Caretek Medical

Our vision is to improve pregnancy and neonatal outcomes, and also acquire greater insight into the causes of adverse pregnancy outcomes using App technology. The Caretek app will achieve this by allowing pregnant women to obtain person-specific information using an App based system. Caretek has designed this technology and will commercialize the platform internationally and export UK based medical and technical expertise. The ever-increasing demands on healthcare providers make it essential and a priority that healthcare professionals (midwives and doctors) can use their time with pregnant women to provide both appropriate care and accurate information. We know that there is a wide variation in clinical maternity care around the world, but the data that we collect is identical . At present the most frequent causes of mistakes in antenatal and Intrapartum care are incorrect or unavailable data, and also the lack of up-to-date knowledge about current best Obstetric practice. We plan to provide the pregnant women and Healthcare providers with technology that unifies present 'systems' of handwritten notes and electronic records, to which a clinician may not have access to at a critical moment. We plan the App to also provide instant access to the national/international pregnancy guidelines. Caretek has designed a technology platform, which meets the needs of pregnant women and healthcare professionals. The Caretek Medical platform is also a self-learning, artificially intelligent system, comprising an App, secure, cloud-based infrastructure to allow data processing, and third-party devices connected via a Hub (allowing for home monitoring). Caretek Medical serves two main purposes: Caretek Medical at-a-glance uses the latest 'mHealth' technology to guide women through their pregnancies, based on information personalised to their individual characteristics. The clinician is able to access (either online or via the App) a dashboard of key medical indicators,
