AI-Powered digital platform to unlock proactive care of clinical complications in the critical care, saving lives
http://u-caremedical.com/
U-Care Medical is an innovative start-up spin-off of Politecnico di Torino. We are solving a problem called Acute Kidney Injury (AKI). It occurs due to a systemic critical illness, occurring in about 50% of patients within the Intensive Care Units (ICU). AKI leads to a ten-fold increase of mortality rate and 3 B€ of healthcare costs per year in Italy. The problem is that today it is not possible to detect AKI before it happens, thus limiting its prevention. To solve this problem, U-Care is an innovative medical device that predicts AKI 24 hours before its onset, working as a Digital Biomarker. Combining Artificial Intelligence Algorithms with innovative sensors, U-Care helps the doctor in preventing AKI, saving patient’s lives and reducing healthcare costs.
