Operationally Integrated Approach to Nutritional Monitoring in Healthcare Settings Addresses a Critical Challenge in Patient Care

NEW YORK & BOSTON & ZURICH: Hologram Sciences, an AI-focused health tech company, today announced the Nutrition Multimodal Language Model (NuMLM) designed to target nutritional monitoring in healthcare settings. This technology, a key component of Hologram’s larger Precision Nutrition Platform (PNP), is designed to provide accurate, real-time nutritional monitoring in healthcare settings. NuMLM addresses the large-scale challenge of correctly assessing individual patient nutrition, a widely documented and operationally intensive obstacle to optimizing patient outcomes.

The NuMLM foundation model is built on Hologram Sciences' proprietary food-image database, which contains large historical images that have complete and accurate nutritional assessments. The database uses a specialized set of training data comprised of meal images accumulated over many years, facilitating exact recognition and nutritional evaluation of a wide range of food items. Advanced image segmentation techniques are used to analyze the quantity of food before and after consumption, vital for precise calculations of patients’ nutritional intake.

To augment its capabilities, the system employs Registered Dietitians as co-pilots to review and validate the nutritional assessments, further training the models and ensuring the accuracy of patient data. This innovative interplay between advanced technology and dietitian expertise ensures the most accurate and reliable patient record entries, demonstrating Hologram Sciences' unique approach to improving nutritional monitoring in healthcare settings.

Currently in development for initial application at Mayo Clinic, NuMLM and the Precision Nutrition Platform will draw on Mayo Clinic’s clinical insights through a know-how agreement with the goal of addressing the widespread challenges of malnutrition in surgical recovery and enhancing patient care across multiple disciplines.

NuMLM's precise and timely tracking of patients' nutritional intake is essential for the PNP to suggest appropriate interventions and alert clinical staff. By capturing and analyzing detailed dietary information in real time, NuMLM enables healthcare providers to proactively address potential nutritional issues, thus improving patient outcomes and mitigating the risk of malnutrition-related complications.

Ian Brady, CEO of Hologram Sciences, stated, 'We're addressing a critical gap in patient care and applying AI to a clinical need that will dramatically benefit from personalization at scale. This technology not only outperforms existing models in accuracy but also changes how nutritional intake is assessed, moving from fundamentally inaccurate and manual processes to a highly precise, scalable approach."

Brady added, “Our aim is to apply advanced technology to widespread clinical needs, serving people's wellbeing first and foremost. NuMLM is a step in this direction, providing a valuable utility that can significantly improve patient outcomes by focusing on the essential role of nutrition in the healing process.”

Hologram Sciences envisions this technology becoming an integral part of global healthcare systems, offering scalable, efficient, and patient-centered solutions.
