the effectiveness of selected elements of a swimming race in group of elite polish swimmers. Sixteen male national and international level swimmers (21.6 ± 2.2 years) participated in the research. The competitors were randomly assigned to 1 of 2 groups before the data collection process: an experimental (EG, n = 8) and control (CG, n = 8) group. Both groups of swimmers carried out the same training program in the water environment (volume and intensity), while swimmers from EG additionally carried out the specific core muscle training. The task of the swimmers was an individual swim of 50 meters freestyle, during which the kinematic parameters of start, turn and swimming techniques were recorded using the video camera system. In both groups a minor increase in the flight phase was observed during the start (EG=0.06 m, 1.8%; p=0.088; CG = 0.08 m, 2.7%; p=0.013). The time of the distance 5 m after the turn and the recorded average speed of swimming this distance in EG statistically significant improved accordingly 0.1 s (−28.6%; p<0.001) and 3.56 m·s-1 (23.2%; p=0.001). In EG, a statistically significant improvement in 50-m freestyle performance was observed by 0.3 s (−1.2%, p = 0.001). The results of the research show that the implementation of isolated strength of the stabilizing muscles seems to be a valuable addition to the standard training of swimmers.

Loss Control

Time critical nature of the real-time communication usually makes connection-oriented protocols such as TCP useless, because retransmission of old and probably expired packets is not desired. However, connectionless protocols such as UDP do not provide such packet loss control and suitable for real-time communication such as voice or video communication. In this paper, we present an adaptive approach for the intelligent packet loss control for connectionless real-time voice communication. Instead of detecting and resending lost voice packets, this heuristic estimates the packet loss rate adaptively using a modified version of reinforcement learning and resends the most critical packets before they are expired. Our simulations indicate that this approach is promising for a remarkable improvement in QoS of real-time voice communication.

Packaging manufacturers are challenged to achieve consistent strength targets and maximize production while reducing costs through smarter fiber utilization, chemical optimization, energy reduction, and more. With innovative instrumentation readily accessible, mills are collecting vast amounts of data that provide them with ever increasing visibility into their processes. Turning this visibility into actionable insight is key to successfully exceeding customer expectations and reducing costs. Predictive analytics supported by machine learning can provide real-time quality measures that remain robust and accurate in the face of changing machine conditions. These adaptive quality “soft sensors” allow for more informed, on-the-fly process changes; fast change detection; and process control optimization without requiring periodic model tuning. The use of predictive modeling in the paper industry has increased in recent years; however, little attention has been given to packaging finished quality. The use of machine learning to maintain prediction relevancy under everchanging machine conditions is novel. In this paper, we demonstrate the process of establishing real-time, adaptive quality predictions in an industry focused on reel-to-reel quality control, and we discuss the value created through the availability and use of real-time critical quality.
