Why it matters
Similar numbers of consultants. 26 times the population.
South East Asia’s 1.8 billion people are served by about as many emergency medicine consultants as the UK’s 69 million. Many of our NHS colleagues trained there. We share what we learn in Leeds as a way of giving back.
Innovation in practice
Three innovation projects in Leeds
Our work includes an AI scribe, AI support for fracture detection and a virtual reality training environment.
AI scribe
AI drafts the clinical note for the clinician to check. This reduces documentation time and gives clinicians more time with patients.
AI radiology
We are evaluating AI support for fracture detection in adult and paediatric emergency care. The aim is to reduce missed diagnoses.
ViRsTiLE virtual ED
A virtual environment for practising rare, high-risk emergency procedures, being developed in collaboration with Dynamic.
