Continuous Cardiac Arrest Prediction in ICU using PPG Foundation Model
🗓 Date: July 17, 2025
🕝 Time: 2:30 PM – 2:45 PM
📍 Location: B3 M1-2 (EMBC 2025)
Emory's research on a photoplethysmography (PPG)-only foundation model marks a significant advancement in the use of continuous physiological signals for predicting catastrophic health events. By learning generalizable representations from PPG data, the model can be adapted to a range of downstream tasks, including the early prediction of cardiac arrest. This innovation opens the door to more actionable, remote, and intelligent patient care solutions.
Presented under the EMBC 2025 theme “Engineering Medicine, Innovating Healthcare,” this work exemplifies the potential of interdisciplinary collaboration; uniting clinical expertise, AI, and translational science to reshape the future of healthcare delivery.
👏 Congratulations to the Emory team for this meaningful contribution — we’re honored to be part of this journey.

5th Annual Medical Device Software Development Summit with NKDHS
Honored to have Timothy Ruchti, PhD and Director of Algorithms from Nihon Kohden Digital Health Solutions speak at the 5th Annual Medical Device Software Summit on how we can add real clinical value with predictive algorithms that detect patient deterioration before it's visible to clinicians.
We explored how leveraging continuous physiological data helps us build unbiased, data-driven solutions, and discussed the importance of overcoming the “last mile” by focusing on real-world deployment and seamless clinical integration.
Exciting conversations, sharp minds, and a shared commitment to improving patient outcomes through innovation. Grateful to be part of it!

HIMSS 2025
At HIMSS25, healthcare innovators and experts gathered to explore groundbreaking advancements in medical technology. Two key discussions showcased how organizations are leveraging remote monitoring and predictive analytics to enhance patient care and streamline clinical workflows.
Eric Cucchi from UMASS Memorial Health shared how Tele-ICU and remote monitoring are transforming critical care. By implementing RemoteSense, UMASS Memorial Health is utilizing a vendor-agnostic, interoperable solution to improve remote patient monitoring, optimize workflows, and enhance care coordination—ensuring seamless access to critical patient data across systems.
In another insightful panel discussion, Dr. Raimond Winslow from the Roux Institute was joined by Dr. Jim Fackler, a practicing physician at Johns Hopkins and professor of anesthesiology and critical care medicine, and Dr. Xiao Hu, professor at Emory University’s Nell Hodgson Woodruff School of Nursing and a program faculty, and a program faculty member at department of Biomedical Informatics at School of Medicine, a leader in computational health science. Together, they explored the power of predictive analytics in the session “From Code to Care: Deploying Predictive Analytics Platforms for Clinical Impact.”
Their collective expertise—from data integration and critical care informatics to machine learning and physiological signal processing—highlighted how AI-driven predictive models are helping clinicians anticipate and respond to patient needs with greater precision.
We’re proud to support both UMASS Memorial Health and MaineHealth in their innovation journeys. HIMSS25 was filled with rich conversations, transformative ideas, and inspiring collaborations. Thank you to everyone who attended and engaged with us—we look forward to continuing the conversation and pushing the boundaries of healthcare innovation!

Awesome talk Timothy Ruchti at #SAIPH2024
How can we predict catastrophic events using continuous #data?
In his #SAIPH2024 talk focused on AI at the bedside, Timothy Ruchti, director of algorithms at Nihon Kohden Digital Health Solutions, highlighted recent advancements in the state-of-the-art and provided examples illustrating their potential impact.
"It’s important for model development to begin and end in the clinic: That is, pick a solution worth solving for a clinician, and then consider how that solution is going to be integrated in the clinic," Ruchti said. "That’s the cutting-edge research approach of Rai Winslow at The Roux Institute at Northeastern University. They’re conducting research in collaboration with Maine Health."
