Abstract:
In various embodiments, an image monitoring device (100) may acquire (200) video data that captures a medical room. Image processing may be performed on the acquired image data to perform the following tasks: identifying (202) at least one medical apparatus (402) in the medical room; identifying (204) a medical personnel in the medical room; detecting (206) that the medical personnel has occluded a line of sight between the image monitoring device and the at least one medical apparatus; and determining (206) an amount of time that the medical personnel occludes the line of sight. In various embodiments, the amount of time may be compared to one or more thresholds set forth by the first medical protocol. An alert may be triggered (208) in response to a determination that the amount of time fails to satisfy a first threshold of the one or more thresholds.
