🧠Early Detection of Sepsis Using AI at a Texas Hospital: A Clinical and Economic Breakthrough Sepsis, a life-threatening condition caused by the body’s extreme response to infection, affects 1.7 million adults annually in the U.S., leading to approximately 350,000 deaths. Rapid diagnosis and treatment are essential, as mortality increases by 7.6% for every hour of delay in administering antibiotics. In this context, the application of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in healthcare settings has shown transformational potential. A leading Texas-based hospital system implemented a machine learning–driven early warning system for sepsis detection. The results: a 22% reduction in sepsis-related mortality, 2.5…
