Description du projet
Une méthode non invasive pour mesurer la pression intracrânienne
L’hypertension intracrânienne est un état critique survenant après une maladie ou un traumatisme cérébral qui peut provoquer de graves lésions cérébrales et même la mort. La méthode standard actuelle pour surveiller cet état est une procédure invasive et très complexe, qui nécessite de percer un trou dans le crâne avec cathétérisme des ventricules cérébraux, exposant les patients à un risque élevé de complications. StatuManu a développé une méthode non invasive pour mesurer les variations de pression intracrânienne avec une grande précision et exactitude pour des applications potentielles dans la pratique clinique. Cette procédure simple permet d’obtenir un enregistrement vidéo du fond de l’œil (la doublure intérieure du globe oculaire) à l’aide de caméras et une analyse plus approfondie par un logiciel unique, capable de fournir un résultat en moins d’une minute. Le projet ICPstatu, financé par l’UE, contribuera à l’élaboration d’un plan d’affaires complet, notamment un modèle commercial compatible avec l’expansion et la croissance du marché.
Objectif
Elevated IntraCranial Pressure (ICP) is a critical condition derived from diseases or brain trauma. If not treat promptly
elevated ICP can cause severe damage on the brain or even death. The gold-standard method to monitor ICP is an invasive
and highly complex procedure, which requires drilling a hole in the cranium and proper insertion of catheters in the brain
ventricles, exposing the patients to high risk of complications, such as infections and haemorrhage. Due to the high
complexity of the procedure and need of expertise, it is very often applied too late, hampering early diagnosis and successful
treatments. StatuManu has developed the first non-invasive method to measure variations of ICP with adequate accuracy
and precision to be accepted in clinical practices. It is a very user-friendly procedure, consisting of recording a video of the
eye fundus by off-the-shelf fundus cameras and further analysis by our software (cloud-based) hosting our unique algorithm
capable to deliver a result in less than 1min.
StatuManu software will greatly benefit: 1) Healthcare professionals (end-users) by having a decision support tool based on
early and accurate assessment of ICP variations, 2) healthcare institutions (customers) by improving services workflow and
physicians decision making, saving costs and offering higher quality care; 3) patients by having access to a faster, accurate
and non-invasive assessment (anytime, anywhere, whenever needed), and consequently early treatments.
ICPstatu project will enable the development of a comprehensive business plan, including a business model compatible with
market expansion and growth. We are supported by clinical development partners and our team has the right combination of
expertise in image analysis, deep learning, software development and business to perform this project and fulfill all the
needs and requests of end-users and customers and benefiting the society as whole.
