Empowering research in critical care.

Transforming Critical Care

In many areas of science, government and business, data has become a major driver of innovation and success. We see the opportunity for the same revolution in critical care.

Meaningful use

Large amounts of data originating from critical care needs to be de-identified, analyzed and curated for it to be mined effectively. Clinicians and Data scientists must work together to understand and explore the meaningful, secondary use of Critical Care data.

Changing healthcare

Our vision is for the development of a care system consisting of Clinical Informatics without walls, in which the creation of evidence and clinical decision support tools is initiated, updated, honed and enhanced by scaling the access and meaningful use of clinical Data.
