What CANAREON detects
Physiological deterioration in ICU and high-dependency patients typically precedes clinical crisis by hours. Vital sign time series — heart rate, blood pressure, respiratory rate, SpO₂ — exhibit rising variability and decreasing resilience before the transition becomes visible in aggregate scores. These are measurable instability signatures — the same signals the CANAREON Engine detects in power grids and ecological systems. Applied to multivariate vital sign streams, CANAREON provides a domain-agnostic early warning layer that complements existing clinical scoring systems.

Clinical deployment requires institutional ethics approval and clinical partnership. This module will not be released without independent clinical validation. Estimated timeline: 18–24 months from partnership commencement.
If you are a clinical researcher or healthcare institution interested in partnering on validation, we would welcome a conversation.
