[Use of AI-based applications by hospital staff: task profiles and qualification requirements]. / Einsatz von KI-basierten Anwendungen durch Krankenhauspersonal: Aufgabenprofile und Qualifizierungsbedarfe.

BACKGROUND: Artificial intelligence (AI) is becoming increasingly important for the future development of hospitals. To unlock the large potential of AI, job profiles of hospital staff members need to be further developed in the direction of AI and digitization skills through targeted qualification measures. This affects both medical and non-medical processes along the entire value chain in hospitals. The aim of this paper is to provide an overview of the skills required to deal with smart technologies in a clinical context and to present measures for training employees. METHODS: As part of the "SmartHospital.NRW" project in 2022, we conducted a literature review as well as interviews and workshops with experts. AI technologies and fields of application were identified. RESULTS: Key findings include adapted and new task profiles, synergies and dependencies between individual task profiles, and the need for a comprehensive interdisciplinary and interprofessional exchange when using AI-based applications in hospitals. DISCUSSION: Our article shows that hospitals need to promote digital health literacy skills for hospital staff members at an early stage and at the same time recruit technology- and AI-savvy staff. Interprofessional exchange formats and accompanying change management are essential for the use of AI in hospitals.

EEG Spectral Changes Linked to Psychiatric Medications: Computational Pipeline for Data Mining and Analysis.

The presented computational pipeline is designed to analyze drug-induced changes in EEG data from the Temple University EEG Corpus. The data is cleaned from artifacts, pre-processed, the averaged absolute and relative frequency powers are calculated and compared to a control group. Thus, different research hypotheses can be tested with the intention to reuse accessible data collections.

The Hygiene Games.

Addressing the correlation of hospital acquired infections and insufficient hand hygiene, we propose a supportive system to enhance the individual hygiene habits of health care workers. By applying gamification to incentivize health care professionals while maintaining a high standard of privacy and usability, the system focuses on technical simplicity by using concepts like bring your own device in a scaleable proof of concept implementation.
