The distinguished award celebrates the hospital\u2019s achievement in integrating Huawei\u2019s 5G+Cloud+AI COVID-19 diagnosis solution into the hospital\u2019s operations to enhance the efficiency of coronavirus diagnosis and treatment throughout the pandemic. The solution significantly helped the medical staff shorten the wait time of COVID-19 results while providing a high-speed connection with low latency during remote operations, thanks to the fifth-generation network. The cloud-based system also improved patients\u2019 data collection and resource allocation. Huawei\u2019s tailor-made solutions have proven effective in reducing medical personnel’s workload and helping the country better control the pandemic.<\/p>\n

The award celebrates a fruitful partnership between Siriraj Hospital and Huawei Thailand, under the \u201cBuilding a Secure, Reliable and Smart 5G Hospital in Thailand\u201d project, resulting in a revolutionary COVID-19 diagnosis and treatment solution leveraging on the power of 5G, Cloud, and AI technology.<\/p>\n

The award also recognizes the success of the \u201c5G unmanned medicine delivery vehicle\u201d pilot project, developed by Huawei in collaboration with the National Broadcasting and Telecommunications Commission (NBTC) and the Faculty of Medicine Siriraj Hospital. \u00a0The 5G driverless vehicle aims to reduce personnel contact, minimize infection risks, and improve drug delivery efficiency in the new medical era.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am deeply honored to receive this award on behalf of the hospital. At Siriraj, we always look for ways to improve the efficiency of medical services and operations,\u201d<\/em> said Prof. Dr. Prasit Watanapa during his acceptance speech. \u201cI would like to thank Huawei for its continuous support in helping us realize our vision for a 5G smart hospital. We will continue to jointly explore new opportunities in the 5G healthcare field. Together we will bring reliable and efficient medical services to the Thai people,\u201d<\/em> he added.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is a proud moment for the Hospital, and we are delighted to have contributed to this honor,\u201d<\/em> said Huawei Thailand CEO Mr. Abel Deng. \u201cIt is Huawei\u2019s mission to accompany Thailand as it develops a strong, connected healthcare ecosystem through 5G and other advanced technologies and solutions,\u201d<\/em> he concluded.<\/p>\n
