Cansera

Give Your Doctor a Movie, Not a Snapshot

Every 3 weeks, a cancer patient in chemotherapy spends about 8 minutes with their doctor. The data from the following 30,000 minutes is completely lost. We aim to quantify and utilize that data to provide better care.

Comprehensive Data Leads to Better Decisions

Precision PS is a clinical trial that uses an IoT approach to quantify a patient’s performance status by comparing lontitudinal data with physician assessed performance status. This is our first step in utilizing the other 30,000 minutes.

Objectively Measuring Performance

Cansera combines the Microsoft Kinect, wearable activity trackers, blue-tooth enabled scale, and electronic patient reported outcomes to give comprehensive information. We collect data through clinical trials of outpatient monitoring with IoT devices and 3D-motion-capture of performance tests.

REMOTE PATIENT MONITORING

A Continuous Monitoring Approach to Patient Care

We are using a whole range of interconnected sensors and devices to continually monitor the well-being of patients. With data collected from symptom monitoring and objective measures, we can create a safety net for cancer patients at home.

Enable Remote Clinical Trials

Exploratory analysis from our previous clinical trial suggests that lower average nonsedentary hours (measured using wrist-worn activity trackers) were associated with higher unplanned healthcare encounters (UHE). PS assessment in men was improved with the addition of patient reported outcomes (PRO). In women, body weight was the best predictor of unexpected medical events.

Let’s Share This Data with the People in Control.

Patients know their health best. With the right tools, they can make the best use of their medical data, helping themselves and the community.
