Guidance
 Incomplete, inaccurate, untimely data
 Error-prone diagnostic testing
 Ineffective tracking and direction of resources,
 Ineffective clinical work-up and therapy
 Negligible data capture and transmission, results, performance, epidemiology,
demography, surveillance, accountability, …
despite enormous information access
 Blind spending and investment
Cloud
Aggregates data, continually and automatically uploaded from
Fio smart-devices at point of care
Delivers information services via web portal to managers,
administrators, workers, funders, health agencies, patients
via local cell networks
Readers, Tablets, Phones
for health workers at point of care
Automated diagnostic interpretation,
workflow guidance, data capture
via standard browsers
Web Portal
for managers & data stakeholders, anywhere
Gateway: for data mining, analyzing, reporting;
and, for remotely managing health workers

Management
Via Spiri, managers track/administer their fleets of Deki devices:
 Locations, activities, configurations, problems, user permissions, alerts, …
 Shut down, reset, or group Deki devices
 Multidirectional communication for managers and health workers via Deki devices & Spiri
Process Improvement:
Automated Reporting of Point-of-Care Data
Data
Reports
Reports can be flexibly
configured to present data
about devices, users,
diagnostic results,
demographics, surveys,
time, geo-location, ...
Process Standardization
Example: Monitoring service delivery
RDT image captured in the record




Managers identify deviations from protocol, correlate diagnostic activity to drug dispensing
Managers track worker activity and performance patterns over time
RDT images are captured and routinely included as part of the record
Managers assess RDT processing skills of healthcare workers and over-read RDTs if necessary
Pricing Model
 Deki : no capital equipment barrier; rental pegged to usage
 Spiri: fee per dataset upload for information services; uploads pegged to usage
-
“dataset” is the data associated with one patient session, which is uploaded at once
-
fees organized to fit into existing data budgets… not from diagnostic budget
-
pricing model designed for sustainability
 Purchase order a three-year contract
