Proventys
Area of expertise: Web Applications & Services
Domain: Medical Technology
Overview
The first-generation Proventys software platform was developed through a strategic outsourcing arrangement between Zitec and the Durham, North Carolina based US company Proventys. The Proventys software platform is based on an advanced technology used for the personalization of medical treatment and support for clinical decisions during the medical care process.Beneficiary
Proventys is a healthcare technology company advancing personalized medicine through predictive diagnostics delivered at the point of care.The company's proprietary, web-based platform leverages validated risk models and other predictive technologies to help clinicians make complex treatment decisions personalized to the patient across a range of disease conditions. By helping clinicians predict individual patient outcomes and guiding appropriate care decisions, Proventys is enabling a prospective, personalized approach to healthcare.
Proventys has a strategic partnership with McKesson Corporation, a healthcare services and healthcare information technology company dedicated to helping its customers deliver high-quality healthcare by reducing costs, streamlining processes, and improving the quality and safety of patient care.
Project Description
The Proventys platform incorporates multivariate statistical models developed and validated by medical and scientific experts. These models integrate various information from the clinical history of the patient, such as the type and present stage of the illness, the demographic factors (age, sex, social class, level of education, profession), the history of treatments and diagnoses, the sensitivity to certain drugs, allergies, and other factors.Through these predictive models, the Proventys application generates individual patient risk scores and proposes treatment recommendations according to published clinical guidelines.
Since the initiation of the software development project, the application has undergone continuous improvement and testing with users. In this sense, it started with a model of extreme programming which responded to the need to create fast prototypes and it continued with a classic mode of software development (the spiral analysis, implementation, testing, implementation). Moreover, new facilities and functionalities are being integrated and adapted to the emerging technologies in the healthcare field.
At this point in time, the Proventys platform is an investigational device not yet approved by the US Federal Drug Administration for commercialization.
