Elythea
Elythea is a healthcare diagnostics company based in San Jose and San Francisco, CA, specializing in using machine learning to detect life-threatening pregnancy complications early.
Services
Elythea offers advanced diagnostic services focused on preventing maternal mortalities. Utilizing proprietary machine learning models, the company detects life-threatening obstetric complications as early as the first visit. Their services include the automatic analysis of demographic and clinical risk factors, flagging high-risk patients, and providing evidence-based interventions. These services help health providers, employers, and plans by integrating seamlessly with existing electronic health record (EHR) systems, minimizing administrative overhead.
Technology and Methods
Elythea's technology leverages proprietary machine learning models trained on over 300 million patient data points to detect pregnancy-related complications. Their models demonstrate up to 85% prediction accuracy and have shown a capability to identify complications 2-3 times more effectively than clinical judgment and 10 times sooner. By analyzing demographic factors, patient history, and existing clinical risks, Elythea provides personalized insights and evidence-based recommendations for early intervention and patient counseling weeks to months in advance.
Clinical Studies
Elythea's proprietary machine learning models have been validated through global clinical studies, representing over five countries. These studies have shown that the models can catch 2-3 times more complications than traditional clinical judgment, and do so 10 times sooner. The clinical studies reinforce the effectiveness of Elythea's technology in early detection and prevention of life-threatening pregnancy complications.
Locations and Team
Elythea operates out of two locations in the United States: San Jose, CA, and San Francisco, CA. The company has a small, focused team of two members, working within the healthcare industry, specifically in the diagnostic sub-sector. Elythea was part of the Y-Combinator's summer 2023 batch (S23). Their focus extends across the United States and America/Canada regions.
