Objectius

Clinical studies often lack diverse participants, causing knowledge gaps in disease research and treatment effectiveness. Marginalized groups face barriers like mistrust and geographic limitations. REaDI aims to address these issues by integrating stakeholders, providing tools and training for inclusive recruitment, and developing a digital platform. With 40 organizations from 14 EU countries, REaDI will test its solutions through pilot cases to enhance clinical trial inclusivity and sustainability.

Objectius

The main objective of SPINE-Sync is to improve the care journey of paediatric scoliosis patients through a digital platform that promotes organisation across different levels of healthcare, facilitates professional training and communication, and increases health literacy and empowerment of patients and families. Specific objectives (SO):
SO1. Establish a transnational, multi-stakeholder learning community on the scoliosis patient journey (early detection, secondary and tertiary prevention and treatment). SPINE-Sync will build a learning community with healthcare professionals, patients and families from different healthcare systems. It will promote collaboration, knowledge networking and continuous and shared learning.
SO2. Co-design, develop and evaluate the SPINE-Sync platform. SPINE-STEP aims to become a hub for healthcare professionals, patients and families dealing with scoliosis.
The platform will include training resources, health literacy strategies to empower and enable patients and families, and communication channels. The digital platform will consist of three primary interfaces:
1) Professional training to enhance knowledge sharing and promote up-to-date scoliosis practices.
2) Health literacy to empower patients and families by providing reliable and understandable information.
3) Communication and collaboration to facilitate interaction between stakeholders. The evaluation of the relevance and feasibility of SPINE-Sync will include qualitative and quantitative approaches using key indicators such as end-user satisfaction and well-being, adherence and reduction of unnecessary referrals.
SO3. Define the roadmap for integrating the platform into health services. Based on the findings of the co-creation process, SPINE-Sync will plan the integration of the digital platform into mainstream healthcare services as a tool and strategy to facilitate continuity and personalisation of care.

Objectius

The proposal addresses the urgent global epidemic of obesity, impacting billions of individuals worldwide. Obesity significantly elevates the risk of chronic conditions such as type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease, imposing substantial burdens at both individual and community levels, as well as incurring enormous economic costs for healthcare systems.
Current guidelines mainly focus on acute treatment rather than long-term therapy, with important differences based on gender and socioeconomic background. Moreover, traditional community-based health strategies face significant challenges in effectively reaching and supporting vulnerable populations like young individuals, low-income families, and migrants. These challenges significantly contribute to health inequalities and hinder the effectiveness of current programs. This highlights the urgent need for novel multidisciplinary approaches with patient engagement at its core to implement effective prevention strategies. The project aims to develop and implement an innovative and interactive platform (CONNECT-CARE platform) to empower children and adolescents in managing their health and adopting healthier lifestyles. With ground-breaking digital tools at its core, this new platform will go beyond traditional prevention strategies by reshaping the way young individuals’ access and engage with healthcare systems. Through implementing a streamlined and bidirectional user-healthcare interaction as well as introducing an Artificial Intelligence (AI)-assisted personalized obesity management approach, the project will transform how young individuals receive and perceive health messages. To achieve these aims, the project will use data from primary healthcare systems, encompassing clinical, socioeconomic, behavioural, and cultural aspects, to allow for the development of a pan-European Youth Empowerment Hub (YEH), which will harbour all digital tools and resources including the personalized obesity management platform (NutriFit Advisor) and an online educational platform. The YEH will be seamlessly integrated into the healthcare system for a bidirectional interaction between users and health professionals, improving healthcare providers' capacity to deliver services efficiently. The feasibility and effectiveness of the YEH and its digital solutions, will undergo evaluation in two randomized-controlled pilot studies in Spain and Denmark. The implementation of a bidirectional communication platform with AI at its core will serve as a transformative tool, reshaping the relationship between users and healthcare providers. By facilitating seamless interaction, it will enhance healthcare access for users while simultaneously improving service delivery for healthcare providers. Furthermore, the project will establish the AI-assisted NutriFit Advisor as a trusted and reliable tool for young individuals, addressing a critical need for more tailored and effective health interventions. Finally, the emphasis on prevention, supported by better use of tools and data to improve the quality of obesity care, will contribute to more cost-effective and personalised care. In summary, this project will shift the paradigm of healthcare delivery towards more patient-centred and digitally-enabled models transforming health and care in daily life, and ultimately leading to better health outcomes.

Objectius

This project aims to optimise coordination between primary and specialist care to improve home care for children with complex chronic conditions using technology that is tailored to their needs. This is expected to reduce the number of emergency consultations, admissions and average length of stay in hospital.
Specific objectives include
1. To identify the measures that would facilitate the future implementation of this model and technology in other European countries, taking into account the differences in healthcare systems and technological developments.
2. To replicate the coordination model between children's hospitals and primary care centres in other European countries, testing its feasibility, logistics and acceptance from a multi-stakeholder approach (professionals, patients, families, IT teams).
3. To increase the integration of relevant information and digital technologies to achieve better health outcomes in this specific population.
The target population is children with complex chronic conditions and/or palliative care needs at home. Caregivers will be provided with a set of home monitoring devices personalised to each patient's needs to perform the appropriate biomedical measurements at home. Healthcare professionals will develop a shared, individualised care plan for each patient, ensuring that care is participatory, focused on the patient's needs and comprehensive across different levels of the healthcare system. Coordination between primary and specialist levels will be facilitated by a cloud platform that will receive real-time home monitoring data, process this data and generate appropriate alerts in the event of deviations in health parameters. Data from the cloud platform will be available to both levels of care, enabling early intervention to prevent exacerbations and complications according to the shared individualised care plan.
