"Mount Sinai Health System Study Finds Use of AI-Enabled Monitoring System Improves Use of Blood During Childbirth"
According to researchers at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, artificial intelligence may prove to be a useful tool in helping hospitals better manage utilization of blood products. According to Daniel Katz, MD, associate professor of anesthesiology, perioperative & pain medicine at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, “This study demonstrates that efficiently obtaining accurate, real-time blood loss information is critical to the successful implementation of a stage-based hemorrhage protocol.” He added, “Quantifying blood loss may result in increased vigilance for vaginal and cesarean delivery. We identified an association between quantifying blood loss and improved identification of postpartum hemorrhage, patient management steps, and cost savings.”
