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.

Use cases and differentiators

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.

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.

Lowered our predictable cardiac arrests substantially

20 years ago today, Alexian Brothers launched our nurse led rapid response team. I am incredibly proud of the team and their relentless efforts to improve pt outcomes. Truly believe it has been one of the most impactful interventions ever developed. Then along came eCART, an AI driven tool that identifies at risk patients. The result of combining these two systems has lowered our predictable cardiac arrests substantially. With almost 63,000 patients contacts logged over 20 years, not only have we prevented cardiac arrests, but have also reduced preventable transfers to ICU, provided nursing education, and implemented numerous performance improvement projects. I would like to thank our administration for their support as well as Dr. Edelson for her exceptional product and of course my deepest gratitude goes out to the hardest working rapid responders out there. Well done!
