Ambient Clinical Analytics Signed the Patient Safety Movement Foundation’s Open Data Pledge
Rochester, MN – Ambient Clinical Analytics announced today that it signed the Patient Safety Movement’s Open Data Pledge, a public pledge to share their data to promote patient safety. Founded by a Mayo Clinic academic clinical team and seasoned technology entrepreneurs, Ambient Clinical Analytics’ software enhances the way critical care providers operate. The company sells real time clinical decision support systems and alerting tools to hospitals which result in reduced errors, lower health care costs, and better patient outcomes.
The Open Data Pledge is designed to foster a marketplace of data analytics to encourage entrepreneurs to develop novel uses of health data that will improve patient safety and reduce preventable deaths. If enough medical technology companies share the data their products are purchased for, it allows engineers and researchers to develop predictive algorithms that notify clinicians and patients of dangerous trends. The pledge does not ask any company to share protected or proprietary data or not follow all the privacy laws. To date, 84 companies have made the pledge: http://patientsafetymovement.org/commitments/medical-technology-company-pledges.
“At Ambient Clinical Analytics, we understand the power of data to save lives and our analytics based, real- time, point-of-care solutions like Sepsis DART rely on real-time data to improve Sepsis detection and the monitoring of Sepsis treatment.” said Al Berning CEO of Ambient Clinical Analytics. “We look forward to working closely with the Patient Safety Movement Foundation in eliminating preventable patient deaths.”
