by L.C.D. Lopes, C. Neumann, M. Machado

Abstract

Healthcare systems have been overwhelmed due to the Covid-19 pandemic outbreak. To avoid future collapses, it is essential to discover how to utilize the concepts of the fourth industrial revolution to create a system architecture that is able to analyze the information flow in a hospital emergency department. Therefore, it is possible to empower clinical staff with information to optimize their decision-making and make optimal use of hospital resources. The results show that the concepts of the fourth industrial revolution can be applied in the healthcare sector to develop a theoretical health 4.0 architecture.
