Decoding Sepsis: Rethinking How We Detect Critical Illness with Tim Sweeney, MD, PhD
Q: What are the future plans for expanding TriVerity beyond the ER?
The goal is to ascend the care pathway into the ICU with precision-stratified immunotherapies, expanding from rapid ER triage to guiding ICU decisions and targeted therapies based on identified subtypes of critical inflammation.
Decoding Sepsis: Rethinking How We Detect Critical Illness with Tim Sweeney, MD, PhD
Q: What evidence supports the claim that TriVerity changes patient outcomes in practice?
Clinicians report life-saving decisions and faster, more appropriate therapies across multiple sites; anecdotes indicate missed deteriorations are reduced, as TriVerity helps distinguish when to escalate care or avoid unnecessary antibiotics, with real cases illustrating improved triage and outcomes.
Decoding Sepsis: Rethinking How We Detect Critical Illness with Tim Sweeney, MD, PhD
Q: Can you walk through how TriVerity actually works in the ER setting?
TriVerity analyzes 29 gene-expression markers from a patient's blood to map the innate immune response, identifying whether an infection is present, its likely type (bacterial vs. viral vs. non-infectious), and the patient's risk of progressing to critical illness, all within about 30 minutes using AI to interpret the patterns.
Building a Better Menopause System: Insights from One Medical’s Dr. Erin Duralde
Q: What does the intake process look like and how does it help the visit?
The intake survey gathers comprehensive health history, symptom burden, and patient concerns to prime both patient and provider for a productive visit and to guide treatment decisions.
Building a Better Menopause System: Insights from One Medical’s Dr. Erin Duralde
Q: Can you talk a little bit about your new menopause, perimenopause offering and introduce yourself?
