Avo vs KATE

Triage acuity and sepsis flags are an emergency department nursing director's concern, and no-code pathway building is a chief medical information officer's, which keeps the two off one shortlist. KATE, from Mednition in Burlingame, recommends a triage acuity level and flags sepsis risk from EHR data at triage. The vendor says it needs no workflow change, and the homepage names no EHR. A 2019 vendor release claimed triage accuracy up 26.9% at Adventist Health White Memorial. Three PubMed papers under Mednition's affiliation have Mednition employees as authors, and none of the three titles names KATE. KATE Sepsis holds a Breakthrough Device Designation from November 2023, which is a designation and not a clearance, and an openFDA search by applicant and device name returned no K or DEN number.

Avo's pages describe no-code guideline pathways that a health system builds, an AI Consult chatbot in the EHR, and Chart Assist copilots for admission, rounding and discharge. The vendor claims implementation runs 94% shorter.
