Supply Chain Manager

Our smART+™ platform is a sensor-based feeding system for intensive care unit (ICU) patients. It aims to prevent life-threatening complications such as ventilator-associated pneumonia, malnutrition, and acute kidney injury. We recently introduced Nutrition Management 2.0™, which is a comprehensive, guideline-driven approach that aims to improve nutrition while reducing feeding complications. Combined with our smART+™ platform, it monitors, analyses, and prevents malnutrition and gastric aspirations in real time. By improving nutrition and achieving 100% feeding efficiency, the smART+™ platform greatly reduces hospital-acquired complications and speeds up ICU patient recovery.
