    <pub:abstract><![CDATA[We describe a prototype Context Aware Perioperative
Information System to capture and interpret data in an
operating room of the future. The captured data is used to
construct the context of the surgical procedure and detect
medically significant events. Such events, and other state
information, are used to automatically construct an
Electronic edical Encounter Record (EMR).  The EMR records
and correlates significant medical data and video streams
with an inferred higher-level event model of the surgery.
Information from sensors such as Radio Frequency
Identification (RFID) tags provides basic context
information including the presence of medical staff,
devices, instruments and medication in the operating room
(OR). Patient monitoring systems and sensors such as pulse
oximeters and anesthesia machines provide continuous streams
of physiological data.  These low level data streams are
processed to generate higher-level primitive events, such as
a nurse entering the OR.  A hierarchical knowledge-based
event detection system correlates primitive events, patient
data and workflow data to infer high-level events, such as
the onset of anesthesia. The resulting EMR provides medical
staff with a permanent record of the surgery that can be
used for subsequent evaluation and training. The system can
also be used to detect potentially significant errors. It
seeks to automate some of the tasks done by nursing staff
today that detracts from their ability to attend to the
patient.
