Bystander Interaction with a Novel Multipurpose Medical Drone: A Simulation Trial This study examines the interaction between lay rescuers and medical drones in emergency situations. In simulations involving 24 participants, findings reveal that while 83% were comfortable with drone interaction, challenges arose with visual cues and medical kit design. These insights underscore the importance of refining drone designs and medical kits for effective use in emergencies. https://lnkd.in/dDej_rmH

In collaboration with Apian and Guy's and St Thomas' NHS Foundation Trust’, Wing has launched a cutting-edge drone delivery service to transport blood samples between Guy’s and St Thomas’ Hospitals. This initiative is designed to enhance patient care, particularly for those undergoing surgery and facing complications due to bleeding disorders. With the ability to make deliveries in under 3 minutes, the service is already making a huge impact in speeding up diagnoses, enabling quicker clinical decisions, and improving overall patient outcomes. The drones are making up to 10 deliveries per day, safely transporting blood samples in medical canisters. Local community events have introduced this innovation, and the positive response has been overwhelming. This #partnership highlights how drone technology can revolutionize healthcare logistics and help deliver better outcomes for patients.

Science and law must complement each other. As we witness technological advancements, we simultaneously see the evolution of regulations. This dynamic ensures that innovation thrives while maintaining safety and order. Drone technology is revolutionizing healthcare delivery! Partnering with Carilion Clinic, DroneUp ensures swift, efficient, and accurate movement of critical medical supplies on campus. This rapid access directly improves health outcomes and reduces mortality, marking a significant milestone for the DBX ecosystem in commercial operations. Congrats to Rishap Malhotra and all the involved parties on this accomplishment! Meanwhile, in Mexico, on June 7th, crucial reforms were published in the Diario Oficial targeting the misuse of drones with new penalties for illegal activities. These changes are a significant step forward in enhancing public safety and protecting our institutions. This dual focus highlights the incredible impact of AI-driven drone technology—promoting innovation while ensuring safety through robust legal frameworks. Kudos to the Mexican legislature for their swift and effective action, aligning with global standards and setting a precedent for the responsible use of technology. #TechForGood #Innovation #PublicSafety #AI #Drones #HealthcareRevolution #Mexico

"Picture this - you are surrounded by four white walls, the door is closed with a warning on it not to enter, a child standing just feet from you is screaming in pain, it’s your child. You can’t get closer to them as an invisible barrier holds you back. They are crying as they are pushed and cajoled into place, you are given a special coat that allows you to get close to them, now you are asked to take over and push and cajole them, as they continue to scream. Where are you? You’re in the children’s X-ray Department." For the rest of my thoughts on x-rays and the need for much needed reform, read my article here ➡️ https://lnkd.in/eDHU6BjB I look at: 🛌 The importance of patient comfort and care when getting x-rays (especially children) 💰 The impact of systemic issues on the patient experience (such as adherence to budget driven scheduling) 🤕 Human centred design in radiology (bring the tech to us) 🛩️ The potential of technology to improve the experience all round (drones anyone?) #xray #radiology #patientcentredcare #healthcareinnovation #drones #emergencymedicine

🩸📣 Exciting news has dropped in healthcare technology! 📣🩸 Starting this autumn, Guy's and St Thomas' NHS Foundation Trust , in partnership with Apian and Wing, will launch a drone delivery service for NHS blood samples! Forget the typical 30-minute drive. Think of a world where samples are delivered in a mere 2 minutes of flight! Having previously worked in haematology labs for the NHS, KVA | The New Era Agency's Senior Medical Writer, Charntaé Farrell has seen the challenges faced with the transportation of blood samples. She noted, “I had many instances during my time in the NHS where blood samples would be non-viable for lab testing upon arrival – whether caused by transport delays or other contributing factors. These delays burden the healthcare system and impact patient care. I’m excited to see how drone deliveries can reduce wait times and alleviate this burden.” This initiative shows that innovation in healthcare technology may not only streamline processes but can potentially enhance the patient experience.
