Antimicrobial Stewardship

Despite widespread adoption of antimicrobial stewardship programs, the CDC estimates approximately 30 percent of antibiotics used in hospitals are unnecessary or prescribed incorrectly. Sentri7 helps hospitals continuously improve the appropriate use of antibiotics by arming clinicians with information to prevent harm while minimizing drug costs.

Predictive Surveillance

Clinical artificial intelligence takes the guesswork out of C. difficile detection.

Reducing the rate of antibiotic-resistant infections is critical to patient safety and to clinical and financial performance. The AI-powered surveillance behind Sentri7’s predictive CDI algorithm continuously monitors the inpatient hospital population in real-time to identify at-risk patients sooner. Sentri7 monitors patients’ risk levels and automatically updates the score if the patient condition changes, allowing clinicians to address modifiable risk factors at appropriate stages and proactively prevent C. diff infection.

A large health system targets high-cost antibiotics to decrease pharmacy spend

Identifying ertapenem (INVANZ) as a target for five key hospitals, a large health system utilized Sentri7 clinical surveillance to track daily prescribing over the course of a year in the inpatient setting with the goal of substituting to meropenem due to its lower cost and better overall spectrum of activities. The health system was able to decrease overall ertapenem vials thereby reducing spend on this high-cost antibiotic and upholding each hospital's commitment to high-quality care. That’s the Sentri7 difference.

81% decrease in ertapenem vials reducing overall drug spend
