Proposed end-to-end pathway
How It Will Work
How PathPal is intended to move from evidence to action.
The complete pathway is not yet a finished deployed product. It is the development model PathPal is intended to test and refine with veterinary users.
1. Record the mortality event
Capture animal identity, clinical history, herd context, post-mortem findings, photographs and observations in a structured case.
2. Connect the diagnostic evidence
Record samples, requested investigations, destination laboratories and returned results so the diagnostic journey stays attached to the original case.
3. Confirm and structure
Use clinician-reviewed structured information alongside free text so records remain clinically meaningful while becoming more comparable across cases.
4. Explore mortality patterns In development
Assess whether aggregated case data can highlight repeated causes, cohort changes, temporal patterns or other signals that merit veterinary review.
5. Support veterinary interpretation In development
Present the pattern together with the underlying cases and evidence so a veterinary professional can determine whether the signal is meaningful.
6. Translate intelligence into herd-health action In development
Support the vet in communicating findings to the farmer, agreeing proportionate next steps and observing whether the pattern changes after intervention.
