Artificial Intelligence Distributionally Robust Optimisation of Community Clinic Oxygen Concentrator Power Allocation Under Variable Grid Voltage Sag Reporting: A computed Healthcare Continuity Evaluation

Community clinics that depend on pressure-swing adsorption oxygen concentrators face a power-allocation problem in which the reported severity of grid voltage sags is itself uncertain, so that a controller tuned to a nominal sag distribution can silently misallocate current during the very events it was designed to survive. the present analysis formulates concentrator power allocation as a distributionally robust optimisation problem over an ambiguity set of sag-reporting distributions and derives a tractable reformulation whose worst-case expectation is bounded by a conditional value-at-risk penalty on the reporting error. The design is evaluated as a replication-based operating-characteristics study of a before-after-control-impact estimator under a declared variance structure (between-cluster standard deviation 6.0, residual standard deviation 4.5, intraclass correlation 0.64), with power estimated across 2000 replications per design cell for cluster counts of 8, 16, 24 and 32 and effect sizes of 3, 5 and 8 percentage points. The analysis indicates that 54 clusters are required to detect a 5-percentage-point continuity effect at 80 per cent power, and that the minimum detectable effect falls steeply between 8 and 24 clusters before flattening. The contribution is a formal bridge between distributionally robust allocation and the clustered evaluation designs that community-health planners actually use, together with an explicit statement of the cluster counts at which that bridge becomes informative.
