Abstract

This paper proposes another dynamic prediction procedure that observes nurses’ conversations to determine critical points in nursing accidents or incidents. The points would be be suggested by words that have a certain feature. We regard such words that might cause accidents or incidents as chances. This paper analyzes these types of words and describes their features to dynamically determine the point at which an accident or incident occurs.
