Location and interaction data for workers in a hospital unit are useful for epidemiological research. This article describes a one-week study measuring contacts between healthcare professionals in a medical intensive care unit. Measurements capture the duration of contact, defined as being within six feet (1.8 ± 0.1 meters) distance between instrumented persons or between persons and selected locations throughout the unit. Within each patient room, measurements distinguish between three places: the sink, the computer, and the vitals monitor. Data from the study, approximately 15 million records, are processed into different formats that facilitate analysis.
医院科室工作人员的位置和互动数据对流行病学研究很有用。本文描述了一项为期一周的研究，该研究测量了医疗重症监护病房中医护人员之间的接触情况。测量记录了接触时长，接触时长定义为佩戴仪器的人员之间或人员与科室选定位置之间距离在6英尺（1.8±0.1米）以内的时长。在每个病房内，测量区分了三个位置：水槽、电脑和生命体征监测仪。该研究的数据约有1500万条记录，被处理成便于分析的不同格式。
