GE HealthCare has launched a new cloud-based platform aimed at improving the delivery of clinical insights to streamline maternal and foetal care.
The medtech giant’s CareIntellect for Perinatal is available via a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) model and unites disparate clinical sources in a single location, thereby simplifying clinicians’ ability to monitor status, annotate clinical events, search historical data, and remotely monitor patients.

GE HealthCare notes that the app enables clinicians to quickly review patient status without the typically time-consuming, manual review processes typically involved in synthesising multiple data streams to understand patient status.
The new platform integrates maternal and foetal vital statistics including uterine activity, blood pressure, foetal heart rate, and maternal SpO2. According to GE HealthCare, with a unified, chronological view of such metrics, the app will reduce administrative burden and help care teams to focus more fully on patient care.
CareIntellect for Perinatal has been developed alongside HCA Healthcare, with the ‘clinical voice’ informing “every stage of development” to help ensure relevance and impact at the point of care, according to Jeff Caron, GE HealthCare’s chief digital and technology officer for patient care solutions.
“We believe this tool has the potential to provide a new level of support for our clinicians,” said Dr Owen Solad, VP of clinical AI, digital transformation & innovation at HCA Healthcare.
“The goal is to support seamless integration into their workflow, delivering actionable insights directly at the point of care – all while upholding our commitment to patient safety,” Solad added.
CareIntellect for Perinatal becomes the second cloud-first platform application available via GE HealthCare’s CareIntellect toolkit following the launch of its inaugural offering, CareIntellect for Oncology, in October 2024. Running on a shared cloud infrastructure hosted by Amazon Web Services (AWS), the platform organises structured and unstructured oncology data such as medical images, records, and notes.
Other big players in the medtech space that have partnered with AWS include Phillips. In November 2024, the Netherlands-based company expanded its partnership with AWS to situate its HealthSuite diagnostics portfolio on the cloud.
