ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Peter van Manen - Electronic systems expert
Peter van Manen is the Managing Director of McLaren Electronics, which provides data systems to major motorsports series.

Why you should listen

To say that Peter van Manen has a high-speed job would be an understatement. As Managing Director of McLaren Electronics, which provides electronics and data collection software to motorsports events, he and his team work in real time during a race to improve cars on about 500 different parameters. That's about 750 million data points in two hours.

But recently van Manen and his team have been wondering: Why can't the extremely precise and subtle data-collection and analysis systems used in motorsports be applied elsewhere, for the benefit of all? They have applied their systems to ICU units at Birmingham Children's Hospital with real-time analysis that allows them to proactively prevent cardiac arrests. The unit has seen a 25 percent decrease in life-threatening events. And it's just the beginning.

Motor發動機 racing賽跑 is a funny滑稽 old business商業.
0
336
2257
賽車是個有趣的老行業
00:14
We make a new car汽車 every一切 year,
1
2593
2317
每年我們都會造一部新車
00:16
and then we spend the rest休息 of the season季節
2
4910
2188
而當季的其他時間
00:19
trying to understand理解 what it is we've我們已經 built內置
3
7098
2776
就用來了解我們達成了那些
00:21
to make it better, to make it faster更快.
4
9874
3221
然後想辦法突破、讓車子能跑得更快
00:25
And then the next下一個 year, we start開始 again.
5
13095
3275
下一年,重新開始
00:28
Now, the car汽車 you see in front面前 of you is quite相當 complicated複雜.
6
16370
4238
大家眼前的這部車結構相當複雜
00:32
The chassis機殼 is made製作 up of about 11,000 components組件,
7
20608
3619
車子底盤大約由一萬一千組零件所構成
00:36
the engine發動機 another另一個 6,000,
8
24227
2468
引擎則使用了六千組零件
00:38
the electronics電子產品 about eight and a half thousand.
9
26695
3093
電子設備將近八千五百組零件
00:41
So there's about 25,000 things there that can go wrong錯誤.
10
29788
4401
所以總共約有兩萬五千組零件可能出錯
00:46
So motor發動機 racing賽跑 is very much about attention注意 to detail詳情.
11
34189
4826
因此賽車是非常重視細節的
00:51
The other thing about Formula 1 in particular特定
12
39015
3263
尤其是一級方程式賽車
00:54
is we're always changing改變 the car汽車.
13
42278
2124
我們不斷地改車
00:56
We're always trying to make it faster更快.
14
44402
2280
總想盡辦法讓它能跑得更快
00:58
So every一切 two weeks, we will be making製造
15
46682
2984
所以每兩週,我們就會製造
01:01
about 5,000 new components組件 to fit適合 to the car汽車.
16
49666
4200
大約五千組新零件來組裝
01:05
Five to 10 percent百分 of the race種族 car汽車
17
53866
2178
該年度會有 5% 到 10% 的賽車
01:08
will be different不同 every一切 two weeks of the year.
18
56044
3752
每兩週就會改頭換面一次
01:11
So how do we do that?
19
59796
2309
我們是如何辦到的呢?
01:14
Well, we start開始 our life with the racing賽跑 car汽車.
20
62105
3744
嗯,我們的生活是從賽車開始的
01:17
We have a lot of sensors傳感器 on the car汽車 to measure測量 things.
21
65849
3991
我們在車子裡安裝了許多感應器來監測車況
01:21
On the race種族 car汽車 in front面前 of you here
22
69840
1882
你們眼前的這部賽車
01:23
there are about 120 sensors傳感器 when it goes into a race種族.
23
71722
3159
比賽時裝了約一百廿個感應器
01:26
It's measuring測量 all sorts排序 of things around the car汽車.
24
74881
3652
來測量整部車的車況
01:30
That data數據 is logged記錄. We're logging記錄 about
25
78533
2052
資料會被記錄下來,我們在資料系統裡
01:32
500 different不同 parameters參數 within the data數據 systems系統,
26
80585
3704
記錄了大約五百種不同的參數
01:36
about 13,000 health健康 parameters參數 and events事件
27
84289
3665
大約一萬三千個健康參數和事件
01:39
to say when things are not working加工 the way they should do,
28
87954
4565
車子出狀況時,這些紀錄能派上用場
我們利用遙測技術
01:44
and we're sending發出 that data數據 back to the garage車庫
29
92519
2825
以每秒 2-4 兆位元的速率
將資料傳回修車廠
01:47
using運用 telemetry遙測 at a rate of two to four megabits兆位 per second第二.
30
95344
4979
所以一場兩小時的比賽中
每部車會傳送出
01:52
So during a two-hour兩小時 race種族, each car汽車 will be sending發出
31
100323
3127
01:55
750 million百萬 numbers數字.
32
103450
2275
七億五千萬個數字
01:57
That's twice兩次 as many許多 numbers數字 as words that each of us
33
105725
3143
這是我們每個人一輩子
說話用字的兩倍之多
02:00
speaks說話 in a lifetime一生.
34
108868
1631
02:02
It's a huge巨大 amount of data數據.
35
110499
2618
這是很龐大的資料
02:05
But it's not enough足夠 just to have data數據 and measure測量 it.
36
113117
2645
但是光有資料或能測量資料是不夠的
02:07
You need to be able能夠 to do something with it.
37
115762
2158
還必須要懂得如何運用這些資料
02:09
So we've我們已經 spent花費 a lot of time and effort功夫
38
117920
2394
所以我們花了很多時間和精力
02:12
in turning車削 the data數據 into stories故事
39
120314
1869
把數據轉換成故事
02:14
to be able能夠 to tell, what's the state of the engine發動機,
40
122183
3105
可以解讀引擎的狀況如何、
02:17
how are the tires輪胎 degrading降解,
41
125288
2272
輪胎的耗損情形、
02:19
what's the situation情況 with fuel汽油 consumption消費?
42
127560
3748
車子油耗又是如何?
02:23
So all of this is taking服用 data數據
43
131308
2788
所以這些就是紀錄資料
02:26
and turning車削 it into knowledge知識 that we can act法案 upon.
44
134096
3802
並將其轉換為
我們能採取行動的知識
02:29
Okay, so let's have a look at a little bit of data數據.
45
137898
2638
好,讓我們來看看一點點資料
02:32
Let's pick a bit of data數據 from
46
140536
2030
這些資料取自於
02:34
another另一個 three-month-old三個月大的 patient患者.
47
142566
3079
一個三個月大的病童
02:37
This is a child兒童, and what you're seeing眼看 here is real真實 data數據,
48
145645
4171
他是個小孩子,大家現在看到的是真實數據
02:41
and on the far right-hand右手 side,
49
149816
1977
在最右手邊
02:43
where everything starts啟動 getting得到 a little bit catastrophic災難性的,
50
151793
2587
可以看到情況開始變的有點糟糕
02:46
that is the patient患者 going into cardiac心臟的 arrest逮捕.
51
154380
3584
這病患的心搏漸漸停止
02:49
It was deemed認為 to be an unpredictable不可預料的 event事件.
52
157964
3232
這是出乎預料的事情
02:53
This was a heart attack攻擊 that no one could see coming未來.
53
161196
3789
沒人料想到會心臟病發
02:56
But when we look at the information信息 there,
54
164985
2550
但是當我們檢查這些資訊時
02:59
we can see that things are starting開始 to become成為
55
167535
2349
我們可以發現,大約在心搏停止前五分鐘
03:01
a little fuzzy模糊 about five minutes分鐘 or so before the cardiac心臟的 arrest逮捕.
56
169884
4029
數據開始變得有點模糊不清
03:05
We can see small changes變化
57
173913
2037
我們可以看到如心搏速率等
03:07
in things like the heart rate moving移動.
58
175950
2383
有些微的變化
03:10
These were all undetected未被發現 by normal正常 thresholds閾值
59
178333
2486
這些原本能應用在數據資料上的
03:12
which哪一個 would be applied應用的 to data數據.
60
180819
2408
都沒有被正常閾值偵測到
03:15
So the question is, why couldn't不能 we see it?
61
183227
3143
所以問題在於為什麼我們看不到?
03:18
Was this a predictable可預測 event事件?
62
186370
2581
這是可以預測的事嗎?
03:20
Can we look more at the patterns模式 in the data數據
63
188951
3010
我們能不能從資料的模式中看出端倪
03:23
to be able能夠 to do things better?
64
191961
3380
並採取更好的行動呢?
03:27
So this is a child兒童,
65
195341
2650
這個小孩
03:29
about the same相同 age年齡 as the racing賽跑 car汽車 on stage階段,
66
197991
3232
年紀跟台上這輛賽車相仿
03:33
three months個月 old.
67
201223
1630
都是三個月大
03:34
It's a patient患者 with a heart problem問題.
68
202853
2605
這是一名心臟疾病患者
03:37
Now, when you look at some of the data數據 on the screen屏幕 above以上,
69
205458
3468
現在你看看螢幕上方的資料
03:40
things like heart rate, pulse脈衝, oxygen, respiration呼吸 rates利率,
70
208926
4902
心跳速率、脈搏、含氧量、呼吸速率
03:45
they're all unusual異常 for a normal正常 child兒童,
71
213828
3076
都不是一個正常小朋友該有的數據
03:48
but they're quite相當 normal正常 for the child兒童 there,
72
216904
2642
但是對這個小朋友卻相當正常
03:51
and so one of the challenges挑戰 you have in health健康 care關心 is,
73
219546
4138
因此在醫療照護上所面臨的挑戰之一是
03:55
how can I look at the patient患者 in front面前 of me,
74
223684
2851
如何判斷眼前的病人
03:58
have something which哪一個 is specific具體 for her,
75
226535
3047
有她專屬的資料模式
04:01
and be able能夠 to detect檢測 when things start開始 to change更改,
76
229582
2788
並在情況改變、病情開始惡化時
04:04
when things start開始 to deteriorate惡化?
77
232370
2099
有所察覺?
04:06
Because like a racing賽跑 car汽車, any patient患者,
78
234469
3050
因為跟賽車的道理一樣,任何患者
04:09
when things start開始 to go bad, you have a short time
79
237519
2976
遇到緊急狀況時,我們只有極短的時間
04:12
to make a difference區別.
80
240495
1831
扭轉命運
04:14
So what we did is we took a data數據 system系統
81
242326
2754
所以我們使用一個
在一級方程式賽車年度裡
04:17
which哪一個 we run every一切 two weeks of the year in Formula 1
82
245080
3131
每兩週執行一次的資料系統
04:20
and we installed安裝 it on the hospital醫院 computers電腦
83
248211
3002
並將其安裝於
伯明罕兒童醫院的電腦裡
04:23
at Birmingham伯明翰 Children's兒童 Hospital醫院.
84
251213
2290
04:25
We streamed data數據 from the bedside床頭 instruments儀器
85
253503
2439
我們從小兒科加護病房內的
04:27
in their pediatric小兒科的 intensive集約 care關心
86
255942
2557
床邊儀器得到數據
04:30
so that we could both look at the data數據 in real真實 time
87
258499
3456
如此一來我們可以即時掌握資料
04:33
and, more importantly重要的, to store商店 the data數據
88
261955
2871
而且更重要的是,能夠儲存資料
04:36
so that we could start開始 to learn學習 from it.
89
264826
3057
讓我們能開始從資料中學習
04:39
And then, we applied應用的 an application應用 on top最佳
90
267883
4384
然後,我們運用一個可以即時讓我們
04:44
which哪一個 would allow允許 us to tease out the patterns模式 in the data數據
91
272267
3270
整理出資料模式的應用程式
04:47
in real真實 time so we could see what was happening事件,
92
275537
2956
我們就能看到發生了什麼事
04:50
so we could determine確定 when things started開始 to change更改.
93
278493
3713
我們就能判斷什麼時候開始有狀況
04:54
Now, in motor發動機 racing賽跑, we're all a little bit ambitious有雄心,
94
282206
3863
之於賽車,我們都有點企圖心、
04:58
audacious膽大, a little bit arrogant傲慢 sometimes有時,
95
286069
2549
有點大膽、有時也有點自負
05:00
so we decided決定 we would also look at the children孩子
96
288618
3398
所以我們決定當那些小朋友
被送往加護病房的途中
05:04
as they were being存在 transported to intensive集約 care關心.
97
292016
2957
也要能觀察到他們的資料
05:06
Why should we wait until直到 they arrived到達 in the hospital醫院
98
294973
2154
為什麼我們要等到他們抵達醫院
05:09
before we started開始 to look?
99
297127
1994
才開始呢?
05:11
And so we installed安裝 a real-time即時的 link鏈接
100
299121
2997
因此我們在救護車及醫院之間
05:14
between之間 the ambulance救護車 and the hospital醫院,
101
302118
2836
安裝了一個即時連結機制
05:16
just using運用 normal正常 3G telephony電話 to send發送 that data數據
102
304954
3776
只需使用一般 3G 通訊傳送資料
05:20
so that the ambulance救護車 became成為 an extra額外 bed
103
308730
2487
這樣一來,救護車就等同於
05:23
in intensive集約 care關心.
104
311217
3136
加護病房裡的床位了
05:26
And then we started開始 looking at the data數據.
105
314353
3702
然後我們開始看那些數據
05:30
So the wiggly蠕動 lines at the top最佳, all the colors顏色,
106
318055
2921
上面那些波浪狀的線,所有顏色
05:32
this is the normal正常 sort分類 of data數據 you would see on a monitor監控 --
107
320976
3194
都是我們在監測器上
會看到的正常數據資料
05:36
heart rate, pulse脈衝, oxygen within the blood血液,
108
324170
3772
心跳速率、脈搏、血中的含氧量
05:39
and respiration呼吸.
109
327942
2635
及呼吸速率
05:42
The lines on the bottom底部, the blue藍色 and the red,
110
330577
2753
底部的藍線和紅線
05:45
these are the interesting有趣 ones那些.
111
333330
1360
滿有趣的
05:46
The red line is showing展示 an automated自動化 version
112
334690
3209
紅線代表自動感應的
預警分數
05:49
of the early warning警告 score得分了
113
337899
1597
05:51
that Birmingham伯明翰 Children's兒童 Hospital醫院 were already已經 running賽跑.
114
339496
2487
這些資料是伯明罕兒童醫院
已經跑過的數據
05:53
They'd他們會 been running賽跑 that since以來 2008,
115
341983
2338
他們從 2008 年就開始跑這些數據
05:56
and already已經 have stopped停止 cardiac心臟的 arrests逮捕
116
344321
2256
而且已經成功阻止了
05:58
and distress苦難 within the hospital醫院.
117
346577
2757
院內心搏停止和心臟窘迫的案例
06:01
The blue藍色 line is an indication跡象
118
349334
2432
而藍線呢
是資料模式開始產生變化的指標
06:03
of when patterns模式 start開始 to change更改,
119
351766
2500
06:06
and immediately立即, before we even started開始
120
354266
2309
立即地,甚至在我們開始
06:08
putting in clinical臨床 interpretation解釋,
121
356575
1708
臨床解讀這些數據之前
06:10
we can see that the data數據 is speaking請講 to us.
122
358283
2870
數據已經在對我們說話
06:13
It's telling告訴 us that something is going wrong錯誤.
123
361153
3536
告訴我們情況不妙
06:16
The plot情節 with the red and the green綠色 blobs斑點,
124
364689
3816
這張有紅點與綠點的圖表
06:20
this is plotting繪製 different不同 components組件
125
368505
2805
標示出相互對立資料的不同成分
06:23
of the data數據 against反對 each other.
126
371310
2547
標示出相互對立資料的不同成分
06:25
The green綠色 is us learning學習 what is normal正常 for that child兒童.
127
373857
3840
綠色是我們所知那位病童的正常情況資料
06:29
We call it the cloud of normality常態.
128
377697
2610
我們稱之為常態雲圖
06:32
And when things start開始 to change更改,
129
380307
2241
當情況開始轉變、
06:34
when conditions條件 start開始 to deteriorate惡化,
130
382548
2564
病情開始惡化時
06:37
we move移動 into the red line.
131
385112
2238
我們會移到紅線上
06:39
There's no rocket火箭 science科學 here.
132
387350
1657
這完全不涉及艱深的學問
06:41
It is displaying顯示 data數據 that exists存在 already已經 in a different不同 way,
133
389007
4113
只是以不同的方式呈現既有的資料
06:45
to amplify放大 it, to provide提供 cues線索 to the doctors醫生,
134
393120
3391
詳述它、提供醫生護士更多線索
06:48
to the nurses護士, so they can see what's happening事件.
135
396511
2738
他們就能了解正在發生什麼事
06:51
In the same相同 way that a good racing賽跑 driver司機
136
399249
3130
同樣地,一位優秀的賽車手
06:54
relies依賴 on cues線索 to decide決定 when to apply應用 the brakes剎車,
137
402379
4044
也仰賴線索來決定他何時該煞車、
06:58
when to turn into a corner,
138
406423
1476
何時該轉彎
06:59
we need to help our physicians醫師 and our nurses護士
139
407899
2918
我們須要幫助我們的醫生和護士
07:02
to see when things are starting開始 to go wrong錯誤.
140
410817
3620

ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Peter van Manen - Electronic systems expert
Peter van Manen is the Managing Director of McLaren Electronics, which provides data systems to major motorsports series.

Why you should listen

To say that Peter van Manen has a high-speed job would be an understatement. As Managing Director of McLaren Electronics, which provides electronics and data collection software to motorsports events, he and his team work in real time during a race to improve cars on about 500 different parameters. That's about 750 million data points in two hours.

But recently van Manen and his team have been wondering: Why can't the extremely precise and subtle data-collection and analysis systems used in motorsports be applied elsewhere, for the benefit of all? They have applied their systems to ICU units at Birmingham Children's Hospital with real-time analysis that allows them to proactively prevent cardiac arrests. The unit has seen a 25 percent decrease in life-threatening events. And it's just the beginning.
