Radi is an AI-based medical robot innovatively designed to augment nursing efficiency and elevate patient care standards. Amidst staffing limitations, nurses manage multiple responsibilities across shifts in hospital routines. Despite these challenges, nurses are tasked with swiftly and accurately assessing numerous patient conditions. Radi lightens the workload by leveraging AI to deliver real-time updates on patient medications and treatments, streamlining nursing tasks for enhanced precision and comprehensive patient monitoring. Radi is designed to be seamlessly integrated into a coworker rather than just standing as hospital equipment with a hard image of a hospital. Its projector system allows nurses to easily access patient symptoms and specific details during IV fluid preparation and dressing changes, providing critical medication and dressing information promptly. Nurses manage patient data and medication workflows seamlessly within Radi, optimizing efficiency. Equipped with side drawers for storing various disinfectants and a top tray for easy access to medications, Radi ensures swift preparation of treatments. Additional storage in its lower section accommodates frequently used medical supplies, promoting accessibility and operational fluidity. These attributes collectively empower Radi to meticulously manage hospital processes, fostering superior service delivery to benefit patients, caregivers, and healthcare personnel alike.
