WorkingCompany's own claimOfficial ↗

Problem

Sepsis was difficult to identify early because symptoms varied across patients. Legacy detection tools generated false alerts that added work for clinicians.

Approach

Cleveland Clinic piloted Bayesian Health's software at 2 hospitals. The platform analyzed electronic medical records in real time and placed risk alerts in clinical workflows. By September 2025, the software was implemented at 13 hospitals.

Results

10-folddecrease in false alerts in Fairview's pre-clinical comparison, according to Cleveland ClinicCompany's own claim[1]
46%increase in identified cases in the same comparison, according to Cleveland ClinicCompany's own claim[1]

Takeaway

The Fairview results measured alert performance against legacy tools. They did not establish a reduction in mortality from this deployment.
