AI for peri-operative teams

Make sure every patient shows up ready for surgery.

Nerva is an AI agent that prepares your patients before they arrive. It reminds them of every instruction, keeps track of the exams they still need, and calls them when it matters. Fewer cancellations, and far less time spent on the phone.

The problem

Operations get cancelled for reasons that have nothing to do with the surgery.

The patient is not ready

Someone who did not fast, did not stop their anticoagulants, or forgot a document cannot be operated on. The slot is lost, and the team scrambles to fill it.

An exam is missing

A blood panel, an ECG, a pre-anesthesia consultation. If one required exam was never booked, the operation stops just as easily.

So a nurse or a secretary spends the day calling patients one by one, hoping nothing slips through. Something usually does.

How it works

Three steps, and the chasing is off your plate.

01

Add the surgery

Enter the patient, the instructions that apply to them, the exams they need, and when each reminder should go out.

02

Nerva runs the campaign

Messages and AI calls go out on schedule. The agent reminds the patient and checks where each exam stands.

03

You stay in control

Every answer comes back to a live dashboard. Missing exams and at-risk patients are flagged before they turn into a cancellation.

What Nerva does

A coordinator that never forgets to follow up.

Reminder campaigns

A sequence of messages and AI calls for each patient, scheduled around the surgery date. You decide the cadence.

Two-way AI calls

The agent does more than leave a message. It asks whether the exams are booked, confirms the patient understood, and writes the answers back on its own.

Exam tracking

Nerva knows which exams are still missing for each patient and keeps nudging until every one is confirmed done.

Safe by design

The agent answers questions about preparation only. Anything medical goes straight back to your team.

Our story

Why we are building Nerva

We spent a while looking closely at how hospitals actually run, and one thing kept standing out. Inside the operating room, everything has been tuned for speed and precision. Around it, the peri-operative workflow has barely moved in years. That gap is where surgeries slip, and where teams lose hours they do not have. We started Nerva to close it, and to rethink the way peri-operative teams work.
