Singapore General Hospital is developing an AI solution to determine the necessity of prescribing antibiotics, reduce their use, and identify the most appropriate ones for each patient.
Developed with DXC Technology, the Augmented Intelligence in Infectious Diseases (AI2D) is an AI model currently covering pneumonia cases. It was built using identifiable clinical data, including X-rays, clinical symptoms, vital signs, and infection response trends, of around 8,000 SGH patients between 2019 and 2020. It covered seven broad-spectrum intravenous antibiotics commonly prescribed against pneumonia.
