AI-Powered Triage Systems Save Lives in Flood Zones
When monsoon flooding cuts off entire districts, the first 48 hours determine survival rates. ENEST has been piloting AI-assisted triage stations that help small field teams prioritize the most urgent cases without waiting for specialist review.
Relief camps routinely see several hundred arrivals a day, handled by a handful of trained responders. Our triage assistant ranks incoming patients on vitals and symptom patterns so the scarcest resource — clinician attention — reaches the highest-risk cases first.
"The responders did not need a machine to be right more often than them. They needed something that never got tired at hour fourteen."
— Kunal Shah, Field Operations Lead
Results From the First Season
Across nine camps, average time-to-treatment for critical cases fell by more than half. Responders reported that the biggest gain was confidence: a structured second opinion in an environment where fatigue drives most errors.
