Korean startup AITRICS aims to provide
predictive, preventive and personalized healthcare utilizing the power of
Artificial Intelligence (AI). The digital healthcare startup has developed an
AI-based predictive solution that can help detect health problems at a much
earlier stage than at the onset of signs or symptoms. The predictive analysis
service by AITRICS is likely to be a helpful device considering the aging
population and spiraling health issues worldwide.
Preventing Health Emergencies using AI
AITRICS’ VitalCare is the first AI-driven
patient risk prediction system that collects patient data such as vital signs
and lab tests directly from electronic medical records (EMR). It generates
prediction scores for clinical deterioration and sepsis 4 to 24 hours in
advance. The product aims to deliver an integrated healthcare interaction
system by providing real-time predictive analytics solutions to aid physicians
in the early detection of subtle signs of patient deterioration. VitalCare was
created through a joint venture with DAMC in 2019. The venture combined
AITRICS’ unique AI system with DAMC’s vast experience in the medical field to
develop cutting-edge AI technology that will provide next-generation medical
services.
The VitalCare system improves patient
safety, helps doctors save more lives, and effectively reduces medical costs by
identifying patients with a high risk of clinical deterioration. It also
identifies the contributing clinical factors through analyzing data from
different sources. The product was designed to be implemented in the ICU,
emergency unit, and general wards to prevent failure to rescue (FTR) and
optimize the healthcare institution’s patient admissions and discharge
processes, thereby improving its efficiency while reducing costs. Through the
Vital Care system’s predictive analytical solutions, healthcare professionals
can make the right medical decision and administer the appropriate healthcare
services to high-risk patients.
