forneu

forneu is a health technology company that specializes in providing data management and analytics tools for neonatal intensive care units (NICUs). Founded in 2014 by a team of clinicians and software engineers, the organization originated from the need for standardized, real‑time monitoring of newborn care metrics across multiple hospitals. The company’s platform aggregates clinical data from electronic health records, bedside monitors, and laboratory results to generate dashboards that support clinical decision making, quality improvement initiatives, and research studies.

Key features of forneu include a customizable monitoring suite, predictive analytics for risk stratification of preterm infants, and automated compliance reporting aligned with national neonatal care guidelines. The system has been integrated into more than 350 NICUs worldwide and supports data exchange through HL7 and FHIR standards. Forneu also offers training modules for staff and a cloud‑based repository that facilitates multi‑center research collaborations without compromising patient privacy.

The organization has received several industry recognitions, including the 2019 HealthTech Innovation Award and repeated nominations for the EHR Excellence Awards. While generally praised for improving data accessibility, forneu has faced scrutiny over the costs of implementation and the potential for algorithmic bias in predictive models. The company maintains that its models undergo continuous validation and that pilot studies have demonstrated reductions in length of stay and readmission rates among low‑birth‑weight infants.
