POC4TRIAGE

Point-of-Care devices for urgent care triage.

The POC4TRIAGE project develops new Point-of-Care (PoC) devices capable of rapidly detecting a patient’s cardiorespiratory or cardiovascular conditions in emergency and critical care settings, and to enable accurate clinical triage by activating real-time data from these devices.

Eurecat participates in the project through its Functional Printing and Embedded Devices Unit, which leads the development of a novel sub-hairline non-invasive EEG-based head caps for rapid stroke diagnosis and a handheld, rapid immunodetector to diagnose stroke.

The Waste, Energy and Environmental Impact (WEEI) Unit is in charge of the life cycle analysis of the developed devices. These devices are integrated into a new Device Hospital Connectivity Platform (DHCP) that visualises data, uses AI from multiple devices to triage and seamlessly integrates with hospital systems and clinical workflows.

POC4TRIAGE project is led by the University of Turku (Finland) and counts on the participation of 19 partners from eleven different countries. This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon Europe research and innovation programme.
