THE PLATFORM
One record. Every clinic.
Any visit. Any district.
Kushé is a mobile-first, offline-capable community health registry built for low-resource health systems. Each patient will carry one record, retrievable at any participating clinic by scanning a card - no internet required.
Card identification
Scan the patient's card. Their record opens - wherever they first registered. No password, no network.
Offline by design
Every module works with no connection. Records sit encrypted on the device and sync when there's signal.
Alerts from their history, not a protocol.
Prior caesarean. Disease flags. Allergies. Shown the moment the record opens.
Data stays in Africa.
Kushé commits to African hosting. Patient data is never sold.
District-level view.
Disease distribution, vaccination coverage, maternal mortality — aggregated, without exposing anyone.
Built to feed DHIS2.
Monthly aggregate export to Sierra Leone's national system is a design requirement, not an add-on.
"Before Kushé, every visit was a new beginning. The clinic had no memory of her. She had to remember everything herself."
The reality for millions of patients across West Africa
Aminata, 28 — HbSS, 24 weeks pregnant, Freetown
Aminata has sickle cell disease. She is 24 weeks pregnant. She has had two prior pregnancies — one normal delivery and one emergency Classical C-section. She sees different clinicians at different facilities depending on which one she can reach and afford on any given day.
Without Kushé: the clinician who sees her today knows none of this. They do not know about the C-section. They do not know she is HbSS. They do not know she is allergic to penicillin — the same medication prescribed routinely for infection in pregnancy.
With Kushé: the clinician scans her QR card. Before they make any clinical decision, the screen shows two alerts — Classical C-section in 2022 and HbSS dual pain management protocol. Her blood pressure trend across five previous visits is visible. Her hydroxyurea compliance is documented.
This is not a technology story. It is a clinical safety story. Kushé is the information that was always needed but never existed.
