Eddie – smart neurorehabilitation software

Project description

Smart software application for rehabilitation after traumatic brain injuries

Traumatic brain injuries account for an estimated 57 000 deaths and 1.5 million hospital admissions annually in the European Union alone. The treatment requires a complex cognitive rehabilitation approach early on to avoid disorders becoming chronic. The EU-funded Eddie project is developing smart neurorehabilitation software targeting patients at the early stages of treatment to help them restore cognitive functions. The application is based on clinical psychological experience, current state of knowledge in neuroplasticity and prediction models based on machine learning and Big Data analysis. The current phase 1 of the project represents a feasibility study covering technical verification, market research, IP strategy and business plan development.

Objective

Traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) are a major public health, medical, and societal challenge globally. In the European Union
alone, an estimated 57,000 deaths and 1.5 million hospital admissions annually have been attributed to TBI. Hospital
admission rate of 287.2 per 100,000 persons per year.
To avoid a chronic phase of disorders, early, long-term, continual, targeted and complex neurorehabilitation for patients is
highly required. The complex neurorehabilitative approach includes a cognitive rehabilitation from early stages of onset.
Smart neurorehabilitation software Eddie is a project based on clinical psychological experience, current state of knowledge
in neuroplasticity, big data analysing and prediction model based on machine learning and big data analysis. It is the
application aimed at patients from early onset of treatment who need to restore cognitive function and is designed for long
term neurorehabilitation.
Within phase 1 of SME-Instrument we want to elaborate feasibility study with 4 specific objectives -
1. Technical verification – test a prototype of the smart neurocognitive rehabilitation software in connection to the upcoming technologies, such as haptics and bionics provide a user friendly interface for rehabilitation, on healthy people. Secondly to test the application for patients with traumatic brain injury.
2. Market research - to explore markets in selected European countries – Poland, Germany, Austria and Slovakia.
3. Elaborate the IP strategy
4. Prepare the feasibility study including the business plan for Poland, Germany, Austria and Slovakia.
