DEVICE

Pediatric Rapid Sepsis Trigger (PRST) tool

The digital platform consists of a mobile application integrating a pulse oximetry sensor attached to this device, with embedded smart algorithms that predict a critically ill state, or level of risk (below) in a child presenting at the hospital. The platform also includes an interactive dashboard located in strategic locations (e.g., laboratory, consultation rooms), which connects to the mobile application through a secure local network and displays the triage data to provide real-time monitoring for the physicians who manage the patients.
