Allen Berning, CEO of Ambient Clinical Analytics, explains that the inability of existing medical devices to detect sepsis early on has made it a life-threatening medical condition. “This is the gap we bridge,” he says. AWARE Sepsis DART uses hospital-defined sepsis detection rules to indicate if sepsis may be present or developing within a patient’s body, and then programmatically coordinates with specified caregivers to assist them in monitoring the treatment during the first critical 3 to 6 hours of care.
In addition to sepsis, Ambient Clinical Analytics’ flagship AWARE platform offers real-time access to vital process-of-care information and analytics for other critical medical conditions as well. Utilizing licensed Mayo Clinic technologies, Ambient Clinical Analytics delivers state-of-the-art real-time bedside healthcare data assimilation, communication, and analytics-based clinical decision support tools that help care providers reduce overall healthcare costs and simultaneously improve patient outcomes.
Created by clinicians for clinicians, AWARE helps clinicians obtain a “smart view” of electronic health data. Integrating with the hospital’s EMR system and bedside monitors, AWARE transforms EHR into a bedside clinical care tool that presents relevant information— customizable for the care practice—on a single screen dashboard, thus resolving information overload, which is the leading cause for cognitive medical errors. Furthermore, facilitating quick access to patient information at the point of care and using color-coded alerts to notify clinicians of a patient’s critical medical condition, AWARE aids in interventional clinical decision-making. The platform also provides an intuitive rounding checklist that offers evidence-based indexing to focus on critical elements of patient data and care delivery. Illustrating a case scenario, Berning says, “In one of our hospital installations in India, clinicians mention that AWARE’s rounding checklist results helped them determine the accurate diagnosis faster.”
Berning largely attributes Ambient’s profound expertise in medical technology as the secret behind the company’s success. This perfect blend of technology and healthcare expertise is what makes AWARE truly “out-of-the-ordinary.” With a major focus on the Indian, Chinese, and European healthcare market, Ambient Clinical Analytics is poised to expand AWARE to other regions and usher a new revolution in healthcare analytics in the coming years.
Additionally, a recently published research by Mayo Clinic reveals that AWARE’s intervention has been able to reduce overall in-hospital and ICU mortality by 7 percent. Simultaneously, the length of a patient’s stay in the ICU has decreased by about 50 percent and total time span in the hospital reduced by 37 percent.![]()
