For a patient with sepsis—which kills more Americans every year than AIDS and breast and prostate cancer combined—hours can make the difference between life and death. The quest for early diagnosis of ...

In marketing materials and internal documents, national electronic health record vendor Epic Systems has touted the ability of its sepsis algorithm to crunch dozens of variables to detect the ...

Epic Systems has revamped its widely criticized sepsis prediction model in a bid to improve its accuracy and make its alerts more meaningful to clinicians trying to snuff out the deadly condition.

AI is already boosting positive outcomes in health care and holds promise for delivering many more. It is important, however, that deployment of AI tools—especially in a life-or-death health care ...
