Life sciences
Real-world evidence from NHS hospitals.
Live hospital data and clinical AI that help life sciences teams answer research questions, plan trials and improve care.
The challenge
Hospital data holds the detail research is missing.
Most real-world data comes from claims and primary care. The detail of hospital care, from blood tests to vital signs, rarely reaches research. We have changed that.

What we deliver
Delivering evidence across research, trials and care.
Cohort identification
Find and size patient populations using lab results, prescribing and clinic activity, not diagnosis codes alone.
Disease progression
Follow how patients change over years of hospital care, and what comes before deterioration.
Burden of disease
Measure admissions, bed days and treatment in a real NHS population, to inform evidence plans and economic models.
Trial feasibility and patient finding
Understand how many patients meet your inclusion criteria before you commit to a study site.
Guideline-driven care
Bring next best actions from clinical guidelines into the hospital record, where clinicians already work.
Real-world evidence
Patients defined the way trial criteria are written.
Diagnosis codes alone miss many patients. We find them through the measures clinicians use: blood results, prescribing and specialist clinic visits, with codes as supporting evidence.
That gives a clearer picture of who the patients are, how many there are, and how their condition changes over time. It is strongest where tests define the disease, such as kidney, liver, respiratory and rare conditions.
Secure by design
Anonymised data, analysed with the NHS.
Our data comes from emergency, inpatient and outpatient care across five NHS hospitals in South East England, from 2020 to today. It is anonymised, and patient-level data never leaves a secure environment.
We work with the hospital trust on every question, and share only aggregated, de-identified results.
Deeper hospital detail
Lab results, vital signs and clinic follow-up show acuity and progression that claims data cannot.
Always current
A live feed keeps cohorts and models up to date, rather than relying on an old extract.
Governed with the NHS
Run with the trust, under ethics approval, with outputs that are aggregated and de-identified.
End-to-end support
From first question to point of care.
We start with a feasibility check, so you know what the data can answer before you commit. Our team then builds the analysis around your goals, whether that is sizing a population, refreshing a model or choosing trial sites.
Because Sanome also builds MEMORI, certified clinical AI used in NHS hospitals, we can take evidence further: into care pathways that help clinicians act on guidelines at the bedside.

Whether you are sizing a population, planning a trial or building a care pathway, we can help. Tell us what you are working on and our team will be in touch.
