What is ferrer 4 FUTURE Program?
ZeroVNP免费下载

We at Ferrer believe that digital health is about putting patient’s needs first and developing digital solutions across the patient care value chain (physicians, caregivers, payers, hospitals and so on) to address those needs in a manner that enhances the patient’s human experience. We also recognize that the knowledge and experience of pharma companies needs to be balanced with the creativity and agility of start-ups and small businesses.
 
Through superⅴpn下载apk program, we aim to create a platform for collaboration between start ups and us to explore digital health solutions together that can build healthier societies.

Movement disorders are characterized by multiple manifestations including but not limited to difficulty moving (walking), speaking and swallowing, twitching or jerking movements, even convulsions, that sometimes can be accompanied by loss of consciousness.1 Because the warning signs of a crisis are not always present or reliably perceived by the patient, there is a need for sensors (wearable, implantable or patch among others) that could detect the warning signs. In this way, the patient would be alerted to an upcoming episode, thereby enabling the patient to take proactive steps such the intake of a medication with fast onset of action.

Challenge

Can we use digital technologies to find a reliable way to predict if a patient is going to have a movement crisis early enough such that the patient is able to take pre-emptive action? Please note that warning signs indicating that a crisis is imminent may include ‘aura’ (pro-drom), psychic symptoms, auditory hallucinations, olfactory hallucinations, numbness, anxiety among others. The solution should allow patients to continue their normal lives with no to minimal interference and may involve all relevant stakeholders in the patient care value chain.

Overview

Patients suffering from a cognitive and behavioural disorders with a neurological involvement, regardless of whether it has neurodevelopmental1 (ASD, ADHD, NLD,…), neurodegenerative2 (Alzheimer, dementia,..), brain injuries, or tumours origins, heavily rely on their caregivers and therapists for support on daily chores. Typically, therapeutical assistance goes to task for rehabitation of impairments as:  vision loss, visuospatial or balance disorders, verbal expression and communicative difficulties, attention or memory deficits, or effective and social skills problems. Digital solutions for these disorders currently focus on cognitive stimulation through games and tests, while solutions that reduce patients’ dependence from caregivers and therapists between patient and doctor, as well as a better quality of life.

Challenge

We would be looking at solutions that allow patients to connect with and leverage relevant stakeholders, to offer more personalized and intensive treatments, to achieve more independence and improved relationships. Can we use digital technologies to help patients with cognitive and behavioural disorders to improve social adaptation, and vital expectations, while reducing their reliance on caregivers and improving their quality of life?

1. The first sub-challenge concerns adult patients with alterations in brain functions due to degenerative processes (dementia, Alzheimer's...), cerebrovascular accidents (ABI), traumas (accidents) or tumour processes. The solution would have to include cognitive rehabilitation or behavioural reeducations programs or treatments to improve their adaptabilities skills and so their performance in life.

2. The second sub-challenge is oriented towards neurodevelopmental disorders (including but not limited to autism spectrum disorders, hyperactivity and attention deficits, language disorders, among others) in children & adults. The solution would be a digital approach for rehabilitation interventions for cognitive impairment attention focus, memory, learning and language development, social skills) and for the associated behavioural or emotional disorders it may also be a treatment of related symptoms (aggressiveness, negativity).

Pain is a psychosomatic response dependent on an objective component (the strength of sensory signal sent to the brain) and a subjective component (a combination of cognitive, emotional and behavioural response) that affects how the pain is perceived and reported.1 As a result, not only patient’s response to pain medication is highly variable but patient’s self-reporting of pain may also be erratic and unreliable making it difficult for the doctor to decide on optimal drug dosage.2 This challenge aims at finding digital technologies for optimal dose-adjustment of pain medications, including opioid treatments, where there is a need to guarantee enough comfort to the patient while reducing the risk of adverse events.

Challenge

Can we improve pain management of patients, including those that rely on opioids, using digital technologies? Can we help doctor-patient relationship and communication by objectivizing reporting of pain? The solution should present a systematic and measurable approach to pain management involving all relevant stakeholders.

1. The first sub-challenge looks at how to predict, detect and reduce opioid misuse to prevent dosage escalation? The solution would involve monitoring the actual dose (i.e. surrogate marker for the concentration of drug in the patients’s body) vs. the actual need of the patient (i.e. captured through digital pain biomarkers). The goal being to ensure that the patient is not under-treated and, at the same time, is not bearing pain.

Improve Care
for chronic patients

Deadline: 20/12/2023
Challenge Owner

Eloi Torcal
Corporate product manager
Claudia Roca
Corporate marketing manager

Overview

Patients who suffer from severe chronic illnesses are often reliant on care givers in order to their maintain quality of life. This loss of freedom coupled with an already stressed care system in many parts of the world leads to a challenging life for many patients.

For example, PAH (Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension) patients currently have a bleak outlook as the disease is progressive and without cure. Patients live an average of 7-10 year from diagnosis and gradually see their mobility decreased. Patients eventually have to rely on continuous infusion pump therapy1 and are completely reliant on their support network (i.e. family members, doctors, nurses and physicians).

Challenge

How can we improve care, for chronic patients such as those suffering from advanced PAH symptoms and reduce the burden on their support network using digital solutions?

  1. Can we better track and monitor patients through a digitally enhanced solution?
  2. Can we provide guidance and troubleshoot common issues for patients digitally?
  3. Can we complement the patient support network, which is primarily face to face, though digital means?
  4. Can we help patients cope with pain and emotional distress using digital technologies?
  5. Can we reduce frequent patient visits to care centres for medicine collection and related tests?
1 Continuous pump therapy involves patients receiving a continuous dosage of drug(on a 24/7 basis) through a subcutaneous or implantable pump. Please click on each type to see an example.

Overview

Half of the patients suffering from silent chronic cardiovascular diseases (CVD) stop taking their medication within 3 months of being diagnosed.1 The silent CVDs include coronary artery diseases, diabetes, cholesterol, hypertension and patients who are at an increased risk of heart attack and stoke (due to a previous event) and are now the leading cause of death.

In order for a person to take an action, three things need to happen first according to Dr. BJ Fogg (a psychologist and founder of Stanford Persuasive Technology Lab). First, the person needs to be motivated to perform the action. Second, the person needs to have the ability to perform that action. Finally, the person needs to have a trigger or a prompt which initiates the action2.

Most of the medical adherence solutions tend to focus on triggers through reminder applications etc. however the majority of non-adherence issues arise from lack of motivation or ability.

How can we improve medication adherence using digital technologies for chronic patients suffering from silent CVDs so that they can live longer and healthier lives?

  1. Can we better motivate patients to adhere to medication?
  2. Can we increase the ability of patients to adhere to medication?
  3. Can we find novel and non intrusive ways to trigger people to take their medication?

Overview

Pain that a patient feels has two components: the objective component which is primarily the sensory response including the strength of signal sent to the brain and a subjective component which is a combination of cognitive, emotional and behavioural response that affects how the pain is perceived and reacted to. 1

The four responses (sensory, cognitive, emotional and behavioural) together create and modulate the intensity of pain felt by patients. Because pain is both physiological and psychological (i.e. psychophysiological) and hence personal to the individual, the current method of treatment which is somewhat generic and primarily focused on physiological aspects (i.e. sensory response) leaves a lot of room for improvement.

极光vpm破解无限版

How can we help patients suffering from chronic pain using digital solutions that enable them to have a better quality of life?

  1. Can we find a better and more objective way for patients to communicate the intensity of pain felt with doctors? Use cases: regular clinical practice, clinical trials, etc.
  2. Can we deliver targeted pain therapies digitally to patients leveraging one or more of the four responses above to reduce pain and dependence on drugs?
  3. Can we help patients, doctors and caregivers better track and monitor pain using digital technologies?
  4. Can we leverage digital technologies to build more connected pain therapy devices? Example: TENS 2
