    🎉 Congratulations to the Pragmatech AI Solutions team on the successful clinical evaluation of iAST, published in ASM Journals! 🏆 iAST is a groundbreaking AI-driven software designed to reduce medical errors in antibiotic prescriptions, improve infection prognosis, save healthcare costs, and combat antibiotic resistance. This innovation is a significant step forward in enhancing patient care and optimizing health system efficiency. At NAMSA, we are proud to have supported Pragmatech AI Solutions with our comprehensive regulatory and clinical services. We look forward to seeing the continued progression and impact of iAST in the healthcare industry! #NAMSAKnows #AIMedTech #AISolutions #MedicalDevices #AI #SaMD

    Today is a very important day for Pragmatech AI Solutions, as the clinical evaluation of our product iAST, a clinical decision support tool based on #AI to assist in the prescription of #antibiotics, has been published. We are very excited because the work of four years is finally coming out, and in such a prestigious journal as Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy of the American Society for Microbiology. We are also very proud that it has been edited by a world leader in infectious diseases such as Pranita D. Tamma, from the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine. Congratulations to the members of Pragmatech team (Pablo Valledor, Javier Fernández Domínguez, Santiago Romero Brufau, MD, PhD Romero Brufau) who have dedicated so many hours not only to the design of the software but also to the strategy and design of the clinical study to demonstrate its effectiveness. We also want to immensely thank the rest of the Pragmatech team, who, despite being dedicated to other tasks within the company, have provided their continuous support and advice during the process: Ana Fernandez Cuesta, Antón V.. It has been a challenging journey, from which we have learned a lot and had the opportunity to meet and work with great professionals. Many thanks to the researchers at HM Hospitales who carried out the study: Dr. Barberán, Dr. Tejeda, and Dr. Almirall, for their invaluable work and dedication. A huge thanks also to Juan Abarca Cidon Cidón and the HM Foundation, which have always given us their support and have been committed to innovation. The study has been designed and conducted under the highest standards of clinical research in medical devices in accordance with the ISO 14155. In this regard, we also want to thank the team at Toqi (Javier Alonso Álvarez, Javier Arteaga, Vanesa Martínez de Miguel) and at NAMSA (Elisa San Isidro, Álvaro Torcal Legido, Iñigo Sánchez Rodríguez, Beatriz Rodriguez Grande, PhD, among others), great professionals who have helped us to achieve the highest level of quality and excellence and who have audited and monitored the study. Also, thanks to Cristina Pasquau Pumariño y Xolomon for providing us with a top-quality service in the CRD and to Jorge del Campo Yubero for his rigorous statistical analysis. In the coming days, we will be breaking down the article; in the meantime, you can access the publication through the following link: https://lnkd.in/duzUHxAN
