Sepsis doesn’t wait, and neither can the response. A few hours often separate recovery from a code. Ambient Clinical Analytics built its sepsis management solution Sepsis DART™, around that urgency, and has used it to monitor more than 1 million patients to date. Hospitals can save up to $1 million annually reducing hospital stays and readmissions through better automation and management of sepsis detection and treatment.

That impact only scales as fast as Ambient can get Sepsis DART™ live in new hospitals. Now entering a stage of rapid growth, Ambient has scaled their nationwide footprint without scaling integration headaches.

Working with Redox as their interoperability partner, each new connection has gone live faster than the last, without adding to Ambient’s engineering roadmap or their hospital customers’ IT workload.

How Ambient turned integration into a competitive advantage

Hospitals expect EHR integration to work from day one. Most clinical software companies have to earn that reliability the hard way, staffing an integration team before there’s revenue to justify it, or risking a slower, shakier build instead. Either way, a rocky go-live can cost a hospital relationship before the product ever gets a fair shot.

Ambient skips that tradeoff. Partnering with Redox means every new connection plugs directly and securely into a hospital’s EHR on day one, without a custom integration build standing between a signed contract and a live tool. That reliability becomes part of Ambient’s pitch, not a risk a hospital has to worry about.

Ambient has added new hospital connections every year since 2024, growing from a handful of go-lives into a national footprint.

Real-time data, faster deployment

Sepsis detection depends on seeing a patient’s condition change in real time, not on yesterday’s chart. Ambient’s monitoring tools inherit that real-time data directly from each hospital’s EHR, giving care teams an early warning instead of a retrospective one.

That real-time pipeline needs to stay dependable, especially in a use case where every hour counts. If a connection ever goes quiet, Redox’s alerting flags it right away, so Ambient and its hospital partners find out immediately rather than after the fact.

Getting a monitoring tool into clinicians’ hands fast depends on how quickly a new site can go live. A new connection with Redox often means plugging into infrastructure that’s already built, rather than starting from scratch. Much of that speed comes from Redox’s Connection Network, made up of more than 12,000 connected healthcare organizations.

That speed to value for hospital customers is what Ambient is excited to keep building on as they scale: “Redox has been an instrumental partner in deploying and scaling our solution nationwide. By working together, we deliver reliable and real-time integrations, making our sepsis management system one that hospitals can trust.” – Drew Flaada, Chief Technology Officer, Ambient Clinical Analytics

Lessons from Ambient’s healthcare data integrations

For hospitals and health systems evaluating a sepsis management system, the infrastructure behind that vendor matters as much as the product itself. A tool that plugs into existing EHR workflows on day one, instead of triggering a months-long IT project, is a tool that starts delivering value on day one too.

For vendors watching Ambient’s growth, the lesson extends past sepsis monitoring: scaling a clinical product across hospitals doesn’t have to mean scaling headcount to match. Removing engineering bottlenecks is what propelled Ambient from one integrated hospital to a growing national footprint in just two years.

Looking ahead

Two years in, Ambient is still early in its growth curve. Working with Redox lets Ambient scale new hospital connections while maintaining a lean in-house integration team — so deployment stays fast no matter how many health systems come next.

Whether it’s standing up the next set of connections, or helping Ambient navigate new and complex healthcare data challenges, Redox is the interoperability partner to support that evolution.
