Be Sure Online

Opschaling

BeSure is digital platform for stroke prevention and rehabilitation. Using wearable devices, IoT and medical equipment, platform gathers information about patients conditions, including physiological data as well as data related to daily activities. BeSure makes real-time analysis of leading health indicators in order to predict the onset of emergent situations. Product provides an effective interactive dashboard for healthcare providers and family members, which helps them clearly understand the patient's condition at any time and any place.
The goal of the project is to reduce risks of first/recurrent heart/brain stroke/attack, helping patients to feel more engaged in their healthcare, cared for and safe.
The key customers of the platform are insurance companies, pension funds and other healthcare payers. They can dramatically reduce their costs by having daily monitoring data of their clients.

Probleemstelling

Stroke is a major cause of hard long-term disability in Western societies, and the third cause of death. EU averages approximately 650,000 stroke deaths each year, 1/3 after recurrent attack.
Stroke ranked second on the list of most costly diseases for the elderly. The prevention and treatment of stroke in the EU is often not optimal: many patients stay in hospital too long without medical necessity, waiting to be discharged to a rehabilitation centre or for home care. As a result, up to 30% of stroke treatment costs are excessive.
Total annual cost of stroke is estimated at €27 - 29 billion in EU and about 65 billion in The US, and these amounts are expected to increase with the aging of population. In the Netherlands, about 400 mln EURO is spent annually for cost treatment. In order to reduce these costs and ensure healthy, active and independent life for elderly, both payers and healthcare providers have to find new ways to monitor, diagnose and prevent stroke.

Innovative concepts

 Project uncovers new ways of patients data collection and analysis using wearable devices and IoT;
 Real-time data stream and analytic tools of the platform create for healthcare providers new opportunities to adjust treatment plans more effectively, make better diagnostics and prevent emergent situations;
 Based on monitoring information, insurers/payers could create new health plans, develop new business and financial models. More accurate forecasts may decrease the emergency and hard conditions expenses, that will significantly affect on the insurance premiums in the future;
 Taking part in the project, patients feel themselves more cared, involved in their health care, motivated for healthy lifestyle and following prevention/treatment plans. As a result, treatment become much more effective.

Productontwikkeling

Designed for stroke prevention, data analytic and prediction module of the platform could be used for other disease monitoring and prevention, such as other cardiovascular and neurological diseases.
