1. A system comprising:

  • an operating table including a plurality of pads,wherein one of the plurality of pads includes a plurality of sensors sensing a plurality of values associated with the pad, and a plurality of radio-frequency identification (RFID) chips,wherein at least a first RFID chip of the plurality of RFID chips is a passive-type RFID chip, wherein at least one of the first RFID chip and a second RFID chip of the plurality of RFID chips includes;

    a controller configured according to instructions in memory to generate a message including an identification information associated with the respective RFID chip and a plurality of sensed values; and

    an antenna portion configured to transmit the message;

    a data collection engine (DCE) communicating with the at least one of the first RFID chip and the second RFID chip, wherein the DCE comprises;

    a power transmission subsystem including a power source and an antenna arranged to wirelessly transmit power from the power source to the first RFID chip;

    a transceiver configured to receive the message from at least one of the first RFID chip and the second RFID chip;

    a controller operatively coupled to the transceiver; and

    one or more memory sources operatively coupled to the controller, the one or more memory sources including instructions for configuring the controller to generate one or more messages indicative of the identification information and the plurality of sensed values to be sent by the transceiver to a server device via a network connection,wherein the first RFID chip includes an antenna for wirelessly receiving the power from the transceiver of the DCE;

    wherein the server device comprises;

    a transceiver configured to receive the one or more messages from the DCE;

    a controller operatively coupled to the transceiver; and

    one or more memory sources operatively coupled to the controller, the one or more memory sources storing;

    a first database including a plurality of operating table risk states, operating table attributes,a trained neural network model (NNM) for generating an output value based upon the plurality of sensed values; and

    instructions for configuring the controller to determine whether the output value corresponds with one or more of the operating table attributes associated with one or more of the operating table risk states in the first database.
