Perspectives

Data, algorithms and technology: Saving lives in the ICU The opportunities for improving health outcomes are immense, but while the hospital system may have the data and the algorithms, it doesn’t have the mechanism or technology to make this happen in a predictive rather than retrospective way. A digital health platform can screen all the data and connect it to an enterprise solution.
Automation speeds up the process of getting critical lab findings to clinicians Automating the workflow gives clinicians the peace of mind in knowing they will get the needed information quickly and automatically, and that a follow-up procedure will be put in place to ensure that nothing falls through the cracks. For the patients and their families, it means better, faster treatment.
Making all-in-one-day precision medicine a reality with federated view of datasets The push toward personalized and precision medicine has led to some exciting breakthroughs. The objective of the latest innovations is to help patients receive a personalized diagnosis and treatment plan within a short period of time.
