Development of Device, and Method to Provide a Risk Assessment for Early Acute Kidney Injury, Shock

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is associated with a high risk of death. Majority of the critically ill patients suddenly die due to AKI, Hypovolemic Shock, Septic shock due to unrecognized disorder with no symptoms in early stage. The proposed solution: AKI Care AI device is a novel non-invasive attachment to any traditional urinary Foley catheter, for real-time & accurate measurement to monitor kidney function and provides a risk assessment using machine learning tool for clinicians to detect the onset of AKI, septic AKI, hypovolemic shock to intervene & prevent thousands of avoidable deaths.
