Hospital-acquired infections are the fourth leading cause of death in America, killing more people than AIDS and breast cancer combined (50,000 vs. 49,000 approximately).
Infonaut tracks patients, staff and assets in hospitals within six inches of accuracy. Niall Wallace said that the company’s technology helps hospitals figure out how and when diseases make the leap from people to things and back to people.
“It’s a massive data play,” he said. “We can determine who is most at risk in an environment when an infection is discovered.”
