The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has issued an emergency use authorization for hospitals to employ an Israeli-made system that alerts doctors eight hours before Covid-19 patients’ conditions deteriorate, Nathan Jeffay of a Times of Israel reports.
A Predictive Analytics Platform made by CLEW draws on records from thousands of coronavirus patients and uses artificial intelligence to understand what changes take place in patients in the hours before a deterioration.
The software, installed on a hospital’s computers, is designed to manage data for all patients – not just Covid-19 patients – in an intensive care unit, analyze it, tell doctors of expected changes in a patient’s health, and suggest treatments based on the hospital’s protocols.
