Design a learning-oriented fall event reporting system based on Kirkpatrick model.
Patient fall has been a severe problem in healthcare facilities around the world due to its prevalence and cost. Routine fall prevention training programs are not as effective as expected. Using event reporting systems is the trend for reducing patient safety events such as falls, although some limitations of the systems exist at current stage. The authors of this paper summarized these limitations through literature review, and developed an improved web-based fall event reporting system.

A novel web-based depth video rewind approach toward fall preventive interventions in hospitals.
The purpose of this study was to implement a web-based application to provide the ability to rewind and review depth videos captured in hospital rooms to investigate the event chains that led to patient’s fall at a specific time. It proposes a novel web application to ease the process of search and review of the videos by means of new visualization techniques to highlight video frames that contain potential risk of fall based on our previous research.
