UK hospital pioneers AI to detect infections early

East Kent Hospitals NHS Trust is deploying MEMORI, an AI tool from Sanome, to analyze routine patient data (blood tests, vitals, medications, and demographics) and generate an infection risk score, enabling clinicians to spot hospital-acquired infections early and act sooner, while staff remain central to care; the system is designed to support clinicians, improve care and bed flow, and is part of the NHS's digital healthcare push.
