Every patient has a story buried in the chart. And every day, we hear stories from clinicians about how Evidently unearthed the data that changed the care they delivered.

We built Evidently to help clinicians make sense of the medical record. But the stories we keep hearing from the field go way past where it started — life-threatening conditions hiding in plain sight, families whose care changed because one detail finally surfaced, and clinicians rediscovering why they wanted to practice in the first place. We sat down with our team to share some of the most memorable ones.

HIGHLIGHTS

V-Tach in the Haystack

A mid-30s patient with "anxiety and palpitations" turns out to have an implanted defibrillator and a history of recurrent V-tach — buried in the chart until Evidently surfaced it.

Avoiding ECMO

A child in multisystem organ failure is facing ECMO with 50% survival odds — until a new physician uses Evidently on day one and finds something that changes the plan entirely.

Hidden AFib

A provider's first instinct was to call it an error — but Evidently was right: AFib, documented only on a scanned EKG that no one had ever surfaced.

No One Saw the Heart Failure

45 minutes at the bedside and no one caught it — an ejection fraction of 30% from an echo at an outside facility, found by Evidently after the patient was already admitted.

Forgotten Pancreatic Surgery

"Oh yeah, that was a long time ago." A major surgical history that never came up in 30 minutes of conversation — until Evidently flagged it.

Talk to Me Like a Cardiologist

A cardiologist asks Evidently to translate a complex oncology history into terms they can actually work with — because even physicians sometimes need a translator.

Pneumonia with Alcohol Use

Admitted for pneumonia, stable and conversant — but Evidently flagged alcohol use that never came up in the interview, changing the entire order set overnight.

A 25 Year Old IVC Filter

Recurrent sepsis, admitted and discharged over and over — until Evidently surfaced a forgotten IVC filter that had been seeding infections the entire time.

“What Did I Miss?”

The question every clinician takes home with them — and how a second set of eyes is helping providers finally put it to rest.

Ask Evidently has been a game-changer for our providers. It empowers clinicians with a chat tool that has already read the patient chart, letting them spend more time asking important questions and less time on exhausting chart biopsy. And it aligns with our goals at Allina Health to provide effective and efficient experiences for our patients.”
