AI Hospital of the Future

Smarter, safer, & more efficient hospitals through AI.

With the ongoing introduction of artificial intelligence, healthcare is undergoing a rapid digital transformation. Artificial intelligence, or AI, provides new ways to integrate data in real time and improve both the patient and provider experience.

The integration of technology, including artificial intelligence and automated software tools, is becoming essential in addressing staffing challenges. Over 80% of health system executives expect AI to significantly impact their organizations by 2025, helping ease or eliminate some tasks currently borne by healthcare workers.

CURRENT CHALLENGES

Constant beeping
Medication pumps, monitors, beds, ventilators, vital sign machines, and feeding pumps — are alarms that are all too familiar to nurses, especially in the intensive care unit. Research indicates that 72% to 99% of all alarms are false which has led to alarm fatigue. (Nurse.org)
Delays waste resources
Increase risk of hospital acquired infections, and negatively impact patient outcomes. The Healthcare Association of New York State examined data from 52 hospitals and found 60,000 delay days (defined as delayed hospital discharge due to various medical, non-medical, or administrative/coordination reasons) from April to June 2022, estimating associated costs of $169 million.
Patient falls are a common dilemma
And comprise the largest category of preventable adverse events in hospitalized patients. These events place a clinical burden on the patient, such as increased morbidity and reduced quality of life. Approximately 700,000 to 1 million patients experience a fall while hospitalized each year. Up to one-third of these falls result in injury, with approximately 10% resulting in serious injury. (PubMed).
Approximately 74 million people live In a primary care HPSA
Health Professional Shortage Area (HPSA), and 58 million people live in a dental health HPSA as of June 14, 2024 . A total of 122 million people live in a mental health HPSA; healthcare workforce scarcity will result in severe shortages in rural communities.
Poor patient satisfaction scores
Significantly influence reimbursement rates in healthcare through the Hospital Value-Based Purchasing Program. Hospital environments create challenges that can sabotage patient satisfaction scores regardless of clinical quality.
