ROCHESTER, Minn., May 21, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Ambient Clinical Analytics announced today that University of Alabama Birmingham (UAB) Medicine has signed an agreement to deploy AWARE Sepsis DART™ solutions to drive highly reliable sepsis care throughout its health system.

As one of the industry leaders, UAB recognizes the importance of adopting solutions like AWARE Sepsis DART™ to improve patient care and outcomes.

"Ambient is delighted to be working with UAB, using Sepsis DART™ and our Clinical Control Tower™ to further enable their focused quality improvement efforts." said Al Berning, Ambient CEO. "Sepsis DART™ drives situational awareness through real-time point of care access to vital process-of-care information and real time analytics, allowing providers at UAB to remotely and locally monitor and manage every bed in the health system for sepsis and septic shock."

"Sepsis early identification is a long-standing challenge in health care, exacerbated by the emergence of COVID-19," said Kimberly Glanding, sepsis coordinator for UAB Medicine.
