Rehabtronics to Join PressureSmart Consortium for Advancing Pressure Injury Prevention Using Artificial Intelligence (AI)
VANCOUVER, BC, Sept. 9, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Rehabtronics, a leader in advancing neurostimulation technology, is joining the PressureSmart Consortium in collaboration with six leading partners — Medtronic, Swift Medical, Thrive Health, Amii (Alberta Machine Intelligence Institute), Excelar, and Providence Health Care Ventures. This innovative project, co-funded by DIGITAL, Canada's Global Innovation Cluster for digital technologies, aims to revolutionize the prevention, early detection, and management of pressure injuries (PIs).
不列顛哥倫比亞省溫哥華,2024年9月9日 /PRNewswire/ — 先進神經刺激技術的領導者Rehabtronics將與六個主要合作伙伴——美敦力、斯威夫特醫療、Thrive Health、Amii(艾伯塔省機器智能研究所)、Excelar和普羅維登斯醫療保健風險投資公司合作加入PressureSmart聯盟。這個創新項目由加拿大全球數字技術創新集群DIGITAL共同資助,旨在徹底改變壓力損傷(PI)的預防、早期發現和管理。
Pressure injuries, which affect 26% of patients in Canadian healthcare settings, significantly diminish the patient's quality of life and lead to costly, extended hospital stays. Rehabtronics' proprietary technology Prelivia is designed to protect patients from pressure injuries by stimulating blood circulation, thereby increasing tissue oxygenation, and decreasing pressure induced tissue damage.
壓力性損傷影響了加拿大醫療機構中26%的患者,這顯著降低了患者的生活質量,並導致昂貴的長期住院時間。Rehabtronics的專有技術Prelivia旨在通過刺激血液循環來保護患者免受壓力損傷,從而增加組織氧合,減少壓力引起的組織損傷。
"We are pleased to collaborate with leading experts in advancing our mission to transform pressure injury care' states Rahul Samant, CEO of Rehabtronics. "The integration of our Prelivia technology into the PressureSmart platform provides a cost-effective intervention for patients at risk or showing early signs of pressure injuries. Partnering with other technology leaders also allows us to leverage our combined strengths and deliver a scalable, comprehensive solution for managing pressure injuries."
Rehabtronics首席執行官拉胡爾·薩曼特表示:「我們很高興與領先的專家合作,推進我們變革壓力傷害護理的使命。」「將我們的Prelivia技術集成到PressureSmart平台中,爲處境危險或出現壓力損傷早期跡象的患者提供了一種具有成本效益的干預措施。與其他技術領導者合作還使我們能夠利用我們的綜合優勢,爲壓力性傷害管理提供可擴展的全面解決方案。」
In addition to its Prelivia early intervention technology, Rehabtronics will develop an AI/ML (Artificial Intelligence/Machine Learning) model for the prediction of new and progressing hospital-acquired pressure injuries. This will enable nursing resources to be focused on the patients most in need.
除了其Prelivia早期干預技術外,Rehabtronics還將開發一種AI/ML(人工智能/機器學習)模型,用於預測新的和正在進行的醫院獲得性壓力損傷。這將使護理資源能夠集中在最需要的患者身上。
"AI will revolutionize global health care systems by providing greater access and better outcomes for Canadians and for people around the world," says Sue Paish, CEO of DIGITAL. "DIGITAL is proud to co-invest alongside Canadian innovators to support partnerships such as the PressureSmart project team to amplify Canadian industry expertise in building relevant AI solutions that advance human health while building global commercial pathways for Canadian companies."
DIGITAL首席執行官蘇·派什說:「人工智能將爲加拿大人和世界各地的人們提供更多的機會和更好的結果,從而徹底改變全球醫療保健系統。」「DIGITAL很榮幸能與加拿大創新者共同投資,以支持PressureSmart項目團隊等合作伙伴關係,以擴大加拿大在構建相關人工智能解決方案方面的行業專業知識,這些解決方案可促進人類健康,同時爲加拿大公司建立全球商業途徑。」
With a total budget of over 22 million, the PressureSmart project will enable clinicians and caregivers to track patient positioning, identify high-risk areas for PIs, and facilitate early intervention. This cohesive solution aims to enhance patient outcomes and quality of life, reduce clinical staff burden, and provide a scalable approach to address PI (Pressure Injuries) care.
PressureSmart項目的總預算超過2200萬,將使臨床醫生和護理人員能夠跟蹤患者定位,確定PI的高風險區域,並促進早期干預。這種凝聚力的解決方案旨在改善患者預後和生活質量,減輕臨床人員的負擔,並提供一種可擴展的方法來解決PI(壓力性損傷)護理問題。
