Project description
Remote treatment for older patients
Elderly patients commonly find it challenging to follow treatment. The EU-funded Klikkit project proposes a telehealth solution to manage elderly adherence to treatment remotely. The solution combines a software platform and Bluetooth enabled smart buttons, designed to remind patients and easily confirm the execution of treatment programmes. One or more Klikkit buttons, each highly visible and different in colour, are directly attached to any element of treatment (such as a pillbox or inhaler) and individually programmed to play distinguishable alerts. Once the patient takes action, the button is pressed, to stop the alarm and report compliance. The solution provides an overview of patients’ adherence on a remote dashboard, enabling care professionals to monitor individual treatment and perform support. Klikkit can be integrated into any health management solution.
Objective
Klikkit combines Bluetooth buttons, a hub (hardware) and a software platform. A set of independent colour-coded buttons allow
end-users to confirm adherence of treatment, e.g. taking pills on time. The buttons are re-programmable and can alert the end-user
by sound at any interval specified.
The button can be directly attached to any type of treatment, e.g. a pill box, a cream, an inhaler or even a water bottle. Any end-user
can use as many buttons as they like. The buttons are designed to be highly visible and alerts are very easy to hear. Each button is
dedicated to a treatment, and the client can name each accordingly via the software platform. The input from the buttons provides
the client with an overview fed into current health management systems on individual treatment adherence. Programming of a
button is as easy as using any smart-phone app. The hub compares to an internet router. It is an install-and-forget device, which
supports stability and ease-of-use of the solution. The software platform can integrate with any health management solution, and
compiles input from the buttons, i.e. patient adherence information. The platform offers overviews of input from end-users
individually, in groups and as a population.
