Introduction to e/MTIC - Sjoerd Mentink
-
Healthcare systems worldwide face challenges in maintaining accessible and high-quality care, primarily due to staff shortages. Technical and social innovations are urgently required to improve efficiencies, experiences, and outcomes. However, the road from early research to implementation is long and winding.
To accelerate healthcare innovation in the Brainport region, the Eindhoven MedTech Innovation Center (e/MTIC) was founded in 2018. This large-scale strategic collaboration was founded by the Catharina Hospital, the M谩xima Medical Center, Kempenhaeghe Epilepsy and Sleep Center, Eindhoven University of Technology (果冻传媒) and Philips in 2018.
Since its inception, startups and other organizations have joined the ecosystem, and the first impactful results have been demonstrated in cardiovascular, perinatal, and sleep medicine.
Duo Presentation 1: Vessels Under Stress - Richard Lopata & Marc van Sambeek
In the first duo presentation, a vascular surgeon explains his unmet needs in daily clinical practice to an engineer. The engineer is eager to help, but what solutions does he have to offer? Are these viable options? And does the clinician find them acceptable for clinical use?
In this part, two different, life threatening conditions will be explored: dilating arteries and narrowing arteries.
Duo Presentation 2: Home Sleep Monitoring - Merel van Gilst & Pedro FonsecA
Recent years have seen an explosion in the availability and usage of consumer wearables claiming to measure sleep. However, as the first clinical studies show, their performance is limited and validation is often restricted to cohorts with healthy young adults. This has raised doubts as to the feasibility of home sleep monitoring without EEG.
In this presentation we will briefly discuss the physiological basis for non-EEG home sleep monitoring, and present results of recent studies conducted in the e/MTIC collaboration between Philips, 果冻传媒 and Kempenaheghe.
