IIT-I may set up CoE on healthcare with AIIMS, MYH – ET HealthWorld


Indore: Indian Institute of Technology (IIT), Indore is in talks with the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) Delhi to establish a Center of Excellence (CoE) about health care that will use the Cyberphysical System to predict complications in patients undergoing treatment in advance and help doctors to take preventive measures.

The CoE will also supervise the operation of intensive care equipment such as CT machine, MRI machine, and ventilator that uses IOT to identify operational failures in time, conduct training, and conduct research work.

A Cyber-Physical System is a computer-based system where the mechanism is controlled or monitored by computer-based algorithms.

DRISTI cps Foundation, a technology innovation hub of IIT-I and supported by the Department of Science and Technology, is also in talks with MY Hospital Indore, Software Technology Park of India (STPI) and other players to establish the CoE on healthcare.

Professor Bhupesh Lad, Project Manager at the DRISHTI CPS Foundation, said: “We are working to establish a Center of Excellence in healthcare for which we are in discussions with the state government and other stakeholders. AIIMS and many others like Software Technology Park of India and MY hospital are under discussion.”

The IIT-I is also contemplating involving the state government in the establishment of the CoE.

Dr Deepak Agrawal, Neurosurgeon at AIIMS, Delhi, said: “The healthcare sector has remained somewhat neglected and through this initiative we learned that many healthcare problems can be resolved through cyber-physical systems. We have a joint project with Dristhi CPS, IIT Indore, in which the cyber version of neurotrauma patients are ventilated, which means that all the vital signs of these patients and the ventilator parameters will be shared in the cloud in real time and will be will do the modeling. on those vital signs. This will help predict complications before they actually happen, helping clinicians take preventative measures.” Dr. Agrawal was in Indore to attend a DRISHTI CPS Foundation technology exhibition on Sunday.

A team of around 8 to 10 AIIMS doctors specializing in medicine, emergency, neurosurgery, intensive care and cardiology will be part of this initiative.

In the initial phase, the system will alert doctors about conditions such as pulmonary edema, pneumonia and cardiac overload in patients.

“We hope that by using these solutions, clinicians can be warned a day or two before these things happen so we can take corrective action,” he said.

DRISHTI CPS Foundation organized the first edition of “SETU” (Stakeholder Engagement in Technology Upgrade) which showcased various startups, innovations and the connection of technology developers and end-users in the domain of cyber-physical systems ( CPS). Padma Bhushan Kris Gopalakrishnan, Co-Founder of Infosys, Padma Shri Professor Deepak Phatak, Chairman of the Board of IIT Indore and Professor Suhas S Joshi, Director of IIT Indore and other dignitaries from medicine, technology and other sectors were in attendance on the occasion.
