Wistron Medical Technology Corp (緯創醫學), a subsidiary of contract electronics manufacturer Wistron Corp (緯創), yesterday said that it is cooperating with En Chu Kong Hospital in New Taipei City to develop “smart hospital architecture” and establish an intelligent healthcare ecosystem.
The smart hospital architecture is a system aimed at providing personalized and intelligent bedside healthcare to patients by employing the Internet of Things, big data analysis and artificial intelligence, Wistron Medical said in a statement.
The firm is also launching a series of smart solutions that aids hemodialysis through self check-in systems and notifications of high-risk symptoms in patients through big data analysis, it said.
At En Chu Kong Hospital, Wistron Medical is setting up three main systems aimed at ameliorating hemodialysis treatment, which include ICD-10 smart recommendations.
One system relies on big data analysis to provide doctors with the correct diagnosis code by typing in a keyword.
Another system handles operating room scheduling through analysis of data gathered from the central command system and individual operating rooms.
Wistron Medical said that it is also building a voice-activated communications platform for medical professionals, which could improve their efficiency by simplifying administrative work and accelerating their access to patients’ medical records.
The company has also formally partnered with Kaohsiung Municipal Siaogang Hospital to detect dementia in older people through various applied technologies, such as posture recognition, interactive multimedia and wearable devices designed to monitor physical activity.
Wistron Medical said that it would display its smart solutions at the Taiwan International Medical & Healthcare Exhibition, which begins today and ends on Saturday at the Taipei World Trade Center’s Exhibition Hall 1.

Nvidia Corp’s GB300 platform is expected to account for 70 to 80 percent of global artificial intelligence (AI) server rack shipments this year, while adoption of its next-generation Vera Rubin 200 platform is to gradually gain momentum after the third quarter of the year, TrendForce Corp (集邦科技) said.

Global semiconductor stocks advanced yesterday, as comments by Nvidia Corp chief executive officer Jensen Huang (黃仁勳) at Davos, Switzerland, helped reinforce investor enthusiasm for artificial intelligence (AI). Samsung Electronics Co gained as much as 5 percent to an all-time high, helping drive South Korea’s benchmark KOSPI above 5,000 for the first time. That came after the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index rose more than 3 percent to a fresh record on Wednesday, with a boost from Nvidia.
