Sintesi del contesto e degli obiettivi generali del progetto

Challenge: Rehabilitating patients with cognitive and upper limb problems from Stroke. Cognitive impairments as in the Neglect Syndrome is not discovered nor treated in suitable time and the normal hospital stay is too short to rehabilitate the patients properly. If the Neglect Syndrome is discovered and treated faster and better than today, the wellbeing of patients will increase. The burden and the costs for their care will be significantly reduced. Around 30% of the 16 Million new stroke patients worldwide per year suffer from the Neglect Syndrome i.e. there are 5-6 million new patients per year.

The long-term goal of this project is to create a successful market introduction and growth path for Brain Stimulation’s innovation.

The conclusion of the phase 1 project is that we have technical, economic and practical feasibility to continue our innovation process.

Lavoro eseguito dall’inizio del progetto fino alla fine del periodo coperto dalla relazione e principali risultati finora ottenuti

We have prepared our Concept for Stroke Home Rehabilitation, test and proof of concept evaluation. RehAtt®-VR has been transferred to the new technical platform HoloLens from Microsoft. A pilot-study have been performed with five volunteers as part of a first Proof of Concept evaluation. The validated VR-DiSTRO® (test-battery) has been used in comparison to the use of conventional Neglect Syndrome tests. Normative diagnostics data have been collected. Potential health economical gains have been identified. A competitor analysis has been done. We have mapped and prioritized potential users, segments and markets. We have elaborated a qualified IPR portfolio strategy including branding of the innovation, freedom to operate and regulatory strategy for Home Rehabilitation. We have made a strategic evaluation of subcontractors and knowledge partners We have made a financial strategy. We have update our business innovation plan.

Progressi oltre lo stato dell’arte e potenziale impatto previsto (incluso l’impatto socioeconomico e le implicazioni sociali più ampie del progetto fino ad ora)

There’s a great interest from leading scientists and Key Opinion Leaders within stroke care. We are likely to add and increase the scale of studies and scientific cooperation’s beyond our expectations. We are likely to find greater line extensions and scientific spin-offs using our know-how and technology. The over-all market potential, impact and Health Economic benefits exceed our initial expectations. The next generation of hardware HoloLens 2 will improve and add new features with increased usability and possibilities. The Market direction is towards e-health and digitalization, homecare and mobile health teams fit our value proposition very good and timing seems correct.
