Thanks to a collaboration between CHUV, EPFL – through the Swiss DataScience Center – and UNIL, a predictive platform based on artificial intelligence is under development to improve patient care.

The first prototypes of applications for predicting the risk of bedsores and recognizing sepsis already show very promising results. This platform would, for example, increase the prediction of bedsores risk by 15 to 20% in hospitalized elderly patients at CHUV and support healthcare teams in implementing preventive measures in real time.
