  • Earlier intervention when it matters most: Minutes can be the difference between life and death for patients with hospital-acquired infections (HAIs) like sepsis or C.difficile. AI technology in Sentri7® and POCAdvisor is predicting infections faster so patients get every fighting chance.
  • Unlocking hidden insights: Critical patient information lost in physician notes is extracted and mapped by Health Language® clinical natural language processing (cNLP) for better informed care and AI is eliminating barriers between siloed data across healthcare systems.
