Summary:

The reporter arrived at the health room of Gaoshan Village in Chajian Town, Tianchang City, and saw that village doctor Gao Yingtong was using the intelligent medical assistant system to video connect with Dr. He Lianjiang from the Chajian Center Health Center, seeking advice on the cough and fever symptoms of villager Wang Chunhong. Through face-to-face consultation, medical statement, and medical record inquiry, He Lianjiang quickly diagnosed Wang Chunhong with acute upper respiratory tract infection. "This intelligent medical assistant system is very useful and can help our village doctors with auxiliary diagnosis, improving our diagnostic level," Gao Yingtong told reporters. Nowadays, doctors from township and village clinics in Tianchang City have used the intelligent medical assistant system. If the grassroots medical clinics are unsure about the condition, they can consult doctors from the city hospital through messages or remote videos. More importantly, this system can automatically prompt for over dose medication, incorrect administration methods, and misdiagnosis or missed diagnosis. It is understood that the "Intelligent Medical Assistant" system jointly developed by iFlytek and Tsinghua University can improve the level of grassroots medical services and facilitate patient treatment through artificial intelligence assisted diagnosis, remote consultation assistance, intelligent follow-up, and intelligent warning functions. This project was piloted in five counties and districts including Tianchang City in 2018, and has now been included in the provincial livelihood project and expanded in pilot scope. In addition to being an "intelligent medical assistant", Tianchang patients can also enjoy DR film reading services from doctors in second level hospitals in the city, as well as remote consultations from doctors in major hospitals in Nanjing and Hefei, without leaving the township, through a remote imaging diagnosis system. The reporter saw at the Radiology Department of Tianchang People's Hospital that doctor Tao Weiya was examining the DR image of Yang Youzhen, a villager from Yuzhuang Village, uploaded by the Tongcheng Central Health Center
