Intended Use

uAI EasyTriage-Rib is a radiological computer-assisted triage and notification software device for analysis of CT chest images. It assists hospital networks and trained radiologists by flagging and prioritizing trauma studies with suspected three or more acute rib fractures.

Technology

The device uses an artificial intelligence deep learning algorithm trained on medical CT images to detect and flag studies with suspected multiple acute rib fractures. It consists of a server module and a user interface application that provides notifications with compressed preview images for triage purposes. It operates in parallel to standard care without altering original medical images or providing diagnostic conclusions.

Performance

A retrospective, blinded multicenter study on 200 CT chest cases showed the device achieved 92.7% sensitivity and 84.7% specificity for detecting multiple (3 or more) acute rib fractures, with an AUC of 0.939. The time-to-notification was 69.56 seconds, comparable to a predicate device. Performance data support effective triage and notification functionality, demonstrating safety and effectiveness.
