A Pipeline for Real-Time Synchronization of Relevant Data in Pediatric Emergencies.

Pediatric emergencies are rare events that require precise medical intervention. The dosing of medication is particularly tricky. The challenges require technical aids for automatic dosage calculation without restricting the emergency physicians' ability to act. This short paper describes the development process of an automatic data processing pipeline that synchronizes multiple sensor data to perform the necessary calculations. In a final evaluation process, two transmission protocols (HTTP and MQTT)), are compared to determine which is more suitable for this application. The results of the evaluation clearly showed that MQTT is the preferred choice for the data processing pipeline due to its significantly lower latency.
