The
Rothman Index (RI)
is a life-saving patient score devised by Michael and Steven Rothman after their mother passed away. I designed and installed the first system that automatically extracted the RI from the Electronic Medical Record at
Sarasota Memorial,
now a CMS 5-star hospital.
Perahealth
, the company that grew from our early collaboration, has RI installations at about 50 hospitals, one of which, Houston Methodist, recently reported a
30% reduction in mortality
since becoming a user.
Below is an anonymized clickable demo. Click a small graph and then click a couple of data points in the resulting larger graph for some insight into how the RI works. Go back to the previous tab to select other graphs...
