The healthcare sector is poised for significant advancements, particularly in the management of mechanical lung ventilation in Intensive Care Units (ICUs). At the forefront of this progress is our newest portfolio company Deep Breath, a company dedicated to improving patient care through their AI-based decision support systems. Their approach aims to optimise lung ventilation settings, ensuring timely and accurate interventions that can enhance patient outcomes whilst also reducing healthcare costs.
Traditionally, managing mechanical ventilation in ICUs has been a complex and labour-intensive process. This not only increases the risk of errors but also places a heavy burden on medical staff. Deep breath recognized these challenges during Covid-19 and set out to develop an intelligent solution that could streamline this process.
Deep Breath’s AI-driven platform continuously monitors patients’ conditions and provides real-time recommendations to medical staff. The system can detect early signs of complications, predict adverse events and suggest optimal ventilator settings. By integrating advanced algorithms with clinical expertise, Deep Breath is transforming the management of mechanical ventilation in critical care.
This technology allows healthcare providers to reduce the length of ICU stays, improve patient outcomes, and free up valuable resources. By minimizing the risk of ventilator-induced lung injuries and other complications, Deep Breaths solution not only benefits patients but also alleviates the workload of medical staff, of which there is already a shortage of.
Anton and Daria, the founders of Deep Breath bring their expertise together from various fields, including machine learning, pharmaceuticals, physics and marketing. Their combined knowledge and dedication to improving ICU care makes them a very capable team!
The potential of Deep Breaths technology is considerable. With up to 20 million people requiring ICU admission annually, and 40-50% of them needing mechanical ventilation annually, the need for optimized lung ventilation support is critical. By providing timely and precise adjustments to ventilator settings, Deep Breath can decrease ICU stays by up to 20% on average, increasing hospital capacity and easing the load on medical staff.
