Solution Overview

Problem

Emergency dispatchers lack the necessary professional knowledge to effectively guide help-seekers in providing on-site CPR for OHCA patients, leading to low implementation and success rates of telecommunicator CPR, and there is a need for systems to accurately determine the on-site situation of the person to be rescued and the progress of the help-seeker in rescuing them.

Innovation Solution

A system that includes a first reference group acquisition module, classification test module, receiver operating characteristic curve acquisition module, candidate question semantic meaning acquisition module, and target question semantic meaning acquisition module to help operators and investigators determine the on-site situation and progress of rescuing a person by structuring historical dialogues using entity attribute clusters and pairs, setting cut-off points, and calculating classification sensitivities and specificities.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If dispatchers without rich emergency professional knowledge attempt to guide help-seekers to provide on-site CPR, then telecommunicator CPR can be implemented, but the implementation rate and success rate are low

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedispatcher capability to guide CPRVSAvoidimplementation rate and success rate of telecommunicator CPR
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The patent introduces an intelligent question recommendation system as an intermediary between the dispatcher and the help-seeker. The system analyzes historical dialogue data, extracts entity attribute clusters and pairs, and recommends standardized questions to dispatchers in real-time. This mediator compensates for the dispatcher's lack of professional knowledge by providing evidence-based questioning guidance, thereby improving both the adaptability of dispatchers and the reliability of CPR guidance outcomes

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Solution Approach 2:

The system implements feedback mechanisms by continuously analyzing dialogue outcomes and updating the recommendation model. Classification sensitivity and specificity metrics are calculated to evaluate the effectiveness of recommended questions. This feedback loop enables the system to learn from actual rescue scenarios and improve its questioning strategy over time, enhancing both dispatcher capability and rescue success rate

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

2Reliability

If more professional knowledge is required for dispatchers to effectively guide CPR, then the quality of guidance improves, but the complexity of operation increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvequality of CPR guidanceVSAvoidoperational complexity for dispatchers
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The system enables self-service by automatically analyzing dialogue content and generating question recommendations without requiring dispatchers to possess deep medical knowledge. The intelligent system serves itself by extracting patterns from historical data and autonomously providing guidance strategies. This eliminates the need for extensive professional training while maintaining high guidance quality, thus improving ease of operation without sacrificing reliability

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The system performs preliminary actions by pre-processing historical dialogue data to extract entity attribute clusters and pairs before actual rescue operations. Standardized questions are prepared in advance based on classification models. When a rescue scenario occurs, the dispatcher simply follows pre-prepared recommendations rather than making complex decisions in real-time, reducing operational complexity while ensuring high guidance quality

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

3Measurement precision

If historical dialogue data is structured using entity attribute clusters and pairs, then the effectiveness of dialogues can be accurately evaluated, but the device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveaccuracy of dialogue effectiveness evaluationVSAvoidsystem complexity for data structuring
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies segmentation by breaking down historical dialogue data into discrete entity attribute clusters and pairs. Each cluster represents a specific topic (e.g., patient condition, rescue actions) and contains relevant attribute pairs. This segmentation enables precise measurement of dialogue effectiveness by evaluating specific segments rather than analyzing entire dialogues as monolithic units, achieving high measurement precision while managing system complexity through modular organization

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The entity attribute cluster and pair structure serves multiple functions: it organizes historical data, enables classification testing, generates question recommendations, and evaluates dialogue effectiveness. This universal data structure handles diverse rescue scenarios and dialogue types through a unified framework, achieving accurate measurement across different contexts without proportionally increasing system complexity

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)
