Cogni.Dx Ltd. is a London-based startup company that provides early-stage diagnostic and long-term care solutions for neurological conditions. It has developed a unique digital diagnostic application, powered by proprietary Artificial Intelligence, for the early detection and diagnosis of all stages of dementia and pre-dementia (MCI) through an automated history taking and cognitive assessment process. The tool requires no clinical judgement and can be administered promptly at home by the patient and/or carer and later reviewed by a primary care physician. This vastly reduces the waiting period for a dementia diagnosis at the primary care level and distinguishes dementia from normal ageing and psychological disorders.

Study: Digital Root Cause Analysis of Patient Safety Incidents in the NHS This novel study mapped the pathway patients take before and after an inpatient fall safety incident that helped in developing and validating fall risk assessments and constructing interventions to improve the quality of care. It involved accurate and extensive linking of the Cerner EHR to a safety incident reporting system (Datix) to find the national combined prevalence of inpatient falls and the mixed burden of harm through the intelligent analysis of ICD10 coded patient injuries and free-text, unstructured clinical notes.
