With university origins and longstanding expertise
PEDeus Health AG develops quality-assured clinical decision support systems for the safe use of medicines in everyday clinical practice. The name PEDeus stands for ‘Personalised Evidence-based Decision Support’ – our core competence.
Our current solutions are the result of many years of development: we have been working on the structured presentation of pediatric dosing information since 2007. In 2012, the kinderdosierungen.ch platform was launched, marking the first time a clinical decision support system had been made available to healthcare profession In 2018, PEDeus AG was founded as a spin-off from the University Children’s Hospital Zurich. The web-based tool ‘PEDeDose’ was certified as a Class IIa medical device in 2020 and supports healthcare professionals in the safe and patient-specific dosing of medicines.
Originally developed for paediatrics, PEDeDose has also been available for adult patients since 2025. In particular, dose adjustments – for example, in cases of renal insufficiency – can be calculated easily and reliably. In addition, two further clinical decision support systems – MEDeHelp and PEDeMed – have been developed.
In 2026, the activities of PEDeus AG were transferred to PEDeus Health AG as part of an asset transfer, and PEDeus Health AG is continuing the further development of the clinical decision support systems.
Our vision
PEDeus Health will perfect drug therapy and safety in children and adults through clinical decision support. With the help of innovative web-based tools, healthcare professionals are supported in their decision-making and sick children and adults can be given individually tailored drug dosages.
ISO and MDR certificates confirm our high quality
As a provider of a medical device, it is our concern to meet the highest quality standards. We are therefore pleased that PEDeus has received from the notified body TÜV SÜD both the ISO 13485:2016 Certificate for "Design and Development, Production and Distribution of Clinical Decision Support Software for Healthcare Professionals" and the Quality Management System Certificate according to the EU Regulation on Medical Devices (MDR). Our quality management system thus meets the strict requirements that apply to the medical device industry in Switzerland and the EU.
