How does RisingWave support patient monitoring?

RisingWave continuously processes vital signs, lab results, and medication data from EHR systems and medical devices. SQL-based alerting rules can detect critical conditions and notify care teams within seconds.

Is RisingWave compliant with healthcare regulations?

RisingWave Cloud supports HIPAA compliance. Its exactly-once processing ensures accurate patient data handling, and S3-based storage provides durable audit trails for regulatory requirements.

The Problem

Are Critical Patient Changes Slipping Between Spot Checks?

Periodic nursing rounds and batch-processed claims leave dangerous gaps. A patient can deteriorate between checks, and claims sit in queues for days -- increasing risk and operational burden.

With RisingWave

Compute Clinical Scores Continuously From Every Vital Sign

RisingWave processes vitals and claims data as it streams in. Write streaming SQL that continuously computes early warning scores, auto-adjudicates claims, and triggers alerts in milliseconds.

ICU Deterioration Detection

Continuously compute Modified Early Warning Scores from streaming vitals -- heart rate, BP, SpO2, respiratory rate -- and flag deterioration before it becomes critical.

Real-Time Claims Adjudication

Auto-adjudicate claims as they arrive by streaming them against policy rules, eligibility checks, and fraud patterns -- reducing processing from days to seconds.

Clinical Alert Automation

Trigger context-rich alerts to care teams the moment a patient crosses a clinical threshold, with full vitals history and recommended interventions attached.

See RisingWave in Action: Healthcare

See how RisingWave processes real data in real time — not a recording, not a simulation.

A 40-bed medical ICU monitors patients with continuous vitals (heart rate, SpO2, blood pressure, respiratory rate). The Modified Early Warning Score (MEWS) predicts deterioration 2-4 hours before a code event — but only if computed continuously from real-time vitals, not from nurse spot-checks every 4 hours.

⚠Patient in bed ICU-12B coded at 3:17 AM. Retrospective chart review showed SpO2 trending down from 96% to 89% over 90 minutes, but the 1 AM spot-check recorded 94% and the next check wasn't until 5 AM.

✓RisingWave computes MEWS every 30 seconds from continuous monitor feeds. Bed ICU-12B's score rises from 2 to 7 as SpO2 drops below 91% and heart rate climbs above 115 — rapid response team called 47 minutes before the code would have occurred.
