ARIA for Healthcare

Clinical workflows and patient safety systems without compromising data privacy.

Autonomy & Control Model

AI does not execute actions by default. AriaOS operates in Human-In-The-Loop (HITL) mode unless a constrained autonomy profile is explicitly enabled.

  • Human approval is required for all actions unless constrained autonomy is explicitly configured
  • Autonomous execution is profile-gated, policy-enforced, and continuously audit-verified
  • See Autonomy Model for execution mode details

What Breaks Under Stress

Hospital IT departments face constant pressure to adopt cloud-based clinical decision support, predictive analytics, and AI-assisted diagnostics. But sending patient data to third-party cloud services creates HIPAA compliance risk, data sovereignty concerns, and operational fragility when internet connectivity fails.

Clinical workflows stall when cloud AI tools go offline. Bed management and patient tracking systems lose synchronization. Post-incident review reveals incomplete audit trails and undocumented clinical decisions.

Why Traditional Architectures Fail Here

  • Cloud-based AI tools create HIPAA compliance and data sovereignty risks
  • Clinical decision support systems require persistent internet connectivity
  • Predictive analytics and patient risk scoring fail during network outages
  • Bed management and patient flow optimization rely on centralized cloud services
  • Audit trails for clinical decisions are fragmented across multiple SaaS platforms
  • Manual failover to paper records creates synchronization delays and data loss

What ARIA Enforces Instead

Offline-First Execution

Clinical workflows, patient tracking, and decision support continue without internet connectivity. Patient data stays on-premises.

Profile-Gated Control

Access to patient records and controlled substances is governed by role and HIPAA policy. Emergency overrides require written justification.

Immutable Audit

Every clinical decision, medication administration, and patient transfer is logged with tamper-evident timestamps for HIPAA compliance.

AI Advisory (Intent, Not Autonomy)

AI suggests clinical pathways, risk assessments, and resource allocation strategies. Clinicians authorize all actions.

How ARIA Fits

ARIA sits between hospital EHR/PACS systems and clinical devices (monitors, infusion pumps, imaging equipment). It does not replace existing healthcare IT infrastructure. It coordinates clinical workflows, patient tracking, and decision support when cloud connectivity is unavailable or prohibited by data sovereignty requirements.

Deployment Notes

  • No replacement of existing EHR, PACS, or hospital management platforms
  • Works in air-gapped environments or with limited internet connectivity
  • Patient data stays on-premises for HIPAA and data sovereignty compliance
  • Integrates with HL7 FHIR, DICOM, IHE standards, and proprietary hospital systems

Operational Characteristics

  • No-login operation after setup: clinicians authenticated once per shift
  • Deterministic behavior under degradation: no probabilistic clinical recommendations without explicit uncertainty bounds
  • Explainability by design: AI recommendations include clinical reasoning and confidence levels
  • Offline patient matching, deduplication, and risk scoring using local databases
  • State synchronization resumes automatically when connectivity is restored (if configured)

Clinical Resilience Research

AriaOS is currently in a dedicated research phase focused on validating execution, governance, and recovery behavior under healthcare-relevant failure conditions. These include network degradation, system isolation, sustained operational stress, and audit continuity during partial outages.

This work is not a deployment, procurement, or commercialization initiative. It is applied research designed to surface failure modes and recovery limits before they appear in clinical environments.

The research focuses on understanding how safety-critical systems behave when assumptions fail, including how decisions are executed, recorded, and recovered under pressure without reliance on continuous connectivity.

We are collaborating with research institutions, healthcare operators, and infrastructure partners to conduct this validation on dedicated hardware under controlled conditions.

Research collaborators receive empirical artifacts suitable for internal review and safety analysis, including logs, traces, recovery timelines, and governance records.

Additional technical materials related to this research are shared directly for organizations evaluating participation or alignment.
