WellSpan Health expands use of clinical AI after 'overwhelming' results

刊登時間

WellSpan Health, a large health system serving central Pennsylvania and northern Maryland, has announced it is scaling a clinical AI operating system across all nine of its hospitals and more than 250 care locations.  In the past year, WellSpan used only six modules (similar to care pathways, for example, a brain aneurysm module) of the platform to analyze more than 200,000 advanced imaging studies including brain CAT scans.  Of that 200,000, the AI OS modules identified more than 10,000 potentially critical findings including pulmonary embolism and brain aneurysms. More than 96% of those findings – this is very important, were available to the radiologist for their review within three minutes.

This means for patients who have these urgent findings, their needs are prioritized and treated faster by our teams. For example, the vendor's brain aneurysm module alone has allowed us to escalate an additional 22 cases every month of brain aneurysm, compared with our previous run rates. For one thing, the six modules have delivered more than 650 hours of read time efficiency gains.
