The personalized recommendation unit recommends learning materials that meet the user's interests and needs based on this data.

[0058] The personalized recommendation unit comprehensively analyzes the patient's personal information using random forest, including the following steps:

[0059] Data collection and preprocessing: Collect the patient's personal information, including age, gender, medical history, living habits, medication records, etc. Clean and preprocess the collected data to remove redundant and incorrect information and ensure the accuracy and integrity of the data.

[0060] Feature selection and extraction: Extract features related to the patient's health needs and education focus from the preprocessed data. Use feature selection algorithms to further screen key features to improve the prediction performance of the model.

[0061] Build a random forest model: Use the processed data to train the random forest model. Random forest is a classifier that contains multiple decision trees, and its output result is determined by the mode of the categories output by individual trees. During the training process, optimize the performance of the model by adjusting the parameters of the random forest (such as the number of decision trees, maximum depth, selection of splitting features, etc.). Decision tree splitting criterion: The Gini index is used to select the optimal splitting feature. Gini index formula: Gini(D)=1-∑i = 1k(pi)2 where D represents the data set, k represents the number of categories, and pi represents the probability of the i-th category.

[0062] Generate personalized guidance plans: For new patients, input their personal information into the trained random forest model to obtain the prediction results of their health needs and education priorities. The prediction results output by the random forest are determined by the mode of the categories output by individual trees. Suppose there are T decision trees, and the prediction result of each tree for a certain sample is ci (i = 1, 2,..., T), then the prediction result output by the random forest is the ci that appears most frequently. According to the prediction results, generate personalized guidance plans for patients, including education content, learning methods, suggestions, etc. Dynamically adjust the education content and difficulty: During the process of patients receiving health education, monitor their health status and learning progress in real time. According to the patients' real-time feedback and learning effects, use the random forest model to re-evaluate their health needs and education priorities. According to the evaluation results, dynamically adjust the difficulty and depth of the education content to ensure that patients can gradually master the required knowledge.

[0063] Model evaluation and optimization: Regularly evaluate the random forest model, including calculating indicators such as accuracy and recall. Optimize the model according to the evaluation results, such as adjusting parameters, adding features, etc.

[0064] Use the random forest algorithm to provide personalized health education services for patients.

[0065] Data collection: The platform collected the personal information of a patient, including age (45 years old), gender (male), medical history (hypertension, diabetes), lifestyle habits (smoking, drinking), etc.

[0066] Feature extraction: Extract features related to health education from the collected data, such as age, gender, type of medical history, lifestyle habits, etc.

[0067] Model training: Use historical data to train a random forest model that can predict patients' health needs and education priorities.

[0068] Generate guidance plans: Input the patient's personal information into the model to obtain the prediction results of their health needs and education priorities. According to the prediction results, generate a personalized guidance plan for the patient, including suggestions such as a low-salt and low-fat diet, appropriate exercise, smoking cessation and alcohol restriction.

[0069] Dynamic adjustment: During the process of the patient receiving health education, monitor their health status and learning progress. It is found that the patient's blood pressure control is not ideal and their understanding of the low-salt and low-fat diet is not deep enough. Therefore, the platform uses the random forest model to re-evaluate the patient's health needs and education priorities, and adjusts the difficulty and depth of the education content, increasing the detailed explanation and examples of hypertension diet control.

[0085] In one embodiment, for the above-mentioned emergency rescue module, the emergency rescue module includes a data collection unit, an anomaly detection unit, an alarm trigger unit, a notification unit, a rescue process management unit, a peritoneal dialysis emergency guidance database, a guidance generation unit, and a guidance communication unit. The data collection unit is responsible for collecting real-time data from peritoneal dialysis machines, vital sign monitoring devices, and other sensors. The anomaly detection unit identifies anomaly patterns related to peritoneal dialysis. The alarm trigger unit makes an intelligent judgment and triggers an alarm based on the output of the anomaly detection unit or an emergency call signal. The notification unit ensures that emergency information is conveyed to relevant medical staff through text messages, phone calls, the hospital's internal communication system, etc. The rescue process management unit is specifically designed for the process management of peritoneal dialysis emergencies, including quickly dispatching medical resources, activating emergency response plans, recording event details, etc. The peritoneal dialysis emergency guidance database stores emergency treatment measures and steps in peritoneal dialysis emergencies. The guidance generation unit retrieves and generates personalized emergency guidance plans from the peritoneal dialysis emergency guidance database and the rescue process management unit according to the patient's specific situation and the type of emergency event. The guidance communication unit uses various methods such as voice prompts, screen displays, or wearable device prompts to ensure that emergency guidance measures are accurately conveyed to the patient. The guidance communication unit monitors the patient's operation process in real time and immediately corrects and reminds if it finds non-standard operations or risks.

[0086] For patients who need to undergo peritoneal dialysis, the robot will provide detailed operation guidance through video tutorials or virtual reality technology. When the patient is operating, the robot will monitor the patient's operation steps and techniques in real time. If it finds non-standard operations or risks (such as incorrect connection of pipelines, incomplete disinfection, etc.), it will immediately correct them through voice or visual prompts. If the situation is serious, the robot will immediately contact medical staff and initiate the emergency rescue process.

[0087] Suppose patient Mr. Wang suddenly shows abnormal vital signs such as a rapid heart rate and difficulty breathing. The ward health education robot will immediately detect these abnormal changes through sensors. The robot will automatically trigger the early warning mechanism and remind Mr. Wang through voice: "Your vital signs are abnormal. Please stay calm immediately and don't panic. We will immediately contact medical staff to come and handle it." At the same time, the robot will provide Mr. Wang with preliminary emergency guidance according to the preset emergency guidance measures, such as "Please try to lie flat as much as possible and don't move around casually, waiting for the medical staff to arrive."

[0088] In one embodiment, for the above-mentioned emotion analysis unit, the emotion analysis unit judges the patient's emotional state and evaluates its impact on peritoneal dialysis treatment. The specific steps are as follows:

[0089] Facial feature extraction: Using a convolutional neural network, extract emotion-related features from the facial recognition unit, such as the curvature of the eyebrows, the upward or downward turn of the corners of the mouth, etc.;

[0090] Physiological feature integration: Combine facial features with physiological indicators (such as heart rate variability, skin conductance, etc.) to provide a more comprehensive assessment of the emotional state. These physiological indicators can reflect the activity of the autonomic nervous system and are closely related to the emotional state;

[0091] Model application: Input the extracted features into a trained neural network. The model will judge the patient's emotional state (such as happy, sad, anxious, calm, etc.) based on the extracted features;

[0092] Emotional assessment: The model evaluates the intensity and duration of the emotional state, as well as the possible impact of this emotional state on peritoneal dialysis treatment. For example, an anxious emotion may cause the patient to not comply with the treatment plan or overly focus on physical symptoms;

[0093] Result output: The emotion analysis unit outputs the results of emotion classification and assessment to the communication strategy generation unit;

[0094] Feedback loop: According to the results of emotion analysis, the communication strategy generation unit adjusts the communication method with the patient, provides personalized psychological support or triggers an emergency rescue process. At the same time, continuously collect the patient's feedback and treatment effect data to continuously optimize the performance and accuracy of the emotion analysis model;

[0095] Suppose a peritoneal dialysis patient is undergoing dialysis treatment, and the facial camera captures changes in his facial expressions. After preprocessing and feature extraction, the emotion analysis unit finds that his eyebrows are furrowed, the corners of his mouth are drooping, and his heart rate is accelerating. Input these features into the model, and the model determines that the patient is in an anxious state and assesses the degree of his anxiety as moderate. The system then triggers an alarm mechanism to notify the medical staff to pay attention to the patient's situation and automatically play a soothing voice guidance to help the patient relax and reduce anxiety.

[0096] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, for those of ordinary skill in the art, it can be understood that various changes, modifications, substitutions, and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention. The scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
