There are some
products that are
able to collect
and manage
data.
Most products
are exclusively
aimed at
collecting useful
data for hospital
management.
Most of these are
not user-friendly
enough for
doctors and
nurses.
Because the tool we needed was
not available on the market

Why did we need to develop SMART ICU?
We wanted something more.
In short, we needed to refine our clinical
practice.
A system with added intelligence to help doctors
avoid variability in the practice and make sound
decisions.

Why did we need to develop SMART ICU?
This data come from many
varied sources.
Overall, they are not not well-
organized and lack proper
connection among them.
They are not ordered in terms of
clinical value.

In reality we have a lot of data available to us,

To develop new algorithms, clinical
pathways and protocols.
To generate new knowledge that we can
offer to the scientific community.

Project objectives and motivation
Welcome to ehCOS Land / ehCOS.com
ehCOS.comWelcome to ehCOS Land / ehCOS.com
The aim of the project is to develop a predictive system for
personalized clinical decision support for acute patients in the
ICUs that uses selective learning from Big Data Analytics.
An intensive care unit (ICU)
is a special department of a
hospital or healthcare
facility that provides
intensive care treatement.

The modules in charge
of collecting and
presenting information
use agile interfaces,
graphs and summary
structures that make
them easier to
understand. The large
volume of data collected
in these areas (clinical
care, biosignals...) makes
for complex and
painstaking management
and interpretation in the
absence of an intuitive
tool to collect, organize
and structure the data in
an easy and agile way.
Adopts specific tools
to assist in the
management of the
processes of
intensive care
patients , generating a
more efficient
distribution of the health
resources used.
Includes an event
management system will
allow the instant
knowledge of the
patient’s health status,
allowing immediate action
to significant changes that
require require attention
from professionals.
Automated and
standardized processes
for capturing patient data
from biomedical devices,
Electronic Health Records,
laboratory, etc. to reduce
machining time and the risk
of error.
05 Discovers relationships between vital signs and
treatments through cross-validation techniques, drawing
conclusions and knowledge to design and predict future
scenarios in the care of patients in intensive care, critical
care and reanimation units.

Implements predictive
models that detect
behavioral patterns to
estimate the response
to the care and the
various treatments used.
Improvements in
treatment protocols to
maximize health
outcomes and optimize
resources.
Measure the
effectiveness of certain
protocols, therapies or
techniques applied in a
coordinated and
standardized manner by
the platform, allowing
comparisons and
detection of side effects
to consider proactively.
Evaluates the cost-
benefit, and even
compares different
techniques related to costs,
repayment terms, effects,
etc.
