China News Service, Guangzhou, July 3 (Reporter Minjie Cai) The Guangzhou Institute of Respiratory Health announced on the 2nd that the intelligent throat swab robot can meet the needs of large-scale nucleic acid collection.
Throat swabs are currently the most important sampling method for diagnosing new coronavirus infections. During the operation of the throat swab, medical staff must be in close contact with the patient. The patient's coughing and hard breathing can produce a large amount of droplets or aerosols, which has a higher risk of cross-infection. Moreover, in the process of collecting throat swabs, due to differences in the level of medical staff and irregularities in the collection of throat swabs, the quality of the swabs varies and false negatives are prone to occur.
During the new crown pneumonia epidemic last year, the research and development of the first-generation intelligent throat swab sampling robot system jointly initiated by the team of Zhong Nanshan, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, and the Shenyang Institute of Automation, Chinese Academy of Sciences, was completed. This year, we will continue to launch the second-generation intelligent throat swab robot "Lingcai No. 2". According to the Guangzhou Respiratory Health Research Institute, the second-generation robot has passed the actual combat test and can meet the needs of large-scale collection.
According to reports, the second-generation intelligent pharyngeal swab collection robot is oriented to the needs of intelligent large-scale collection, and has the characteristics of realizing remote semi-automatic operation and reducing the risk of doctor-patient crossing. At the same time, the robot collection can control the swab collection force and position, unify the quality of the collection, and reduce the adverse reactions of the collected person through a smaller collection force and an optimal collection trajectory.
According to the information released by the Guangzhou Respiratory Health Research Institute, on June 30 this year, "Lingcai No. 2" was used in the large-scale nucleic acid collection of the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University. The operation process is standardized, safe, convenient, and comfortable. The sampling time is very good, and the sampling time is fast.
