At the global \u2018Huawei Day 0 Forum \u2013 Lighting Up the Future\u2019 summit at MWC Barcelona 2022 (Mobile World Congress) in Spain, Huawei Technologies (Thailand) Co., Ltd. invited Siriraj Hospital to showcase the first world-class 5G Smart Hospital solution, which is further innovating the healthcare industry \u2013 in particular, Thailand\u2019s public health industry. Also, emphasizing that Siriraj Hospital will be a world-class blueprint for the global healthcare industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Prof. Dr. Prasit Watanapa, MD., Dean of Faculty of Medicine, Siriraj Hospital, Mahidol University<\/strong>, was invited as a representative of Thailand to share a successful \u20185G Smart Hospital in Thailand\u2019 case on the international stage said, \u201cCOVID-19 has brought challenges to every industry worldwide, especially healthcare sector. It is our belief that digital technologies are essential and that innovation, as well as smart infrastructure, will have an incredible impact. This belief led to our vision of creating 5G Smart Hospital, where Thailand\u2019s public health can improve social wellbeing and enhance the productivity and efficiency of healthcare services. Since the beginning of the pandemic, Siriraj Hospital and Huawei Thailand have partnered on various projects, including the development of AI-assisted diagnoses and 5G unmanned cars for the first time in Thailand. In December last year, we also launched the first 5G Smart Hospital project in ASEAN, with technology and innovation to drive ICT transformation in Thailand’s healthcare sector.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n 5G Smart Hospital<\/p>\n\n\n\n Prof. Dr. Prasit added that the 5G Smart Hospital initiative will help create new medical service models and enhance the process efficiency of a hospital with 5G capabilities. This is made possible as 5G provides a high-speed network with low latency, which increases the overall effectiveness of data transfers, patient monitoring, data analytics, and remote medical care to achieve better patient care and operational efficiency. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The initiative\u00a0to establish Siriraj Hospital as a Smart Hospital started a year before the pandemic and was accelerated by the utilization of 5G and MEC (Multi-access Edge Computing). These technologies enabled the team to implement a 5G private network, which provides high security, enhanced network experiences and the ability to connect everyone and everything using cloud technology and artificial intelligence.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cWithin a few years from now, the digital services adopted at the Faculty of Medicine Siriraj Hospital will expand beyond the initial nine projects. All these initiatives will help to scale the quality and productivity of other hospitals and healthcare services. This will transform Siriraj Hospital into a role model for other public hospitals and will act as a blueprint for all Smart Hospitals in the country going forward. The partnership between Siriraj Hospital and Huawei will enhance and upgrade the services of the hospital, and this will serve as a model for upgrading Thailand\u2019s public health industry in the future,\u201d he concluded.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u0e3aBig impact for Thailand\u2019s healthcare sector<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Siriraj 5G Smart Hospital project was built on collaboration between Siriraj Hospital, the National Broadcasting and Telecommunications Commission (NBTC), and Huawei Technologies (Thailand) Co., Ltd. The project is having a big impact on enhancing Thailand\u2019s healthcare sector. As the NBTC realized the importance of utilizing 5G technology for medical applications, it provided a support fund to \u20185G SMART Hospital enabled with AI\u2019 to improve overall processes in the hospital, medical treatment, and well-being by utilizing 5G, cloud, AI, and digital technology. This is the beginning of 5G practical use case in Thailand from innovative 5G and cloud solutions that Huawei has developed to enhance the Thai healthcare sector and transform Siriraj into a world class 5G Smart Hospital. The National 5G Committee also approved the project to help improve medical services, the healthcare industry, and develop the first Smart Hospital in Thailand in order for the country to be ready for any new emerging technologies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cIn the future, Siriraj Hospital will continue to work with Huawei to develop new innovations and create new value by utilizing new digital technologies. Our goal is to improve our service levels, increase our work efficiency, and enhance Thailand\u2019s healthcare capabilities. We will boost our medical services with cloud technology. The collaboration is in line with the commitment of the Faculty of Medicine, which is \u2018Siriraj is the Medical Institute of the Nation, a Creator of Global Citizen Wellbeing\u2019. In addition, Siriraj aims to be a blueprint for all other Smart Hospitals in Thailand and at a global level,\u201d Prof. Dr. Prasit Watanapa, MD.added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Huewei aims to enhance Thailand medical<\/p>\n\n\n\n Huawei, as a leading organization in technology and a good enterprise citizen, aims to enhance Thailand\u2019s technological advancement and improve the capabilities of Thai medical staff, by providing innovative solutions from HUAWEI CLOUD and HUAWEI 5G technology, which has helped with diagnoses, operations and cooperation within Siriraj Hospital. The project was the starting point of extensive digital technology use in the Thai public health sector; also cloud technology will improve the quality of medical service to a new level. The 5G network will enhance the effectiveness of medical services in the hospital by guaranteeing the quality of high-speed connections, network stability and low latency. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The healthcare system will see improved efficiency in patient monitoring, data collection and analytics as well as remote collaboration. It also sets an example for digitalized, data-driven and cloud-based innovative major public emergency responses. Utilizing 5G and cloud technologies in a Smart Hospital will open the door for many new healthcare services for Thailand, such as Smart EMS, Smart Inventory Management with AI technology through 5G network, Smart Emergency Room, and Smart Logistics with 5G unmanned vehicles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n MWC Barcelona is the world\u2019s most influential event for the connectivity industry. It\u2019s where world-leading companies and trailblazers share the latest thought leadership about the progression and future of connectivity. In the event Huawei will be exhibiting ground-breaking products and technologies, and make remarkable connections with senior decision-makers, creators, and innovators in the industry.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Huawei Technologies (Thailand) Co., Ltd. invited Siriraj Hospital to showcase the first world-class 5G Smart Hospital solution, which is further innovating the healthcare industry \u2013 in particular, Thailand\u2019s public health industry.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":57166,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"itsec_x_frame_options":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[122],"tags":[11783,11784,11785,11786],"class_list":["post-57165","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-technology-en","tag-siriraj-hospital","tag-dr-prasit-watanapa","tag-thailand-5g-smart-hospital","tag-smart-hospital"],"yoast_head":"\n
