Are you involved with mechanical ventilation either as a clinician or manufacturer/provider? If so we would love to hear from you.
This video quickly explains our technology.
Mechanical Ventilation is a lifesaving tool.
However over exposure can initiate and propagate lung injury, leading to increased length of stays and complications, increased mortality rates and thus increased costs for hospital organisations
Lung protective ventilation is currently the only treatment in which care givers have to manually monitor ventilator parameters to ensure patient is being managed efficiently and safely. However, compliance with lung protective ventilation (LPV) is currently as low as 15% of patients.
Our Value Proposition
Revolutionary
Our technology revolutionises the delivery of mechanical ventilation. We predict threshold breaches of the accepted LPV parameters 1 hour of ahead in time allowing for early intervention before the threshold is breached. This alert one hour ahead allows the care giver to prevent the breach from occurring and thus ensures the lung remains protected.Our research shows that on average, more than 70% of the alerts generated per patient would have been predicted using our technology and thus could have been prevented. Further our results show that we can predict values of the given parameter within 10% of the true values.The creation of the SAIV dashboard will allow for visualization and analysis of ventilator parameters for care givers. The alerts will allow for early prevention which reduces workload/number of alerts in the future and ensures the lungs remain protected. Our predictions will also reduce the number of false positive alerts which exist in current ventilator systems.
End Users
The end user is the clinicians (doctors and nurses) based in the ICUs who interact with the alerts/dashboard who want to improve patient care and LPV compliance. They will further be interested in how SAIV can decrease work load and the number of alerts they have to respond to.
