Description

Product Description:
  • eCART is a research-based, AI-driven software as a medical device (SaMD) that utilizes a machine learning algorithm to continuously assess hospitalized patients’ risk of impending death or intensive care unit (ICU) transfer, assisting medical staff in swift and accurate recognition of patients requiring increased medical attention. eCART draws upon readily available patient data from the EHR, rapidly quantifies disease severity, and predicts likelihood of critical illness onset, hours before it happens.
  • eCART received FDA 510(k) clearance in 2024, with clinical performance data of nearly two million hospitalizations from 21 hospitals, including an unprecedented level of real-world prospective data, to ensure consistent accuracy across geography, age, race, and top medical conditions (e.g. sepsis, COPD, heart failure). 
  • Built upon more than a decade of ongoing scientific research, eCART was developed at UChicago Medicine by Dr. Dana Edelson, MD, MS and Dr. Matthew Churpek, MD, PhD and is well chronicled in published literature. The analytic and workflow have been in use in clinical practice since 2016.
About AgileMD:

At AgileMD, we are building the most advanced real-time predictive analytics and clinical pathways platform for hospitals.

To date, AgileMD tools have been used on more than 4 million patient encounters by more than 135,000 clinical users in over 250 hospitals, including some of the nation's leading academic medical centers. AgileMD's eCART clinical deterioration prediction software is FDA cleared and the first AI-powered early warning device for ward patients to go through the FDA process with real-world prospective data. 

AgileMD is backed by premier start-up partners MATTER, YCombinator, and Rock Health, and our cutting-edge analytics are built on more than decade of ongoing research at the University of Chicago. In 2021, AgileMD garnered nearly $3 million in combined federal research and development funding from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), including the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA).

Product Description:

Extend the reach of your healthcare services with hellocare’s Hospital at Home and RPM Module. This component enables monitoring of patient vitals from the comfort of their homes, ensuring timely interventions. Our technology allows patients to chat or speak directly with assigned care team members, enhancing communication and support. Additionally, the system automatically triggers surveys if vitals deviate from safe ranges, providing crucial feedback to adjust care plans effectively and promptly, reducing readmissions and enhancing patient management. 

About hellocare:

Transform your existing hospital room into an integrated virtual care delivery hub with hellocare

Unlock the power of virtual care delivery with hellocare AI-assisted platform by transforming any patient room TV into virtual care delivery hub for virtual nursing, phyiscian rounding with live examination, virtual sitting (with AI-based algorithms for fall prevention, fall detection, pressure injury prevention, patient mobility tracking), patient engagement and entertainment, care coordination and clinical communications, to deliver hybrid care anytime from anywhere while enhancing patient engagement. 

Transforming your existing hospital room TV into a virtual care delivery hub, enables providers, nurses, and sitters to communicate and manage care via real-time audio and video calls, directly from your EHR to the patient room. Clinical teams and patients can invite members of the family and care team to participate in these calls, driving patient engagemeent and enabling them to take ownership of their health, which is known to improve health outcomes and patient satisfaction.

Product Capabilities

Patients using hellocare can measure their vitals live during calls or offline. When vitals fall outside normal ranges, the system triggers alerts to the care team and sends follow-up surveys to the patient to ensure timely interventions.

hellocare enables bidirectional communication, allowing patients and care teams to connect synchronously and asynchronously 24/7, ensuring continuous support and interaction.

hellocare utilizes an early warning score system that analyzes multiple vital signs to identify patients at risk of deterioration, potentially preventing hospitalization by prompting early intervention.

hellocare offers customizable care plans and pathways that can be tailored to specific conditions for clinical decision support and patient engagement, with ready-to-ship packages based on each patient's program.

hellocare streamlines operational support by offering seamless logistics management, comprehensive staff training, efficient patient onboarding, and continuous technical support, all designed to enhance the clinician experience without adding complexity.

Use Cases

Description:

eCART anticipates all cause clinical deterioration in medical-surgical (ward) patients and is validated for sepsis, COPD, heart failure, and COVID-19. The EHR-embedded software device is used to prevent failure to rescue and improve timely ICU transfers using a highly-accurate risk score, an interpretable patient dashboard, and actionable clinical workflows.

Pediatric use cases:

pCART, the pediatric version of eCART, is available for research use and is used in clinical practice today. We would be happy to discuss a partnership.

Users:

Medical-surgical nurses and providers, rapid response & critical care teams

Description:

hellocare's remote patient monitoring (RPM) solutions in the hospital-at-home model support various critical use cases. These include: 

Chronic disease management, where patients with long-term conditions like diabetes or hypertension can be monitored continuously to manage their health better.  

Post-operative care is another key area, allowing patients recovering from surgeries to be observed closely in the comfort of their homes, reducing readmission rates and improving recovery outcomes.  

Acute condition monitoring is facilitated by the RPM platform, providing real-time data to manage sudden health issues promptly.  

High-risk patient management, including those with complex health conditions, benefits from continuous monitoring and quick interventions.  

 

Pediatric use cases:

Yes, Hospital at Home and Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM) Module works for pediatrics. This program is adapted to meet the unique needs of children, allowing them to receive medical care and monitoring in the comfort of their home. This can include managing chronic conditions, post-surgical care, or acute illnesses with tools tailored for pediatric use, such as child-friendly devices and interfaces. Such programs often involve parents and caregivers more directly in the child's care, improving comfort and potentially reducing stress and hospital readmission rates.

Users:

The primary users of hellocare's Hospital-at-Home include patients with chronic conditions requiring ongoing management, post-operative patients who need continuous monitoring to prevent complications, and those with acute health issues that necessitate real-time oversight. Healthcare providers, including nurses and physicians, use the platform to monitor patient data in real-time, receive and make calls, and provide timely care. Caregivers and family members also play a crucial role, as the platform's features allow them to support and monitor their loved ones' health remotely, ensuring that patients receive comprehensive care without the need for prolonged hospital stays​​​.
