Case Study: University of Mississippi Medical Center achieves 66% reduction in late-stage pressure injuries with Jvion's Cognitive Clinical Success Machine

Solving the Healthcare Mystery and Lowering Rates of Pressure Injuries

The University of Mississippi Medical Center faced persistently high rates of late‑stage pressure injuries (stage three, four, and un‑stageable) and launched a renewed initiative in late 2015 to reduce those events. Chief Health Information Officer Dr. John Showalter partnered with vendor Jvion to deploy Jvion’s Cognitive Clinical Success Machine alongside UMMC’s operational best practices to better target at‑risk patients.

Jvion’s Eigen‑based engine delivered real‑time clinical propensities and actionable recommendations across 20,000 inpatient encounters, proving 500% more efficient than the Braden Scale at detecting risk and aligning patients to the most effective interventions. Within three months UMMC saw a 66% reduction in late‑stage pressure injuries and projects nearly $2M in annual savings—results attributed to Jvion’s targeted risk visibility and actionability.
