Founded in 2016 in Oakland, Calif., Elemeno Health is a digital health start-up backed by leading seed stage digital health investor, Launchpad Digital Health, Silicon Valley tech accelerator, Y Combinator, and leading regulatory tech venture investor, Fenway Summer. Developed in collaboration with UCSF, the company's app engages frontline nurses, doctors and ancillary staff to help them adhere to the consistent delivery of best practices while enhancing teamwork. The Elemeno Health platform is designed as a cloud solution accessible from any device - from desktop to mobile. A one-year study at UCSF Benioff Children's Hospital San Francisco targeted central line care, and Elemeno Health's prototype was deployed in half of the hospital. The results show the app helped to cut central line infections (a costly and deadly hospital acquired infection) in half, saving over $1 million and an estimated three lives. Elemeno Health is a 2016 Medical Entrepreneurship & Disruption (MEDy) award winner, and its app is in use by teams in multiple large academic medical centers, county health systems and provider practices.
