[0002] Postoperative infection is one of the most common and highest-risk complications in clinical treatment, especially in large-scale surgical operations, elderly patients and immunocompromised populations. Infection prevention and control directly affects the recovery speed and medical quality. The existing postoperative infection monitoring mainly relies on laboratory test results and manual observation by medical staff. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a technical solution that can integrate multi-source heterogeneous data to achieve early intelligent identification, dynamic early warning and closed-loop intervention feedback of postoperative infection, in order to make up for the shortcomings of existing technologies in data correlation, intelligent decision-making and self-learning optimization.

[0012] Step S5, use task scheduling and intelligent recommendation mechanisms to allocate intervention actions and track execution effects;

[0013] Step S6, correct threshold values and model parameters based on actual infection outcomes.

[0014] Preferably, the step S1 includes the following sub-steps:

[0015] Step S101, collect patient's body temperature, heart rate, respiratory rate, wound infrared temperature, skin electric response and blood oxygen saturation data, output as patient's vital sign data set;

[0016] Step S102, collect dressing frequency, aseptic operation compliance record, touch event log and order execution time, output as nursing behavior data set;

[0024] Step S203: Perform a difference analysis between the physiological dynamic feature set and the individual baseline feature set. The analysis process includes first standardizing the two feature sets to eliminate unit differences and dimensional differences.

[0025] Mahalanobis distance is used to calculate the degree of deviation between patient feature data, output the feature deviation magnitude, and identify the feature group with significant deviation using hierarchical clustering.

[0026] By analyzing the deviation trends in different time periods using time series similarity metrics, we can extract the characteristics of abnormal persistence.

[0027] A postoperative deviation feature dataset is generated based on the magnitude and duration of the deviation.

[0034] By identifying nonlinear dependencies through mutual information analysis, a multidimensional coupled feature vector is formed, and a set of behavioral and physiological coupled features is output.

[0035] Step S302: The dynamic Bayesian inference method is used to perform time-series modeling of the behavioral and physiological coupling feature set. The hidden state nodes represent the patient's infection potential, and the visible state nodes correspond to nursing operations and physiological indicators. When a high touch event density and a wound temperature rise are detected to occur continuously within the same window, the model outputs the probability of potential infection abnormality.

[0036] When the probability of a potential infection exceeds a set threshold, it is marked as a potential infection event.

[0037] Step S303, construct the output layer of the behavioral-physiological coupling model:

[0038] In combination with the postoperative deviation feature dataset, the abnormal trend label dataset, and the potential infection abnormal event, a weighted fusion algorithm is used to calculate an infection risk impact factor, wherein the weight is dynamically adjusted by a feature importance learning model.

[0039] An infection risk score result is generated by normalized weighted summation, which is used to reflect the real-time coupling strength between physiological abnormalities and nursing behaviors.

[0043] Step S403, the infection risk score result and the environmental association risk factor set are integrated, a hierarchical weighted fusion method is used to perform multi-level risk judgment, and multi-level infection warning labels are divided according to the comprehensive score interval, including a first-level infection warning label, a second-level infection warning label, and a third-level infection warning label;

[0044] The multi-level infection warning labels are synchronized to the medical terminal through a data interface.

[0045] Preferably, the step S5 includes the following sub-steps:

[0046] Step S501, a high-risk patient is identified based on the multi-level infection warning label and an intervention task is generated, and the priority is sorted according to the label level, the infection risk score result, and the environmental association risk factor in the same ward;

[0047] The task is automatically assigned and the execution time limit and re-evaluation time point are generated in combination with the on-duty load and professional division of the nurse, wherein the on-duty load is estimated by a load index formed by the shift working hours, the current number of tasks in progress, the patient condition coefficient, and the walking distance, and the professional division is represented by the qualification label, the experience level, and the compliance score in the past three months;

[0048] Under the conditions of meeting the qualification matching, the maximum load threshold, and the cross-zone upper limit, a heuristic scheduling and linear programming hybrid solution is used to minimize the weighted overload and task delay, and an SLA task item is generated, including the person in charge, the time limit to bed, and the re-evaluation time point;

[0049] Step S502, combine the historical intervention effect database with the infection risk score result, and perform multi-objective scoring on the preset candidate intervention action, wherein the scoring dimensions of the multi-objective scoring include expected risk reduction amplitude, invasiveness to the patient, resource occupation, and execution accessibility;

[0050] The recommendation engine combining the rule template and the contextual multi-arm bandit selects the strategy combination with the best historical effect in the similar patient and similar risk situation adaptively, and outputs an intervention strategy suggestion set;

[0051] Step S503, record the response time delay of the medical staff to the intervention strategy suggestion set, the time to reach the bedside, the actual execution step, and the patient tolerance, collect the short-term changes of the signs and the test results after the execution;

[0052] The deviation reasons in the case where the execution is not according to the suggestion are recorded to form a response execution log data set, wherein the response execution log data set includes a time stamp, compliance degree, and immediate effect evaluation.

[0053] Preferably, the step S6 comprises the following sub-steps:

[0054] Step S601, collect the test results, sign changes, and infection outcome data of the patient after the intervention, and output an intervention feedback data set;

[0055] Step S602, compare the intervention feedback data set with the multi-level infection early warning label, and correct the infection risk score threshold and the weight parameter in combination with the response execution log data set;

[0056] Step S603, update the individual baseline model and the behavior-physiology coupled model according to the corrected weight parameter, and output a self-correcting parameter set.

[0057] Preferably, the step S303 further comprises an adaptive weight adjustment mechanism.

[0058] The adaptive weight adjustment mechanism adjusts the weight proportions of the body temperature, skin electric response, and touch event density in the infection risk score in real time according to the physiological fluctuation characteristic change trend of different postoperative periods, and increases the behavior class weight to a preset first percentage when the body temperature rise and the synchronous increase of the touch events are detected, wherein the first percentage is 60%-80%, and preferably 70%.

[0059] Preferably, the step S602 further performs a lag compensation process when correcting the infection risk score threshold.

[0060] The hysteresis compensation process corrects the risk threshold adjustment step by analyzing the time interval from policy issuance to sign improvement in the intervention execution log, automatically shortens the threshold update period to a preset second percentage when the intervention response of the last two times lags behind the risk increase event, wherein the second percentage is 50%-80% of the original threshold update period, preferably 67%.

Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments.

[0079] Step S4, fusing environmental factors and risk scores to generate hierarchical warning labels through spatial clustering and rule mining.

[0080] Step S5, using task scheduling and intelligent recommendation mechanism to allocate intervention actions and track the execution effect.

[0081] Step S6, correcting threshold values and model parameters based on actual infection outcomes.

[0082] The present application fuses multi-source data, establishes individualized dynamic baseline models and behavior-physiology coupling models, realizes intelligent identification and hierarchical early warning of postoperative infection risks, automatically corrects model parameters using self-learning and feedback mechanisms, forms a closed-loop process of monitoring, prediction, intervention and optimization, can identify infection signs in advance, reduces artificial dependence, improves the real-time and accuracy of postoperative infection prevention and control, and provides intelligent decision support for clinical practice.

[0083] Step S1 comprises the following sub-steps:

[0084] Step S101, collecting patient's body temperature, heart rate, respiratory rate, wound infrared temperature, skin electric response and blood oxygen saturation data, and outputting as a patient's sign data set.

[0085] Step S101 comprehensively reflects the patient's postoperative physiological state and potential stress response by collecting multiple vital signs data such as body temperature, heart rate, and respiratory rate in real time, forming a quantifiable physiological characteristic basis.

[0086] Step S102: Collect data on dressing change frequency, aseptic operation compliance records, touch event logs, and medical order execution time, and output them as a nursing behavior dataset.

[0087] The automatic detection of touch events and the collection and detection methods for aseptic operation compliance records are as follows:

[0088] Automatic touch event detection: Pressure and capacitive contact sensor pads are placed on the outer layer of the patient's wound dressing, or infrared and visible light depth cameras and area fences are set up at the bedside;

[0089] Healthcare workers wear RFID badges, wristbands, or gloves with IMUs. The sensor signals are synchronized with the ward's unified clock. A touch event is generated when a healthcare worker's identification is detected entering the bedside enclosure and the pressure of the dressing contact sensor exceeds a contact threshold and remains above a preset touch duration threshold. For cases of approach without contact, a proximity touch event is generated based on the minimum distance threshold of the distance sensor, and the confidence level is noted in the log. To reduce false alarms, patient movement signals (mattress pressure, wearable IMU) can be used for exclusion: if the patient's movement exceeds the movement threshold within the touch window and no operator identification is detected, the touch event is not counted.

[0090] Touch event log fields: The touch event log should include at least the event timestamp, patient identifier, operator identifier, bed and area identifier, touch type, touch duration, cumulative number of touches within the window, event confidence level, and sensor source. See the corresponding table below. Figure 3 .

[0091] Aseptic Procedure Compliance Record Collection: Aseptic procedure compliance records are used to quantify the execution of aseptic procedures by medical staff during dressing changes / medical dressing changes / invasive procedures. Data sources include: IoT counts and work badge association records of hand sanitizer dispensers, barcode or RFID opening and scanning records of sterile packs and dressing packs, glove box issuance records and replacement times, and operation step confirmation records from bedside terminals. These records are aggregated by operation task ID to form a compliance record for a single nursing task.

[0092] Aseptic technique compliance record fields should include at least the task ID, operator ID, patient ID, procedure type, key step completion marker, step timestamp, step interval duration, compliance score, and anomaly reason code. See the corresponding table below. Figure 4 .

[0093] Step S102 quantifies the operation intensity and infection exposure frequency in the nursing process by recording the behavior information such as dressing frequency, aseptic operation and touch events, and provides a basis for coupling analysis of behavior and infection risk.

[0094] Step S103 collects air temperature and humidity, microbial culture times, air particulate matter concentration and disinfection records, and outputs environmental monitoring data sets.

[0095] Step S103 identifies the influence of external infection transmission environment and air quality changes on patient recovery by collecting environmental parameters such as air temperature and humidity and microbial concentration.

[0096] Step S104, taking the ward information system control clock as the reference, synchronizes the time and unifies the space identification of the patient sign data set, the nursing behavior data set and the environmental monitoring data set, and forms the postoperative infection multi-source alignment data set.

[0097] Step S104 synchronizes the time and space identification of multiple types of data with a unified clock, eliminates the time offset caused by the difference between the collection sources, and ensures the corresponding accuracy and real-time relevance of each data dimension in subsequent model analysis.

[0098] Step S1 establishes a complete and traceable postoperative infection multi-source alignment data set through the synchronous collection and unified alignment of multi-source data, realizes the spatio-temporal consistency of physiological, nursing and environmental information, and provides a reliable data foundation for subsequent individualized modeling and infection risk identification.

[0099] Step S2 includes the following sub-steps:

[0100] Step S201, based on the postoperative infection multi-source alignment data set, analyzes the temperature fluctuation amplitude, respiratory rate change rate and skin electric reaction trend in the patient sign data set, and extracts a set of physiological dynamic features.

[0101] Step S201 extracts key features that can reflect the physiological dynamic changes of the patient by analyzing the temperature fluctuation, respiratory rate change rate and skin electric reaction trend, and establishes a basic feature space for anomaly detection.

[0102] Step S202, based on the preoperative health record and the same period rehabilitation patient data, establishes an individual baseline model, and the process includes using principal component analysis to reduce the dimensionality of preoperative data, extracting body temperature stability, heart rate fluctuation rate and immune index distribution, and outputting patient feature data.

[0103] The K-means clustering algorithm is used to group the same period rehabilitation patient data, and the normal recovery mode distribution interval is determined.

[0104] Mapping the patient's sign data set to the normal recovery mode distribution interval, generating an individual reference curve, and forming an individual baseline model through support vector regression training, outputting an individual baseline feature set.

[0105] The sample construction, feature vector, and parameter selection method for support vector regression training are as follows:

[0106] Training sample construction: Based on the postoperative infection multi-source alignment data of each patient, time window samples are generated at a fixed time granularity Δt, which can be 1 minute, 5 minutes, or 10 minutes, preferably 10 minutes. For each time window k, an input feature vector Xk is constructed and a prediction target Yk is constructed. The Yk is used to fit the expected value or trend item of the key physiological indicators of the individual reference curve, preferably the expected value of the wound infrared temperature, the expected value of the body temperature, or the trend slope of the wound temperature within the future H time span (H can be 3-6 hours).

[0107] Input feature vector Xk: at least includes:

[0108] Physiological dynamic features: mean body temperature, body temperature slope, mean heart rate, heart rate standard deviation, respiratory rate change rate, mean blood oxygen saturation, mean and slope of wound infrared temperature, mean and rising rate of skin electrical response;

[0109] Nursing behavior features: dressing change flag, touch event density (number of touches within the window), sterile operation compliance score, order execution delay;

[0110] Static profile features: age, BMI, underlying disease label, surgery type and surgery duration, etc.

[0111] Each feature is subjected to missing value filling and standardization before entering the model, and is indexed with patient identification and time stamp.

[0112] Each sample is represented as a structured record of patient identification, time window start and end, feature vector, and target value. Example: for 300 patients' postoperative 72-hour monitoring data, windowing at Δt=10 minutes can obtain about 300x(72x6)=129600 time window samples, of which infection-positive patients are used to construct abnormal situation samples, and recovered patients are used to construct normal baseline samples. The above sample size is an example, and the actual hospital data size can be adjusted.

[0113] The kernel function of SVR can be radial basis function (RBF) or polynomial kernel function, and RBF kernel is preferred to process the nonlinear recovery curve. The key parameters include penalty coefficient C, kernel width parameter γ, and insensitive interval ε. The parameter selection method is: using grid search or Bayesian optimization on the training set, and using K-fold cross-validation (K can be 5 or 10) to minimize the mean absolute error MAE or mean square error MSE of the validation set; the example value range is: C∈[1,100], γ∈[10^-4,10^-1], ε∈[0.01,0.2]. When the verification error converges, the optimal parameter group is taken as the individual baseline model parameter.

[0114] After obtaining the new intervention feedback data set in step S6, the new samples can be incorporated into the training set in a "daily" cycle, and the SVR model parameters are retrained or incrementally updated to adapt to the seasonal environmental changes and patient composition changes in the ward.

[0115] Step S202 establishes an individual baseline model through principal component analysis, clustering, and regression modeling, realizes individualized comparison of postoperative signs and normal recovery mode, and ensures that the model can accurately reflect individual differences and postoperative recovery state.

[0116] Step S203, difference analysis is performed on the physiological dynamic feature set and the individual baseline feature set. The analysis process includes first standardizing the two feature sets to eliminate unit differences and dimensional differences.

[0117] The Mahalanobis distance is used to calculate the deviation degree between the feature data of the patients, and the feature deviation amplitude is output, and the hierarchical clustering method is used to identify the feature groups that deviate significantly.

[0118] The deviation trend of different time periods is analyzed by time series similarity measurement, and the abnormal persistence feature is extracted.

[0119] The postoperative deviation feature data set is generated according to the feature deviation amplitude and the duration.

[0120] Step S203 calculates the sign deviation degree and feature group difference through Mahalanobis distance and hierarchical clustering, identifies the persistent abnormal change by combining time series similarity analysis, forms a quantitative postoperative deviation feature data set, and is used to identify potential infection risk signals.

[0121] In the difference analysis process, the sign fluctuation period and the abnormal duration are captured through the sliding window mechanism, the potential abnormal waveband is identified, and the abnormal trend label data set is generated.

[0122] Step S204 tracks the sign fluctuation period through the sliding window mechanism, identifies the abnormal duration interval, and generates the abnormal trend label data set, realizes continuous monitoring and early abnormal marking of the patient state change.

[0123] Step S2 realizes dynamic quantification and abnormal identification of the physiological state of the patient by constructing an individualized baseline model and performing difference analysis on postoperative sign changes, forming a feature data set that can reflect the deviation degree of individual recovery, and providing accurate input for subsequent infection risk prediction.

[0124] Step S3 includes the following sub-steps:

[0125] Step S301, establish the input layer of the behavior-physiology coupling model:

[0126] Establish the coupling mapping matrix of the nursing behavior data set and the patient sign data set:

[0127] Synchronize the time series of the nursing behavior data set and the patient sign data set, and use the correlation coefficient matrix to calculate the coupling strength between the dressing change frequency, the sterile operation compliance rate, the touch event density, and the wound temperature, and the skin electric reaction.

[0128] Identify the nonlinear dependence relationship through mutual information analysis, form a multi-dimensional coupling feature vector, and output the behavior-physiology coupling feature set.

[0129] Step S301 calculates the correlation and nonlinear relationship between the dressing change frequency, the sterile operation compliance rate, the touch event density, and the wound temperature, and the skin electric reaction by constructing the coupling mapping matrix of the nursing behavior and sign data, extracts the coupling feature set reflecting the interaction between behavior and physiology, and provides multi-dimensional feature input for abnormal identification.

[0130] Step S302, construct the time series inference layer of the behavior-physiology coupling model:

[0131] Use dynamic Bayesian inference method to model the behavior-physiology coupling feature set in time series, represent the patient's infection potential through hidden state nodes, and correspond nursing operation and physiological indicators through visible state nodes. When high touch event density and rising wound temperature are detected to appear continuously in the same window, the model outputs the abnormal probability of potential infection.

[0132] The definition of hidden state and visible state of dynamic Bayesian inference, state transition matrix initialization and learning method are as follows:

[0133] Visible state (observation variable) Ot: The behavior-physiology coupling feature set output by step S301, at least including touch event density, sterile operation compliance score, dressing change frequency, wound infrared temperature slope, body temperature slope, skin electric reaction rising rate, and postoperative deviation feature amplitude, etc.; for continuous variables, they can be discretized into low, medium and high levels according to quantile points or clinical thresholds to meet the needs of discrete dynamic Bayesian network modeling, or they can be kept as continuous variables and use Gaussian emission model.

[0134] Hidden state (latent variable) St: used to represent the patient's infection potential, preferably set to three states: S0 = normal recovery, S1 = suspicious infection, S2 = high-risk infection; when higher resolution is needed, it can be extended to continuous potential values and implemented with particle filtering to infer. The model output of the latent infection anomaly probability is defined as P(St=S2|O1:t).

[0135] State transition probability matrix A initialization: uniform initialization or clinical prior initialization can be used. Example clinical prior: the probability of a patient remaining in the original state within adjacent time windows is high, and the probability of jumping to adjacent risk levels is low, set to A=[[0.90,0.10,0.00],[0.05,0.90,0.05],[0.00,0.10,0.90]]; where the matrix elements can be initially estimated according to the historical data frequency.

[0136] Parameter learning: when there is an infection outcome label (such as blood culture positive, imaging evidence or clinical diagnosis conclusion), the Expectation Maximization (EM) or Forward-Backward algorithm (Baum-Welch) is used to learn the maximum likelihood of the A matrix and the emission distribution parameters; when there is no explicit label, a small amount of labeled samples and a large amount of unlabeled samples are jointly trained in a semi-supervised manner, and the parameters are updated through the feedback backfilling of step S6.

[0137] Inference and alarm: after performing forward recursion to calculate the posterior probability for each time window, when P(St=S2|O1:t) continuously exceeds the infection anomaly threshold (the threshold can be 0.6-0.8, preferably 0.7) and lasts for more than a duration threshold (such as 30-60 minutes), it is marked as a potential infection anomaly event and enters step S303 for fusion scoring.

[0138] When the latent infection anomaly probability exceeds the set threshold, it is marked as a potential infection anomaly event.

[0139] Step S302 uses dynamic Bayesian inference to model the time series of the coupled feature set, quantifies the infection potential in the form of hidden states, and outputs the latent infection anomaly probability when a high-frequency contact and temperature rise linkage pattern occurs, achieving intelligent identification and labeling of early infection trends.

[0140] Step S303, construct the output layer of the behavior-physiology coupling model:

[0141] Combine the postoperative deviation feature dataset, anomaly trend label dataset, and potential infection anomaly event to calculate the infection risk impact factor using a weighted fusion algorithm, where the weights are dynamically adjusted by the feature importance learning model.

[0142] Generate the infection risk score result by normalized weighted summation, which is used to reflect the real-time coupling strength between physiological abnormalities and nursing behaviors.

[0143] Step S303 combines the deviation feature data, abnormal trend and potential infection event by weighting, dynamically adjusts the weight through the feature importance learning model, generates an infection risk score result reflecting the real-time correlation strength of behavior and physiology, and realizes quantitative evaluation and trend prediction of infection risk.

[0144] Step S303 further includes an adaptive weight adjustment mechanism.

[0145] The adaptive weight adjustment mechanism adjusts the weight proportion of body temperature, skin electric response and touch event density in the infection risk score in real time according to the physiological fluctuation feature change trend of different postoperative periods, and increases the behavior class weight to a preset first percentage when detecting that the body temperature rises and the touch event increases synchronously, wherein the first percentage is 60%-80%, preferably 70%.

[0146] The determination method of the first percentage is as follows: before going online, a training set and a validation set are constructed by historical samples or simulation samples, candidate values: 60%, 65%, 70%, 75%, 80% are traversed, early warning lead time, false positive rate and intervention execution load are calculated respectively, and the candidate value with the optimal comprehensive score is taken as the first percentage; when lacking historical samples, the first percentage is defaulted to 70%, and is updated monthly after feedback in step S6.

[0147] The adaptive weight adjustment mechanism dynamically adjusts the weight proportion of body temperature, skin electric response and touch event density in the risk score according to the physiological fluctuation feature change trend of different postoperative periods, so that the model is more sensitive to key risk factors at different stages, and the accuracy and sensitivity of early infection identification are improved.

[0148] Step S3 realizes quantitative analysis of the causal correlation between nursing operation and physiological abnormality by establishing a coupling model of nursing behavior and patient physiological state, can identify potential infection signals in real time and generate an infection risk score, and provides accurate basis for subsequent risk grading and intervention decision.

[0149] Step S4 includes the following substeps:

[0150] Step S401 time and space correlates the infection risk score result with the environmental monitoring data set, identifies high-risk areas using the DBSCAN algorithm, matches the environmental sensor data with the patient bed coordinates, and constructs a risk correlation matrix.

[0151] Step S401 time and space correlates the infection risk score result with the environmental monitoring data set, identifies high-risk areas using the DBSCAN algorithm, matches the environmental sensor data with the patient bed coordinates, and constructs a risk correlation matrix.

[0152] Step S402, using Apriori association rule mining algorithm in the risk association matrix to identify frequent co-occurrence patterns of air quality decline, disinfection delay and infection events in the same ward, and to screen significant relationships through support and confidence thresholds, and output the environmental associated risk factor set.

[0153] Step S402, using Apriori association rule mining algorithm to find frequent co-occurrence patterns between air quality decline, disinfection delay and infection events from the risk association matrix, and to screen significant associated factors according to support and confidence, and generate the environmental associated risk factor set, which is used to identify the potential driving effect of external environment on infection transmission.

[0154] Step S403, integrating the infection risk score results and the environmental associated risk factor set, using hierarchical weighted fusion method to perform multi-level risk judgment, and dividing multi-level infection warning labels according to the comprehensive score interval, including first-level, second-level and third-level infection warning labels.

[0155] The multi-level infection warning labels are synchronized to the medical terminal through the data interface.

[0156] Step S403 integrates the infection risk score and the environmental associated risk factor, uses hierarchical weighted fusion method for multi-level risk judgment, divides the comprehensive score into first, second and third warning labels, realizes the hierarchical expression of infection risk intensity, and synchronizes to the medical terminal in real time through the data interface, which is used to guide the hierarchical response and prevention and control decision.

[0157] Step S4, by spatial and temporal correlation analysis of infection risk score and environmental monitoring data, realizing the comprehensive evaluation of patient individual infection risk and ward environmental factors, establishing a multi-level infection warning mechanism, so as to find the environmental driven infection aggregation trend in the early stage and send hierarchical warning signals to the medical terminal.

[0158] Step S5 includes the following sub-steps:

[0159] Step S501, identifying high-risk patients based on multi-level infection warning labels and generating intervention tasks, prioritizing by label level, infection risk score results and environmental associated risk factors in the same ward.

[0160] The tasks are automatically assigned according to the on-duty load and professional division, and the execution time limit and re-evaluation time point are generated, wherein the on-duty load is estimated by the load index formed by the shift working hours, the number of current tasks, the patient condition coefficient and the walking distance, and the professional division is represented by the qualification label, the experience level and the compliance score in the past three months.

[0161] In the case of meeting the qualification matching, the maximum load threshold and the cross-zone upper limit, a heuristic scheduling and linear programming hybrid solution is adopted to minimize the weighted overload and task delay, and SLA task entries are generated, which include the responsible person, the to-bed time limit and the re-evaluation time point.

[0162] Step S501 intelligently identifies high-risk patients and assigns intervention tasks by analyzing multi-level infection early warning labels, risk scores and environmental factors. Combined with the nurse load index and professional division, the heuristic scheduling and linear programming algorithm is used to optimize task allocation, realize automatic scheduling and rational division of tasks, and generate SLA task entries containing the responsible person, the to-bed time limit and the re-evaluation time point, to ensure the timeliness and balance of intervention execution.

[0163] Step S502, combined with the historical intervention effect database and the infection risk score result, multi-objective scoring is performed on the pre-set candidate intervention actions, and the scoring dimensions of multi-objective scoring include the expected risk reduction amplitude, the invasiveness to patients, the resource occupation and the execution accessibility.

[0164] A recommendation engine combining rule templates and contextual multi-armed bandit is used to adaptively select the strategy combination with the best historical effect in similar patients and similar risk situations, and output the intervention strategy suggestion set.

[0165] Step S502 integrates historical intervention effects and current risk scores to perform multi-objective scoring and dynamic recommendation on different candidate intervention actions, and intelligently selects the optimal intervention strategy combination using rule templates and contextual multi-armed bandit algorithm, to realize individualized, data-driven intervention decisions for different patient states.

[0166] Step S503 records the response time delay of medical staff to the intervention strategy suggestion set, the arrival time at the bedside, the actual execution steps and the patient's tolerance, and collects the short-term changes of signs and test results after execution.

[0167] The deviation reasons for not executing according to the suggestions are recorded, and a response execution log data set is formed, which includes timestamp, compliance degree and immediate effect evaluation.

[0168] Step S503 real-time tracks the execution process of medical staff, records the response time delay, execution steps and patient physiological feedback, and generates a response execution log data set containing timestamp, compliance degree and effect evaluation, to provide high-quality feedback data support for subsequent model optimization and clinical intervention effect verification.

[0169] Step S5 realizes rapid response and optimal resource scheduling after postoperative infection warning through automatic allocation of intervention tasks for high-risk patients and intelligent strategy recommendation, forms a traceable and evaluable intervention execution closed loop, and improves the response efficiency and intervention accuracy of medical staff.

[0170] Step S6 includes the following sub-steps:

[0171] Step S601, collect the test results, sign changes and infection outcome data of the patient after the intervention, and output the intervention feedback data set.

[0172] Step S601 forms an intervention feedback data set by collecting the test results, sign changes and final infection outcome data of the patient after the intervention, realizes the quantitative closed-loop tracking from the intervention behavior to the clinical results, and provides a true label basis for model correction.

[0173] Step S602 compares the intervention feedback data set with the multi-level infection warning label, and corrects the infection risk score threshold and weight parameter in combination with the response execution log data set.

[0174] Step S602 further performs a lag compensation process when correcting the infection risk score threshold.

[0175] The lag compensation process corrects the risk threshold adjustment step by analyzing the time interval from policy issuance to sign improvement in the intervention execution log. When the response of the intervention lags behind the risk rising event for two consecutive times, the threshold update period is automatically shortened to a preset second percentage, wherein the second percentage is 50%-80% of the original threshold update period, preferably 67%.

[0176] The determination method of the second percentage is as follows: the time interval distribution from policy issuance to sign improvement is counted, and the upper quartile or the mean plus one standard deviation is taken as the response lag threshold; when the threshold is exceeded for two consecutive times, the threshold update period is shortened by the second percentage. The second percentage can be discretely searched in the range of 50%-80%, preferably 67%, to reduce false negatives while controlling the fluctuations caused by frequent threshold updates.

[0177] Step S602 compares the intervention feedback data with the multi-level warning label and the response log, analyzes the deviation between the model prediction and the actual result, dynamically corrects the infection risk score threshold and the weight parameter, and adjusts the threshold step according to the time difference between policy execution and sign improvement through the lag compensation process, realizing the adaptive correction of the model to the delayed clinical response.

[0178] Step S603 updates the individual baseline model and the behavior-physiology coupled model according to the corrected weight parameter, and outputs the self-corrected parameter set.

[0179] Step S603 re-trains and corrects the parameters of the individual baseline model and the behavior-physiology coupled model according to the updated weight parameter, and outputs the self-corrected parameter set, so that the system realizes self-optimization of model performance and improvement of cross-batch generalization ability in continuous operation.

[0180] Step S6 corrects by comparing the post-intervention feedback data with the model output, realizes self-learning and continuous optimization of the system, enables the infection risk prediction model to dynamically adapt to clinical changes, continuously improves the early warning accuracy and response timeliness, and constructs a data-driven intelligent closed-loop optimization mechanism.

The sign data is collected with a sampling granularity of 1 minute and is subjected to outlier elimination before entering the system; the nursing behavior data comes from the bedside terminal and the sensing log; the environmental monitoring data comes from the temperature and humidity and particulate matter sensors and the disinfection records.
