Innovation: MediShout

Ash is an Orthopaedic Surgeon training at Imperial College London. While he has worked in the NHS for a decade, his passion for trauma and “fixing broken bones” has also taken him to work in South Africa and Malawi, where he operated as a World Orthopaedic Concern Fellow. He is an advocate of surgical education and has created international teaching programmes for trauma.

Ash founded MediShout after witnessing hospital infrastructure and logistical problems preventing best patient care, for example, when he had to cancel operations due to a broken theatre light bulb or had an anaesthetised patient waiting while he was fixing a faulty printer. MediShout solves this healthcare problem by providing the world’s first digital platform to integrate all logistical departments; giving clinicians an app to instantly report any issue while using artificial intelligence (AI) to predict future problems e.g. broken equipment, faulty IT.
