Description

Product Description:

NESA Virtual Care enables instantaneous, live communication between providers and patients across all levels of care.

NESA's AI-powered platform is uniquely embedded directly in the EHR enabling single sign-on, virtual care, and documentation all within the electronic health record environment.

NESA supports comprehensive virtual care workflows, including virtual nursing, virtual sitting, interdisciplinary rounding, consultations, patient education, staff safety monitoring and behavioral health monitoring. These functions significantly enhance both patient outcomes and staff efficiency.

By empowering healthcare professionals to make more data-driven, real-time decisions, NESA greatly improves the delivery and timeliness of care.

It can perceive different elements, recognize them, analyze them, and enable caregivers to act upon them in real-time, all within a single virtual care platform.

And best of all - it's embedded within leading EHR systems, so there is no additional system to learn or sign into.

By incorporating these AI enhancements directly into virtual workflows within the clinical setting, healthcare organizations can increase patient safety, improve clinical outcomes, enhance user experience, and optimize overall operational performance.

About NESA Inc.:

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).
