Elythea
ActiveML to predict and prevent pregnancy complications
About
Over 80% of maternal mortalities were preventable with earlier intervention. Currently, doctors miss >50% of moms who have life-threatening complications and wait until labor to start doing manual risk assessments, at which point it's too late. Elythea's proprietary ML models catch life-threatening obstetric complications (like postpartum hemorrhage, preeclampsia/eclampsia, emergency c-section, preterm labor, and more) as soon as the first visit. We automatically analyze relevant demographic and clinical risk factors, flag high-risk patients, and provide evidence-based interventions, giving doctors months in advance to intervene and prevent complications from ever happening. Our global clinical studies have shown that we can catch 3x more complications than clinical judgment 10x sooner.

Launch
80%+ of pregnancy deaths are preventable. We use ML to catch and prevent life-threatening complications starting from the 1st visit.
Elythea launches an ML platform that integrates with EHRs to flag high-risk pregnant patients from the first visit, aiming to enable earlier interventions for conditions like hemorrhage and preeclampsia. The system evaluates risk factors, provides evidence-based actions, and has conducted international studies showing higher detection earlier than current tools.
