Hamilton Surgeons Use AI to Revolutionize Post-Surgery Care and Save Costs

Hamilton Business Review

This innovative AI tool, created by Waterloo medical technology company FluidAI Medical, could also save hospitals hundreds of thousands of dollars by reducing the need for certain medical tests, emergency department visits and readmissions.
‘Through partnerships like this, we’re bringing leading-edge innovations to HHS that are having a profound impact on patient care by saving and prolonging lives,’ says Dr. Ted Scott, vice president of innovation and partnerships for HHS.“
