NHS Problem

Parkinson’s disease (PD), dementias and other neurological conditions are growing fast – becoming the world’s largest cause of mortality and morbidity. The prevalence of PD alone has doubled in the last 25 years. This translates to 145,000+ People with Parkinson’s Disease (PwP) and more than 944,000 people with dementia in the UK. Despite these figures, clinicians have few tools to effectively support PwP.

The Solution

Our innovative approach integrates a user-friendly smartphone app and a clinician dashboard with advanced machine learning and artificial intelligence analytics to empower patients and optimise clinical services. A spinout from the University of Oxford that builds on 10 years of research and clinical validation. 

Impact

In the first six months, East Suffolk and North Essex NHS Foundation Trust (ESNEFT) has shown remarkable outcomes, value and longer-term potential using our technology. 

  • Enhanced Clinical Outcomes: Clinicians reported significant improvements in care and clinical outcomes for 90% of patients. 
  • Improved Patient Care: 53% of patients experienced changes in their care, including optimized medication and more appropriate treatment regimens.

  • Efficiency Savings: NHS services saw 20% efficiency savings, enabling more effective care delivery and saving time and money for the health service. 
  • Better Clinician Knowledge: Clinicians’ understanding of their patients improved in 100% of cases, allowing for enhanced care delivery. 
  • Facilitation of Remote Care: The technology enabled patient-initiated follow-ups and remote consultations in approximately 50% of cases.
