PATIENT DIGITAL TWIN

PERSONALIZING SEPSIS CARE

sepsis

Sepsis is a serious condition of infection and inflammation that can rapidly lead to tissue damage and organ failure. Detection and treatment are difficult, causing the condition to be fatal in many cases.

Digital Twin

A Digital Twin is a digital replica of a physical object. In this case we are developing a Digital Twin of a patient. This digital replica allows researchers to observe the patient in real time while simulating and predicting a the clinical outcome given different scenarios.

Overview of the sepsis detection and treatment workflow (black) and the Patient Digital Twin (blue).

The patient Digital Twin will combine continuous vital sign data, biochemical data and model predictions to create a digital replica of the patient. This Digital Twin is a tool that provides the clinical team decision support.

FEATURES

Therapy

Optimize and personalize drug therapy in patients on the ICU.

Monitoring

Detect unusual patient progression and provide clinical decision support.

Modelling

Develope and use disease and patient models to simulate clinical outcomes.

About us

We are a collaboration between Eindhoven University of Technology, Erasmus Medical Center and Radboud University Medical Center. Our goal is to develop a patient Digital Twin that can be used to improve sepsis detection and management.
