Patient monitoring platform
Isansys Lifecare, a new generation digital healthcare company from Oxford, has fought off competition from across the country to be nominated for a prestigious national innovation award.
The company has created the Patient Status Engine (PSE), a new patient monitoring platform which collects and analyses patients’ vital signs and will alert doctors and nurses if a person’s health is deteriorating.
It is believed that the system could achieve a saving of £70 million annually for the NHS by allowing medical teams to intervene as soon as problems develop, improve the outcome of treatment for patients, and potentially help avert 6,000 deaths each year.
Isansys is one of just five companies nominated for the Innovation Leading to Productivity Improvement category in Innovate UK’s Small Business innovation awards. They also have a chance of winning the best of the best “Inspirational innovation” award.
The awards will be presented on 25th October in the House of Commons.
