Viewing the Canadian model

Product · Clinical knowledge

What is your institution approved to do right now - and is it current?

General references answer the published question. CELSUS answers the local one: your institution's own approved monographs, protocols, and guidelines, version-controlled and governed, reachable by every clinician on mobile or web at the point of care.

What is appropriate position for picc line

Answer

The tip should rest at the superior vena cava to right atrial junction, near the carina, typically at vertebral level T5 to T6. A post-insertion chest film confirms the tip sits above the pericardial reflection before first use.[1]

The governance model

National guidance, adapted locally, current everywhere

National evidence-based guidance flows to institution-level adaptation and unit-level use. When national guidance changes after your last approval, owners see it. The most-local approved version always wins, supporting clinical judgement and institutional autonomy, never replacing them.

National → Institution → Unit

Search you can trust

Grounded answers, or none at all

  • Hybrid search across your approved library
  • Optional AI answer mode grounded only in approved institutional content
  • Every answer cites its source, and says “no source found” rather than generating one
  • Role-gated access with multi-factor authentication throughout
  • Modular by design: enable the modules your institution needs, nothing more

Worked example · One guideline, three tiers

01 / National

Published evidence base

A national society updates its sepsis resuscitation guidance. CELSUS flags the change against every institutional document derived from it.

02 / Institution

Approved adaptation

Your pharmacy and critical care committee reviews the change, adapts thresholds to institutional formulary and pump limits, then approves and publishes version 4.1.

03 / Unit

Most-local wins

The unit holds an approved variant for post-cardiac-surgery patients. Clinicians on that unit see the unit version first, with the institutional version one tap away.

Featured module · Medication & infusion

Your drug manual, out of the intranet and into clinicians' hands

Institution-approved monographs aligned to your smart-pump drug library, replacing desktop-bound parenteral drug manuals, informal reference sheets, and non-local medication apps.

Monographs

Indications, dosing by route, standard and neonatal concentrations, preparation and administration, monitoring, compatibility notes, and clinical warnings, with soft and hard pump limits that match what your pumps enforce.

Resuscitation

Pediatric emergency medications organized by weight-based colour band, with weight ranges and age approximations, built for time-critical reference.

Pharmacy control

Bulk import by CSV or JSON. Every row enters as a draft and publishes only on approval by your designated owners, with version history and audit trail preserved.

Why institutions choose CELSUS

Approved, versioned, current

01 / In-region hosting

Data and AI processing stay inside Canada, designed to align with PIPEDA and the province's health-information act.

02 / No PHI by design

The workflow never asks for patient information. Nothing identifiable is entered, processed, or stored, so privacy review starts simple and stays simple.

03 / Bilingual governance

English and French interface. French clinical versions enter as independently approved, version-controlled documents, never machine translation presented as authoritative.

04 / Governed content

Draft, approve, publish on everything. “What's changed” and “review due” views keep currency visible to owners and clinicians alike.

CELSUS governs the content. CECI answers from it. MINIM writes the record. A clinician signs everything.
